unhistoric acts

Adapted from the line:

The growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs.

In the George Eliot Novel, Middlemarsh.

According to Wikipedia, Middlemarch, A Study of Provincial Life is a novel by English author George Eliot. It appeared in eight installments (volumes) in 1871 and 1872. Set in Middlemarch, a fictional English Midlands town, in 1829 to 1832, it follows distinct, intersecting stories with many characters. Issues include the status of women, the nature of marriage, idealism, self-interest, religion, hypocrisy, political reform, and education. Leavened with comic elements, Middlemarch approaches significant historical events in a realist mode: the Reform Act 1832, early railways, and the accession of King William IV. It looks at medicine of the time and reactionary views in a settled community facing unwelcome change. Eliot began writing the two pieces that formed the novel in 1869–1870 and completed it in 1871. Initial reviews were mixed, but it is now seen widely as her best work and one of the great English novels.

Notice the pronoun in the last sentence.

… now seen widely as her best work and one of the great English novels.

You see, George Eliot was the pen name of one Mary Ann Evans.

Who, again according to Wikipedia, … was known by her pen name George Eliot, was an English novelist, poet, journalist, translator, and one of the leading writers of the Victorian era.[3] She wrote seven novels: Adam Bede (1859), The Mill on the Floss (1860), Silas Marner (1861), Romola (1862–1863), Felix Holt, the Radical (1866), Middlemarch (1871–1872) and Daniel Deronda (1876). As with Charles Dickens and Thomas Hardy, she emerged from provincial England; most of her works are set there. Her works are known for their realism, psychological insight, sense of place and detailed depiction of the countryside. Middlemarch was described by the novelist Virginia Woolf as “one of the few English novels written for grown-up people” and by Martin Amis and Julian Barnes as the greatest novel in the English language.

Pronouns.

Really?

The number of headlines today that start with that man’s name is beyond understand until you grasp, that is what they want.

LOOK AT THE MAN behind the curtain.

WATCH WHAT he is doing, while the real people in charge remove pronouns and other acts so egregious it is beyond words.

And as long as the focus is on that man, they are winning.

Even this morning, the Toronto Star led with, WHO WILL STAND UP TO THAT MAN …

As long as the focus is on the man, the real damage and the real danger is hidden, right there in plain sight.

I guess it is right that the growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs.”
