George Eliot
1819-1880
Mary Ann Evans, known by her pen name George
Eliot, was an one
of the leading English
writers of the Victorian era. She is remembered primarily for
Middlemarch,
praised by Virginia Woolf
as “one of the few English
novels written for grown-up people”. Her first works of fiction were a
series of three short stories, all starring hapless provincial vicars,
which were serialized in magazines and published together as Scenes of Clerical Life.
