Summary

The plethora of Jane-Austen-related fiction and nonfiction-sequels, mysteries, dating guides, invented biographies, and more-that has appeared within the last decade attests to her readers' enthusiasm for re-envisioning her characters as well as herself. Everybody's Jane is the first study to investigate fully these popular appropriations of Austen in England and America, taking into account recent scholarly work on fan cultures and fan fiction. Like these Austen-inspired works themselves, this book stands at the crossroads between studies of popular culture and literary studies; it also offers a major contribution to the ongoing public discussion about the significance and relevance of Jane Austen today.
