 note = {John Ruskin's influence on George Eliot, especially on her ideas about political economy, has attracted relatively little critical attention. This article offers a reading of Middlemarch which seeks to demonstrate that the thoughts of the novel's heroine, Dorothea Brooke, echo various ideas Ruskin put forward in his socio-political writings, including Unto This Last and Munera Pulveris. It goes on to suggest that, as characters, Dorothea Brooke and Will Ladislaw can be viewed as representatives of Eliot's idealism. Stressing the similarity between their ideas and Ruskin's, it further explores how Dorothea endeavours to put her idealist concepts into practice. The article argues that Eliot, who is often described as a realist, drew on the ideas of Ruskin and a larger tradition of Romantic idealism, with Ruskin's influence helping to account for the distinctiveness of George Eliot's work and the unique position she came to occupy among Victorian novelists.},
