George Eliot's Feminism (eBook, PDF)

The Right to Rebellion

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The question of whether or not George Eliot was what would now be called a feminist is a contentious one. This book argues, through a close study of her fiction, informed by examination of her life's story and by a comparison of her views to those of contemporary feminists, that George Eliot was more radical and more feminist than commonly thought.
