Tremaine V1-2: Or The Man Of Refinement (1836) is a two-volume novel written by Robert Plumer Ward. The story follows the life of George Selwyn, a wealthy and privileged young man who is bored with his life of luxury and seeks a more meaningful existence. He decides to travel to Europe and explore the cultural and intellectual world of the continent. Along the way, he meets a variety of characters, including artists, writers, and philosophers, and engages in lively discussions about politics, religion, and society.As George travels through Europe, he becomes increasingly disillusioned with the decadence and superficiality of the aristocracy and begins to embrace more radical ideas about social reform. He falls in love with the beautiful and intelligent Lady Edith, but their relationship is threatened by their differing views on politics and society.The novel is a reflection on the changing social and political landscape of early 19th century Europe, as well as a critique of the excesses of the aristocracy. It is also a romance, with a complex and engaging love story at its heart. Ward’s writing is elegant and sophisticated, and his characters are well-drawn and complex. Tremaine V1-2: Or The Man Of Refinement is a fascinating and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique insight into the intellectual and cultural world of early 19th century Europe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
