Autorenporträt
Jane Austen (1775-1817) remains a towering figure in the pantheon of English literature, celebrated for her sharp wit, astute observations of social mores, and pioneering role as a female author in a predominantly male literary world. Born on December 16, 1775, in Steventon, Hampshire, Austen lived the majority of her life in the rural English countryside, which became the serene backdrop against which she wrote her novels. Her education, although not formal, was comprehensive, facilitated by her father's extensive library, allowing her to delve into the classics and contemporary works, which influenced her literary style and voice. Austen's novel 'Raison et Sensibilité / Sense and Sensibility - Edition bilingue: français - anglais' reflects her adeptness at creating nuanced characters and exploring the complexities of human relationships. Originally published in 1811, her first major novel is celebrated for its exploration of two contrasting temperaments through the lives of the Dashwood sisters: the rational Elinor and the emotional Marianne. Austen's style is characterized by her use of free indirect discourse—a technique that allows for a more intimate connection between her characters' thoughts and the reader—and her commentary on societal structures, particularly those related to gender and class. Her other notable works include 'Pride and Prejudice', 'Emma', 'Mansfield Park', 'Northanger Abbey', and 'Persuasion'. Despite her novels receiving modest success during her lifetime, Austen's reputation grew posthumously, and she is now considered one of the greatest novelists in the English language.
