This fully updated edition of the acclaimed Cambridge Companion offers clear, accessible coverage of the intricacies of Austen's works in their historical context, with biographical information and suggestions for further reading. Major scholars address Austen's six novels, the letters and other works, in terms accessible to students and the many general readers, as well as to academics. With seven new essays, the Companion now covers topics that have become central to recent Austen studies, for example, gender, sociability, economics, and the increasing number of screen adaptations of the novels"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000433437 520__ $$a"The image that Henry Austen creates - at odds with the evidence that both Austen's letters and her publishing decisions offer of her professionalism - is precisely the one that so annoyed Henry James, according to Brian Southam: 'the myth of the inspired amateur, the homely spinster who put down her knitting needles to take up her pen'. That myth, and others like it, have prevented subsequent readers from understanding that, for Austen, being a professional writer was, apart from her family, more important to her than anything else in her life. Austen wrote when opportunities for women to publish had never been greater, and from her childhood her aim was to see her works in print. She collected her juvenilia in volumes made to resemble published books as closely as possible"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000433437 60010 $$aAusten, Jane,$$d1775-1817$$xCriticism and interpretation. 000433437 650_0 $$aWomen and literature$$zEngland$$xHistory$$y19th century. 000433437 650_0 $$aRomance fiction, English$$xHistory and criticism. 000433437 7001_ $$aCopeland, Edward. 000433437 7001_ $$aMcMaster, Juliet. 000433437 830_0 $$aCambridge companions to literature. 000433437 85200 $$bgen$$hPR4036$$i.C3$$i2011 000433437 85642 $$3Cover image$$uhttp://assets.cambridge.org/97805217/63080/cover/9780521763080.jpg 000433437 85642 $$3Contributor biographical information$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1012/2010033971-b.html 000433437 85642 $$3Publisher description$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1012/2010033971-d.html 000433437 85641 $$3Table of contents only$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1012/2010033971-t.html 000433437 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:433437$$pGLOBAL_SET 000433437 980__ $$aBIB 000433437 980__ $$aBOOK
