Synopsis
Jane Austen's heroines respond to the power of the natural world, seeking comfort in nature's calm or referencing trees and "verdure"-meaning fresh greenness and fertility-in relation to their awakening self-knowledge and, in most, their sexuality. This book focuses on interactions between Austen's heroines and uncontrollable forces of nature. Gender and nature are interwoven; some upper-class, usually male characters exploit nature as they exploit women. In the fragment Sanditon, Austen satirizes resort developers who commodity both nature and women. This work demonstrates how Austen transformed the Regency novel through pastoral language and structures, illuminating themes of greed, the inequality of institutions and cultural norms, and the emotional development of young women in the early nineteenth century., Jane Austen's heroines respond to the power of the natural world, seeking comfort in nature's calm or referencing trees and "verdure"--meaning fresh greenness and fertility--in relation to their awakening self-knowledge and, in most, their sexuality.

- e***a (425)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseVERY nice BOOK AND fast shipping too, I RECOMMEND THIS SELLER thanks.
- f***u (10)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseOrdered this book in Good condition, what I got was a book that was drop shipped from a third party on Amazon, with invoice stating the book had been listed as Acceptable condition. Book was stained in multiple spots. This seller charged me for a Good condition book, then knowingly ordered a book in poorer condition to send to me. Feels very deceptive and unethical. This feedback is only neutral and not negative because they did not give me any hassle for returning.
