In celebration of Austen in August, here are some beautiful editions of Jane Austen’s works that would make the perfect addition to any Janeite’s collection:
Harvard University Press Annotated Editions
Folio Society Jane Austen Collection
Jane Austen in Her Own Hand Boxed Set
Arcturus Jane Austen Collection
Classics Reimagined, Pride and Prejudice
Do you have a favorite Austen edition?

Don’t forget the Cambridge University Press editions edited by Janet Todd 🙂 they tend to be the ones that academics in the UK quote from. They’ve also got lovely burgundy covers and a nice big font… the only problem is they’re too chunky for travelling with… I like my battered little Oxford University Press ones for travelling purposes- much lighter, and I feel less guilty for the destruction they undergo in my backpack… which editions do you own?

I probably own too many editions! The Oxford University Press books are great for reading-I still have a few from my University course on Austen.
From this list I own: 3 of the Vintage classics, the HUP Annotated editions, the In Her Own Hand Boxed set, and the 2 illustrated Pride and Prejudice editions.
My favorite edition would have to be the first Austen I read- my battered copy of P & P from the late 90’s.

The “in her own hand” edition looks gorgeous and so do the HUP ones 🙂

I’d have every addition of Jane Austen’s novels if I could! I have a Clothbound copy of Persuasion, but The Vintage Classics ones are my favourites.
