书籍简介

“查特吉的《米德尔马契》将是课堂的天赐之物。 这个补充丰富的版本清楚地表明了为什么值得致力于这部长篇小说，因为查特吉为艾略特继续为我们提供了道德生活的资源。”

——黛德丽·肖娜·林奇，哈佛大学

“凭借其广泛的补充材料和前沿的二次批评，这个新版本为当代读者提供了理解艾略特和她的环境、欣赏《米德尔马契》的复杂性以及获得从艾略特时代到我们自己时代的令人难以置信的阅读范围的理想框架。 丰富了我们对小说的体验。 查特吉教授的编辑印章和注释使本书成为初次阅读这部小说的读者以及重新阅读该小说的读者的都可以去阅读的作品，因为我们今天继续努力解决许多与艾略特的《米德尔马契》相同的问题。”

——Carolyn Lesjak，西蒙弗雷泽大学

“Ronjaunee Chatterjee 在她的新的、无疑是专业的版本中为乔治·艾略特的《米德尔马契》的教学和研究设定了标准。Chatterjee 不仅用她有益的注解抢占了那些可能不熟悉维多利亚时代神职人员的微妙分层的好奇读者的询问，而且她还 邀请我们思考“对地方生活的研究”到底是多么非孤立； 查特吉迫使我们扩大读者的视野，洞察米德尔马奇的国际化和殖民纠葛。 和叙述者一样，读者仍然会发现自己“在解开某些人类命运方面还有很多事情要做。”但有了诺顿批判版，他们还将找到在他们独特的地点解开米德尔马奇的“特定网络”的支持。 此外，查特吉还向读者提供了探索“一系列诱人的宇宙相关事物”的诱因，这些事物构成了小说的历史背景及其当代的紧迫性。

——Lorenzo Servitje，里哈伊大学

“Chatterjee’s Middlemarch will be a godsend for the classroom. This richly supplemented edition makes it clear why it’s worth committing to this long novel as Chatterjee brings to the fore the resources for ethical living that Eliot continues to offer us.”

―Deidre Shauna Lynch, Harvard University

“With its extensive supplementary materials and cutting-edge secondary criticism, this new edition offers contemporary readers the ideal framework for understanding Eliot and her milieu, appreciating the complexities of Middlemarch, and gaining access to an incredible range of readings from Eliot’s time to our own that enrich our experience of the novel. Professor Chatterjee’s editorial chops and comprehensive annotations make this a must-read for first-time readers of the novel, as well as those returning to it, as we continue to grapple today with many of the same questions that animate Eliot’s Middlemarch.”

―Carolyn Lesjak, Simon Fraser University

“Ronjaunee Chatterjee sets the standard for teaching and researching George Eliot’s Middlemarch in her new, surely definitive edition.?Chatterjee not only preempts queries from the curious reader who might be unfamiliar with the nuanced stratifications of Victorian clergy with her helpful glosses, but she also invites us to consider just how noninsular ‘a study of provincial life’ proves to be; Chatterjee compels us to expand our readerly lenses and discern Middlemarch’s cosmopolitan and colonial entanglements. Like the narrator, readers will still find themselves left with ‘much to do in unraveling certain human lots.’ But with the Norton Critical Edition, they will also find the support to unpack Middlemarch’s ‘particular webs’ in their unique localities. Too, Chatterjee supplies readers with inducement to explore the ‘tempting range of relevancies called the universe’ that constitute the novel’s historical contexts and its contemporary exigencies.”

―Lorenzo Servitje, Lehigh University
