This study provides a detailed account of the "Fables", including humour, the representation of animals, the literary qualities and the "moraliste" core. Dr Slater brings to light veiled satirical attacks, allusion to forgotten works and literature, and traces the obscure currents of thought, all this in the service of explicating the "fable" element.

Ever wondered what Mr Darcy was really thinking? His secrets are revealed in this utterly convincing and captivating novel of love and pride, passion and prejudice.Perfect for fans of BRIDGERTON'As moving and enjoyable as could be wished ... Mr Darcy fans everywhere will welcome his Diary to the canon' Wendy Holden, DAILY MAIL'Mr Darcy's Diary boldly goes where Jane Austen never does' FINANCIAL TIMESThis intimate diary tells us of his entanglements with women, his dangerous friendship with Byron, his daily life in Georgian London, his mercurial mood swings calmed only by fisticuffs at Jackson's - and, most importantly, his vain struggles to conquer his longing for Elizabeth. For the first time we discover what really happened between his sister and the dastardly Wickham. How did he distract his friend Bingley from pining for his beloved Jane? Why did he propose to another young woman? Only to his diary does he tell the full story. At last we see Darcy as he really is: and, beneath his polite facade, we find a sensitive, private and passionate man.

This volume contains a diverse selection of pieces that present views about men given by women. Some of the contributors write directly about men and how men see women, others prefer to view men at a distance, as a woman looking at men through the eyes of a female writer, or through the eyes of female characters in female writing. With British and European literatures, culture and film being discussed, the essays aim to provide a balance between approaches to male/female conflict, some with a defensive attitude to women, and others with a more detached view. The articles presented include: a sociologist offering her knowledge on divorce; a psychoanalyst discussing the problems of a female analyst faced with male patients; and an historian viewing aspects of 19th-century male attitudes in Britain from the French perspective.
