Edition: 1st ed.
Material type: Text Text; Format: print ; Literary form: Fiction
Publication details: New York : Knopf : Distributed by Random House, [1991]
Dissertation note: The most perfect of Jane Austen’s perfect novels begins with twenty-one-year-old Emma Woodhouse comfortably dominating the social order in the village of Highbury, convinced that she has both the understanding and the right to manage other people’s lives–for their own good, of course. Her well-meant interfering centers on the aloof Jane Fairfax, the dangerously attractive Frank Churchill, the foolish if appealing Harriet Smith, and the ambitious young vicar Mr. Elton–and ends with her complacency shattered, her mind awakened to some of life’s more intractable dilemmas, and her happiness assured

Edition: Reprint Edition.
Material type: Text Text; Format: print ; Literary form: Fiction

The Bostonians / Henry James. by Series: Everyman's library ; 82
Material type: Text Text; Format: print ; Literary form: Fiction
Publication details: New York : A. Knopf : Distributed by Random House, 1992
Dissertation note: Henry James’s celebrated novel about a passionate New England feminist, her reactionary Southern gentleman cousin, and a charismatic young woman whose loyalty they both wish to possess goes so directly to the heart of sexual politics that it speaks to us with a voice as fresh and vital as when the book was first published in 1886.
