Download or read book Lady Susan the Watsons and Sanditon written by Jane Austen and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'I am tired of submitting my will to the caprices of others-of resigning my own judgement in deference to those to whom I owe no duty, and for whom I feel no respect.' The unfinished fictions collected here are the novels and other writing that Jane Austen did not publish. The protagonist of the earliest story is Lady Susan, a sexual predator and a brilliant and manipulative sociopath. The Watsons, a tale of riches to rags, is set in a village deep in mud and misery where the Watson sisters waste away, day after dull day, waiting for the suitors who never appear. Sanditon, the novel interrupted by the author's death, is a topical satire on the niche marketing campaign waged by investors in the latest seaside resort, the fictional Sanditon, situated on England's over-supplied south coast. If The Watsons shares the disturbed life of a Chekhov short story, Sanditon's cast of eccentrics anticipates the zany world of Dickens. Experimental and sharp-elbowed, all three probe new areas of invention and push out beyond what we expect to find in a novel by Jane Austen. This edition collects together all Austen's unpublished adult fiction, poetry, and related writings, written in her late teens, in her late twenties, and in the year she died, aged forty-one. They contribute more than a dash of discomfort to our modern image of the romantic novelist and reveal Jane Austen's development as a writer.

This book was released on 2023-11-27 with total page 4463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Austen and Brontës: Complete Novels of Jane Austen, Charlotte Brontë, Emily Brontë & Anne Brontë is a monumental anthology that unites the full literary oeuvres of four of the most important and influential authors in English literature. This collection traverses the diverse landscapes of 19th-century British life, weaving together themes of love, independence, social status, and the clash between personal desires and societal expectations. The anthology is unique in its amalgamation of Austen's keen wit and social commentary with the passionate intensity and psychological depth of the Brontë sisters, offering readers a rich variety of styles and perspectives. Long celebrated standouts include 'Pride and Prejudice' and 'Jane Eyre', among others, representing the pinnacle of the era's literary achievements. The contributing authors, though contemporaneous, represent divergent experiences, backgrounds, and worldviews within the same historical period. Their works collectively reflect the nuanced evolution of the novel as a form and offer critical insights into the changing roles of women, both within the literary world and in society at large. The Brontës' raw emotional power and gothic elements contrast with Austen's brilliant satire of Georgian society, yet each author's work is a testament to the enduring power of narrative to challenge and reflect the complexities of human nature. This anthology is an indispensable resource for students, scholars, and anyone interested in 19th-century English literature. By juxtaposing the works of Austen and the Brontë sisters, it provides a unique opportunity to engage with the era's preeminent voices in a comprehensive dialogue. Readers will not only gain a deeper appreciation for the individual talents of each author but will also witness the collective evolution of the novel as a reflective and transformative medium. This collection is a treasure trove of literary mastery, inviting readers to explore the depths of human emotion, societal constraints, and the timeless pursuit of personal fulfillment.
Download or read book Jane Austen s Sanditon written by Arthur M. Axelrad and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Jane Austen died in 1817, she left behind 120 pages of manuscript that would eventually be published as Sanditon. Praised by some critics and condemned by others, this final effort by the great English writer has for the most part been overlooked in favor of the novels that were published during her lifetime and shortly after her death. For the first time, an entire book is devoted to examining this fragment to establish it as Jane Austen's potential masterpiece. With a new setting and a greater range of characters than found in earlier works, this novel composed during the last months of her short life, if completed, would at the same time have continued her series of magnificent novels and created new possibilities for novels to come.
