Book excerpt: ▶ 목사의 생활 1857(Scenes of Clerical Life by George Eliot)은 작가 조지 엘리엇(George Eliot, 1819~1880)의 첫 번째 작품으로 세 개의 단편을 엮은 단편집입니다. 무엇보다 그녀의 이름을 세상에 알리기 시작한 최초의 작품이라는 중요한 의미가 있지요! ▷ 윌리엄 블랙우드(William Blackwood, 1776~1834)가 창간한 블랙우드 매거진(Blackwood's Magazine)을 통해 1857년 최초로 발표하였으며, 이듬해 1858년 출판사 블랙우드 앤 선(Blackwood and Sons)에서 단행본으로 출간되었습니다. ▷ 목사의 생활 1857(Scenes of Clerical Life by George Eliot)이란 제목에서 짐작할 수 있듯 세 편의 단편 모두 영국의 가상의 지방도시에 파견된 성공회 목회자(Anglican clergyman)가 중요한 캐릭터로 등장한다는 공통점이 있습니다. 짧은 단편이지만, 조지 엘리엇의 종교, 농촌의 사회 문제, 여성 문제 등에 대한 철학의 단면을 엿볼 수 있는 귀중한 작품으로 평가받습니다. 테마여행신문 TTN Korea 영어고전(English Classics)과 함께 어제도, 오늘도, 내일도 멋진 문학여행을! B ▶ It came when, at the age of thirty-six she began to write ‘Amos Barton,’ her first attempt at fiction, and one that fixed her career. The story appeared in ‘Blackwood’s Magazine,’ and was followed by ‘Mr. Gilfil’s Love Story’ and ‘Janet’s Repentance.’ Of the three, ‘Mr. Gilfil’s Love Story’ is perhaps the most finished and artistic; while ‘Amos Barton’ has qualities of humour and tenderness that have not often been equalled. ‘Janet’s Repentance,’ strong though it is, and containing the remarkable sketch of Mr. Tryan, is perhaps less surely attractive. ▷ 그녀가 서른여섯 살에 소설에 대한 첫 시도이자 그녀의 경력을 고정시킨 '아모스 바튼'을 쓰기 시작했을 때였습니다. 이 이야기는 '블랙우드 매거진'에 실렸고, '길필 씨의 러브 스토리'와 '자넷의 회개'가 뒤를 이었습니다. 세 작품 중 '길필 씨의 러브 스토리'는 아마도 가장 완성도가 높고 예술적인 작품일 것입니다. 반면 '아모스 바튼'은 종종 동등하지 않았던 유머와 부드러움의 특성을 가지고 있습니다. '자넷의 회개'는 강력하지만, 트라이언 씨의 놀라운 스케치를 담고 있어 아마도 덜 매력적일 것입니다. ▶ The Sad Fortunes Of The Rev. Amos Barton(아모스 바튼 목사의 슬픈 운명) : ▷ 아모스 바튼 목사(The Rev. Amos Barton)는 쉐퍼톤 교구 교회(the parish church of Shepperton)에 발령받은 신입 큐레이터(the new curate)입니다. 낯선 마을에 도착한 목사와 그의 아내 밀리(Milly)는 호의적이지 않은 마을 분위기에도 불구하고, 정통 기독교의 보급을 위해 고군분투하지만……. ▷ 밀리는 임신 중에도 남동생의 결혼에 반대한 캐콜라인 체를라스키 백작부인(Countess Caroline Czerlaski)이 잠시 머무르는 것을 허락하는 등 친절함을 베풀지만, 조산으로 인해 아이를 잃는 아픔을 겪습니다. 아이에 이어 아내까지 잃은 목사는 자신의 슬픈 운명을 감내하기가 쉽지 않습니다……. ▷ 극도의 슬픔을 겪은 목사에게 마을 사람들은 차츰 존경심과 동정심이 섞인 시선을 보내기 시작하지만, 그의 자리는 곧 새로운 목사의 부임으로 사라질 위기에 처합니다. 앞길이 막막해진 목사는 과연 어떤 선택을 해야 할까요? ▶ The husband was now advancing towards the dear mound from which he was so soon to be parted, perhaps for ever. He stood a few minutes reading over and over again the words on the tombstone, as if to assure himself that all the happy and unhappy past was a reality. For love is frightened at the intervals of insensibility and callousness that encroach by little and little on the dominion of grief, and it makes efforts to recall the keenness of the first anguish. ▷ 남편은 이제 어쩌면 영원히 헤어질 수 있는 소중한 언덕을 향해 나아가고 있었습니다. 그는 마치 모든 행복하고 불행했던 과거가 현실이라는 것을 스스로 확신하기 위해 몇 분 동안 비석에 있는 단어들을 반복해서 읽으며 서 있었습니다. 사랑은 슬픔의 지배권을 조금씩 잠식하는 무감각과 냉담함의 간격에 겁을 먹고, 첫 번뇌의 예리함을 떠올리려고 노력하기 때문입니다. ▶ Mr. Gilfil’s Love Story(길필 씨의 러브스토리) : ▷ 쉐퍼톤의 교구 목사(the vicar of Shepperton) 메이너드 길필(Maynard Gilfil)은 청년 시절 카테리나 사르티(Caterina Sarti), 일명 티나(Tina)를 열렬히 사랑하였습니다. 