Abstract

The essay compares and contrasts the novels of early 19th century English women authors Janes Austen and Catherine Hutton, considering contemporary reception and criticisms of their novels. Hutton's novels "The Miser Married," "The Welsh Mountaineer," and "Oakwood Hall" are considered against Austen's works including "Emma," "Pride and Prejudice," and "Northanger Abbey." Topics include books and reading in the early 19th century, the letters of Hutton, and narrative techniques.
