From Longman's Cultural Editions series, Emma, edited by Frances Ferguson, presents Jane Austen’s novel with illuminations from various contexts, ranging from first reviews, to the entertainments of riddles and charades, the vogue of gothic fiction, the plight of governesses that had their situations compared to slavery, and the economy of English estates.
