Introduction
[...]queer literature possesses the potential of having transformative effect on its targeted audience. [...]Straight defends the conclusion of the novel, which is often described as clichéd, as an appropriate reflection of Dostoevsky's conclusion for \"The Grand Inquisitor,\" the inexorable triumph of love over hatred, which involves not the power of love, but the giving away of power. [...]Fish explains, \"young people of color found themselves in a doubly admiring and threatening national spotlight.\"

Who was Jane Austen?
\"Step into the world of Georgian England and learn more about the genteel life of this beloved author. Although Jane Austen's works were first published anonymously and brought her little personal recognition, today they are rarely out of print and have inspired movies, television shows and mini-series, literary anthologies, and many other adaptations all around the world. Her writing--principally her five novels--is a critique of the British landed gentry at the end of the eighteenth century, and often a comment on the pursuit of a \"good match\" in matters of marriage. Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Mansfield Park, Emma, and Northhanger Abbey remain her most famous works.
