¶A collection of scholarly articles thought to have been influential in the writing of Daniel Deronda. An article by Mary Kay Temple in the South Atlantic Review (May 1989) argues that Literary Remains was paraphrased and quoted liberally in Eliot's research notes for the 1876 novel. It has also been suggested that Deutsch, 1829-1873, librarian at the British Museum and sometime Hebrew tutor to George Eliot, provided the model for the character of Mordecai.
