She asks the elder miss Dashwoods to join her in London. Elanor immediately refuses, saying that they need to be with their mother, but Mrs. Jennings doesn't want to hear no for an answer. Sir John also understands that Marianne would actually like to go to London, and the girls are thus forced to ask their mother for permission, and Elanor soon consents. Mrs Dashwood is very happy to let the girls go to London as she feels that they would be likely to run into Willoughby in town, and potentially Edward too. Mrs Dashwood is also excited about the possibility of redecorating the rooms of the girls and knows that it would be easier to do if the girls were away for a while. Elanor and Marianne are to travel with Mrs. Jennings in her chaise, and Sir John is very excited to have more people join them in London.SEO stuff I don't want to do. Jane Austin's timeless classic Sense and Sensibility follows the story of two girls, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, and their endeavors in love, marriage, and societal expectations. Love is not easy however, and Elinor finds her sense tested by her charming brother-in-law, while Marianne's sensibility brings her nothing but heartbreak.

Nick Cohen and Dr Bharat Tandon, academic, novelist & Booker Prize judge, discuss Jane Austen's astonishing legacy before delving into a detailed analysis of her enduring popularity and literary significance. They explored themes of claustrophobia in Austen's works, particularly how her novels depict the constraints of patriarchal structures and economic relations for women, while also examining the misinterpretation of her writing by modern figures like Milo Yiannopoulos. The discussion concluded with an analysis of Austen's subtle political commentary in "Mansfield Park" and her innovative narrative style, emphasising the importance of returning to the original texts for a deeper understanding of her work.Bharat and Nick discuss the theme of claustrophobia in the works of early 19th-century women writers, particularly focusing on Jane Austen. They explore how Austen's novels, such as "Sense and Sensibility" and "Pride and Prejudice," depict the inescapable constraints of patriarchal structures and economic relations for women. Bharat highlighted the significance of the number 27 in Austen's fiction, representing the age at which women might lose economic security and be forced into undesirable marriages.Nick compares Austen's portrayal of a claustrophobic society to modern experiences of social media, where individuals are constantly under scrutiny. They also discussed Austen's innovative narrative style, which allows readers to connect with marginalised female characters while highlighting their societal constraints.Slavery in Austen's 'Mansfield ParkBharat and Nick discuss the portrayal of slavery in Jane Austen's "Mansfield Park," analyzing whether the novel is complicit with the social injustices of its time. Bharat argues that while the novel acknowledges the economic and ethical presence of slavery, it does not easily draw the conclusion that Austen is complicit with it. Instead, he suggests that the novel highlights the socio-economic guilt of the early 19th century without offering a solution, reflecting the characters' anxious avoidance of discussing slavery.Read all about it!

Lucy is more than happy to talk about it and says that she felt like she had upset Elanor with her information. Lucy claims that as she is used to a small income, she could do without any money that Edward's mother could give him, but she knows that Edward could not. They need to wait until his mother passes away, and Lucy says that she could only wait for Edward, no other man. Lucy says that she has come up with a plan to have Elanor help her get married to Edward. She says that if Elanor were to ask her brother to let Edward go to the church in Norland, then everything would be sorted. Lucy laments that it would perhaps be better to call the whole thing off and asks Elanor's opinion of it. Elanor refuses to answer. Their conversation ends with an invitation to go to London which Elanor refuses as well.SEO stuff I don't want to do.

Today we are revisiting a Berkeley Talks episode in which a cross-disciplinary panel of UC Berkeley professors, whose expertise ranges from political science to philosophy, discuss how they view decision-making from their respective fields, and how we can use these approaches to make better, more informed choices. Panelists include: Wes Holliday, professor of philosophy. Holliday studies group decision-making, including the best methods of voting, especially in the democratic context. Marika Landau-Wells, assistant professor of political science.

Though Jane Austen went largely unrecognized in her own lifetime—four of her six novels were published anonymously, and the other two only after her death—her name is now synonymous with the period romance. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz choose their personal favorites from her œuvre—“Emma,” “Persuasion,” and “Mansfield Park”—and attempt to get to the heart of her appeal. Then they look at how Austen herself has been characterized by readers and critics. We know relatively little about Austen as a person, but that hasn't stopped us from trying to understand her psyche. It's a difficult task in part because of the double-edged quality to her writing: Austen, although renowned for her love stories, is also a keen satirist of the Regency society in which these relationships play out. “I think irony is so key, but also sincerity,” Schwartz says. “These books are about total realism and total fantasy meeting in a way that is endlessly alluring.”This episode originally aired on June 12, 2025. Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Pride and Prejudice,” by Jane Austen“Persuasion,” by Jane Austen“Emma,” by Jane Austen“Mansfield Park,” by Jane Austen“Sense and Sensibility,” by Jane Austen“Northanger Abbey,” by Jane Austen“Virginia Woolf on Jane Austen” (The New Republic)Emily Nussbaum on “Breaking Bad” and the “Bad Fan” (The New Yorker)“How to Misread Jane Austen,” by Louis Menand (The New Yorker)“Miss Austen” (2025—)“Pride and Prejudice” (2005)Scenes Through Time's “Mr. Darcy Yearning for 10 Minutes” SupercutNew episodes drop every Thursday.

