Abstract

This study focuses on the problem of the appreciation of Women’s status in Victorian period. It aims at bringing out the value of women of the victorian era and to reduce people’s negative appreciations of women’s affairs with a special reference to George Eliot’s Felix Holt The Radical. To achieve our goal, we have used psychoanalysis and New Historicism as literary theories to critically overview of women’s status in George Eliot ‘s Felix Holt, The Radical. Our analyses have revealed that George Eliot resorts to his fictional work as a strategy to depict women’s status. She also points up in her novel the real roles played by women that impact daily live in her period.
