About “Romola”

George Eliot's only historical novel is set in 15th century Florence under the Medici rule. It blends factual elements with fictional storytelling, focusing on Romola, a nearly saint-like character, and Tito Melema, an amoral and careless man whom she marries against her brother's advice. Her brother is also described as saintly, a priest. The novel offers a detailed portrayal of life in a wealthy Italian state during the Renaissance.
