"Bulwer-Lytton was a prolific writer….His novels were very famous in his lifetime, and their range is an indication of the literary variety and changes in the Victorian period. He was a friend of the philosopher William Godwin whose influence can be traced in his early novels such as Paul Clifford (1830) and Eugene Aram (1832). He was also influenced by the fashionable society and it is reflected in his first successful work Pelham, which has a similarity to Benjamin Disraeli's political novels of high society….The literary output produced during the mid of his career such as The Caxtons - A Family Picture was written under the influence of the strict Victorian moral code. He showed the influence of Sir Walter Scott on the Victorian in his historical novel such as The Last Days of Pompeii, Rienzi, and The Last of the Barons while The Pilgrims of the Rhine shows the German influence." -The Atlantic Companion to Literature in English "The first nineteenth-century novelist to project himself as an intellectual, interested in ideas, and how fiction can be their vehicle." -John Sutherland. "We love the beautiful and serene, but we have a feeling as deep as love for the terrible and dark." - Edward Bulwer-Lytton
