  Baron Eliot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Although the title Lord Eliot was in use much earlier, the peerage title Baron Eliot was formally created on January 13, 1784 in the Peerage of Great Britain for Edward Eliot, later Edward Craggs-Eliot (July 8, 1727 - February 17, 1804).
His son, John Eliot (September 30, 1761 - November 17, 1823), was created Earl of St Germans on November 28, 1815, with which title the Barony then merged.
Baron Eliot (or Lord Eliot) is customarily used as a courtesy title by the Heir Apparent to the Earldom.

 2 George Eliot's Knowledge of the Visual Arts
Of the notable private collections in London, Eliot knew at least two: B. Windus's famous collection of Turners in Tottenham, which she saw in 1850, and Alfred Morrison's collection at Carlton House Terrace, which she saw in 1872 and again in 1874.
It was, George Eliot told John Blackwood, her "first journey to the greatest centres of art." During [12/13] this tour of Italy, Eliot conceived Romola and gathered some of the material she was to use in the Rome chapters of Middlemarch.
George Eliot delighted in success by women artists of all kinds at the moment when her own reputation as a novelist was hanging in the balance.

 10 Conclusion
For Ruskin and Eliot, the faithful study of nature is not an end in itself but a means of attaining a selfless perception of truth and beauty.
By the same token, the reader must scan George Eliot's literary problem pictures carefully if he is to perceive how the absence of an unlawful member of the family group subverts the benign conventions of the conversation piece.
It was chiefly Ruskin who taught Eliot to see the art of landscape as a marriage of naturalistic and emblematic techniques.

 One Feminist Icon, Char-Broiled
Lieblich acknowledges Baron's prickly nature in Conversations with Dvora by having her say, "I am a judgmental woman, and was even more so in my youth, when my eyes first opened." The tension in Baron's work, as Lieblich shows, derives from the fact that she was both bitter *and* nostalgic.
She suggests that Baron withdrew her daughter from school because Tsipora suffered from epilepsy, and that Baron's seclusion resulted partly from her bitterness towards peers, engendered by criticism she and Aharonovitch received when they resigned the editorship of 'The Young Worker'.
Baron's radical decisions become comprehensible when we consider that even today, the juggling of female roles is a source of constant conflict for women.

 Yale Alumni Magazine: Arts & Culture
Eliot was an anti-Semite, though his variety of that spiritual illness never achieved the obsessive intensity of his close friend, Ezra Pound.
Eliot never asserted that his major poem was a vision of a world stricken by the absence of Christian culture, but the Eliotic critics always interpreted the poem as a voice in the wilderness, crying out for the return of Christian, classical, and conservative ideas of order.
Baron, on the other hand, demonstrates that our suburbs are not necessarily so biologically depauperate, nor fear of predators so distant, as we might think.
