Book Description
Excerpt from The Inner Life of George Eliot Jew and Gentile, the book may still be a Gospel. I know quite well that it will be said again that, in Daniel Deronda, the moralist eat up the artist. I deny that. Once it is seen that George Eliot's art is the fruit of her impassioned morality, that it is insep arable from it, and that her real kinship is with the best of the old Hebrew Prophets, such criticism will lose all force. Of course, I do not claim that Daniel Deronda is not open to severe criticism in parts, but I do say that in it George Eliot reached heights and depths which she touched in no other work, and that whatever its failures, a book that contains such a creation as Mordecai becomes of imperishable value.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Works of George Eliot, Vol. 18: Life of George Eliot "Nov. 22, 1819. - Mary Ann Evans was born at Arbury Farm, at five o'clock this morning." This is an entry Mr. Robert Evan's hand-writing on the page of an old diary that now lies before me, and records, with characteristic precision, the birth of his youngest child, afterwards known to the world as George Eliot. Let us pause for a moment to pay its due homage to the precision, because it was in all probability to this most noteworthy quality of her father's nature that the future author was indebted for one of the principal elements of her own after success, - the enormous faculty for taking pains. The baby was born on St. Cecilia's day, and Mr. Evans, being a good Churchman, takes her, on the 29th November, to be baptised in the church at Chilvers Coton, - the parish in which Arbury Farm lies, - a church destined to impress itself strongly on the child's imagination, and to be known by many people in many lands afterwards as Shepperton Church.

Book Description
Excerpt from George Eliot The extensive literature which has appeared con cerning the life and writings of George Eliot ranges from brief notices to formidable volumes covering the period of her whole life, and includes the criticism of the foremost litterateurs and even the testimony of George Eliot herself. Far the most important of all, so far as her personality is concerned, is her life as told in the volumes of extracts from her diary and let ters which were edited by her husband, Mr. Cross, and published in 1885. The first to appear of the separate volumes treat ing of George Eliot's life and writings was that by Mathilde Blind, written just after the great novelist's death and published in London and Boston in 1883, at a time when retrospective interest in George Eliot's life was naturally the keenest. A good deal of critical and some biographical material had been previously published in scattered places, but this was the first attempt to gather it together and summarize it much additional matter was also included, so that Miss Blind's book could not be looked upon as a mere compilation.

Book Description
This richly enjoyable biography of the great Victorian novelist reminds us how truly revolutionary was George Eliot... [Ashton] provides luminously sane readings of the marvellous novels.' A.N. Wilson, Evening Standard 'Excellent... Ashton cites Eliot's achievement in a literary landscape which moves from Scott and George Sand to Dickens, Tennyson and Browning... a fluent, vivid book... it makes one thrill again to the breadth of Eliot's genius and the passionate, vulnerable nature that accompanied her wide-ranging mind.' Jenny Uglow, Independent on Sunday 'An extremely impressive work... the George Eliot who emerges from Professor Ashton's book is a remarkable woman of exceptional integrity whose life expresses the spirit of the Victorian age, even as it goes against the very grain of it.' Susie Boyt, Sunday Express

Book Description
Excerpt from Wit and Wisdom of George Eliot Labour in connection with the volume has been very triļ¬ing, and altogether pleasant. What of wealth it contains is drawn entirely from George Eliot's treasury; what of light there is in it streams from her alone as its source. It is scarcely necessary to add, that this little work by no means professes to have drained George Eliot's writings of the riches with which they so abound. Of course, only a sample could be given here for a full supply the reader is referred to the novels and poems themselves, with the assurance (on the part of one who has made them a close study for.

Book Description
Excerpt from George Eliot a Critical Study of Her Life, Writings and Philosophy The publication of a new edition of this work permits me to say that the essay on "The Lady Novelists," quoted in the seventh chapter, was written by George Henry Lewes. Its opinions, however, are substantially those of George Eliot, and they will be found in harmony with her own words. Confessing to the error, I yet venture to let the quotations, and the comments on them, stand as at first made. The three poems mentioned on page 75, were among the latest of the productions of George Eliot's pen. It has been suggested to me that I have not done perfect justice to George Henry Lewes, especially in what I say of his books on the Spanish drama and the life of Goethe. I have carefully reconsidered what I wrote of him, and find no occasion for any change of judgment, though two or three words might properly give place to others of a more appreciative meaning. My book has met with much greater praise than I could have expected. Its errors, I have no doubt, are quite numerous enough; and yet I venture to think the main thought of the book is correct.
