-Titulo Original : Sense And Sensibility (the Cambridge Edition Of The Works Of Jane Austen)-Fabricante : Cambridge University Press-Descripcion Original: Sense and Sensibility, Jane Austens first published novel (1811), introduced its readers to many of the themes which would dominate Austens future work. On one level it is a simple story of two sisters finding fulfilment within a society bounded by regulations and restrictions. But on another it is a comprehensive exploration of the moral dilemmas facing young women in the choices they have to make about their lives. Austen writes about everyday events of her own time with a subtlety and sensitivity unprecedented in the English novel. This edition, first published in 2006, takes as its copytext the second edition of 1813, which corrects some errors of the first edition. The volume provides comprehensive explanatory notes, an extensive critical introduction covering the context and publication history of the work, a chronology of Austens life and an authoritative textual apparatus.

-Titulo Original : Persuasion (the Cambridge Edition Of The Works Of Jane Austen)-Fabricante : Cambridge University Press-Descripcion Original: The accident of death makes Persuasion Jane Austens final novel. It deserves its position by its innovative treatment of passion and rhetorical style and its development of those themes of memory and time, public and private history, inner and outer lives, language and literature, emotion and restraint that have marked all Austens work. Where the other works move towards a new symbolic and physical home for the heroine, Persuasion begins with her ejection and ends with her understanding that home is not a place at all but an ambiance and an acceptance of change. This volume, first published in 2006, provides comprehensive explanatory notes, an extensive critical introduction covering the context and publication history of the work, a chronology of Austens life and an authoritative textual apparatus. This edition is an indispensable resource for all scholars and readers of Austen. Review The excellent recent Cambridge University Press edition...is in all a work of outstanding scholarship.

-Titulo Original : Northanger Abbey (the Cambridge Edition Of The Works Of Jane Austen)-Fabricante : Cambridge University Press-Descripcion Original: One of the first of Jane Austens novels to be written, and one of the last to be published, Northanger Abbey is both an amusing story of how a naive girl enters society and wins the affection of a witty young clergyman, and a high-spirited parody of the lurid Gothic novels that were popular during Austens youth. In the process it features a vivid account of social life in late eighteenth-century Bath, and Austens famous defence of the novel as a literary form. This edition, based on the text of the novel as published posthumously in 1818, is accompanied by explanatory notes, and an appendix summarising the plots and situations of the Gothic fictions that form the basis of much of Austens comedy. In addition there is an extensive critical introduction covering the context, publication, and critical history of the novel, a chronology of Austens life, and authoritative textual apparatus.

-Titulo Original : Historia General De Las Cosas De Nueva España (cambridge Library Collection - Latin American Studies) (volume 2) -Fabricante : Cambridge University Press-Descripcion Original: Friar Bernardino Sahagun was in 1529 one of the first Catholic missionaries to the Aztecs. During his sojourn in Mexico he came to speak Nahuatl (the native language) fluently and to understand the Aztec culture, customs, religion and infrastructure intimately. He compiled the largest and most richly detailed record of the Aztecs and their history before the civilisation was wiped out by the Spanish conquest, and Sahagun is sometimes considered the father of ethnology, as his study was the first to derive from the subjects own point of view, through using native informants in his research.
