Unsigned, "The Mill on the Floss," Saturday Review, vol. 9, April 14, 1860 "The riddle of life as it is here expounded is more like a Greek tragedy than a modern novel.

Most of the negative reactions to The Mill on the Floss were to the second half of the book--the suddenness with which the tragedies occurred, the relationship between Maggie and Stephen, the deus ex machina quality of the ending. In response, Eliot would agree that "the tragedy is not adequately prepared," because she "was beguiled by ...

A complicated book that doesn't let the reader or its characters off easy, "The Mill on the Floss" deceives with what, for Eliot at least, seems a straightforward narrative. (To be sure, the book features about half-a-dozen important players, each with a story of his or her own, but it's nowhere as involved as "Middlemarch.")

Even F.R. Leavis in the modern age has described some of the characters depicted in her novels as mere outline sketches without any psycho-intellectual depth and socio-cultural moorings. But, a close and minute study of The Mill on the Floss reveals that such charges leveled against George Eliot's art are unfounded and reflect a lop-sided and ...

exing no less than vexed, Maggie Tulliver in The Mill on the Floss, is widely taken as the most autobiographical of George Eliot's heroines, and with good reason. "That little " (54) growing up at Dorlcote Mill near the town of St Ogg's, with her elder brother Tom, is clearly the focus for authorial reminiscence in the first brief chapter.

Unforgettable. tbright 3 January 2000. Engaging, set in a historically rich time, Mill on the Floss (1997) is a memorable walk with thoroughly human characters. As it unfolds amid much background detail, the story becomes somewhat more real than simply an exercise in the willing suspension of disbelief.

The 28 Year Old James Mason. Single-Black-Male 31 October 2003. Mason plays the supporting role of Tom Tulliver in this adaptation of George Eliot's 'The Mill on the Floss'. Quite frankly, I didn't enjoy any of Eliot's novels so I wouldn't enjoy watching this film. Mason has a minor part, so it's not even worth watching anyway.

The Mill on the Floss is based around George Eliot's own experiences of provincial life, focusing on the struggles of the headstrong Maggie and her brother Tom Tulliver of Dorlecote Mill, St Oggs. Eliot needed no model for the brother-sister relationship at the heart of the novel, the novel widely being seen as semi-autobiographical.

A few years after Middlemarch I tried and liked Daniel Deronda. I'm pretty much interested in giving a try to any of Eliot's writing. The Mill on the Floss was next up. The book takes place in the fictional English village of St. Ogg's and focuses chiefly on siblings Tom and Maggie Tulliver, from childhood through young adulthood.

Define tragedy? Did Shakespeare write Shakespeare's plays? Do you think Hamlet knows he is being listened to when he says 'To be, or not to be'? Do you think the ending of The Mill On The Floss is poor? Do you think there is any point to reading criticism? Does Malcolm Lowry overwrite his prose? Don't you think Hamlet is a bit long?

The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot As a Tragedy My first George Eliot novel. There has been one main reason why I haven't read The Mill on the Floss yet. I saw most of the 1998 film adaptation starring Emily Watson some years ago. That was how I discovered this book; I had heard of Middlemarch, but not of this work until I saw the film.

There are elements of tragedy in this novel. This is a coming of age novel at its core. It depicts both Tom and Maggie Tulliver through their childhoods, adolescence and adulthood through tragedy and hardships. The novel was published in 1860, but is set in the 1820s right after the ascension of the Prince Regent to George IV as King.

12%Many critics have seen Eliot as a tragic novelist, especially in The Mill on the Floss. Though the tragic is an essential concept for Eliot, to be sustainable in the modern post-Darwin era it is argued that she believes it must be revised and even democratized. Time is a crucial element in the novel's revisionary concept of the tragic.

The Mill on the Floss is an adaptation of the novel by George Eliot. I have not read the book and so I cannot say if the film is a good adaptation or not. Instead, I will try to view it as its own entity. The Mill on the Floss is a frustrating picture of a young woman caught between the constricting ties of family and her desire to forge ahead ...
