Nearly the girl's whole course of life was described in this novel― from her sweet and painful childhood to her courageous death in order to save her beloved brother Tom. A passionate, intelligent and sexually attractive girl is completely unacceptable to the society of "angels at home". Her characteristics, undoubtedly, form a big challenge to the society in which she lived. And through the creation of such a special girl with resisting spirit, one is able to understand better George Eliot's creative motive.展开更多

When facing the moral confinement of the patriarchy, Maggie challenges the traditional merits of virtuous women such as the Other and the Angel. Hence her rebellious image as a revolter can be fully exposed.展开更多

In works like From the Handbook of That & Furriery and Palace of Reptiles , musical scores are collaged into the body of the poem. Using the phrase “notational poetics,” this analysis is as much concerned with poems that sound as poems that don’t, but poetry nonetheless that both treats the spatial field of the poem scorelike and / or includes actual musical notation. When poetry meets music myriad questions crop up: Is poetry a kind of (analogous) “music,” as often suggested? What draws poetry to music, and vice versa? Is some mutual estrangement the result of poetry and music having become further alienated over time?展开更多
