This course will examine Jane Austen both as a British novelist and also as an iconic figure taken up by the film industry. The class will study four of her novels, their publication histories and recent phenomenal success as films. Where possible a selection of the various film adaptations of each novel will be studied to allow the sutdent to gain a better appreciation of Austen as a writer and consider how the various novels and film adaptations reflect the ideologies of their own period.
