Reseña:  With an Introduction and Notes by Dr Claire Seymour University of Kent at Canterbury. Under the Greenwood Tree is Hardys most bright confident and optimistic novel. This delightful portrayal of a picturesque rural society tinged with gentle humour and quiet irony established Hardy as a writer. However the novel is not merely a charming rural idyll. The double-plot in which the love story of Dick Dewey and Fancy Day is inter-related with a tragic chapter in the history of Mellstock Choir hints at the poignant disappearance of a long-lived and highly-valued traditional way of life.
