　　英國曆史人物簡·奧斯汀

奧斯汀終身未婚，家道小康。由於居住在鄉村小鎮，接觸到的是中小地主、牧師等人物以及他們恬靜、舒適的生活環境，因此她的作品裏沒有重大的社會矛盾。她以女性特有的細緻入微的觀察力，真實地描繪了她周圍世界的小天地，尤其是紳士淑女間的婚姻和愛情風波。她的作品格調輕鬆詼諧，富有喜劇性衝突，深受讀者歡迎。奧斯汀的小說出現在19世紀初葉，一掃風行一時的假浪漫主義潮流，繼承和發展了英國18世紀優秀的現實主義傳統，爲19世紀現實主義小說的高潮做了準備。雖然其作品反映的廣度和深度有限，但她的作品如“兩寸牙雕”，從一個小窗口中窺視到整個社會形態和人情世故，對改變當時小說創作中的庸俗風氣起了好的作用，在英國小說的發展史上有承上啓下的意義，被譽爲地位“可與莎士比亞平起平坐”的作家。

Jane Austen (16 December 1775 – 18 July 1817) was an English novelist whose works of romantic fiction, set among the landed gentry, earned her a place as one of the most widely read writers in English literature. Her realism, biting irony and social commentary have gained her historical importance among scholars and critics.

Austen lived her entire life as part of a close-knit family located on the lower fringes of the English landed gentry. She was educated primarily by her father and older brothers as well as through her own reading. The steadfast support of her family was critical to her development as a professional writer. Her artistic apprenticeship lasted from her teenage years into her thirties.

During this period, she experimented with various literary forms, including the epistolary novel which she then abandoned, and wrote and extensively revised three major novels and began a fourth. From 1811 until 1816, with the release of Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814) and Emma (1816), she achieved success as a published writer. She wrote two additional novels, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, both published posthumously in 1818, and began a third, which was eventually titled Sanditon, but died before completing it.

Austen's works critique the novels of sensibility of the second half of the 18th century and are part of the transition to 19th-century realism. Her plots, though fundamentally comic, highlight the dependence of women on marriage to secure social standing and economic security.
