Reading the Body in the Eighteenth-Century Novel
ISBN: 9781403933140 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. McMaster's lively study looks at the various codes by which eighteenth-century novelists made the minds of their characters legible through their bodies. She tellingly explores the discourses of medicine, physiognomy, gesture and facial expression, completely familiar to contemporary readers but not to us, in ways that enrich our reading of such classics as Clarissa and Tristram Shandy, as well as of novels by Fanny Burney, Mary Wollstonecraft and Jane Austen.

Jane Austen's Business: Her World and Her Profession
ISBN: 9780333629208 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 203 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Jane Austen's Business is a collection of essays that demonstrates Austen knew her business.

Jane Austen on Love
ISBN: 9780920604243 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 90 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. "Even many of her admirers are ready to admit that though she is a great novelist, it is not to Jane Austen that we should go if we want to be deeply moved: she is great for other reasons. I am ready to admit numbers of reasons for which she is a great novelist; but I find no need to apologize for her in the area of her main concern. My contention is that her subject was love, and she knew her subject." (from the Foreword)

Jane Austen, Young Author
ISBN: 9781472440563 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In her lively and accessibly written book, Juliet McMaster examines Jane Austen s acute and frequently uproarious juvenile works as important in their own right and for the ways they look forward to her novels. Exploring the early works both collectively and individually, McMaster shows how young Austen s fictional world, peopled by guzzlers and unashamed self-seekers, operates by an ethic of energy rather than the sympathy that dominates the novels. A fully self-conscious artist, young Jane experimented freely with literary modes - the epistolary, the omniscient, the drama. Early on, she...
