Rezensionen

"This is an exciting project, which makes an important and significant contribution to the fields of fan studies and readership studies. Kylie Mirmohamadi's work provides a new perspective on Austen's reception, highlighting in particular the intertextual (in the broadest sense of the word) nature of how Austen is now received and perceived in today's world." - Katie Halsey, University of Stirling, UK
