Podrobnosti o e‑knize

George Eliot's 'Middlemarch' is a monumental work of English literature, set in a provincial town and portraying the lives and relationships of its residents with profound psychological insight. The novel follows the intertwined stories of several characters, exploring themes of love, marriage, social class, and the search for meaning in life. Eliot's narrative style is rich and detailed, with a focus on the inner thoughts and emotions of her characters, making 'Middlemarch' a gripping and thought-provoking read. The novel is considered a classic of Victorian literature, blending realism with moral and philosophical depth. George Eliot, the pen name of Mary Ann Evans, had a keen interest in social issues and a deep understanding of human nature, which is evident in her writing. Her experiences as a woman in a male-dominated society likely influenced her exploration of gender roles and societal expectations in 'Middlemarch'. I highly recommend 'Middlemarch' to readers interested in classic literature, as it offers a compelling exploration of human relationships and societal norms. Eliot's insightful commentary on the complexities of life and love makes this novel a timeless and engaging read.

O autorovi

George Eliot, the pen name of Mary Ann Evans (22 November 1819 – 22 December 1880), was an English novelist, poet, journalist, and one of the leading writers of the Victorian era. Her novels, known for their realism and psychological insight, include 'Adam Bede' (1859), 'The Mill on the Floss' (1860), 'Silas Marner' (1861), 'Romola' (1863), and 'Daniel Deronda' (1876), with 'Middlemarch' (1871-1872) frequently cited as her masterpiece. 'Middlemarch', a complex narrative set in a provincial English town, explores a panoply of characters and social issues with unsurpassed depth and nuance. Eliot's writing was characterized by her keen observation, moral seriousness, and narrative skill, eschewing melodrama for a richly detailed and nuanced realism. This approach allowed her to explore themes such as the status of women, the nature of marriage, idealism, self-interest, religion, and social change. Though she struggled for acceptance as a female author in a male-dominated profession, Eliot's focus on the inner lives of ordinary people and her incisive moral analysis have earned her a place among the great novelists in English literature. Posthumously, her literary significance continues to be recognized, and her work remains influential to writers and readers alike.
