"This edition firmly anchors the novel in its cultural moment, both highlighting the imperial history against which it was written and offering a robust sampling of its reception history. This new edition is rich, nuanced, and urgently needed."
--Patricia Matthew, Montclair State University
"On the surface, Persuasion is a simple story of love, loss, and reunion, but the realities of early nineteenth-century life become poignantly clear in Jane Austen's brilliant hands. Though never overtly political, as Norton's Third Critical Edition of Persuasion demonstrates, Austen is surprisingly adept at treating global concerns and understanding the triumphs and tragedies of the turbulent changes that marked her world."
