Abstract
Being brought up under certain circumstances, a child may become an egoist. If he is not capable to adjust himself to some situations, he may destroy himself by certain unpleasant problems. In George Eliot's novel Daniel Deronda, Gwendolen, an inborn egoist is not probably able to cope with some situations mainly after her marriage. As a matter of fact, she has been increasingly arrogant, rebellious, heartless, disapproving, unhappy. Under such a situation she has contributed to her husband, Grandcourt’s drowning.  Obviously, after her husband’s death, her future is dark for her. so, it can be admitted that she has ruined herself.
