Good morning, all appraiser committee members. I am a f. o. &boli-bennett, my tutor is Chen. Her constant encouragement and guidance, I have finished my paper. Now, its show time. You and I will work hard to welcome any correction.
The topic of my thesis is《 George Eliot “Middleton ma qi” of the female and female problems》.Heres the paper selected topic background.
George Eliot (1819-~1880) was bom as Mary Anne Evans, an English novelist,journalist, translator and one of the leading writers of the Victorimi era who developed themethod of psychological analysis. George Eliot is her pseudonym in the literary circle.
In January 1855 after eight-month-stay with George Henry Lewes from Germany back toEngland, her first article Evangelical Teaching in Westminster Review was well received, butconsidering the discriminative views on women critics in the mid-Victorian era,she used “theauthor of article No. 4as a code name to conceal her gender so that she could gaina fair treatment from critics. With the encouragement of Lewes and her distinct views onwriting, she turned to fiction in 1856, among which Scenes of Clerical Life is her first novel.
As a leading woman novelist in the late Victorian era, Eliot is a prolific writer in noveland poetry. Her works include seven novels including Adam Bede (1859)， The Mill on theFloss (1860)，Silas Marner (1861)，^omo/a(1863)， Felix Holt, the Radical (1866)，Middlemarch (1871-72)，Daniel Deronda (1876)，poetry with The Spanish Gypsy (1868) asthe representative, translation of David Strauss The Life of Jesus (1846) and of LudwigFeuerbachs The Essence of Christianity (1854) and other articles like Silly Novels by LadyNovelists (1856)，Scenes of Clerical Life(l857)，etc. when she worked as editor ofWestminster Review (1851-1854)。
As far as Eliots writing style is concerned, she creates her fictional world out of herpersonal experience~a middle-and-lower-class rural England of the nineteenth-centuryMidlands. All her rich experience gives rise to her distinct writing features, which is highlypraised by Leavis in The Great Tradition:
Of the earlier novelists it was George Eliot alone (if we except the minor relevance of JaneAusten) whose work had a direct and significant bearing on her own problem. It had this bearingbecause she was a great novelist, and because in her mature work she handled withunprecedented subtlety and refinement the personal relations of sophisticated charactersexhibiting the civilization,of the best society, and used, in so doing, an original psychologicalnotation corresponding to the fineness of her psychological and moral insight .
Leavis summarizes the writing features of George Eliot from two aspects. Firstly, Eliots lifeexperience and her research into the Victorian society are well reflected in her works,whichjustifies for our study on the inter-relationship among her life, her feminine outlook and herfeminine characters in her works. Secondly, she specializes in ”sophisticated characters“ withthe touch upon the Victorian society and a daring trial on the psychological development ofcharacters.
Young called Eliot as ”moralist of the Victorian revolution . Undoubtedly Eliotsdeep insight into human psychological and moral aspects symbolizes her mature techniques inhandling with characters, which,to a great extent, also greatly influences her successorsincluding Henry James, Joseph Conrad, and D.H. Lawrence,etc.
When it comes to her position in English literature,Leavis places Eliot “mnong threeother great novelists including Jane Austen, Henry James and Joseph Conrad.” He regardsEliot as “a great artist~a great novelist, with a great novelists psychological insight andfineness of human valuation .” Lord David Cecil compares George Eliot with Jane Austenand says by way of explaining the phrase, it is this: that “George Eliot, being concerned, notto offer primarily an entertainment, but to explore a significant theme-a theme significantin its bearing on the serious problems and preoccupations of mature life-breaks with thoseftmdamental conventions both of form and matter within which the English novel up till thenhad been constructed?‘” In this way, Eliots contribution to English literature and herphilosophy beyond the traditional realm for women cannot be neglected.
Middlemarch is a milestone of Eliots mature works,which depicts a provincial life of avirtual town named Middlemarch in1830s with more than 70 characters in it Leavis callsMiddlemarch as “the only one book to represent her mature genius.” Virginia Woolfmakes- the following comments on Middlemarch:
It is not that her power diminishes, for, to our thinking, it is at its highest in the matureMiddlemarch, the magnificent book which,with all its imperfections, is one of the few Englishnovels written for grown-up people.
The political background of Middlemarch is concerned about the first Reform Bill in1832 of English history. This novel has won critical triumph as well as commercial success,which embodies Eliots philosophy on life, women, reform and morality,etc. Besides,characters reflect the writers thinking and passion. As Longinus points out,“The genius ofgreat poets and prose writers, as their passion declines, finds its final expression in thedelineation of character !叫。” So it is with George Eliot in her Middlemarch, Therefore, thefeminine characters in Middlemarch have something to do with George Eliots outlook onVictorian women. Whats more, her personal experience also contributes to the formation ofher distinct feminine views.
In this thesis, researches will concentrate on the feminine protagonists in Middlemarch tohave a relatively deep study of Victorian women and their women questions in the novel fromthe feminine perspective. During the process, the text intends to find out the interrelationshipbetween Eliots distinct feminine views and her feminine characters. More importantly, thethesis will induce a relatively objective study on Middlemarch and its feminine characterswhen they tackle with their problems so as to find out both progressiveness and limitations ofGeorge Eliots feminine views.
Next, it is an outline of my paper. In the main part of this paper, I divide it into six parts.
In the first part, the authoress displays the introduction of the thesis including theresearch background, research perspective and aspects as well as the purpose and significanceof the current study.
In the second part, the thesis shall give the definition of women questions and related keyconcepts in Eliots writings.
In the third and fourth part comes the textual analysis. In the two parts, the text willfocus on Dorothea the protagonist to discuss the typical women questions in family andsociety and to look into how they deal with these questions from the gynocritic perspective.
The fifth part shall be a further exploration on George Eliots views on women.
In the sixth part, the research shall come to the conclusion of the thesis as well as somesuggestions for further exploration.
OK! That is all. Thank you! Please ask questions.
