George Eliot

Under the pseudonym George Eliot, Mary Ann Evans wrote the novel Daniel Deronda, which was first released in eight parts (books) from February to September 1876. It was the only book she ever finished that was set in her era's Victorian society. One of the most known Victorian novelists' contentious final work is a controversial combination of social satire, moral reflection, and sympathetic representation of Jewish proto-Zionist views. The novel has been adapted three times for the screen: twice for motion pictures and once for television. Additionally, it has been adapted for the stage, most famously by the 69 Theatre Company in Manchester in the 1960s, which starred Vanessa Redgrave as the lead character Gwendolen Harleth. Although the "tale of Gwendolen'' has been called "one of the classics of English fiction," the portion of the narrative involving Daniel Deronda has been called "flat and unconvincing." Nevertheless, Zionism has been greatly influenced by Daniel's tale. In 1948, F. R. Leavis argued that the Jewish sections of The Great Tradition were its weakest and that a truncated version called Gwendolen Harleth should be printed on its own. Some Zionist commentators have advocated the opposite truncation, keeping the Jewish section, but with Gwendole's story omitted.

The novel Daniel Deronda was written by George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans), published in 1876 in eight parts. She opposed freely, against Jews discrimination, as a religious or racial group. The story of the novel moves around three main characters young idealistic Daniel Deronda, pretty haughty and self-centred Gwendolen Harleth and poor humble Mirah. In a fictional town Leubronn Daniel meets Gwendolen, her beauty attracts him. She desires for money and power and owing to her family circumstances she marries Grandcourt a wealthy man and tries to make him her slave. Daniel came to know his life mystery that his mother is a Jewish Opera singer who has given him to Sir Hugo to hide his Jewish identity. Thus he decides to marry Jewish girl Mirah whom he rescued earlier. Daniel and Mirah moves on to work for Jewish people national identity and restore the Promise land. It's a emblematic novel, through these characters Eliot represents distinct social, individual and political outlook. Gwendolen symbolises colonial ambition enslaving the others, Grandcourt is the face of haughty English aristocrat while Daniel Deronda and Mirah represent Jews Community.
