George Eliot's reception as a writer has been checkered from the
start. Prejudice followed the revelation of her real identity as a
woman, and she suffered from critical neglect at the start of the
twentieth century before a postwar renaissance of interest
established her as one of the most powerful of British novelists.
Focusing on three of Eliot's most influential and widely read
"Midlands" novels, this guide traces recent critical
interpretations of her work as well as revisiting some of the
perspectives offered by original reviewers and early critics.
Class, gender, and ideology all come under scrutiny, as do Eliot's
central fictive themes of currency, circulation, sensuality, and
the voice.
