	George Henry Lewes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		George Henry Lewes (April 18, 1817–November 28, 1878) was an English philosopher and literary critic.
		He is more notable now as the extramarital partner of the novelist Mary Ann Evans, better known by her pen name of George Eliot, with whom he lived from 1854 until his death.
		Lewes had been interested in philosophy from early youth; one of his earliest essays was an appreciative account of Regal's Aesthetics.

		Lewes was a man of marvellous literary versatility as essayist, novelist, biographer and expositor of popular science.
		But, for a long time, Lewes had been at work on investigations of a more constructive and original kind, partly philosophical and partly scientific, the results of which were not fully published at the time of his death in 1878.
		But Lewes had fitted himself for writing, not only by original researches in physiology and related branches of science, but, also, by a considerable and sympathetic study of modern philosophy.

		GEORGE HENRY LEWES (1817-1878), British philosopher and literary critic, was born in London in 1817.
		In any case Lewes cannot be said to have done much to aid in the settlement of properly philosophical questions.
		His whole treatment of the question of the relation of subject to object is vitiated by a confusion between the scientific truth that mind and body coexist in the living organism and the philosophic truth that all knowledge of objects implies a knowing subject.

		Lewes was born in London on 18 April 1817; the illegitimate son of the minor poet John Lee Lewes and Elizabeth Ashweek and grandson of the famous comic actor Charles Lee Lewes.
		Lewes' first major and most enduring literary friendship was with Leigh Hunt, Percy Shelley's Bohemian friend, who published his early articles; his first bid for literary prominence was to propose through Leigh Hunt a life of Percy Shelley, but Mary Shelley rejected the idea because she disliked literary biography.
		Lewes was in part drawn to life-writing because he thought he could use the genre to introduce European philosophy to a British audience, as he was to evidence in his A Biographical History of Philosophy (1845-6) and The Life of Maximilien Robespierre (1849).

	Lewes and psychology
		Lewes was subsequently missing from all of the well-known general histories of psychology (e.g., Heidbreder; Flugel; Murphy; R.I. Watson).
		In contrast, GHL's conception of the importance of social phenomena for mental science is a departure from the traditional associationist method and is traceable to the influence of Comte.
		That is, while Lewes agrees with Spencer in laying special stress on physiology and biological evolution as a basis for psychological phenomena, he "does not go to Spencer's length of regarding the biological standpoint as furnishing the only scientific element in psychology" (Warren, p.
