Notes

Jane Austen, a renowned English novelist of the 19th century, left a lasting literary legacy with her six novels. "Sense and Sensibility" (1811) explores the contrasting personalities of the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne, in matters of love and societal expectations. "Pride and Prejudice" (1813) is a timeless tale of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy, navigating social norms and misconceptions on the road to love. "Mansfield Park" (1814) delves into the life of Fanny Price, examining class and morality. "Emma" (1815) introduces the charming but misguided matchmaker Emma Woodhouse. "Northanger Abbey" (1817) satirizes Gothic novels while telling the story of Catherine Morland. Lastly, "Persuasion" (1817) portrays the rekindled romance between Anne Elliot and Captain Frederick Wentworth, offering a nuanced exploration of second chances and societal expectations. Austen's novels continue to captivate readers with their wit, social commentary, and enduring characters.
