ROMOLA
This historical novel is set in the fifteenth century, and is “a deep study of life in the city of Florence from an intellectual, artistic, religious, and social point of view”. It first appeared in fourteen parts published in
Cornhill Magazine
from July 1862 to August.
The story takes place amidst actual historical events during the Italian Renaissance, and includes in its plot several notable figures from Florentine history.
The content of this novel is distinctly different from the rest of Eliot’s oeuvre.
