Ahead of her time
George Eliot
Think Sarah Bernhardt, Betty Friedan, Sojourner Truth. Marian Anderson, Amelia Earhart, even Madonna. These women had so much talent and daring, they didn't care that the world wasn't ready for them. Add the name George Eliot to the list Mary Ann Evans, to be more precise. While her heroines led quiet lives of modest usefulness, the renowned social novelist followed a more provocative path, breaking the sexual, religious, and social taboos of Victorian England, transforming herself from Midlands evangelical to cosmopolitan intellectual, from obscure London literary editor to world-famous novelist.
The education of Mary Ann Evans
The youngest of Robert and Christina Evans's five children, Mary Ann Evans was born on November 22, 1819, on a Warwickshire estate where her father was a land agent. Reared in a strict atmosphere of evangelical Protestantism that she would later renounce, Evans was teaching Sunday school to local farm children by the age of 12. Her closest companion was her brother Isaac, until they were sent to different boarding schools in 1824. Missing his company, Evans turned to books as a source of companionship.
In 1828, she moved on to Mrs. Wallington's Boarding School, where Evans met Maria Lewis, a governess who took an immediate interest in the shy 9-year-old, fostering Evan's intellect and instilling her own strong evangelical beliefs. At 13, Evans left Mrs. Wallington's, but maintained a close relationship with Lewis for another 14 years. Miss Franklin's School in Coventry, the last stop in Evans's education, gave her the chance to exorcise her Midlands accent and cultivate the low, musical voice that would become her hallmark.

Name: George Eliot Variant Name: Mary Ann Evans Birth Date: Death Date: Place of Birth: Warwickshire, England Nationality: English Gender: Female Occupations: author, novelist George Eliot Main Biography George Eliot was the pen name used by the English novelist Mary Ann Evans (1819-1880), one of the most important writers of European fiction. Her masterpiece, Middlemarch, is not only a major social document but also one of the greatest novels in the history of fiction. Mary Ann Evans was born in Warwickshire, the daughter of an estate agent or manager. Her education was a conventional one, dominated by Christian teachings and touched by the enthusiasm generated by the Evangelical movement of church reform. In her 20s she came into contact with a circle of freethinkers and underwent a radical transformation of her beliefs. Influenced by the so-called Higher Criticisma largely German school of biblical scholarship that attempted to treat sacred writings as human and historical documentsshe devoted herself to translating its findings for the English public. She published her translation of David Strauss's

Silas Marner: The Weaver of Raveloe
Author Info: George Eliot
[Mary Ann Evans]
It's a fairly simple and straightforward story about the capacity of love to heal spiritual wounds and make damaged beings whole, hence its power. Her other novels are in vogue right now, particularly the unreadable Middlemarch , but this is clearly Eliot's best and one of the most affecting novels of the 19th Century.

Parents
Siblings Wife Catherine Children ... Friends
S cenes of family harmony and cozy firesides in many of Dickens' stories seem in stark contrast to his own family life. Growing up, the family situation was often precarious due to his father's trouble with debt, which landed him in debtors' prison in 1824 when Charles was 12.
Later Dickens' own family was marked by strife as his relationship with his wife deteriorated and his sons seemed to have inherited their paternal grandfather's trouble handling finances. Dickens once lamented that he had "brought up the largest family with the smallest disposition for doing anything for themselves". Dickens' extended family's constant drain on his finances, along with his built-in anxiety about money caused by his childhood, resulted in Dickens never feeling comfortable enough about his financial situation.
Dickens' circle of friends consisted of people prominent in the arts, journalism, publishing, politics and public life. A loyal friend who demanded loyalty in return, lines were drawn during Dickens' very public separation from Catherine. Those not sympathetic to Dickens' side soon felt his wrath, in some cases, forever.

Search all of George Eliot George Eliot (1819-1880) is regarded as one of the greatest Victorian novelists, especially noted for her insightful psychological characterization.
Mary Ann Evans (George Eliot) was born in Chilvers Coton, Warwickshire. Her father was a carpenter who rose to be a land agent. She was educated at home and in several schools, and developed a strong evangelical piety. However, later Eliot rejected her dogmatic faith. When her mother died in 1836, she took charge of the family household. In 1841 she moved with her father to Coventry, where she lived with him until his death in 1849. After her father's death, Eliot traveled around Europe. She settled in London and took up work as sub editor of Westminster Review.
Under Eliot's control the Westminster Review enjoyed success. She became the center of a literary circle, one of whose members was George Henry Lewes, who would be her companion until his death in 1878. Lewes's wife was mentally unbalanced and she had already had two children by another man. In 1854 Eliot went to Germany with Lewes. Their unconventional union caused some difficulties because Lewes was still married and he was unable to obtain divorce.
Eliot's first collection of tales Scenes Of Clerical Life , appeared in 1858 under the pseudonym George Eliot. It was followed by her first novel

George Eliot, pseudonym of Mary Anne or Marian Evans, captured life with a sensitivity that encompassed an understanding of human behaviour and relationships. She was sent to boarding school from the age of five and was influenced by the strict views expressed there. She became markedly self-critical.
After writing Adam Bede , she was forced to reveal her identity as someone else claimed to be the author. The success of this novel ensured her role as a novel of repute and she became very financially secure.
She observed the effects of the Industrial Revolution in her novels, and expressed doubts about Christianity. Eliot's relationship with Lewes was controversial and due to circumstances surrounding his divorce she was never able to marry him. As a result, she was ostracised from society.
Despite this, her fame overcame circumstances of her personal life.

London Blue Plaques
Actor and writer Stephen Fry poses outside 54 Eaton Square in London - the former home of actress Vivien Leigh - during the launch of 'Handheld History'  Blue plaques are among the most familiar features of the London streetscape. They adorn the fa§ades of buildings in areas as different as Primrose Hill, Soho and Wimbledon; some of these buildings are grand, others look very ordinary, but all are connected by the fact that a remarkable person lived or worked there at some point in history. Blue plaques celebrate great figures of the past and the buildings that they inhabited. They open a window into another time by showing us where the great and the good have penned their masterpieces, developed new technologies, lived or died. Actors, authors, politicians, painters, scientists, sportsmen, campaigners and reformers – people from different countries, cultures and backgrounds – have all been commemorated in this way. The blue plaques scheme has been run by English Heritage since 1986, and continues to grow at a rate of around twenty plaques each year. From 2004, the scheme will be extended across England on a region-by-region basis; there are already blue plaques in Merseyside, Birmingham, Southampton and Portsmouth.

Biography
George Eliot will probably always retain a high place among writers of fiction. Her great power lies in the minute painting of character, chiefly among the lower middle classes, shopkeepers, tradesmen, and country folk of the Midlands, into whose thoughts and feelings she had an insight almost like divination, and of whose modes of expression she was complete mistress. Her general view of life is pessimistic, relieved by a power of seizing the humorous elements in human stupidity and ill-doing. There is also, however, much seriousness in her treatment of the phases of life upon which she touches, and few writers have brought out with greater power the hardening and degrading effects of continuance in evil courses, or the inevitable and irretrievable consequences of a wrong act. Her descriptions of rural scenes have a singular charm.
Life, ed. by J.W. Cross (1885-6). Books on her by Oscar Browning, 1890, and Sir Leslie Stephen (Men of Letters), 1902.
