Description: "Jane Austen in the Classroom helps teachers to guide readers who are being introduced to these works - as well as readers who know and love Austen's novels - through the process of "viewing the novel," reading Austen with an imaginative eye, and "reading the film," analyzing the adaptations as re-creations of Austen's cultural and fictional worlds. This book references the latest critical analyses of the novels and the videos. As a pedagogical tool, the text is a valuable resource for educators and students of the British novel and literature by women, offering innovative approaches to discussion, analysis, writing, and research."--BOOK JACKET.
