    Issue 29 • 2020 • George Eliot 1819–2019 in 19


This issue of 19 uses the occasion of George Eliot’s bicentenary in 2019 to think again about an extraordinary Victorian’s life and work. The articles included here revisit and rethink the writing life, from the woman of letters at the Westminster Review through to the peculiar pen of Theophrastus Such. We celebrate a novelist intensely alive to her world, engaged with multiple forms of art, with science and philosophy, politics and life, hope and human suffering.

Editors: Carolyn Burdett (Guest Editor)
