The language of Jane Austen (Language and style series, 13)

First published in 1972, Norman Page’s seminal study of The Language of Jane Austen seeks to demonstrate both the exceptional nature and the degree of subtlety of Jane Austen’s use of language.  As well as examining the staple items of her vocabulary and some of the characteristic patterns of her syntax, attention is paid to her use of dialogue and of the letter form. The aim of the study is not simply to analyse linguistic qualities for their own sake but to employ close verbal analysis to enrich the critical understanding of Jane Austen’s novels.

Muriel Spark (Macmillan Modern Novelists Series)

This is a discussion of the themes and techniques of Muriel Spark's 18 novels, from "The Comforters" of 1957, through her most substantial and ambitious novel, "The Mandelbaum Gate", to "A Far Cry from Kensington" in 1988. She has been writing for 30 years, and is considered one of the most interesting and original of contemporary English novelists. This study examines the development of her fictional art right up to the present day. Norman Page is the author of many works on 19th and 20th century literature, including "A.E.Housman:A Critical Biography", "A Conrad Companion" and "Speech in the English Novel".

The wide scope of this study, which ranges from poetry and cinema to street violence and prostitution, provides a richly detailed context for its account of two writers engaged in the process of self-definition.</p>
