Описание к видео Jane Austen’s False Friends: Isabella Thorpe, her Precursors and her Successors

This paper will focus on Northanger Abbey’s Isabella Thorpe, the falsest friend of all in Austen’s novels, while also considering some of the predecessors and successors in works ranging from Love and Freindship and Catharine, or The Bower to Mansfield Park.
