The Lifted Veil by George George Eliot Pdf

George Eliot's novella ''The Lifted Veil'' was first published in 1859. Eliot had written ''The Lifted Veil'' between the publication of her first novel Adam Bede, and that of her second novel, The Mill on the Floss. Eliot's publisher was hesitant to publish the story, because it was nothing like Adam Bede, for which she had gained critical acclaim. He was concerned that this tale of horror would be bad for her literary reputation, but reluctantly published it in a literary journal, albeit anonymously. ''The Lifted Veil'' concerns themes of fate, extrasensory perception, the mystery of life and life after death. Eliot's interest in these themes stemmed partly from her own struggles with religious faith, as she was an extremely devout Christian as a child and young adult who later renounced Christianity completely. She also felt that she herself, like Latimer, the main character in ''The Lifted Veil,'' had extrasensory powers of perception, which she referred to as ''double consciousness.''

She also felt that she herself, like Latimer, the main character in "The Lifted Veil," had extrasensory powers of perception, which she referred to as "double consciousness."While Eliot came to be considered one of the greatest novelists of the 19th Century during her lifetime, "The Lifted Veil" is one of her lesser-known stories, probably because it is so different from the realist novels for which she is so well known. Yet, while is does not seem to match the rest of her ouevre, "The Lifted Veil" does fit squarely into the Victorian tradition of Gothic horror stories, which began with Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (1818) and included Robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1886), as well as Bram Stoker's Dracula (1895). Such works of fiction were precursors of modern horror movies, such as Psycho, Night of the Living Dead, and Nightmare on Elm Street, as well as modern horror fiction, such as the novels of Stephen King.

George Eliot’s ‘The Lifted Veil’ by Franco Marucci Pdf

The negative historical judgment given to George Eliot’s ‘The Lifted Veil’ amounts nowadays to a gross critical blunder, and in the last three decades the story has been firmly reinstated in Eliot’s major canon. The premise of the present book is that George Eliot’s oeuvre is a compact macrotext where themes, motifs, patterns and cultural and personal archetypes recur with variations, and that ‘The Lifted Veil’ functions as the linchpin of this oeuvre. A sequential approach to the story is authorized by the use of a mimetic enunciation that simulates a gradual ‘definition’ of events, places, and characters as they have appeared to the narrating ‘I’ in the course of time until the moment of the enunciation. Contextualizing ‘The Lifted Veil’ means placing it within Eliot’s oeuvre and against the background of Victorian mid-century fiction; in a further meaning, seeing it as intersecting various contemporary genres and subgenres, such as that of the European and American ‘literature of the veil’, that of the archetypal icon of the femme fatale, that of Wilkie Collins’s ‘dead secret’ novels. The most significant facet that critical literature on ‘The Lifted Veil’ has tended to overlook is however the encrypting of the experience of a failed religious conversion and the foreshadowing of the search for a spiritual and racial identity of Daniel Deronda, the hero of Eliot’s final novel.
