| Zusammenfassung: | "Jane Austen's Philosophy of the Virtues 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. With the exception of the unethical eponymous heroine of Lady Susan, Austen's heroines engage in philosophical contemplation about what constitutes the virtuous life and learn to confront a fundamental ethical question: "How should I live my life?" 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."--BOOK JACKET. |

Jane Austen s Philosophy of the
Virtues examines Austen s novels
in relation to her philosophical
and religious context, demonstrating that
the combination of the classical and theo¬
logical traditions of the virtues is central
to her work. With the exception of the
unethical eponymous heroine of Lady
Susan, Austen s heroines engage in
philosophical contemplation about what
constitutes the virtuous life and learn to
confront a fundamental ethical question:
How should I live my life? 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 rep¬
resentations of the tensions among the
virtues engage with and expand on clas¬
sical and Christian ethical thought.
