Jane Austen's lasting appeal to both popular and elite audiences has lifted her to legendary status. This title begins by exploring the most important monuments and portraits of Austen, considering how these artifacts point to an author who is invisible and yet whose image is inseparable from the characters and fictional worlds she created.

Focusing on the work of Mary Wollstonecraft, Ann Radcliffe, Frances Burney and Jane Austen, this book examines the relationships between politics, gender and feeling. It treats the qualities that were once seen to mar their work as strategies of representation during a time of political change.
