| | Literary Encyclopedia: Adam Bede |
 | | Adam, Seth, and Dinah think of others and are thus the favoured characters in the novel, though Seth qualifies this with his timid passivity, and Dinah, with her doubtful self-image as an instrument of God and not a potential member of a family or community. | | | The central character of Adam was based (loosely) upon her father and that of Dinah (again with due allowance for poetic license) upon her aunt. | | | Bede, and is warmly received, largely, Eliot hints, for her tactful compassion rather than any biblical sermonizing. |

| | §24. "Adam Bede". XI. The Political And Social Novel. Vol. 13. The Victorian Age, Part One. The Cambridge History ... |
| | As was frequently the case with the Victorian novel, the conclusion of Adam Bede is long drawn-out—in this instance, probably, with the design of reconciling the reader to Adam’s second love, for Dinah, and to his marriage with her. | | | Strangely enough, the relation between Adam and Dinah, which, according to the ordinary laws of fiction could only end in their ultimate union, was not suggested to George Eliot by Lewes till she had made some progress with the story. | | | But it is in the characters of the novel themselves that the author’s creative power already appears at its height in Adam Bede, and that she gives proof of that penetrating perception of the inner springs of human action which, without exaggeration, has been called Shakespearean. |

| | Barbara Hardy, from The Tragic Process: Adam Bede |
| | I must remind you again, that Adam had the blood of the peasant in his veins, and that since he was in his prime half a century ago, you must expect some of his characteristics to be obsolete. | | | As early as Adam Bede her own definition of the kind of tragedy which appeals "through pity and terror, rather than through admiration and delights" ceases to be an exactly appropriate description of what we find in her novels. | | | Whenever Adam was strongly convinced of any proposition, it took the form of a principle in his mind: it was knowledge to be acted on, as much as the knowledge that damp will cause rust. |

| | Adam Bede - Eliot and Methodism in Adam Bede |
| | Adam Bede was based on a story told to Eliot by one of her Methodist aunts, a tragicomedy, and the moral of the novel is that man cannot escape the results of his actions (Wiesenfarth 145). | | | Adam Bede is a novel of English pastoral life (Magill 26). Eliot's commentary on John Wesley's Methodism comes most notably through the character Dinah Morris; however, the other characters' actions also reflect Eliot's view of Methodism. | | | Adam Bede - Eliot and Methodism in Adam Bede |

| | The evocations of bygone rural life for which Adam Bede was so resoundingly praised on its publication in 1859 are charged with a personal passion that intensifies the novel's outer dramas of seduction and betrayal, and inner dramas of moral growth and redemption. | | | Throughout "Adam Bede", the better-drawn and more interesting characters are the women. | | | Those involved in her ensuing tragedy are sensitive, honest Adam Bebe, implicated by his simple idolatry and his fruitless struggles to redeem her, and Dinah, her devout and constant cousin, who comforts her when all appears to be lost. |

| | Inspired by an anecdote told to George Eliot by her aunt, ADAM BEDE is notable for its extraordinarily realistic characters and convincing depiction of English rural life, complete with the earthy Derbyshire dialect of the title character. | | | ADAM BEDE has also become famous for Eliot's groundbreaking defense, in chapter 17, of realism in art: "I aspire to give no more than a faithful account of men and things as they have mirrored themselves in my mind. | | | It is the story of Hetty Sorrel, the dairymaid who spurns the working-class Adam, a carpenter, for the faithless lord of the manor, and is abandoned by him after she becomes pregnant. |

| | The good live on in Adam Bede, and though in a sense it's an improvement that the "workaholics" Adam and Dinah open their hearts to each other, in another sense the possibly proto-feminist preacher Dinah becomes conventional (and even shows an example of submission in willingly giving up her vocation). | | | Marielle also rightly refers to this last heroine of Eliot's as in some ways her most "modern." But in Eliot's first novel, Adam Bede, Hetty Sorrel is also profoundly homeless, and this too is connected with her heartlessness. | | | After my class read the first third of the book, many of them asked why it was called Adam Bede, when there was so much in the book about others in the community; he didn't seem the most important one. |

| | Adam Bede by George Eliot |
| | ADAM BEDE is a thrilling read, though it may seem hard to believe given the unpromising setting and the stilted way Eliot introduces her story. | | | At the heart of ADAM BEDE is a story so sordid I wonder whether it could be broadcast on network TV today, and Eliot tells it without vulgarity but without ever shying away from its ugliness. | | | My most serious criticism of the book is that Eliot didn't quite trust herself enough not to tack an unconvincing (and, worse, uninteresting) happy ending onto her story. |

| | George Eliot (Marian Evans) published Adam Bede early in her career as a novelist, while her identity as author was still unknown, but it made her reputation as a "realist" author concerned with the homely experiences of rural working people. | | | It is not surprising, given George Eliot's concerns with ethics and realist truth in everyday problems, that Adam Bede provides an extended reflection on the causes and consequences of undesired pregnancy. | | | Although good Adam woos Hetty, she is distracted by the idle attentions of Captain Arthur Donnithorne, and when Adam finds out, he fights Arthur, who leaves town. |

| | Adam Bede by George Eliot Introduction by Joanna Trollope |
| | While Adam Bede represents a timeless story of seduction and betrayal, it is also a deeper, impassioned meditation on the irrevocable consequences of human actions and on moral growth and redemption through suffering. | | | Eliot herself called it “a country story—full of the breath of cows and scent of hay.” Adam Bede is an earnest and virtuous carpenter who is betrayed by his love, Hetty Sorrel, a pretty yet foolish dairymaid who is seduced by a careless young villager. | | | Hailed for its sympathetic and accurate rendering of nineteenth-century English pastoral life, Adam Bede was George Eliot& first full-length novel and a bestseller from the moment of publication. |

| | Thesis on Fig. Language in Adam Bede |
| | George Eliot presents a wide range of attitudes and values in the characters throughout her story, “Adam Bede.” Because there are varied characterizations, Eliot uses figurative language to identify and describe each one. | | | By employing a more creative and dramatic style of writing, Eliot makes Dinah’s character more understandable, and her values more apparent. | | | This strength in her character makes her more graspable to the reader and easier to bond with, and in “Adam Bede”, this bond between the characters and the reader is what makes the story so strong. |

| | Our annual book group "classic" was George Eliot's Adam Bede (Penguin Classics), which we admired for its detailed and sympathetic portrayal of the lives and characters of several contrasting women, notably Dinah Morris, the Methodist preacher, based on Eliot's own aunt. | | | This interest led us to study the subject of infanticide, the history of women preachers and to visit several Midlands places connected with Eliot's early life - a prime example of our pleasure in reading and discussion leading to further knowledge and understanding. | | | No literary aspiration here: Yeager tells, through some quaint West Virginia idiom, a gripping and illuminating story of a remarkable life of excitement and a frightening degree of risk. |
