This volume examines Eliot's understanding of money and economics, its bearing on her moral and political thought, and the ways in which she incorporated that thought into her novels. It offers a detailed account of Eliot's intellectual engagements with political economy, Utilitarianism, and the new liberalism of the 1870s, and also her practical dealings with money through her management of household and business finances and, in later years, her considerable investments in stocks and shares."-- $c Publisher description. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 207-221) and index. 600 10 $a Eliot, George, $d 1819-1880 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 10 $a Eliot, George, $d 1819-1880 $x Economics. $x Economics. 600 10 $a Eliot, George, $d 1819-1880 $x Finance, Personal. 650 0 $a Money in literature. 650 0 $a Utilitarianism in literature. 650 0 $a Ethics in literature. 650 0 $a English literature $y 19th century $x History and criticism. 650 7 $a LITERARY CRITICISM / European / English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh. $2 bisacsh 830 0 $a Cambridge studies in nineteenth-century literature and culture ; $v 90. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210020117.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6DFAA8A64DE711E4A85DE8D9DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
