George Eliot's first biographer, Mathilde Blind (1841 1896), was
herself a poet and writer. Born in Germany, Blind moved with her
family to London when she was still a child, and it was there that
she established her literary reputation, writing poetry, essays,
biographies, and a novel. In 1883, three years after Eliot's death,
Blind's George Eliot was published. It is the first full-length
biography of Eliot; while biographical articles about her had
appeared in 1881, Blind's work corrected mistakes and enlarged the
knowledge of Eliot's early life. Indeed, what sets her biography
apart is the extent of private sources that Blind sought out,
returning to Eliot's home and engaging with family and friends to
accrue extensive information hitherto unknown to the public.
Organized first around her personal life and latterly around her
works, this biography will interest Eliot scholars, students of
nineteenth-century criticism, and scholars of feminism.
O MOON, large golden summer moon, Hanging between the linden trees,
Which in the intermittent breeze Beat with the rhythmic pulse of
June!
