Explore the deep spirituality of Jane Austen through her life and literature.
Best known for her timeless novels Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park and Emma - all first published anonymously - Jane Austen observed, critiqued and illuminated the life of the English upper classes with wit and insight. But what do her writings reveal about her own personal spirituality?
In this book, Paula Hollingsworth explores Jane Austen’s gentle yet resilient Christian faith and the influence it had on both her life and her writing. Drawing on Austen's life story, letters, friendships, novels and the characters she created, Hollingsworth reveals the depth and significance of Jane Austen’s spirituality.
Paula Hollingsworth is a parish priest with a background in English literature, maths and science. She has been fascinated by Jane Austen for some time, and wrote her thesis on Jane Austen's spirituality as part of her studies at Sarum College for her MA. She is a frequent speaker on English literature. This is her first book.
