Such theoretical eclecticism, when focused on a common reference point, necessarily opens out into a dialogue among critical and interpretive models. Theory throws light onto \u003ci\u003eRomola\u003c\/i\u003e, just as \u003ci\u003eRomola\u003c\/i\u003e throws light onto theory.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46931359563927,"sku":"9781138385764","price":9961.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781138385764.webp?v=1771612816","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/from-author-to-text-re-reading-george-eliots-romola-9781138385764","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
