Tuula Temonen "George Eliot och den engelska naturalistiska romanen : en literär studie" by Helena Westermarck is a literary study written in the late 19th century. It investigates George Eliot’s life, ideas, and novels as exemplars of English naturalism, linking her art to contemporary science and philosophy. The work appears to combine biography with critical analysis, moving through her major books, ethical outlook, and artistic method while situating her alongside thinkers like Strauss, Feuerbach, Spinoza, and Comte. The opening of the study sets out a dedication, a detailed table of contents, and a foreword arguing for Eliot’s extraordinary erudition and for the need, in Swedish, of a full biography that also presents English naturalism as coherent and ethical. It then sketches Eliot’s childhood in Warwickshire—her practical, respected father (a model for figures like Adam Bede/Caleb Garth), a capable mother reminiscent of Mrs. Poyser, her intense bond with brother Isaac, early schooling, fragile health, and deepening religious zeal. The narrative follows her move to Foleshill, immersion in the Bray/Hennell circle, and a decisive shift from evangelicalism toward a tolerant, development-centered outlook, culminating in the arduous translation of Strauss’s Leben Jesu (and later Feuerbach), alongside wide linguistic and musical study. It proceeds to her father’s death, a restorative stay in Geneva, return to England, editorial work at the Westminster Review, friendships with Herbert Spencer and G. H. Lewes, and the formation—and public defense—of her lifelong partnership with Lewes, including their productive Weimar and Berlin sojourns, before turning to her mid-1850s critical writing.
