‘The truth is she did the right thing’: The mystery of why Jane Austen’s letters were destroyed – by her own sister

In fact, the mysterious element in Hornbi’s novel is simply a delivery mechanism for an effective exploring of the unmarried woman’s lack of control of their lives in this period. They often have little or non -existent money and could depend on the relative association – which may or could not be coming.

“The subjugation of a woman was the dominant issue in their existence,” says Horneby. “Their life was a path of obstacle, and it escaped from the pitfalls part of every day. We do not see it, of course, because we live with many options ourselves. But Austin’s novels are everyone About subjugating women. All of her heroines – Emma – at first dangerous. Those girls are Bennett [from Pride and Prejudice] Once their father dies, they will not have money, nor a house. Marriage is the only rescue plan – as Mrs. Bennett sees wisely. We read it as a comic creation – and of course, play with laughter. But in reality, she is the reasonable person who can see the great risks in front of us. ”

Andrea Jeep, who adapted Miss Austin on the screen, says she fell in love with the book immediately. “He is very beautifully designed, and Austin can write herself. It contains everything. Plots, ambiguity, love and love. Not only romantic love but the continuous love of life between the sisters. The female experience in her heart is largely from the story.

This year is the 250th anniversary of Jane Austin. In addition to Miss Austin, the BBC assigned the other sister of Bennett, a transverse drama of pride and prejudice about Mary Bennett based on the novel Jeanis Hallo. It has been reported that Netflix has an air conditioning of pride and prejudice. In a book published later this year, Wild for Austen: Rebelling a rebellious, sabotage, and non -experienced, and Vooser hopes to demolish the “continuous myth that Austin was moderate, boring and boring,” she says. Jane Austin’s call does not appear at all signs of decline.
