eBooks di Titolo M di George Eliot editi da Librofilio

Pseudonimo di Mary Anne Evans, è stata una delle più importanti scrittrici britanniche dell’epoca vittoriana. Utilizzò questo nome maschile per gran parte della sua carriera per due ragioni: da un lato voleva essere presa sul serio come scrittrice e dall’altro voleva evitare i pregiudizi in quanto compagna di un uomo sposato, il filosofo e critico George Henry Lewes, con il quale visse vent’anni. Solo dopo aver raggiunto una certa fama come romanziera rivendicò le proprie opere, con scandalo di molti lettori. Nonostante il successo, le ci volle molto tempo per essere accettata nella buona società. Continuò comunque a usare lo pseudonimo con cui era diventata celebre.
