Prodigiously learned, alive to the massive social changes of her time, defiant of many Victorian orthodoxies, George Eliot is at once chronicler and analyst, novelist of nostalgia and monumental thinker. Her literary achievement is brought into focus by essays on its historical, intellectual, political and social contexts.
