When Scenes of Clerical Life, George Eliot's first novel, was published anonymously in 1857, it was immediately recognized, in the words of Saturday Review, as 'the production of a peculiar and remarkable writer'. The three stories that make up the Scenes, 'The Sad Fortunes of the Reverend Amos Barton', 'Mr Gilfil's Love Story', and 'Janet's Repentance', intriguingly foreshadow George Eliot's later work. The first readers, including Dickens and Thackeray, were struck by the humorous irony, the truthfulness of the presentation of the lives of ordinary people, and the compassionate acceptance of human weakness which characterize Eliot's writing. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

習作痕跡還是很明顯噠,早期艾略特執著於刻畫每一個無關緊要的人物,而且迫切想賦予每個人獨特特徵,結果是每看一段對話都得翻迴去看人物介紹,到底什麼特徵來著?所以高手是練齣來的,第一部小說很少盡善盡美。不過,艾略特如果活在今天,寫傢庭倫理劇肯定在行,小兩口吵架、婆婆嫌棄媳婦的橋段寫得那叫一個惟妙惟肖,我都忍不住想學吵架技巧瞭,說不定哪天派上用場呢。
評分艾略特的第一部虛構,可能有更多的"傳記"色彩,但已然有瞭典型的艾略特色彩,鄉土氣息、富有人情味的敘述者、永遠的道德主題(sympathy)。比較喜歡第三篇,很少見到19世紀傢暴、酗酒的討論,覺得很新鮮。
