Overview

"The Way They Lived Then" by Taylor Prewitt is a critical examination and analysis written in the early 21st century. The work delves into the themes, characters, and moral lessons found in the novels of Anthony Trollope, exploring the social dynamics and feminist undertones present in his narratives. The text appears to serve both as an appreciation for Trollope's storytelling and as a contemporary reflection on the societal issues he portrayed, particularly concerning women and the church. At the start of the volume, the author sets the stage by recounting a gathering of Trollope enthusiasts at a dinner hosted by the Trollope Society. The introduction emphasizes the lasting legacy of Trollope's works, highlighting the author's writing habits and the often-overlooked depth of his female characters. Prewitt notes the resurgence of interest in Trollope's novels, indicating how their commentary on Victorian society remains relevant. The opening portions also hint at the book's structured approach: it lists various sections addressing key works by Trollope, setting up the exploration of themes such as serious interviews, social class, and the experiences of strong women within the context of Trollope's characters.
