Описание:

This analysis of the writings of two major Victorian intellectuals examines the crucial place of gender in the larger Victorian debate about nature, religion, and evolutionary theory. Demonstrating the primacy of Herbert Spencer's influence on George Eliot's thought, Nancy Paxton discloses the continuous dialogue between this profoundly learned novelist and one of the most formidable and influential scientific authorities of her time. Using rarely cited first editions of Spencer's published works, Paxton reveals that Eliot and Spencer initially agreed in supporting several of the goals of early Victorian feminism when they met in 1851. Paxton surveys all of Spencer's writing to show when and why he repudiated his early feminism and demonstrates Eliot's determined resistance to the most conservative tendencies of evolutionary theory in her representation of female sexuality, motherhood, feminist ambition, and desire. In comparing Eliot's and Spencer's evolutionary "reconstruction of gender," the book draws on a wide variety of biographical, literary, and critical texts and on interdisciplinary scholarship about the relation between scientific and literary discourse in the nineteenth century. By thus reassessing Eliot's contribution to feminist thought, it presents a revolutionary reading of her novels which is informed by contemporary feminist criticism and the new historicism. "This is an important book because of the questions it raises, the issues it covers, and the illumination it brings to Eliot and Spencer and to crucial problems in the nineteenth century: Paxton looks at the ways scientific data get turned into arguments about the nature of women in society, about women and education, about women and sexuality. This work shows how truly current Eliot's novels are, no matter what their setting."--Barry Qualls, Rutgers University

Описание: Excerpt from Scenes From the George Eliot Country

Nuneaton is neither ignorant of, nor indifferent to, the distinction that has come to it by reason of George Eliot's associations with the district. It has not yet, however, been equal to the enterprise of producing a hand-book which would guide the stranger to spots of interest identified with her life and works. But while you would search the town in vain for a scrap of printed matter bearing upon those places, the chances are that the first adult person you met in the street would give you much of the information you required, and what he or She failed in would be made up by the next person you came across. Years ago I entered the town to make investigations, knowing nothing beyond this, that George Eliot was born near to, that many of the scenes of her earliest stories were in the district, and that the persons and events described in those stories were realities of common knowledge. But within an hour I was sufficiently posted up to cover the whole field of.
