She preserved these early writings in three manuscript notebooks, entitled, with mock solemnity, 'Volume the First', 'Volume the Second', and 'Volume the Third'. Most of these works are short fictions, but Austen also wrote the opening of what could have become a full-length novel, 'Catharine', as well as dramatic sketches, verses, and a few non-fictional pieces. Astonishingly sophisticated and inventive, these writings are now receiving the scholarly attention they deserve. This edition provides a fresh transcription of Austen's manuscripts, with comprehensive explanatory notes, an extensive critical introduction, covering the context and publication history of the juvenilia, a chronology of Austen's life and an authoritative textual apparatus. It also prints, for the first time, the copious satirical marginalia that Austen wrote on her copies of Oliver Goldsmith's History of England.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e Note on the text\u003cbr\u003e Volume the First: Frederic and Elfrida\u003cbr\u003e Jack and Alice\u003cbr\u003e Edgar and Emma\u003cbr\u003e Henry and Eliza\u003cbr\u003e The adventures of Mr Harley\u003cbr\u003e Sir William Mountague\u003cbr\u003e Memoirs of Mr Clifford\u003cbr\u003e The beautiful Cassandra\u003cbr\u003e Amelia Webster\u003cbr\u003e The Visit\u003cbr\u003e The Mystery\u003cbr\u003e The Three Sisters\u003cbr\u003e A fragment - written to inculcate the practise of Virtue\u003cbr\u003e A beautiful description of the different effects of Sensibility on different Minds\u003cbr\u003e The Generous Curate\u003cbr\u003e Ode to Pity\u003cbr\u003e Volume the Second: Love and Freindship\u003cbr\u003e Lesley Castle\u003cbr\u003e The History of England\u003cbr\u003e A Collection of Letters\u003cbr\u003e The female philosopher\u003cbr\u003e The First Act of a Comedy\u003cbr\u003e A Letter from a Young Lady\u003cbr\u003e A Tour through Wales\u003cbr\u003e A Tale\u003cbr\u003e Volume the Third: Evelyn, Catharine, or the Bower\u003cbr\u003e Corrections and Emendations\u003cbr\u003e Appendix A.
