Autor

Jane Austen was born on December 16, 1775, in Steventon, Hampshire, into a well-read family. As the seventh of eight children, she was close to her sister Cassandra, who became her lifelong confidante. With ample access to literature, Austen began writing early, crafting stories and plays for her family, honing her understanding of social dynamics.Austen's first success was Sense and Sensibility in 1811, followed by Pride and Prejudice in 1813. Her novels critiqued class-conscious Regency England, exploring marriage, morality, and women's limited roles. Published anonymously as "A Lady," Austen's work reflected societal restrictions on women writers.After her death in 1817, Austen's reputation grew, with Northanger Abbey and Persuasion released posthumously. Her novels are now iconic, celebrated for their wit, style, and insight into human nature. Austen's influence endures through adaptations and study, marking her as one of English literature's greatest novelists.
