The book is primarily intended for those who might benefit from a better understanding of the Church in England, its operations, and its cultural impact during Austen's life. Plenty of useful information not readily found elsewhere. For Janeites, this is a must. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Jane Austen transports us to a world of elegance and upheaval. The Church of England, at the heart of her life and her world, is key to understanding her stories. Readers may wonder:? Why could Mr. Collins, a rector, afford to marry a poor woman, while Mr. Elton, a vicar, could not? ? What conflicting religious duties led Elizabeth Bennet to turn down two marriage proposals?? Why did Mansfield Park's early readers (unlike most today) love Fanny Price?? What part did people of color, like Miss Lambe of Sanditon, play in English society?? How did Austen's church impact people's lives and the world?Fashionable Goodness: Christianity in Jane Austen's England answers these questions and many more. It explores:? Austen's Church of England, as we see it in her novels, ? Challenges the church was facing, reflected in her stories, and ? Ways the church in Austen's England transformed England and the world.Comprehensive, yet affordable and easy to read, Fashionable Goodness will help you see Austen's beloved novels and characters in richer and deeper ways.
