About this title

Synopsis

George Eliot has a central place in university courses on the novel, the Victorian Period, and Feminism. The radicalism of her co-habitation with George Lewes contrasts provocatively with the apparent moral conservatism with which she treats her fictional heroines, yet she pushes sexual politics beyond the domain of the personal into the public arena. This set follows the series format and includes: Volume I: Overview, chronology of Eliot's life, full bibliographies of her works, and a section of responses from three leading writers, Dickens, Trollope, and Henry James. Volume II: Twentieth-century perspectives, with commentary by G.K. Chesterton, Virginia Woolf, Marcel Proust, and many others. Volume III: Critical essays on individual works, ending with a section on her poetry. Volume IV: Explores responses from 1970 to the present, including sections on 'Feminist Issues', and History, Politics, and Realism. _
