A Bibliography of Jane Austen This bibliography has become the standard work on this classic 19th-century author. With the revival of her books in films and television programs such as EMMA, SENSE & SENSIBILITY and PERSUASION within recent years, her popularity has increased among literary and film enthusiasts as well as her name among the general public. With the reprint of this rare and hard-to-find bibliography, last corrected in 1985 but now with a new introduction by the author, book collectors, librarians and booksellers will find its publication timely and its importance and usefulness greater than ever. The descriptions follow the principles laid down in Gaskell's A NEW INTRODUCTION TO BIBLIOGRAPHY and include physical description, technical notes, publishing history and reviews, adding where possible, contemporary commentary and details of sale-room records. This edition of the bibliography reprints the 1982 edition, but includes a list of corrections even more extensive than those incorporated in the 1985 corrected reprint. The sections cover original editions, first American editions, translations, editions published by Richard Bentley, later editions and selections, minor works, letters, dramatizations, continuations and completions, books owned by Austen, miscellaneous, and biography and criticism. This work is fully-indexed and well-illustrated. Bumped at corners. xxii, 877 pages. cloth, dust jacket.. thick 8vo..
