It's terribly sad to know that she not only died young but in agony :( I have admired her work a long time and it motivates me to keep up on my own writing. We never know how much time we have left, just imagine what other work she may have potentially had in her. Cheers, Jane, you are well remembered. You would have loved Alan Rickman as Colonel Brandon.

No one has ever eclipsed the brilliant Jane Austen!

no need. they are all individuals

I love Jane Austin's profound intelligence, compassion, sensible approach to the life she lived. She had tenderness of heart, a sensitive attention to and dislike for hypocrisy, and care for others that refused to benefit from their weakness. I love her healthy distrust of her own motives and her love of and loyalty to her family and friends. Her life and art is based on a bedrock of simple joy and love, as well as personal longings and self control. How I wish there was another author writing with as much kindness and unflinching clarity about romantic relationships and marriage today. "Briget Jones" just doesn't cut the mustard.

Actually, she was delightfully nasty, as when she wrote about a neighbor's daughter dying at childbirth that the poor child must have gotten a look at her mother. Her novels are quite bitchy. She didn't suffer fools.

Jane was blessed having the urge and Courage writing her novels.... I Had pleasure reading all of them and watching the movies

adore her and her novels so much

Love Jane Austen novels,the more I watch her movies the more I lyke her novels.She is brilliant,never get tired of her,wish we had more novels from her. .To me she is the best.

She is a national treasure. This summer we visited Hill Top - Beatrix Potter's house. Next summer I would like to go to visit some of Jane Austen's places. My favourites are P and P, and S and S. Then Emma. It's interesting that both the Austen and the Bronte families had 8 children and both fathers were clergymen. Virginia Wolf also had 7 siblings, although their family was a blended one. The first wife of Mr Wolf gave him one daughter, then after she died he married a widow with 3 children of her own, and then they had 4 more children together, including Virginia and Vanessa. The author of Alice in Wonderland was a clergyman too, as was the author of Thomas the Tank Engine. Very interesting. L.M.Montgomery wasn't a daughter of a minister, but she married one,

She would never have called it stupid -- although, like Elizabeth Bennett, she would have owned frequently laughing at various behaviors she encountered. Her great moral guru -- Samuel Johnson -- had a lot to say about society. Oh, I would never call Jane Austen a Romantic. She understood the Romantic temperament -- personified by Marianne in Sense & Sensibility -- but Austen, to me, was best found in Marianne's elder, calmer sister Elinore. I don't know that Austen was a balance between the two, but she certainly understood both temperaments. A good novelist must draw on both.

I suspect she put the most of her own character and personality into Anne Elliot in Persuasion. Jane even had an alternate ending written in which Anne and Captain Wentworth don't end up together, but in the end she went with the more conventional romantic ending. Persuasion even involves an unwanted move to Bath, something Jane had to go through herself. Anne is a favorite Aunt as Jane was. Anne is also observant, pensive and analytical, just like Jane. I think if any character was her own stand-in, it was Anne.

@@cl5470 I always thought Jane Austen was closest to Elizabeth Bennet, with Lizzy’s love for her elder sister, Jane; her witty and sometimes acerbic views on people; her thoughts that you should only marry if in love; and her dislike of anything pretentious and phony. I guess that Jane Austen took after each of her heroines because they came out of her mind, her sensibilities.

Thank you for this Liam...very well narrated. What a writer indeed...

She captured the elegance of the age, a peak distinction of revealing sentiments expressed positively in life would lead to eventual happiness, if only one held onto wisdom, as patience in the good, while the breakers stormed ..life's upset as upheaval crashing away at expectations. Onset harsh instances, such times when we are affronted with ourselves moreso difficult times. Whereby unavoidable roads taken can open into passageways no easy exit available, severe turnings in tossed about situations determining who we really are in what we say as do. Words inset actions prove actual committments to dignity of self. Her characters who stayed to the path of significance given overall endured and were successful in achieving the heights...distance gone in accomplished upheld honor as integrity of standards set, in kept no matter the surface tumult. Those who succumbed beneath these incidences, contriving ends justified the means, were undone foremost by their own unjust doings, compromising others as equally themselves sold short. I admire most highly Jane Austen's depth of perception into human character... her books very much like reality itself whereby principles are more than rules but keys to unlocking future contentments... seers spectacle 'decency' perceived into future fulfillments of dreams coming true, should we each endeavor honestly.. believing that true love exist and utmost worthy our pursuit.

Of the pieces about Jane I've seen, this one I believe is most complete. Strangely, John Fowler who wrote The French Lieutenant's Womam used a s 'similar' storyline in Lyme and the cobb.

...as of her death, it's only conjecture to affirm that with the modern medicine she would have lived longer...people still die at young ages nowadays!!!

Jane had several opportunities to marry, there was the gentleman in the light morning coat (Tom sth?) who was apparently serious, but his parents forbade the match. It's sad she never found love but ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC that she never felt she had to sell herself to some shmoe just to survive.

The novels of Jane Austen were in fact written by Jane's sophisticated and educated cousin, Eliza de Feuillide. Eliza could not publish under her own name because she was the illegitimate daughter of Warren Hastings, the Governor General of India. To publish under her own name would have caused a scandal. Eliza had a fascinating life, completely different from the dull life of Jane Austen. She was born in Calcutta in India and given £10,000 by Warren Hastings to pay for her literary and musical education in London. She married a French count who was executed in the French Revolution. She spoke perfect French and played the piano, harp and harpsichord. Her second husband was Jane Austen's brother, Henry. They lived together in London and frequently visited the opera and theatre. Eliza acted in amateur theatricals similar to those in Mansfield Park and she was an accomplished amateur comedian. To find out about the fascinating life of Eliza and how the events in her life inspired each of the novels you can read my book "Jane Austen - a New Revelation".

Some of the novels are about rich women. For example, Emma is an heiress of thirty thousand pounds. As I show in my book, Eliza also wrote the works of Fanny Burney. Her second novel, Cecilia is about an heiress of £10,000 whose real father would not acknowledge her. Eliza was an heiress of £10,000 whose real father would not acknowledge her. Her third novel also has an heiress as its heroine. The first version of Pride and Prejudice was written in 1796, the year after Eliza returned from a trip to Derbyshire and Hertfordshire. In the book Pemberley is based on Chatsworth in Derbyshire, which Eliza visited on this trip, and Longbourn is based on Langley House in Hertfordshire which Eliza also visited on her way north. This house belonged to her friend and relation Stella Freeman.

Eliza would definitely not have spent her days writing novels. She was far too engrossed in flirting with any man she could and flaunting her accomplishments. Yes, Eliza (among other family members, friends, and acquaintances) was an inspiration to many parts of Jane's novels, but she definitely did not write them. Eliza passed away (1813) before the some of Jane Austen's novels were even written. Try again. Stick with the "Eliza inspired" line. It's more plausible considering the dates, plus, we all know Lady Bertram is based on Eliza.
