-Descripcion Original:

In recent years, Mansfield Park has come to be regarded as Austens most controversial novel. It was published in two editions in her lifetime and the 1814 and 1816 texts are fully collated in this work--allowing readers to see the differences between the first edition and the second. This includes some important amendments made by Jane Austen herself. Also included, with a brief note on Elizabeth Inchbald, is the text of Lovers Vows, the play around which much of the plot of Mansfield Park revolves. Review Jane Austen deserves, and here gets, the reward of other peoples skillful work on her little bit of ivory, two inches wide.... The Cambridge Edition justifies its claim to the the first ever scholarly edition of the works of Jane Austen, and is a fine tribute to her for the twenty-first century. -Jane Austen Society Newsletter Book Description This volume, first published in 2005, is a fully annotated and authoritative scholarly edition of Mansfield Park.
