Abstracts:
The paper deals with some issues which impacted the writings of the end of the 19th century, in particular, in George Eliot’s novels. The peculiarities of plot structuring in Late-Victorian novel, the difference between Victorian and Late-Victorian writings and a new type of hero and heroine are under analysis. The characters represented as ordinary people from «lower» classes that become full-right members of society with stronger true-to-life effect than in other arts. The type of a heroine, a «new woman», is under study as well. The paper is also focused on the changing notion of identity concentrated on the dominating role of male which was a characteristic of Mid-Victorian prose.
