14655 Austenesque Mysteries 16th printing (first was 1902)In this landmark work originally published in 1989, Harris shows that Austen immersed her works in allusions to her predecessors in literature, including Locke, Richardson, Milton, Shakespeare, and Chaucer. And, she did not restrict the sources of her inspiration to literature. She absorbed, retained, and created new art. A must read for all who seek to capture, just a little bit better, Austen "in the act of greatness." Cambridge UP, 2003. Paper.
