A few of these, in some of which the reader will catch fine touches of Eliza bethan inspiration, I will pick out of the mass.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from George Eliot's Poetry and Other Studies A Genuine poem is almost certain of recognition, as such, in the long run. If verse contains poetry, that poetry makes itself felt, whatever blemishes the verse, as verse, may have; but if dint of argument alone brings us to acknowledge faultless verse a poem, like Galileo, in the moment of recantation, we shall mutter to ourselves our former and unrecanted conviction. Choose, for example, any Paris to arbitrate between "Aurora Leigh" and "The Spanish Gypsy," and which will win the golden apple? If Paris is at all able to tell black from white, he will at once perceive the "points" of which the "Gypsy" is possessed and of which "Aurora" is destitute. He will discover in the pages of George Eliot superlatives enough. Their color and glow, their vigor, their passion, their nobility of sentiment, their perfection of pathos, the sustained movement of the story, its tragic and worthy denouement, its perfect prosody, its successful unities, and its everywhere-pervading atmosphere of ethical sublimity - all these will compare with "Aurora" to "Aurora's" disadvantage. And yet, and yet - how is it? - "Aurora" gets the apple! Perhaps poor Paris can only stammer forth, in answer to the question, What in "Aurora" more excellent than in the "Gypsy" establishes her claim to the prize?

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Life and Works of George Eliot, Vol. 17: Poems It must not be supposed that this is by any means a matter of mere fluency, correctness, or ease of numbers. Macaulay wrote verses far su perior in these particulars to many of Mr. Henry Taylor's and many of Wordsworth's. Yet verse was, unequivocally, Macaulay's left-hand; and after adolescence, few people can read his verse for poetry. If I were not unwilling to rouse the prejudice of (i fear!) most of my readers, I should here add Edgar Poe; and, indeed, I really cannot Spare him as an illustration. He must have some queer hybrid place, all to himself (which it would take an essay to define) but though he may be said to have felt verse his right-hand medium of expression, some few of us hesitate to call him a poet. Not to complicate this matter, let us come at once to the point. What is it that in excellent verse differentiates 1 that which is poetry and that which is not? Not mere fluency, but unconscious fluency; in a word, simplicity. Whatever art may do for the poet, he must be a simple musician to begin with.

What of wealth it contains is drawn entirely from George Eliot's treasury; what of light there is in it streams from her alone as its source. It is scarcely necessary to add, that this little work by no means professes to have drained George Eliot's writings of the riches with which they so abound. Of course, only a sample could be given here for a full supply the reader is referred to the novels and poems themselves, with the assurance (on the part of one who has made them a close study for.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe works collected in this volume provide an illuminating introduction to George Eliot's incisive views on religion, art and science, and the nature and purpose of fiction. Essays such as 'Evangelical Teaching' show her rejecting her earlier religious beliefs, while 'Woman in France' questions conventional ideas about female virtues and marriage, and 'Notes on Form in Art' sets out theories of idealism and realism that she developed further in Middlemarch and Daniel Deronda. It also includes selections from Eliot's translations of works by Strauss and Feuerbach that challenged many ideas about Christianity; excerpts from her poems; and reviews of writers such as Wollstonecraft, Goethe and Browning. Wonderfully rich in imagery and observations, these pieces reveal the intellectual development of this most challenging and rewarding of writers.
