literary themes and characters with David Hume's views on
morality and human nature.
* Argues that the normative perspectives endorsed in Jane
Austen's novels are best characterized in terms of a Humean
approach, and that the merits of Hume's account of ethical,
aesthetic and epistemic virtue are vividly illustrated by Austen's
writing.
* Illustrates how Hume and Austen complement one another, each
providing a lens that allows us to expand and elaborate on the
ideas of the other
* Proposes that literature may serve as a thought experiment,
articulating hypothetical cases which allow the reader to test her
moral intuitions
* Contributes to ongoing debates on the philosophy of literature,
ethics, and emotion
