  • JANE AUSTEN's OPEN SECRET: SAME-SEX LOVE in PRIDE and PREJUDICE, EMMA, and PERSUASION by JENNIFER ANNE LEEDS a Thesis Submitte
    JANE AUSTEN’S OPEN SECRET: SAME-SEX LOVE IN PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, EMMA, AND PERSUASION By JENNIFER ANNE LEEDS A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS IN ENGLISH WASHINGTON STATE UNIVERSITY Department of English MAY 2011 To the Faculty of Washington State University: The members of the Committee appointed to examine the thesis of JENNIFER ANNE LEEDS find it satisfactory and recommend that it be accepted. ___________________________________ Debbie Lee, Ph.D, Chair ___________________________________ Carol Siegel, Ph.D. ___________________________________ Jon Hegglund, Ph.D. ii JANE AUSTEN’S OPEN SECRET: SAME-SEX LOVE IN PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, EMMA, AND PERSUASION Abstract by Jennifer Anne Leeds, M.A. Washington State University May 2011 Chair: Debbie Lee I argue that Austen’s famously heteronormative novels do not actually begin with compulsory heterosexuality: they arrive there gradually, contingently, and only by first carving out an authorized space in which queer relations may, or indeed must, take hold. Engaging intimacies between both men and women within Pride and Prejudice, Persuasion, and Emma, I explore how Austen constructs a heteronormativity that is itself premised upon queer desire and the progressive implications this casts upon Austen as a female writer within Regency England. In each of my three chapters, I look at how same- sex intimacies are cultivated in the following social spheres: the realm of illness within Persuasion, the realm of Regency courtship within Pride and Prejudice, and the realm of domesticity within Emma. I argue that Austen conforms to patriarchal sanctions for female authorship while simultaneously undermining this sanction by depicting same-sex desire.

  • (De)Constructing Jane: Converting Austen in Film Responses Karen Gevirtz, Seton Hall University
    Seton Hall University From the SelectedWorks of Karen Bloom Gevirtz Winter 2010 (De)Constructing Jane: Converting Austen in Film Responses Karen Gevirtz, Seton Hall University Available at: https://works.bepress.com/karen_gevirtz/3/ Karen B. Gevirtz PERSUASIONS ON-LINE V.31, NO.1 (Winter 2010) (De)Constructing Jane: Converting “Austen” in Film Responses KAREN B. GEVIRTZ Karen B. Gevirtz (email: [email protected]) is an Assistant Professor of English at Seton Hall University. She is the author of Life After Death: Widows and the English Novel, Defoe to Austen (University of Delaware Press, 2005) and articles on eighteenth-century women novelists. YOU SORT OF FEEL LIKE YOU OWN HER,” Keira Knightley says of Jane Austen in an interview, adding, “And I’m sure everybody feels the same way” (“Jane Austen”). Certainly if the last two decades are any indication, just about “everybody” does feel a claim or connection not just to the works but to Austen herself. Suzanne R. Pucci and James Thompson describe an explosion of Austen-related materials in an impressive array of media, from traditional print to cyberspace, during the end of the twentieth and the beginning of the twenty-first century (1). Phases appear within this effusion, however, particularly in film responses to her work. In the 1990s, films were occupied with the novels themselves. Gradually, however, film responses have shifted their focus so that by the end of the first decade of the new millennium, a large number of Austen films present the novels not as the result of brilliant literary endeavor, but as the inevitably limited product of a historically-bound being, Austen the woman.

  • Conceivably the Most Popular of Classic Novel Adaptations Of
    CHAPTER FIVE THE 1995 MINISERIES: FAITHFUL TO THE FEMALE AUDIENCE Conceivably the most popular of classic novel adaptations of all times, the 1995 television interpretation of Pride and Prejudice brought fame to its actors and revived that of Austen. Although only one of seven Austen adaptations of the decade, it was the one that effectively set off the wave and has come to represent the “Austen Renaissance” of the 1990s.1 It caused more “Austenmania” among viewers than any of the others.2 It coincided with new technology that made films more accessible: over the Eighties and Nineties the home video-machine became common, changing the role of the audience. For the first time, viewers could use the rewind-button to watch favourite scenes over and over again. And the scenes that viewers were most fascinated by were those added by the film-makers to fill in Austen’s gaps: the Darcy scenes. Nearly two decades later, these scenes remain significant bits of our cultural iconography, echoed not only in later Austen productions like the 2005 Pride and Prejudice, the 2008 Lost in Austen,3 and the 2013 Austenland,4 but in other novels-turned-films: Bridget Jones’s Diary 1 The ensuing enormous interest in Austen and in classic novel adaptations in general is referred to as the “Pride and Prejudice Factor” (Robert Giddings and Keith Selby, The Classic Serial on Television and Radio, Basingstoke, and New York, 2001, 116). 2 One early reflection of the impact of this is found in Roger Sales’ 1996 “Afterword: Austenmania” for the new paperback edition of his 1994 book (Sales, Jane Austen and Representations of Regency England, 227-39).

