It is a truth universally acknowledged that Jane Austen is eminently, delightfully, and delectably quotable. This truth goes far beyond the first line of Pride and Prejudice, which has muscled out many other excellent sentences. So many gems of wit and wisdom from her novels deserve to be better known, from Northanger Abbey on its lovable, naive heroine-"if adventures will not befal a young lady in her own village, she must seek them abroad"-to Persuasion's...

Bei ihrem Tod mit nur 41 Jahren hinterließ Jane Austen drei ganz unterschiedliche unvollendete Romane: "The Watsons"? "Lady Susan" und "Sanditon". Sie bieten einen einzigartigen Einblick in ihre literarische Werkstatt, sind aber auch unabhängig davon als literarische Werke sehr reizvoll zu lesen.

"The History of England" is a 1791 novel by English author Jane Austen. Written when she was just fifteen years old (it includes her original spelling quirks), it is a humorous burlesque on the popular history books contemporarily used in school. Within it, Austen comically mimics the style of writing characteristic of these books, mocking the dubious objectivity of the historians in question. With outrageous characters and Austen's famously sharp...
