Essays on Some of the Modern Guides to English Thought in Matters of Faith

Description

  • "The great authoress who called herself George Eliot is chiefly known, and no doubt deserved to be chiefly known, in England, as a novelist, but she was certainly much more than a novelist in the sense in which that works applies even to writers of great genius, to Miss Austen, or Mr, Trollope,---nay, much more than a novelist in the sense in which that word applies to Miss Brontë, or even to Thackeray, though it is of couse true in relation to all these writers, that besides being much more, she is also, and necessarily, not so much."
