The Tragic Comedians is a novel written by George Meredith, first published in 1880. The story is set in mid-nineteenth century England and revolves around the lives of a group of artists and intellectuals. The main characters are two painters, Felix and Gower, who are friends but have very different personalities. Felix is a passionate and impulsive artist, while Gower is more reserved and analytical. They both fall in love with the same woman, a beautiful and mysterious actress named Miriam. The novel explores the themes of love, jealousy, betrayal, and the conflict between art and society. It also touches on social issues such as the role of women in Victorian society and the tension between the aristocracy and the working class. The Tragic Comedians is considered one of Meredith's most complex and challenging works, with its intricate plot and dense prose. It has been praised for its psychological depth and its exploration of the human condition.Clotilde attempted an answer: it would not come. She tried to be revolted by his lording tone, and found it strangely inoffensive. His lording presence and the smile that was like a waving feather on it compelled her so strongly to submit to hear, as to put her in danger of appearing to embrace this man's rapid advances.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
