emma

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue could be a double definition.

'woman' is the first definition.

'literature' is the second definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for emma that I've seen before include "Eponymous heroine" , "Name of Nelson's Lady Hamilton" , "Novel by June Austen" , "Jane Austen novel and Nelson's lover" , "Mrs Bovary" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