크리스토퍼 쉐브렐 경(Sir Christopher Cheverel)과 쉐브렐 부인(Lady Cheverel)이 키우는 그녀는 아버지를 잃은 이탈리아 고아죠. ▷ 그러나 티나는 길필이 아니라, 크리스토퍼 쉐브렐 경의 상속자 안토니 와이브로 선장(Captain Anthony Wybrow)에게 관심이 있었는데……. ▷ 와이브로는 이미 크리스토퍼 쉐브렐 경이 정해 놓은 신부 베아트리스 애셔 양(Miss Beatrice Assher)이 있음에도 불구하고, 티나의 관심을 딱히 거절하지 않고 즐기는 모습을 보여주던 중에……. 난데없이 사망합니다!! ▷ 과연 길필 씨는 사랑하는 남자를 하루아침에 잃은 티나의 사랑을 쟁취할 수 있을까요? ▶ In these hopes, and in the enjoyment of Tina’s nestling affection, Mr. Gilfil tasted a few months of perfect happiness. She had come to lean entirely on his love, and to find life sweet for his sake. Her continual languor and want of active interest was a natural consequence of bodily feebleness, and the prospect of her becoming a mother was a new ground for hoping the best. But the delicate plant had been too deeply bruised, and in the struggle to put forth a blossom it died. ▷ 이러한 희망과 티나의 집요한 애정을 만끽하며 길필 씨는 몇 달간의 완벽한 행복을 맛보았습니다. 그녀는 그의 사랑에 전적으로 기대게 되었고, 그를 위해 삶이 달콤하다는 것을 알게 되었습니다. 그녀의 지속적인 나른함과 적극적인 관심의 부족은 신체적 쇠약의 자연스러운 결과였고, 그녀가 어머니가 될 수 있다는 전망은 최고를 희망하는 새로운 배경이었습니다. 하지만 그 섬세한 식물은 너무 깊은 상처를 입었고, 꽃을 피우기 위한 투쟁에서 그것은 죽었습니다. ▶ Janet’s Repentance(자넷의 회개) : ▷ 밀비(Milby) 마을 패디포드 코몬의 안식의 예배당(the chapel of ease at Paddiford Common)에 부임한 트라이언 목사(Reverend Edgar Tryan)는 밀비 주민들이 기존의 큐레이터(the old curate, Mr Crewe)를 지지하는 파와 신입인 자신을 지지하는 파로 양분되어 있다는 것을 발견합니다. ▷ 변호사 로버트 뎀프스터(the lawyer Robert Dempster)는 미스터 크루(Mr Crewe)를 지지하는 정당을 이끌지만, 술에 취하면 아내 자넷을 학대하곤 합니다. 자넷은 남편의 술버릇에도 불구하고, 크루 목사를 무비판적으로 지지하는 것을 돕곤 했습니다. ▷ 그러나 어느 날 자넷은 술에 취한 남편을 피해 예배당에 머물려, 자신을 정성껏 돌봐준 목사에게 고마움을 느끼기 시작하는데...?! 불의의 사고로 부상을 입고, 병상에서 죽어가는 남편이 마침내 숨을 거두자, 자넷의 목사에 대한 호의는 한층 더 커져만 갑니다. 과연 자넷과 목사는 어떤 운명을 맞이할까요?! ▶ Where should she go? In what place would this demon that had re-entered her be scared back again? She walks rapidly along the street in the direction of the church. She is soon at the gate of the churchyard; she passes through it, and makes her way across the graves to a spot she knows—a spot where the turf was stirred not long ago, where a tomb is to be erected soon. It is very near the church wall, on the side which now lies in deep shadow, quite shut out from the rays of the westering sun by a projecting buttress. ▷ 그녀는 어디로 가야 합니까? 그녀에게 다시 들어온 이 악마는 어디서 다시 겁을 집어먹었을까요? 그녀는 교회 방향으로 길을 따라 빠르게 걷습니다. 그녀는 곧 교회 묘지의 문 앞에 도착합니다. 그녀는 그곳을 지나 무덤을 가로질러 얼마 전에 잔디밭을 휘젓고 무덤이 곧 세워질 곳인 그녀가 아는 곳으로 갑니다. 그것은 교회 벽 근처에 있으며, 지금은 깊은 그늘에 놓여 있고, 돌출된 버팀목에 의해 서쪽으로 향하는 태양의 광선으로부터 완전히 차단되어 있습니다. -목차(Index)- ▶ 프롤로그(Prologue). 테마여행신문 TTN Korea 영어고전(English Classics) 1,999선을 읽어야 하는 7가지 이유 ▶ 29가지 키워드로 읽는 조지 엘리엇(George Eliot, 1819~1880) 01. 조지 엘리엇이 여자?! 유명해진 이후에도 남성적인 필명을 고집한 19세기 영국의 여성 작가 01-1. 19세기 유럽에서 여성은 자신의 본명으로 작품을 출간할 수 없었나요?! 01-2. 19세기 유럽에서 활동한 여성작가의 필명(Pen Name) 01-3. 메리 앤 에번스는 자신의 작품이 독자들에게 ‘여성작가의 뻔한 로맨스’로 비춰지길 싫어했던 것 아닐까요? 01-4. 메리 앤 에번스는 그저 자신의 삶과 작가를 분리하고 싶었던 것 아닐까요? 02. 유부남과 24년간 동거한 후 61세의 나이로 21세 연하남과 결혼한 스캔들 메이커?! 03. 신데렐라 콤플렉스(Cinderella Complex)는 개나 줘버려! 04. 조지 엘리엇 작품 속 여주인공은 반드시 불행에 빠진다?! 05. 해럴드 블룸(Harold Bloom, 1930~2019)의 서구문학정전(The Western Canon)(1994) 15위 06. 