My research project

In my research project, I examine the online fandom gathered around the works of Jane Austen, and more especially the neo-Victorian ideas of love and desire constructed in fanfiction texts and paratexts. I am also interested in the ongoing negotiation of authorship roles and interpretive authority in the Austen fandom.
