Spatiotemporal movements and psychological change: walking and dancing -- 5. Conclusion.This book argues that there are recurrent spatiotemporal patterns and structures in six Jane Austen novels which constitute a source of enduring, if unconscious, pleasure. More precisely, the book contends that there are overlapping natural and cultural cycles which co-exist in a constantly transmuting space-time and which are counterpointed with the linearity of pivotal events that drive the plot forwards. This work examines the psychological relations to these space-time patterns of the characters, principally the heroines, focusing on the transformations of their emotional states which prompt linear leaps.Literature, Modern18th centuryLiterature, Modern20th centuryEuropean literatureEighteenth-Century LiteratureTwentieth-Century LiteratureEuropean LiteratureLiterature, ModernLiterature, ModernEuropean literature.Eighteenth-Century Literature.Twentieth-Century Literature.European Literature.823.7Baublyté Kaufmann Rutaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut855647BOOK9910300042503321The Architecture of Space-Time in the Novels of Jane Austen1910335UNINA
