- catalog abstract ""Is communal memory intrinsically related to a sense of history? If so, how? And what are their interrelations? Fundamental to these questions are issues that engaged the thinking of many nineteenth-century writers and continue to engage us today: for example, memory and narrative, memory and oblivion, the temporal sense and historical meaning of memory and the interactions between personal, communal and national memories." "Hao Li argues for a reappraisal of George Eliot's complex understanding of these issues; she explores the ways in which they are conceptualized and transformed in Eliot's novels."--Jacket.".
