What are her characters doing when they take the measure of a person's 'air' and 'address'? These questions and more are answered in this Janeite treasure trove, which examines the distinctive language woven through Austen's signature stories.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Much of the language used in Austen's time has either fallen out of common use or changed valence in significant and surprising ways.
