Silas Marner as a Novel of Human Relations

Journal Title: International Journal of English and Literature (IJEL) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 3

Abstract

Silas Marner (1861), is interesting among George Eliot's compositions for its curtness and its evident symbolic lucidity. The narrative of Marner's ejection from society and his inevitable recovery through the adoration for a tyke, Eppie, has intense Biblical and mythic resonances. It additionally communicates parts of Eliot's own life as an innovative craftsman in a few fascinating ways. Moreover, the novel strikes a deal between the reasonable and the incredible in its delineation of town life and culture in nineteenth-century England. In spite of the fact that Eliot investigated this mixing of imagination and authenticity somewhere else in her vocation, she never executed it so completely as in Silas Marner. In Marner Eliot was "push" into a setting that had demonstrated to a great degree effective for her before: poor town life in country England. This is an indistinguishable general Midland foundation from in her two past books, Adam Bede (1859) and The Mill on the Floss (1860), both of which had been runaway successes.
