George Eliot is the most remarkable among the women novelists of the 19th century. We can find that memory plays an important role in almost all of her works. The Mill on The Floss is the best work that George Eliot ever produced, and memory is perhaps the central element in the structure of it, acting as a means of transcending the unstructured world, in which past and present are unified. It can also place the individual in contact with the felt experience of the past, and allow an individual to act in accordance with his whole experience.
