Hardback. In her study of animals in Jane Austen, Seeber situates the author's work within eighteenth- and nineteenth-century debates about human-animal relations. She shows that Austen associates the domination of animals with that of women, challenges readings that identify Austen's depictions of nature as benign celebrations of England's imperial power.
