Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey A Longman Cultural Edition

From Longman's Cultural Editions Series, Northanger Abbey, edited by Marilyn Gaull, presents key texts that illuminate the lively intersections of literature, tradition, and culture. This edition places Jane Austen and Northanger Abbey in the major conversations of Romanticism, not just the gothic novel and female education. It places the novel in two contexts, 1798, when it was written, and 1818, when it was published, illustrating its relevance to both periods and the major writers, especially the poets. This edition connects Jane Austen with the major Western literary tradition, from ancient myth, the Arabian Nights, to Cervantes, Flaubert, and Virginia Woolf.Gaull, Marilyn is the author of 'Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey A Longman Cultural Edition', published 2004 under ISBN 9780321202086 and ISBN 0321202082.
