Summary "Matthew Arnold" by George Saintsbury is a literary biography written in the early 20th century. The book explores the life and works of Matthew Arnold, a significant poet and literary figure of the 19th century, focusing on his contributions to poetry and criticism. It provides insights into Arnold's upbringing, his literary development, and the influences that shaped his work, while also delving into the critical reception of his poetry. The opening of the book establishes an authoritative tone, detailing the limited public biographical data available on Arnold, primarily drawing from his own letters. Saintsbury reflects on the lack of detailed accounts of Arnold's early literary efforts, sharing glimpses of his life shaped by the legacy of his father, Dr. Thomas Arnold, and his education at Rugby and Oxford. It sets the stage for a deep dive into Arnold's formative years, his evolving literary voice, and the cultural context of his writing, which significantly shaped English literature during his time.
