📖

George Eliot was a major novelist in Victorian England and clearly displays INTJ characteristics. Her representative works 'Middlemarch' and 'The Watermill on the River Plos' are based on deep insight into human psychology and sophisticated realist depictions of social reality. This is interpreted as a manifestation of analytical thinking (T), which digs into the essence of INTJ, and intuition (N), which seeks to understand complex systems. She enhanced the perfection of her work by closely exploring the inner lives of complex characters. George Eliot communicated indirectly with the public by publishing his works under a male pen name. This choice reflects INTJ's strategic and goal-oriented tendency (J), which wanted to be evaluated only on the merits of the work itself amidst the prejudice against female writers at the time. She chose to focus on the message of her work rather than her personal identity. Her practical interests in literature, philosophy, country life, and the exploration of human psychology are consistent with the INTJ's introverted (I) nature and tendency to seek in-depth knowledge. These activities connect with her personal way of recharging herself mentally, drawing energy from internal contemplation rather than external stimulation, and immersing herself in complex issues.