해럴드 블룸(Harold Bloom, 1930~2019)의 세계문학의 천재들 사람이 알아야 할 모든 것(Genius : A Mosaic of One Hundred Exemplary Creative Minds, 2008) 제8장 VIII. 호드 Hod 위엄 07. 조지 엘리엇의 주요 작품(Works by George Eliot) 07-1. 조지 엘리엇의 목사의 생활 1857(Scenes of Clerical Life by George Eliot) 07-2. 조지 엘리엇의 아담 비드 1859(Adam Bede by George Eliot) 07-3. 조지 엘리엇의 벗겨진 베일 1859(The Lifted Veil by George Eliot) 07-4. 조지 엘리엇의 플로스 강변의 물방앗간 1860(The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot) & 톰과 매기 툴리버 1909(Tom and Maggie Tulliver by George Eliot) 07-5. 조지 엘리엇의 사일러스 매너 1861(Silas Marner by George Eliot) 07-6. 조지 엘리엇의 로몰라 1862(Romola by George Eliot) 07-7. 조지 엘리엇의 자콥의 형제 1864(Brother Jacob by George Eliot) 07-8. 조지 엘리엇의 진보주의자, 펠릭스 홀트 1866(Felix Holt, the Radical by George Eliot) 07-9. 조지 엘리엇의 리사가 왕을 사랑한 방법 1869(How Lisa Loved the King by George Eliot) 07-10. 조지 엘리엇의 미들마치 1871(Middlemarch by George Eliot) 07-11. 조지 엘리엇의 다니엘 데론다 1876(Daniel Deronda by George Eliot) 07-12. 조지 엘리엇의 테오프라스토스 서치의 인상 1879(Impressions of Theophrastus Such by George Eliot) 07-13. 조지 엘리엇의 조지 엘리엇 에세이 1883(The Essays of "George Eliot" by George Eliot) 07-14. 조지 엘리엇의 편지와 저널로 읽는 조지 엘리엇의 삶 3부작 1885(George Eliot's Life, as Related in Her Letters and Journals. by George Eliot) 08. 조지 엘리엇을 만날 수 있는 장소 TOP22(TOP22 Places to meet George Eliot) 09. 조지 엘리엇 원작의 영화·드라마 in IMDb 10. 오디오북으로 듣는 조지 엘리엇(Audio Books of George Eliot) 11. 조지 엘리엇 어록(George Eliot Quotes)(157) ▶ 조지 엘리엇의 목사의 생활 1857(Scenes of Clerical Life by George Eliot) Introduction. ▷ The Sad Fortunes Of The Rev.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scenes of Clerical Life is the title under which George Eliot's first published work of fiction, a collection of three short stories, was released in book form; it was the first of her works to be released under her famous pseudonym. The stories were first published in Blackwood's Magazine over the course of the year 1857, initially anonymously, before being released as a two-volume set by Blackwood and Sons in January 1858.The three stories are set during the last twenty years of the eighteenth century and the first half of the nineteenth century over a fifty year period. The stories take place in and around the fictional town of Milby in the English Midlands. Each of the Scenes concerns a different Anglican clergyman, but is not necessarily centred upon him. Eliot examines, among other things, the effects of religious reform and the tension between the Established and the Dissenting Churches on the clergymen and their congregations, and draws attention to various social issues, such as poverty, alcoholism, and domestic violence.At the age of 36, Marian (or Mary Ann) Evans was a renowned figure in Victorian intellectual circles, having contributed numerous articles to The Westminster Review and translated into English influential theological works by Ludwig Feuerbach and Baruch Spinoza. For her first foray into fiction she chose to adopt a nom de plume, 'George Eliot'. Her reasons for so doing are