Author: MARGHANITA LASKI
Title: Jane Austen
Description: Groothandel / BESTEL, 1986. Paperback. Pp: 143. Jane Austen sprang from the upper middle class society of late eighteenth century southern England. Orthodox in morals and religion, generally Tory in politics - this was the milieu which she describes so memorably in her novels. Indeed her environment provided her with material ideally suited to her talents: accurate observation of character, wit, dramatic intuition, an ear for realistic dialogue and a highly disciplined formal sense. These gifts, evident in the early and satirical novels, Northanger Abbey and Sense and Sensibility, found their perfect expression in the great books of her maturity, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, Emma and Persuasion. The novelist and critic Marghanita Laski brings to this illustrated biography the fruits of a long and loving study of Jane Austen, her work, letters, and her time. ISBN: 9780500260159. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
