"Style and the Man" by Meredith Nicholson is an essay collection published in the early 20th century. This work explores the concept of literary style, discussing its significance in writing and how it affects both authors and readers. The author delves into the nuances of language and expression, positing that style is a deeply individual and intrinsic quality that cannot be easily taught or replicated. In this thoughtful discourse, Nicholson navigates through various aspects of literary style, referencing notable writers such as Hawthorne, Arnold, and Stevenson to illustrate his points. He emphasizes that style is not merely a superficial aspect of writing but is connected to the truth and emotional resonance of the text. Nicholson engages with the idea that every great writer possesses a distinctive voice, which reflects their personality and perspective. Through his observations, he highlights how different styles can evoke different emotions and connect with readers in various ways, ultimately arguing that the richness of language is essential for capturing the intricacies of human experience.
