ABOUT THE AUTHOR

George Eliot

English fiction writer, Mary Ann Evans Cross. He was born in Warwickshire in 1819 and died in 1880. Initially a believer in Christianity, he eventually converted to rationalist atheism, having actively collaborated in the Westminster Review, with a positivist and radical tendency, between 1851 and 1854. Of his vast work, which includes some of the most important English novels of the nineteenth century, Scenes from Clerical Life (1857), The Mill on the Floss (1860), Felix Holt the Radical (1866) and Middlemarch (1871-1872) stand out.
