| Abstract | "This second edition appears just in time for the 2019 bicentenary of George Eliot's birth. It includes several new chapters, providing an essential introduction to all aspects of Eliot's life and writing. Accessible essays by some of the most distinguished scholars of Victorian literature provide lucid and often original insights into the work of one of the most important writers of the Nineteenth Century. From an introduction that traces her originality as a realist novelist, the book moves on to extensive considerations of each of Eliot's novels, of her and her publishing history. Chapters address the problems of money, philosophy, religion, politics, gender and science, as they are developed in her novels. With its supplementary materials, including a chronology and an extensive section of suggested readings, this Companion is an invaluable tool for scholars and students alike"-- Provided by publisher. |
