George EliotCritical Assessments

Format: Hardback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £42.25
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

George Eliot has a central place in university courses on the novel, the Victorian Period, and Feminism. The radicalism of her co-habitation with George Lewes contrasts provocatively with the apparent moral conservatism with which she treats her fictional heroines, yet she pushes sexual politics beyond the domain of the personal into the public arena. This set follows the series format and includes: Volume I: Overview, chronology of Eliot's life, full bibliographies of her works, and a section of responses from three leading writers, Dickens, Trollope, and Henry James. Volume II: Twentieth-century perspectives, with commentary by G.K. Chesterton, Virginia Woolf, Marcel Proust, and many others. Volume III: Critical essays on individual works, ending with a section on her poetry. Volume IV: Explores responses from 1970 to the present, including sections on 'Feminist Issues', and History, Politics, and Realism. _
