This collection is concerned with the changing approaches to Jane
Austen, her writings, and her afterlives, over the past two hundred
years. It reflects on, and broadens understanding of, the cultural
reach and reimaginings of Austen in view of the bicentennial
celebrations of her published novels from 2011 to 2018. The ten
contributors to this collection re-engage with key debates over
Austen, her continuing appeal and significance as an author and a
lucrative brand, and her cultural ubiquity. These essays are
concerned with Austen's national and international reputation; her
critical reception; creative appropriations of her writings; and
Austen's afterlives in popular culture, in visual media, in
ephemeral publications, in stage, in film, and in musical versions.
Together, these essays by experts from across the UK, North
America, Australia, and Scandinavia advance innovative readings of
Austen's novels and her transmedia legacies and shed new light on
some of the complex reception processes that emerge from the study
of this enduringly popular author. They also set out possible paths
for scholarship on Austen in coming years. This book was originally
published as a special issue of Women's Writing.
