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.
