This etext was produced by David Widger
"Lord Ormont and His Aminta — Volume 3" by George Meredith is a novel written during the late 19th century, reflecting the societal norms and interpersonal dynamics of its time. The story revolves around the complex relationships of its characters, notably Lord Ormont and his wife, Aminta, as well as other figures from their social circle. Themes of honor, pride, and the distinctions of social classes are intricately intertwined, setting the stage for a narrative filled with both personal and societal challenges. The opening of the novel introduces a lively dining scene where characters like Lord Ormont, his wife Aminta, and Mrs. Lawrence discuss an intriguing letter from some schoolboys, which reveals a tale of heroism by children from their school. This letter sparks debate over bravery and societal responsibility, providing insight into each character's personality — particularly Lord Ormont's stoicism and Aminta's emotional responses. The atmosphere combines humor and tension, as the characters navigate their social roles while hinting at deeper undercurrents of loyalty and respect. This rich introduction sets the groundwork for exploring the evolving dynamics of love and social expectation as the story unfolds. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
