Overview
Armstrong (Ph.D., Drew University) argues that Eliot used her character's inter-relations to produce and articulate an understanding of the other. She relates three of Eliot's novels to the theories of Feuerbach, Buber, and Levinas. In turn, Eliot's own moral system, emphasizing as it does the dangers of narcissism and egoism and stressing the importance of duty and responsibility, is taken to depend fundamentally on this same conception of the other.
