Adam Bede ( VI）亚当·柏德（英文版） (English Edition)

Adam Bede, the first novel written by George Eliot (the pen name of Mary Ann Evans), was published in 1859.The novel is a discussion of class and education and also of religion and love. Adam Bede carried its readers back sixty years to the lush countryside of Eliot's native Warwickshire, and a time of impending change for England and the wider world. Pretty Hetty Sorrel is loved by the village carpenter Adam Bede, but her head is turned by the attentions of the fickle young squire, Arthur Donnithorne. Betrayed by their innocence, vanity, and imprudence, their foolish hearts lead them to a tragic triangle of seduction, murder, and retribution. Faith, in the figure of Methodist preacher Dinah Morris, offers redemption to all who are willing to embrace it. Eliot's powerful portrayal of the interaction of ordinary people brought a new social realism to the novel, in which humour and tragedy co-exist, and fellow-feeling is the mainstay of human relationships.
