Abstract
Regency novels of Jane Austen to its modern and contemporary practitioners in the United States. We move from the courtship plots of Austen’s influential fiction, set in England, through Wharton and James’s transatlantic adaptations of the genre. After reading Capote’s bohemian version of the novel of manners, we turn at the end of the course to Didion’s revision of James in her fiction. This course may be taken for credit toward a women’s studies minor, or as part of a minor or major in English.
