She wrote a large quantity of works of the highest merit and of far-reaching influence. Her attitude towards feminism has aroused wide attention and has been discussed hotly among feminist critics in different countries. The Mill on the Floss, which first appeared in1860, is regarded as the most excellent autobiographical novel of Eliot. The ideology of male power in the patriarchal society during the Victorian Era is internalized in people＇s heart, which brings huge influence on Maggie＇s female mental state. This paper aims to discuss the causes of Maggie＇s feminist thoughts and manifestation of her feminism, thus, the influence upon women in her times. The paper concludes that Eliot was a great female author full of pioneering feminist thought from the example given by Maggie in The Mill on the Floss.展开更多

Generally speaking, no matter what overt images they assume, Madonna or madwoman, no matter which period they are in, no matter how hard they try, suffering more or less characterizes their normal living state and they generally have to face a doomed fate. However, Eliot is by no means a pessimist, and she will never let her heroines subject to their fate passively. In suffering, these heroines still believe in love and humanity. They keep their eyes on the misery of the world with great sympathy. They suffer for themselves, and more for others. Suffering is the source of their strength and their way to save the corrupted souls of their male counterparts. They put themselves on the cross of suffering, and in this process they eventually are elevated as Christ figures. Suffering, as Eliot has wished, serves as a baptism, a regeneration, and the initiation into a new state for the sufferers and also a salvation to the world.展开更多

By exploring the quantum hypothesis testing, i.e., the probabilisfic quantum cloning, we derive the upper bounds of the minimal error discrimination （MED） and the optimal unambiguous discrimination （OUD）, which coincides with the Helstrom theorem and the JS limit. Furthermore, when prior probabilities are unknown, we derive the minimax MED and the minimax OUD. Based on the optimal NM probabilistic quantum cloning, we present the optimal strategies of collective measurements of the MED and the OUD. When the number of the copies is infinite, regardless of whether prior probabilities are known or not, the success probabilities of the MED and the OUD go to 100%, in accordance with the quantum measurement hypothesis that unknown quantum state can be determined if and only if infinite identical quantum state copies are given.展开更多
