This book examines Austen's novels in relation to her philosophical and religious context, demonstrating that the combination of the classical and theological traditions of the virtues is central to her work. Instead of defining virtue only in the narrow sense of female sexual virtue, Austen opens up questions about a plurality of virtues.
