Àííîòàöèÿ: People glorify all sorts of bravery except the bravery they might show on behalf of their nearest neighbours.` An epic study of provincial life at a time when England was facing rapid industrialization and increasingly fluid social mobility, Eliot`s depiction of the small community of Middlemarch weaves an intricate web of different characters disparate lives as they strive to adapt to the changing world around them. Eliot was one of the first of her female contemporaries to write a novel that dealt with real-life issues and complex yet ordinary human life

Àííîòàöèÿ: Felix Holt is a novel that examines the central relationship between politics and tradition, and in doing so sounded the storm warnings of cultural alarm. The problem of social continuity was one that exercised George Eliot greatly. Her concern that change (at the time she was writing, the Second Reform Bill was about to be passed) should come about out of man s passion, feeling and desires, rather than being imposed by sterile political edict, is one that infuses the novel. By contrasting the lives of two women - Mrs Transome unbending and bloodless, a woman who embodies the worst elements of the past; and Esther, who fights free of her Transome connection in order to face the future with Felix, whose politics and attitudes embody a vital, creative future - she achieves both a personal drama and political debate in a novel that is an imaginative and organic tour de force.

Àííîòàöèÿ: The works collected in this volume provide an illuminating introduction to George Eliot's incisive views on religion, art and science, and the nature and purpose of fiction.

Àííîòàöèÿ: We believe in her as in a woman we might providentially meet some fine day when we should find ourselves doubting of the immortality of the soul wrote Henry James of Dorothea Brooke, who shares with the young doctor Tertius Lydgate not only a central role in Middlemarch but also a fervent conviction that life should be heroic. By the time the novel appeared to tremendous popular and critical acclaim in 1871-2, George Eliot was recognized as England s finest living novelist. It was her ambition to create a world and portray a whole community-tradespeople, middle classes, country gentry-in the rising provincial town of Middlemarch, circa 1830. Vast and crowded, rich in narrative irony and suspense, Middlemarch is richer still in character, in its sense of how individual destinies are shaped by and shape the community, and in the great art that enlarges the reader s sympathy and imagination. It is truly, as Virginia Woolf famously remarked, one of the few English novels written for grown-up people.

Àííîòàöèÿ: Daniel Deronda, the last of Eliot s novels, is the most complete expression of her idealism. Its main concerns are those of personal morality, of dedication to tradition and roots, and of spiritual identification and sympathy all set in an era of considerable national and international awareness. The text is that of the Clarendon Edition.

Àííîòàöèÿ: Scenes of clerical life at a time when religious questions were as hotly debated as sexual matters are today, george Eliot's choise of subject for her fictional debut is...

Àííîòàöèÿ: Middlemarch (1871-2) is the masterpiece of a writer who is now recognized as a major literary figure of the nineteenth century. Virginia Woolf halled as one of the few English novels written for adult people's this magnificent work...

Àííîòàöèÿ: This title includes introduction and notes by R.T. Jones, Honorary Fellow of the University of York. Although the shortest of George Eliot's novels, Silas Marner is one of her most admired and loved works. It tells the sad story of the unjustly exiled Silas Marner - a handloom linen weaver of Raveloe in the agricultural heartland of England - and how he is restored to life by the unlikely means of the orphan child Eppie. Silas Marner is a tender and moving tale of sin and repentance set in a vanished rural world and holds the reader's attention until the last page as Eppie's bonds of affection for Silas are put to the test
