The text of the Fourth Edition of the Norton Critical Edition of
Emma is based on the 1816 edition published by John Murray. George
Justice has lightly and judiciously emended the text for
faithfulness and clarity. The novel is accompanied by detailed
explanatory annotations as well as facsimiles of the 1816 title and
dedication pages. "Backgrounds" collects a wealth of source
material, much of it new to the Fourth Edition. New material
includes Austen's correspondence with her publisher about the
business of writing, revealing Austen's view of her own writing and
career. In addition, there are two sets of verses-"Kitty, A Fair
But Frozen Maid" and "Robin Adair"-referenced in Emma as well as
responses (1815-1950) to Austen and her writing from, among others,
Charlotte Bronte, Juliet Pollock, Virginia Woolf, D. W. Harding,
and Edmund Wilson. "Reviews and Criticism" includes twelve major
interpretations of the novel, nine of them new to the Fourth
Edition. New contributors include Jan Fergus, Patricia Meyer
Spacks, Tony Tanner, Maaja Stewart, D. A. Miller, Emily Auerbach,
Gabrielle D. V. White, Richard Jenkyns, and David Monaghan. A
Chronology and Selected Bibliography are also included.
