Description

Book Synopsis
Addresses the much-discussed question of Eliot's relation to Christianity in the wake of the sociocultural revolution triggered by the spread of theories of evolution. The standard view is that Eliot lost her faith at this time of religious crisis. Orr argues for a more nuanced understanding of the continuity of Eliot's work, as one not shattered by science, but shaped by its influence.