complex. While it was common for women to publish fiction under their own names, 'lady novelists' had a reputation with which Evans did not care to be associated. In 1856 she had published an essay in the Westminster Review entitled Silly Novels by Lady Novelists, which expounded her feelings on the subject. Moreover, the choice of a religious topic for "one of the most famous agnostics in the country" would have seemed ill-advised. The adoption of a pen name also served to obscure Evans' somewhat dubious marital status (she was openly living with the married George Henry Lewes).It was largely due to the persuasion and influence of Lewes that the three Scenes first appeared in John Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine.[1] He submitted the first story, The Sad Fortunes of the Reverend Amos Barton, on 6 November 1856. At first it appeared anonymously, at Lewes' insistence. "I am not at liberty to reveal the veil of anonymity - even as regards social position. Be pleased, therefore, to keep the whole secret." Public and professional curiosity was not to be suppressed, however, and on 5 February 1857 the author's 'identity' was revealed to Blackwood's: "Whatever may be the success of my stories, I shall be resolute in preserving my incognito ... and accordingly I subscribe myself, best and most sympathising of editors, Yours very truly George Eliot."For the settings of the stories, Eliot drew on her Warwickshire childhood. Chilvers Coton became Shepperton; Arbury Hall became Cheverel Manor, and its owner, Sir Roger Newdigate, Sir Christopher Cheverel. Nuneaton became Milby. Shepperton Church, described in detail in The Sad Fortunes of the Reverend Amos Barton, is recognisably that at Chilvers Coton. Further, the scandal attached to the curate of Chilvers Coton, whose wife was an intimate friend of the young Mary Ann Evans' mother, became the story of Amos Barton. Likewise, "Janet's Repentance" was largely based on events that took place in Nuneaton when the young Mary Anne Evans was at school, and which were recounted to her by her friend and mentor Maria Lewis. Mr Tryan is an idealised version of the evangelical curate John Edmund Jones, who died when Evans was aged twelve; the Dempsters seem to have been based on the lawyer J. W. Buchanan and his wife Nancy. Tryan's main area of concern, Paddiford Common, "hardly recognisable as a common at all", is similarly based on a real-life location, Stockingford.

Book excerpt: When Scenes of Clerical Life, George Eliot's first novel, was published anonymously in Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine in 1857, it was immediately recognized, in the words of Saturday Review, as `the production of a peculiar and remarkable writer'. The first readers, including Dickens and Thackeray, were struck by its humorous irony, the truthfulness of its presentation of the lives of ordinary men and women, and its compassionate acceptance of human weakness.

