Excerpt from George Eliot The extensive literature which has appeared con cerning the life and writings of George Eliot ranges from brief notices to formidable volumes covering the period of her whole life, and includes the criticism of the foremost litterateurs and even the testimony of George Eliot herself. Far the most important of all, so far as her personality is concerned, is her life as told in the volumes of extracts from her diary and let ters which were edited by her husband, Mr. Cross, and published in 1885. The first to appear of the separate volumes treat ing of George Eliot's life and writings was that by Mathilde Blind, written just after the great novelist's death and published in London and Boston in 1883, at a time when retrospective interest in George Eliot's life was naturally the keenest. A good deal of critical and some biographical material had been previously published in scattered places, but this was the first attempt to gather it together and summarize it much additional matter was also included, so that Miss Blind's book could not be looked upon as a mere compilation.
