        Emma

        Roman

        by Jane Austen, Hugh Thomson, Charlotte Gräfin Klinckowstroem

        Mit der Ehe hat Emma, die Titelheldin in Jane Austens viertem großen Roman, erklärtermaßen nichts im Sinn. Doch andere zu verkuppeln ist geradezu ihr Steckenpferd, das sie bravourös zu beherrschen glaubt. So greift sie in das Leben der 17jährigen Harriet Smith ein, will sie mit dem allseits begehrten Mr. Elton verheiraten und verkennt darüber deren wirkliche Gefühle – sowie ihre eigenen. Emma ist eine satirische »Komödie der Irrungen«, die ein realistisches Bild des englischen Landadels um 1800 zeichnet.

        Margaret Cavendish

        by Emma Rees

        Margaret Cavendish was one of the most prolific, complex and misunderstood writers of the seventeenth century. A contemporary of Descartes and Hobbes, she was fascinated by philosophical, scientific and imaginative advances, and struggled to overcome the political and cultural obstacles which threatened to stop her engagement with such discourses. Emma Rees examines how Cavendish engaged with the work of thinkers such as Lucretius, Plato, Homer and Harvey in an attempt to write her way out of the exile which threatened not only her intellectual pursuits but her very existence. What emerges is the image of an intelligent, audacious and intrepid early modern woman whose tale will appeal to specialists and general readers alike. ;

        She played and sang

        Jane Austen and music

        by Gillian Dooley

        Like her much-loved heroine Emma Woodhouse, Jane Austen 'played and sang'. Music occupied a central role in her life, and she made brilliant use of it in her books to illuminate characters' personalities and highlight the contrasts between them. Until recently, our knowledge of Austen's musical inclinations was limited to the recollections of relatives who were still in their youth when she passed away. But with the digitisation of music books from her immediate family circle, a treasure trove of evidence has emerged. Delving into these books, alongside letters and other familial records, She played and sang unveils a previously unknown facet of Austen's world. This insightful work not only uncovers the music closely associated with Austen, but also unravels her musical connections with family and friends, revealing the intricate ties between her fiction and the melodies she performed. With these revelations, Austen's musical legacy comes to life, granting us a deeper understanding of her artistic prowess and the influences that shaped her literary masterpieces.
