Download or read book Jane Austen and the Body written by John Wiltshire and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1992-09-24 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jane Austen has been thought of as a novelist of manners whose work discreetly avoids discussing the physical. John Wiltshire shows, on the contrary, how important are bodies and faces, illness and health, in the novels, from complainers and invalids such as Mrs. Bennet and Mr. Woodhouse, to the frail, debilitated Fanny Price, the vulnerable Jane Fairfax and the "picture of health," Emma. The book draws on modern theories of the body, and on eighteenth-century medical sources, to give a fresh and controversial reading of familiar texts.

Download or read book The Dark Side of Jane Austen s World written by Angela Youngman and published by Pen and Sword History. This book was released on 2024-10-30 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jane Austen’s novels are read all over the globe, and adaptations of her works have graced both film and TV screens. Although sometimes criticised for being detached from the real world, providing nothing more than light-hearted plot-driven story lines, the reality is very different. Jane was aware of the evils of society, of the problems faced by women whether single or married. Underneath the entertaining story lines are much darker aspects of Regency and Georgian life. Staying single resulted in serious problems for young women; there were very few alternatives open to them, while marriage itself resulted in other risks. The threats of poverty or becoming a victim of crime were also an issue. Indeed, Jane’s aunt spent months in prison and faced the threat of transportation for theft. Other problems society faced included those posed by opium addiction, poor medical standards, and a lack of property leaving young men and women struggling to survive. Many sought solutions in India, leading to the creation of ‘fishing fleets’ with girls sent to marry total unknowns. Meanwhile, the issues of slavery brought more problems, and social disorder was rife. Jane Austen created classic stories that have endured the test of time, reflecting society in all its aspects, faults, values both good and bad. This is Jane Austen as you have never seen her before.

Book excerpt: God is a God of grace and you will find him as such every day of the year as you open this devotional. Following a chronological reading plan, Gods grace shines gloriously from Genesis through Revelation. Each daily devotion consists of a concise synopsis of a portion of that days Scripture, a suggested way in which we might see Gods grace similarly today, and concludes with application questions. In other words: what it says, what it says to us, what it means for us. Each day is completed with a prayer that could be the starting gate for your own private time with God. If you choose to use it as such, this devotional could be a springboard for your personal journal. While questions are included each day, it is highly possible that God will take you in an entirely different direction. Trust him and ask him to show you his grace that is sufficient for you each day. In addition, for those who like to go a little deeper, supporting Scripture verses are included in the text for further study.