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project has been a labor of love, but one that truly would not have gotten far past page one without the help of the many people who supported me and pushed me to keep going. I would like to thank Scott Nygren, who started this project with me and shared his limitless patience and insight for most of its duration; I am sorry he cannot be here to see me finish it. I would also like to thank my dissertation supervisor, Barbara Mennel, whose generosity with her time and her feedback have inspired me to be a better writer, student, and teacher. I have also been blessed with wonderful committee members—Kenneth Kidd, Judith Page, and Jack Stenner—whose kindness and flexibility have made this process shockingly painless. Though he hasn't been my teacher or my advisor in many years, I also must thank Aiping Zhang, who has been my champion and source of encouragement for the majority of my academic career. This project also would never have been possible without my mother, Sharlyn Swofford, and my daughter, Lorelei Chamberlain. No matter how much I fretted over my ability to complete this work, both had unwavering faith that I would finish.

  • Young 1 Fans and Fanatics of Jane Austen Marissa Young
    Young 1 Fans and Fanatics of Jane Austen Marissa Young 2 Young Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice has swept women off of their feet for literally centuries since its publication in 1813. As the New Yorker article Happy two- hundredth birthday, Pride and Prejudice points out, Austen “gives us everything we want: the wittiest lines, the silliest fools, the most lovable heroine, the handsomest estate.”1 Austen’s novel, complete with manners, culture, and class, satisfies our romantic, if happily-ever-unrealistic culture. Her work has been celebrated in myriad ways by devoted fans, from the annual convention of the Jane Austen Society of North America, to the contemporary spin-offs such as the television mini-series Lost in Austen (2008) and the movie Bridget Jones’s Diary (2001). Although Jane Austen purists, such as the attendees of the Jane Austen Society of North America Convention, appreciate Austen’s work in a scholarly sense, many modern women readers turn to spin-offs in order to place Austen’s work into a modern twenty-first century context. Throughout its two hundred years of existence, the fandom of Pride and Prejudice has evolved into two different followings- the scholarly Janenites and the modern Janenites who typify the evolution of the book’s changing place in society. JASNA, or the Jane Austen Society of North America, attracts devoted Jane Austen scholars from all across the country. During its annual conference, hundreds of Jane Austen fans lace up their corsets and pull up their breeches to attend a century- accurate recreation of Austen’s time.

  • Appendix: What Happened to Jane Austen's Books?
    Appendix: What Happened to Jane Austen’s Books? Biographers of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries inevitably touch on one of the few known facts of Austen’s life – the sale of ‘her’ books (books actually owned by her father) prior to the family’s removal to Bath in 1801, when Austen was 25 years old.1 The newspaper advertisement offering the books and other house- hold effects for auction is displayed at Austen’s cottage in Chawton, and in his Bibliography of Jane Austen David Gilson lists these volumes, including those that survive in libraries and in private collections.2 Apart from the records of this sale, however, Gilson and other researchers have recourse only to the occasional men- tion of books in Austen’s letters for her purchases after 1801. However genteelly poor the all-female Austen household was, some book buying would not have been unreasonable, and we know Austen occasionally gave books as gifts. As H. J. Jackson writes, ‘new books were luxuries but not out-of-reach luxuries’.3 It seems improbable that an author – and, moreover, such a keen reader – would have limited her read- ing to the selections available from circulating libraries, however well stocked, or to borrowing from family members, however generous. Although, so far, only one or two explicit records have been found of Austen’s book purchases in propria per- sona, I believe that Austen – like any literary middle-class woman of the period – is likely to have bought a few books during her lifetime, especially after her move to Chawton and the success of her early publications provided her with some domestic and financial security.4 Positing such a collection of volumes, it remains to determine which novels Austen may have bought for herself (we know she purchased books as gifts5), and what became of them after her death.
