GR - Wondering about scenery Written by CarolTS (3/30/2003 4:19 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Wading through Udolpho (with early spoilers), penned by Barbara

] I find there are a lot of descriptions, especially of scenery, which is something Jane Austen almost never does. And the characters seem to tear up at the very sight of beautiful scenery about once per page.

Did Jane put a lot of description in her Juvenilia as part of the parodies she was doing or did she never do that part?
