Jane Austen: Family History - Pedigree of Austen and Austen Papers 1704-1856 (Hardcover)

,
There have been more studies, critical books, and learned articles produced over the years about Jane Austen than of any other English literary great with the exception of William Shakespeare. The flow of these studies greatly increased in the latter part of this century. Her novels, juvenilia and surviving letters have been intensively researched. Added to this, there is an ever growing interest in her life, times, the importance to her writing of a sense of place, and in her familial and social relationships. To study her work within this wider context, the student needs to refer to the source texts, some written by members of her family after her death, printed in small printings and now both scarce and valuable.
