Quanto mais nostálgicas e românticas se tornam as noções que apresentam sobre mundo idealizado de Austen, mais claramente podemos perceber as carências que fazem com que assim o percebam. Portanto, o objetivo desta tese é apresentar uma leitura de The Jane Austen Book Club através da aproximação com a obra de Austen, e assim entender o que as personagens de Fowler estão procurando, e por quê. A premissa é que essa busca revela muito a respeito do mundo contemporâneo.

Abstract:
Part One of my dissertation explores Jane Austen’s attitudes towards female readers, as manifested both in the fictionalised scenes of reading in her novels and in her complex and allusive use of her own reading in both the novels and her letters. I contextualise Austen’s novels within eighteenth-century anxieties about reading women and women’s reading, specifically discussing Austen’s interactions with the conservative conduct literature of the mid- to late-eighteenth century. Through a discussion of Austen’s relationship with her literary predecessors, I suggest that her style presupposes a

Abstract:
In the late 18th century, it was not uncommon that a middle class woman had to choose if her marriage should be based on love or money. Since women often depended on either a husband or male relatives to support them, marriage was a way to avoid economic hardship. Pride and Prejudice gives many examples of women in this situation, and it is evident that both men and women are affected by economy and social class in their choice of a partner. The purpose of this essay is therefore to look closer on how the courtships in the novel are influenced by economy and class. Some characters are greedy a

Abstract:
This doctoral thesis analyses the evolution of responses to Jane Austen's fiction through continuations of her unfinished novel The Watsons (c.1803-5). Although the first full “appropriation” of an Austen novel ever published was a continuation of The Watsons and a total of eight completions appeared between 1850 and 2008, little research has been done to link the afterlife of The Watsons and changing perceptions of Austen. This thesis argues that the completions of The Watsons significantly illuminate Austen's reception: they expose conflicting readings of Austen's novels through textual nego

A une époque où les lois de la gentry anglaise entravaient l'accès des femmes au pouvoir financier, l'argent ne pouvait que susciter des sentiments ambivalents, d'angoisse ou de fascination. En marge de la gentry et du marriage market par son impécuniosité, Austen utilise l'argent comme une clef d'exploration multiple dans ses romans, où il génère une circulation complexe.

Jane Austen wrote her novels over two hundred years ago. Today many people, especially women, are still affected by them and her characters. She has become famous through her romantic novels where she writes about young women during the late 18th century who spend their days drinking tea and socializing in order to find a man, marry him and live happily ever after. Even though Austen writes romance and her novels remind the reader of fairy tales, she also focuses on presenting important passages and events that occur in these young women’s lives.