Book excerpt: George Eliot's fiction debut work contains three stories of the lives of clergymen, with the aim of disclosing the value hidden in the commonplace. "The Sad Fortunes of the Rev. Amos Barton" portrays a character who is hard to like and easy to ridicule. "Mr. Gilfil's Love-Story," brings forth conflicting value systems revolving around a young woman, Caterina, and two men. "Janet's Repentance" is an account of conversion from sinfulness to righteousness achieved through the selfless endeavors of a clergyman.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three novellas that brilliantly portray English country and clergy life at the turn of the nineteenth century from the author of Middlemarch. Initially appearing in Blackwood’s Magazine, this trio of linked stories comprises George Eliot’s first published work. Together they form a portrait of small-town life in Midlands, England, where changes are affecting both society at large and religious beliefs and institutions. In “The Sad Fortunes of Reverend Amos Barton,” the clergyman struggles to raise funds for church repairs and perform his parochial duties, while a target of gossip—both good and bad. Meanwhile, few in Shepperton can find fault with his shy and hardworking wife, who cares for their six children, stretching Barton’s meager salary—and herself—to the limit. Set before the arrival of Amos Barton, “Mr. Gilfil’s Love Story” features well-liked parish priest Maynard Gifil, who is known for smoking long pipes and preaching short sermons. Shockingly tumultuous events lead up to his marriage—including a love triangle, deception, and a murder plot. An argument over religious doctrine splits the market town of Milby into two factions in “Janet’s Repentance.” With the arrival of Reverend Tryan, a rumor spreads that Evangelicalism has invaded the parish, angering local lawyer Robert Dempster. But his long-suffering wife finds in Tryan a kindred spirit, leading her to embark on a new life. “The exquisite truth and delicacy, both of the humour and the pathos of those stories, I have never seen the like of.” —Charles Dickens “A first-rate novel, and its author takes rank at once among the masters of the art.” —The Times

For her first foray into fiction she chose to adopt a nom de plume, 'George Eliot'. Her reasons for so doing are complex. While it was common for women to publish fiction under their own names, 'lady novelists' had a reputation with which Evans did not care to be associated. In 1856 she had published an essay in the Westminster Review entitled Silly Novels by Lady Novelists, which expounded her feelings on the subject. Moreover, the choice of a religious topic for "one of the most famous agnostics in the country" would have seemed ill-advised. The adoption of a pen name also served to obscure Evans' somewhat dubious marital status (she was openly living with the married George Henry Lewes).

PLOT-The titular character is the new curate of the parish church of Shepperton, a village near Milby. A pious man, but "sadly unsuited to the practice of his profession,"[19] Barton attempts to ensure that his congregation remains firmly within the care of the Church of England. His stipend is inadequate, and he relies on the hard work of Milly, his wife, to help keep the family. Barton is new to the village and subscribes to unpopular religious ideas; not all of the congregation accept him, but he feels that it is especially important to imbue them with what he sees as orthodox Christian views. Barton and Milly become acquainted with Countess Caroline Czerlaski. When the Countess' brother, with whom she lives, gets engaged to be married to her maid, she leaves home in protest. Barton and his wife accept the Countess into their home, much to the disapproval of the congregation, who assume her to be his mistress. The Countess becomes a burden on the already stretched family, accepting their hospitality and contributing little herself. With Milly pregnant and ill, the children's nurse convinces the Countess to leave. Milly dies following the premature birth of her baby (who also dies) and Barton is plunged into sadness at the loss. Barton's parishioners, who were so unsympathetic to him as their minister, support him and his family in their grief: "There were men and women standing in that churchyard who had bandied vulgar jests about their pastor, and who had lightly charged him with sin, but now, when they saw him following the coffin, pale and haggard, he was consecrated anew by his great sorrow, and they looked at him with respectful pity." Just as Barton is beginning to come to terms with Milly's death, he get more bad news: the vicar, Mr. Carpe, will be taking over at Shepperton church. Barton is given six-months notice to leave. He has no choice but to comply, but is disheartened, having at last won the sympathies of the parishioners. Barton believes that the request was unfair, knowing that the vicar's brother-in-law is in search of a new parish in which to work. However, he resigns himself to the move and at length obtains a living in a distant manufacturing town. The story concludes twenty years later with Barton at his wife's grave with one of his daughters: Patty. In the intervening years much has changed for Barton; his children have grown up and gone their separate ways. His son Richard is particularly mentioned as having shown talent as an engineer. Patty remains with her father.... Mary Ann Evans (22 November 1819 - 22 December 1880; alternatively "Mary Anne" or "Marian"), known by her pen name George Eliot, was an English novelist, poet, journalist, translator and one of the leading writers of the Victorian era.
