  • Résumé : "The Mill on the Floss" by George Eliot is a profound exploration of family dynamics, societal expectations, and personal growth set in the rural English countryside. The narrative centers around the Tulliver family, particularly the siblings Tom and Maggie Tulliver, who grow up at Dorlcote Mill. The novel opens with a vivid description of the mill and its surroundings, establishing a sense of place that is integral to the story. Mr. Tulliver, the head of the family, is determined to provide his son Tom with a good education, hoping it will secure a prosperous future for him. However, Tom is not academically inclined, which becomes a source of tension. Maggie, on the other hand, is intellectually curious and passionate, often finding herself at odds with societal norms and her family's expectations. Her intelligence and emotional depth are both a gift and a burden, as they lead her into conflicts with her family and community. The novel delves into themes of sibling rivalry, the constraints of gender roles, and the struggle for personal identity. As the Tulliver family faces financial ruin and social disgrace, the siblings' bond is tested. Eliot's narrative is rich with psychological insight and social commentary, reflecting the complexities of human relationships and the change in societal pressures. The story ultimately questions the possibility of reconciling personal desires with familial and societal obligations, leaving readers to ponder the nature of happiness and fulfillment.
