520    Why does Jane Austen mania continue unabated in a 
       postmodern world? How does the brilliant Regency novelist 
       speak so personally to today s women that they view her as
       their best friend? Jane Austen s Women answers these 
       questions by exploring Austen s affirming yet challenging 
       vision of both who her dynamic female characters are, and 
       who they become. This important new work analyzes the 
       heroines' relationships to body, mind, spirit, environment,
       and society. It reveals how, despite a restrictive 
       patriarchal culture, these women achieve greatness. In 
       clear, lively prose, Kathleen Anderson shares original 
       theoretical insights from twenty years of studying Austen,
       and illuminates the novels as guidebooks on how to become 
       an Austenian heroine in one's everyday life. This engaging
       book will appeal to a broad readership: the serious 
       student, the general lit-lover, and the Austen neophyte 
       alike. -- Provided by publisher.
