The Mill on the Floss and Silas Marner

This New Casebook explores the enduring significance of George Eliot''s novels The Mill on the Floss (1860) and Silas Marner (1861). Eliot''s radical cultural politics and the arrestingly original fictional strategies that characterise two of her most popular novels are explored from a variety of perspectives - feminist, historicist, structuralist and psychoanalytic.>
