Taking Edward Said's reading of Mansfield Park as its point of departure, the paper firstly considers Said's implicit attribution of moral responsibility for the novel's complicity with imperialism to Jane Austen herself, secondly discusses the question that this raises for the theory of discourse which informs Said's reading and some of the ways in which these questions could be addressed, and lastly considers the status of blaming practices within literary contexts
