Paperback. Zustand: Gut. 708 p.: Ill. Lediglich die Broschur und der Buchschnitt ist minimal berieben. Sonst aber ein sehr gutes und sauberes Exemplar/ Only the booklet and book edge is minimally rubbed. But otherwise a very good and clean copy. - Born in 1819 as Mary Anne Evans, George Eliot grew up at a time when the pastoral life she knew was being destroyed by the rapid rise of industrialism. Her striking intelligence brought her to the attention of John Chapman, who enlisted her to work on the intellectual Westminster Review in London. Using many letters and documents previously unavailable, Frederick Karl focuses on Eliots relationships with the leading thinkers of her time in a way earlier biographers have been unable to do. He explores her relationship to the married George Henry Lewes whose support helped her to begin her career as a novelist. Karls is the unforgettable portrait of a woman torn by contradictionsbetween the desire to conserve the past and yet to change the limitations imposed by class and gender. Karl looks at how Silas Marner, Middlemarch, and Eliots other landmark novels beckoned toward the twentieth-century sense of the modern.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Frederick R. Karl's magisterial biography of George Eliot proves her to be one of the most fascinating and iconic individuals of her time. Born in 1819 as Mary Anne Evans, she grew up near rural Coventry when the pastoral life was being destroyed by the rapid rise of industrialism. Her father, Robert Evans, took care of an estate, where the family lived. Eliot, his youngest child, absorbed the world around her, its beauty and its delicate sense of stability, which was about to be thoroughly disrupted. Eliot thrived on learning while she stayed home, taking care of her aging father. Upon his death, she began her long process of emergence and change. Her unusual intelligence and literary capacity brought her to the attention of John Chapman, who enlisted her to work on the intellectual Westminster Review in London. While there she met some of the leading thinkers of her era, including Herbert Spencer. Karl focuses on her relationships with these men in a way earlier biographers have been unable, using many letters and documents previously unavailable. 'This is a weighty and authoritative biography which takes account of the latest available scholarship.It gives more than adequate representation of the moral and intellectual distinction which George Eliot carried with her everywhere—the distinction of her work, of course, but also the distinctiveness of her thwarted, striated, and passionate nature.' —Peter Ackroyd, 'London Times' This item is printed on demand.
