The Norton Critical Edition of Jane Austen’s beloved comedic novel "Emma" has been revised and updated for the Fourth Edition. Based on the 1816 edition published by John Murray, the text has been lightly and judiciously emended by George Justice for faithfulness and clarity. Detailed explanatory annotations and facsimiles of the 1816 title and dedication pages accompany the novel.
The “Backgrounds” section in this new edition includes a wealth of source material, much of which is new. Austen’s correspondence with her publisher sheds light on her views of writing and her career. Additionally, two sets of verses referenced in "Emma" and responses to Austen and her writing from various authors, such as Charlotte Brontë, Juliet Pollock, and Virginia Woolf, are included.
“Reviews and Criticism” features twelve major interpretations of the novel, nine of which are new to this edition. Contributors include Jan Fergus, Patricia Meyer Spacks, and Tony Tanner. The section also includes a Chronology and Selected Bibliography.
Overall, the Fourth Edition of the Norton Critical Edition of "Emma" offers readers a deeper understanding of Austen’s classic work through new insights and perspectives from a variety of scholars and critics.
