TR 11:10 AM

Park Hall 144


Are we still living in "Jane Austen's World"? This semester we'll be closely reading three of Austen's novels along with studying their historical and literary context. After reading Pride and Prejudice, Emma, and Persuasion, we'll then turn to their status in contemporary culture. In addition to reading two literary responses to Pride and Prejudice (Longbourn and Pride), we'll also be reading and studying fan fiction and viewing recent adaptations of the novels.
