Jane Austen
Jane Austen was a prominent English novelist known for her keen observations of society, intricate character development, and witty commentary on love, class, and the role of women in the early 19th century. Her works often feature strong, intelligent female protagonists navigating the complexities of relationships and societal expectations. Her six significant novels, Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Emma, Mansfield Park, Northanger Abbey, and Persuasion, explore themes such as the societal dependence of women on marriage for social standing and economic security.
Although she was not widely recognised during her lifetime, Austen's popularity surged in the 19th century, and she is now regarded as one of the greatest novelists in the English language.
