Böcker av Beryl Gray

A treatise which explores the extent to which music played a role in the literary works of George Eliot. The author concentrates principally on "The Mill on the Floss", "Middlemarch" and "Daniel Deronda" and argues that music was an indispensable component of each of these works.

In her study of Dickens's relationship to canines, Gray shows that dogs, real and invented, were intrinsic to Dickens's vision and experience of London and its representation. She makes use of personal reminiscences, periodicals, images of dogs by portrait artists and Dickens's illustrators.
