Description

Explore a deep psychological study of one of literature's most famous authors. In Character and Conflict in Jane Austen's Novels, Bernard J. Paris provides a detailed analysis of the protagonists found in four of Austen's most popular works: Mansfield Park, Emma, Pride and Prejudice, and Persuasion. This book examines how these characters function as brilliant mimetic creations that sometimes move beyond the formal and thematic boundaries set by the author. Paris investigates the tensions between form, theme, and mimesis to help readers understand the depth of these literary figures. By applying Northrop Frye's theory of comic forms, the text describes the formal structure of these classic novels. Additionally, the work uses Karen Horney's psychological theories to explore the personalities of the characters. This scholarly approach offers a new way to look at the motivations and conflicts that drive Austen's stories.
