The fascinating character of Maggie Tulliver and her relationship with her brother Tom is at the centre of this moving story of rural Victorian England. As she grows up, the intelligent and imaginative Maggie is oppressed by the limited role offered to women and is eventually ostracised by her family and local society. George Eliot gives a deep psychological insight of the different characters, exploring their feelings, their moral worth and motivations.

This book should be required reading for anyone who wants to look seriously at narrative theory. Genette's analysis of the construction of time in narrative discourse is the still the model for theorists writing since then. Such categories as order, frequency, and duration in the narrative presentation of story-time show how narrative decisions on the part of authors can have dramatically different rhetorical effects. Genette views these narrative strategies as a form of rhetorical figuration and gives them terms drawn from classical rhetoric (e.g., "prolepsis" for a flashing forward, "analepsis" for a flashback).
The Birth of Feminism - Woman as Intellect in Renaissance Italy and England
An experiment in collective biography and intellectual history, The Birth of Feminism focuses on nineteen learned women from the middle ranks of society who rose to prominence in the world of Italian and English letters between 1400 and 1680. Drawing both on archival material—wills, letters, and manuscript compositions, some presented here for the first time—and on printed writings, Ross gives us an unprecedented sense of educated early modern women’s lives.
