Thomas Love Peacock (1785 - 1866) was a linguist and scholar who spent much of his working life as an influential official of the East india Company. He had a wide circle of literary friends, which included Coleridge and Shelley, and his early works were poems, some of considerable length. In 1815 his first novel, Headlong Hall, was published, and between that year and 1831 he published a further five novels. His final completed novel, Gryll Grange, was written in 1860 and published the following year. Peacock also produced a number of articles on literary and historical subjects, and some other long poems, which have faded into obscurity.
