Jane Austen Criticism
Cliffs Notes: Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice
Jane Austen's most popular and well-known work, Pride and Prejudice follows Elizabeth Bennet and her sisters as they navigate the social milieu of provincial 18th-century England.
Cliffs Notes: Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility
The Dashwood sisters are very different from each other in appearance and temperament; Elinor's good sense and readiness to observe social forms contrast with Marianne's impulsive candor and warm but excessive sensibility.
Postcolonial Jane Austen
This cutting-edge volume bridges two significant bodies of recent Austen scholarship, one emphasising the issue of gender and one centralising the history of colonialism and slavery.
The Cambridge Companion to Jane Austen
A comprehensive guide to Jane Austen's novels and letters in the contexts of her contemporary world, and of present-day critical discourse.
From Jane Austen to Joseph Conrad
David Daisches, Douglas Bush, Robert B. Heilman, Arthur Mizener, and William Van P?Connor are among the contributors to this volume of essays on the nineteenth-century British novel.
Cliffs Notes: Austen's Emma
Jane Austen enjoyed writing with satiric stabs at manners and social classes. Emma Woodhouse's story is a progression in self-deception, both entertaining in a mild comic tone and a lesson for the moralist. A delightful story retold often by Hollywood.
