George Eliot Pauline Nestor Published by Palgrave (2002) |
Book description
George Eliot was one of the great thinkers of her time, a figure
central to the main schools of thought and beliefs of the 19th
century. In this new study of her life, Associate Professor
Pauline Nestor offers a challenging reassessment of Eliot's contribution
to critical debates of her age and of our own era.
In particular, Dr Nestor examines the author's literary exploration
of ethics. She argues that Eliot's novels can be seen as relevant
to contemporary theoretical debates in feminism, moral philosophy,
postcolonial studies and psychoanalysis. Covering the writer's
complete body of fiction, George Eliot is an indispensable volume
for anyone studying the work of one of the most important and
influential novelists of the 19th century.
