Jane Austen and Comedy

In bringing together Austen and comedy, which are both often dismissed as superfluous or irrelevant to a contemporary world, this collection of essays directs attention to the ways we laugh, the ways that Austen may make us do so, and the ways that our laughter is conditioned by the form in which Austen writes: comedy.

Prin reunirea lui Austen si comedie, care sunt deseori respinse ca fiind inutile sau irelevante pentru o lume contemporana, aceasta colectie de eseuri indreapta atentia asupra modurilor in care radem, a modurilor prin care Austen ne poate face sa facem acest lucru si a modurilor in care rasul nostru este conditionat de forma in care scrie Austen: comedie.
