Thank you for your very interesting talk on Jane Austen and the Romantics. I wonder what happened to Jane Austen's prayer book as I have read that she was a devout Christian. It is possible it is on display in her last home which is a museum now. I would be interested in hearing you talk about Dorothy in Middlemarch as she is such an interesting character and it is a wonderful book.

I think this is one of those insights that really helps me see Jane Austen in a clearer light, on a much deeper level than I had before. Thank you so much!!

Very interesting commentary. Thank you. I’m pretty sure I have Marilyn Butler’s book in my “book room” somewhere, no doubt purchased after a JASNA conference decades ago. I think Austen’s inherent restraint shows she knew that emotional responses are dangerous to one’s moral obligations. It’s a very Catholic understanding now completely lost, and perhaps that’s why many readers perceive her work to be mere substandard “romance [in the current sense] novels” because they fail to endorse characters who give free reign to their emotions.
