Jane Austen あらすじ・解説

Do you want to learn more about the great author Jane Austen, but don’t have time to read huge, long biographies? Then let The History Journals take you on an hourly history tour of his life.

Ever since Jane Austen’s first published novel Sense and Sensibility appeared anonymously in November 1811, the “lady” and her writing have proved to be enduringly popular. Although considered by some to be the province of academia, her characters and plots are often echoed in modern drama, with her favored themes of love, marriage, and money as relevant today as in the 19th century.

Jane herself has become a posthumous celebrity, despite only ever completing six novels, and it’s unbelievable that her quiet, short and seemingly uneventful life as the daughter of a country parson gave her such a remarkable understanding of human nature, still pertinent over two hundred years after her death. She truly was an extraordinary woman, often overshadowed by her immortal characters. Her own story is equally as fascinating as any she wrote, set against a background of one of the most exciting periods in English history. In this book, you will learn about her life beginning to end.
