Autorenporträt
Jane Austen (1775-1817) was een Engelse schrijfster die bekend stond om haar scherpe humor, scherp inzicht in de menselijke natuur en tijdloze portrettering van liefde, maatschappij en klasse. Ze schreef zes grote romans, waaronder Sense and Sensibility, Emma en Pride and Prejudice, die lezers al meer dan twee eeuwen boeien. Haar werken worden geroemd om hun scherpzinnige observaties van de sociale structuren van haar tijd en hun complexe vrouwelijke hoofdpersonen. De romans van Austen behoren nog steeds tot de meest geliefde en meest gelezen romans in de Engelse taal.
