5.0 out of 5 stars
an invaluable tool for scholars and common readers,
By isa_schaff@nobles.edu (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Austen's Pride and Prejudice (Approaches to Teaching World Literature) (Paperback)
As a faithful and long standing admirer of Jane Austen's works, I have many books in my library dedicated to the study, the examination and the pure enjoyment of the works of the great English author. None is more appreciated and often consulted than "Approaches to Teaching Austen's Pride and Prejudice".Prof. Folsom has compiled a rare gem: a book that satisfies the needs of the scholars and awakens the interest of the less knowledgeable reader. The reader is offered sixteen essays touching upon Social History, Austen's unpublished writing and reading, the structure and theme of the book and the language. Through clear prose, the essays contribute fresh insights or reinforce well known information, often displaying a sparkle of the same kind of wit which has made the Author so beloved. Every time I read part of this book, or its entirety, I find myself with a great urge to pick up once again Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice". I cannot think of a better testimonial to the validity of the work.

This review is from: Austen's Pride and Prejudice (Approaches to Teaching World Literature) (Paperback)
I have about 30 books of literary criticism on the works of Jane Austen.I wish this had been the first,because it explains so much of what the other critics say in ways that I, as a high- school graduate, can understand.
