ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Perhaps the most ironic and fun novel by Jane Austen, the unrivaled master of comedy of manners. Translation by Isabel Oyarz???bal Introduction by Marilyn Butler, professor at the universities of Cambridge and Oxford. Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey , originally published posthumously in 1818, is the story of seventeen-year-old Catherine Morland, one of ten children of a country clergyman, whose wild imagination and excessive fondness for Gothic novels (especially Ann Radcliffe's Mysteries of Udolpho ) has skewed her worldview and interactions with others to great comic effect. Catherine leaves her sheltered, rural home to enter the busy, sophisticated world of Bath in the late 1790s. Austen observes with insight and humor the interactions between Catherine and the various characters she meets and tracks her growing understanding of the world around her. In her first full-length novel, Austen fixes her sharp, ironic gaze on other kinds of contemporary novels, especially the Gothic school made famous by Ann Radcliffe. Catherine's reading becomes intertwined with her social and romantic adventures, adding to the uncertainties and embarrassments she must undergo before finding happiness.
