Taken from the poverty of her parents' home in Portsmouth, Fanny Price is brought up with her rich cousins at Mansfield Park, acutely aware of her humble rank and with her cousin Edmund as her sole ally. During her uncle's absence in Antigua, the Crawford's arrive in the neighbourhood bringing with them the glamour of London life and a reckless taste for flirtation. Mansfield Park is considered Jane Austen's first mature work and, with its quiet heroine and subtle examination of social position and moral integrity, one of her most profound.
Jane Austen (16 December 1775 – 18 July 1817) was an English novelist known principally for her five major novels which interpret, critique and comment upon the life of the British landed gentry at the end of the 18th century. Her most highly praised novel during her own lifetime was Pride and Prejudice which was her second published novel. Her plots often reflect upon the dependence of women on marriage in the pursuit of favorable social standing and economic security. Austen's main novels are rarely out of print today though they were first published anonymously and brought her little personal fame with only a few glancing reviews during her lifetime. A significant transition in her posthumous reputation as an author occurred in 1869, fifty-two years after her death, when her nephew published A Memoir of Jane Austen which effectively introduced her to a wider public and reading audience. Austen's most successful novel in her own lifetime was Pride and Prejudice which went through two editions during her own life. Her third published novel was Mansfield Park which was largely overlooked by the professional reviewers though it was a great success with the public still within her lifetime. All five of her major novels were published for the first time between 1811 and 1818. From 1811 until 1816, with the premiere publication of Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814) and Emma (1815), she achieved success as a published writer. She wrote two additional novels Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, both published posthumously in 1818, and began another one, which was eventually titled Sanditon, but died before completing it.

Classic Literature for Travel Reading Published by Bearleader Chronicle: It would be hard to find another piece of English literature so well-known, so enduring, so well-read, so adapted. Something that strikes such a cord with its readers must have been authored by a highly trained and experienced writer. But it's not true. Jane Austen started writing purely for entertainment, to amuse herself and her family. It was only much later, near the end of her life, that she set about editing her life's work into the six published novels we know and love.Pride and Prejudice, one of my favorite of Austen's writings, was penned in her early twenties, at her family home in Steventon, Hampshire, about halfway between London and Bath - both cities in which Austen lived for a time.Like all Austen's stories, this one is carefully constructed from Austen's keen observations of life in the pastoral English countryside, with all its foibles ambitions and eccentricities. She once wrote, "Three or four families in a country village is the very thing to work on." And as far as she was concerned, her local observations were enough to tell the story of the whole human family.So, let's take a short trip to the English countryside as Jane Austen introduces us to the Bennet family, guiding us through their lives, triumphs and tribulations.

She was the seventh child-out of eight-and second daughter of Cassandra (nee Leigh) and the Reverend George Austen. She was born on December 16, 1775, in Steventon, Hampshire, England. Her parents were well-respected middle-class community members. Her father was the local Anglican clergyman and supplemented the family income by taking private pupils in the family home and parsonage. Her mother, Cassandra Leigh Austen, came from an aristocratic family and influenced Jane's sense of social class and self-worth. When they were young, Jane and her six brothers and sister were encouraged to read from their father's extensive library. With a romantic vein, but nevertheless a realist-known for her style and ironic humor as well as for her fascinating depiction of women's domestic roles of the early nineteenth century-Austen wrote -Sense and Sensibility- (1811), -Pride and Prejudice- (1813), -Mansfield Park- (1814), -Emma- (1815), -Northanger Abbey- (1817), and -Persuasion- (1818), all of which replete with memorable protagonists-as is Elizabeth Bennet, in -Pride and Prejudice.-
