Abstract: | In a Recent periodical President Hutchins of Chicago University I defined a classic as “a book that is contemporary in every age.” This definition implies that the ideas contained in such a classic have value for every generation, and it is with this in mind that the works of George Eliot seem to be worth studying today in an attempt to ascertain the views on education of some of the women novelists of the nineteenth century. |
