| Summary: | "Returning author Devoney Looser has written a study of Jane Austen's legacy in high and popular culture, looking at stage and film adaptations of her work, how Austen has been taught in classrooms, Austen's depiction in visual culture, and Austen's role in the women's suffragist movement. Looser draws on popular print and unpublished archival sources, amassing evidence from high, middlebrow, and popular culture, in order to craft a more capacious history of posthumous reception. The book is a detailed and revealing account of what Looser calls the "public dimension" of Jane Austen, who is a "manufactured creation." Looser has dug deep and come up with brand-new material on Austen, something that is very hard to do. This is the kind of material that Janeites and Austen scholars live for"-- |

ust how did Jane Austen become the celebrity author
and the inspiration for generations of loyal fans?
Devoney Looser’s The Ada king of Jane ^4usten turns
to the people, performances, activism, and images that
fostered Austen s early fame, laying the groundwork for
understanding the beloved author we think we know.
Here are the Austen infiuencers, including her first
English illustrator, the eccentric Ferdinand Pickering,
whose sensational gothic images may be better understood
through his brushes with bullying, bigamy, and an
attempted matricide. The daring director-actress Rosina
Filippi shaped Austen’s reputation with her pioneering
dramatizations, leading thousands of young women to
ventriloquize Elizabeth Rennet’s audacious lines before
drawing room audiences. Even the supposedly staid
history of Austen scholarship has its bizarre stories.
The author of the first Jane Austen dissertation, student
George Pellew, tragically died young, but he was believed
by many, including his professor-mentor, to have come
back from the dead.
Looser shows how these figures and their Austen-
mspired work transformed Austen’s reputation, just as
sh¿profoundly shaped theirs. Through them, Looser
describes the factors and influences that radically altered
Austen’s evolving image. Drawing from unexplored
material, Looser examines how echoes of that work
reverberate in our explanations of Austen’s literary and
cultural power. Whether you’re a devoted Janeite or
simply Jane-curious, The Adaking of Jane ^hitsten will
have you thinking about how a literary icon is made,
transformed, and handed down through the generations.
