书目名称 | Jane Austen’s Philosophy of the Virtues | 编辑 | Sarah Emsley | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | This book examines Austen‘s novels in relation to her philosophical and religious context, demonstrating that the combination of the classical and theological traditions of the virtues is central to her work. Austen‘s heroines learn to confront the fundamental ethical question of how to live their lives. Instead of defining virtue only in the narrow sense of female sexual virtue, Austen opens up questions about a plurality of virtues. In fresh readings of the six completed novels, plus Lady Susan, Emsley shows how Austen‘s complex imaginative representations of the tensions among the virtues engage with and expand on classical and Christian ethical thought. | 出版日期 | Book 2005 | 关键词 | Aristotle; ethics; female sex; Jane Austen; novel; philosophy; sensibility; tradition; British and Irish Lit | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/9781403978288 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-349-53141-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4039-7828-8 | copyright | Sarah Emsley 2005 |
