Jane Austen and Discourses of Feminism. - book reviews
Criticism, Fall, 1996 by Laura Dabundo
Discourses of feminism, in short, then, are with Austen herself. If they are correct, they attempt to tell her what she must surely already know, that is, the meanings and motives behind her art. If they are wrong, then of what value are they However, the point is that they function on the level of intention and purpose rather than result and product, style and art.
Hence, it is ultimately not any surprise if there is some residual resistance on the part of the text to even the most determined of critics to wrench a particular meaning out of it. Too bad we don't just let the books speak to us. Too bad we are often so busy speaking that we cannot always hear what they have to say.
