Since the late nineteenth century, biographers and scholars have examined George Eliot's life and work in order to resolve what have been described as "unconventionalities", "inconsistencies", and "paradoxes" between the stories she wrote, the life she lived, and her socio-political convictions. Contemporary biographers made distinctly different claims on her literary and cultural legacy, branding her either conservative or radical according to their own perceptions and agenda while modern academics like Rosemarie Bodenheimer and Tom Dolin have labeled her both a "sibyl" and a "rebel".

520 $a Since the late nineteenth century, biographers and scholars have examined George Eliot's life and work in order to resolve what have been described as "unconventionalities", "inconsistencies", and "paradoxes" between the stories she wrote, the life she lived, and her socio-political convictions. Contemporary biographers made distinctly different claims on her literary and cultural legacy, branding her either conservative or radical according to their own perceptions and agenda while modern academics like Rosemarie Bodenheimer and Tom Dolin have labeled her both a "sibyl" and a "rebel".
520 $a Eliot was a complex, intelligent, and talented woman who was both of and before her time. While perceived paradoxes of her life and work are largely explained by the influence of prevailing Victorian middle-class ideologies, the veneration of Eliot the author by the same Victorian society that ostracized Eliot the woman for her illicit relationship with a married man is the true Eliot paradox.
