درباره محمدعلي حزين لاهيجي و آثارش پژوهشهايي صورت گرفته است. اما، هنوز جاي تحقيق درباره زواياي ناشناخته حيات وي وجود دارد. در مقاله حاضر به مسايلي چون چگونگي اوضاع زمانه او، وضع اجتماعي و اقتصاديش، تاثير آن بر زندگاني و مهاجرتش، و نيز افكارش درباره هند (1180- 1146 ق) پرداخته شدهاست. يافتههاي اساسي اين تحقيق كه به روش تاريخي صورت گرفتهاست، مدلل ميدارد كه حزين از چهرههاي فرهنگي عصر خود بوده كه به دليل تغيير شرايط سياسي ايران، ناچار به ترك آنجا و عزيمت به هند شدهاست. وي از جمله پيشگامان منتقدين اوضاع ايران و هند عصر خود است و نگاهي ستايشآميز به فرنگ دارد.
