Description

Law and Economics in Jane Austen traces principles of law and economics in sex, marriage and romance as set out in the novels of Jane Austen, unveiling how those meticulous principles still control today's modern romance. You will learn fascinating new insights into law and economics by seeing these disciplines through Jane Austen's eyes. Readers who find themselves wishing Jane Austen had written just one more novel, or that she had somewhere offered more examination and analysis of her characters' predicaments, or who desire to go deeper with her investigation of love, money and culture will praise this book. Discovering the legal and economic principles that drove her stories, Jane Austen's Law & Economics reveals that the more things change, the more they stay the same. Love and money are constants in social connection. While culture may have changed over 300 years, principles of law and economics remain staples of modern romance - which is why Jane Austen continues to fascinate the modern mind. So sit back, enjoy, and be pleasantly taught and surprised at what you will learn from the methodical mind of Jane. Review Presents economic concepts and legal principles evidenced in Jane Austen's writing, examining the connections between love and money in Austen's stories. Covers the basics of economics and law using Austen's characters. Details the law and economics of dating and the social rules of how men and women connect.--Journal of Economic Literature"To adapt the classic opening line of Pride and Prejudice, it is a truth universally acknowledged that two authors in possession of a good idea must be in want of good readers. Lynne Marie Kohm and Kathleen E. Akers bring their expertise of jurisprudence and economic theory, respectively, into the fascinating worlds and refreshingly natural, comic novels of Jane Austen. Herein the authors showcase the wealth and security afforded by lives of familial bonds, moral sentiments, and virtuous sensibilities. The prudence of a good life has rarely been made as persuasively and enchantingly as in Law and Economics in Jane Austen."--Terry Lindvall, Virginia Wesleyan University About the Author Kathleen Akers is analysts in economics at Epsilon Economics. Lynne Marie Kohm is professor at Regent University School of Law.
