If you would like to know more about Jane Austen, visit The Republic of Pemberley at http://pemberly.com . The site features discussion lists, thorough examinations of Austen’s works, and the full text of her writings. (While there, I found Austen’s most explicit love scene at http://pemberley.com/janeinfo/emmasens.html . It’s a far cry from the intimacy found in this film.)
Check the Electric Literature Foundation at http://elf.chaoscafe.com for the text of many classic novels, by several authors ( including Jane Austen), in a searchable form.
