{"product_id":"9781350528208","title":"Jane Austen in 50 Words by Maria Frawley","description":"What does Jane Austen mean when she writes approvingly of a  character's 'gentility' and `delicacy', or critically of another's 'indolence'  and 'impertinence'? What are her characters doing when they take the measure  of a person's 'air' and 'address'? These questions and more are answered in this  Janeite treasure trove, which examines the distinctive language woven through  Austen's signature stories.       Much of the language used in Austen's time has either fallen out of common use  or changed valence in significant and surprising ways. Maria Frawley takes 50  of those words - words that are integral to the fabric of Austen's fiction -  and explores them in short, accessible and lively entries.     With juicy morsels for lifelong Austen lovers as well as new students of the  great writer, Frawley offers new perspectives on Austen's world, giving readers  the tools to better understand her novels individually and as a whole.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56297686860149,"sku":"9781350528208","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781350528208.jpg?v=1762781292","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781350528208","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