She questions whether he had duped her, but no, she feels certain that Edward's affection towards her is real, and that his engagement to Lucy is not one of the heart. She feels too that Edward could never truly be happy with a marriage to Lucy, and that his engagement to her will have lessened his feelings for her. She weeps for him but feels as though she can hide her new knowledge from her mother and her sister. Elanor feels that she could get no encouragement from her family if she was to share this information and feels as though she would just make them all feel worse. Elanor determines that she must again speak with Lucy. She needs to know all of her feelings towards Edward and must learn more about her engagement. She feels that Lucy must be a jealous person and must also try to show interest in her relationship to Edward as a friend.These opportunities seem few and in between as the weather has been too bad for a walk, and as they met in a group, it would be unproper for the two of them to meet only by themselves. One day, Sir John came to beg the Dashwood girls to lunch with his wife, as he needed to go to the club. Elanor and Margaret readily accepted, and Marianne was forced by her mother to go. After lunch, they set up some card tables, and soon, Lucy is soon asked by Lady Middleton to continue working on a basket that she had been making for her daughter and Elanor under the guise of lending a hand to Lucy finally finds a chance to be alone and converse with her rival.SEO stuff I don't want to do.

Elanor does find her agreeable enough for half an hour, but no more, as the girl is uneducated and illiterate. One day while walking back to the cottage, Lucy asks Elanor if she knows Edward's mother. Elanor finds the question strange, and after some little conversation, Lucy intimates that she knows Edward very well, but has never met his mother. Elanor is shocked by this revelation and Lucy goes on to reveal, because she apparently trusts Elanor, that she and Edward have been engaged for several years, and that she keeps a picture of him on her person, and that the ring embossed with a lock of hair contains the hair of Lucy. Elanor is shocked, and though she tries to remain polite, is very glad once Lucy leaves to go back to Barton Park.SEO stuff I don't want to do.

Jane Austen was born in the 16th of December, 1775, which means this month marks her 250th birthday. Jane lived a quiet, mostly happy life in the English countryside, surrounded by the balls, romantic intrigues and family dramas that fill her novels. Her writing was always her true passion. She glimpsed success, with 4 books becoming wildly popular in her lifetime. But she died tragically young, depriving the world of her talent. Her stories have been adapted and re imagined countless times. And in this, Jane's 250th year, she continues to be a mainstay in pop culture. But let's look past the endearing characters and timeless stories, and met the woman holding the quill. Let's get to know Jane Austen...

The award-winning actress Emma Thompson takes questions on Sense and Sensibility in this special episode of Bookclub to mark the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen's birth. Sense and Sensibility was Jane Austen's first novel published in 1811 when she was thirty-five years old. The book follows the Dashwood sisters as they navigate their way through love and and threat of its loss. Marianne Dashwood wears her heart on her sleeve, and when she falls in love with the dashing but unsuitable John Willoughby she ignores her sister Elinor's warning that her impulsive behaviour leaves her open to gossip and innuendo. Meanwhile Elinor, always sensitive to social convention, is struggling to conceal her own romantic disappointment. Emma Thompson won an Oscar for her screen adaptation of the 1995 film, of the same name, in which she played Elinor Dashwood. The film also starred Kate Winslet as Marianne Dashwood, Hugh Grant as Edward Ferrars, Alan Rickman as Colonel Brandon, and Greg Wise as John Willoughby. This episode was recorded at Broadcasting House, London, in August.Producer: Dominic Howell Editor: Gillian Wheelan This was a BBC Audio Scotland production.

2025 marks 250 years since the birth of Jane Austen, the English writer whose finely tuned observations of Regency life shaped the modern novel. But perhaps more notably for Screenshot, it's also 30 years since Colin Firth walked out of a lake and straight into the nation's hearts, in the BBC's Pride and Prejudice miniseries.Three decades on from the ‘Austenmania' of 1995, Ellen E Jones and Mark Kermode explore Jane Austen adaptations past and present. Do screen versions of novels like Emma and Sense and Sensibility offer a cosy retreat from the modern world - or do they still have something to say in the present moment? Mark speaks to film writer and researcher Lillian Crawford about various Austen triumphs and missteps on screen, from numerous incarnations of Emma, to Netflix's recent update on her last novel, Persuasion. He also speaks to playwright Nick Dear about an adaptation many Austen experts consider a high-water mark - the 1995 version of Persuasion, written by Dear and directed by Roger Michell for the BBC's Screen Two strand. Meanwhile, Ellen talks to Amy Heckerling, writer and director of the classic 1995 comedy Clueless, which transplants Austen's novel Emma to a Beverly Hills high school. And she also speaks to writer-director Celine Song, whose recent film Materialists stars Dakota Johnson as a professional matchmaker - and unmistakably bears the influence of Austen. Producer: Jane Long A Prospect Street production for BBC Radio 4

Mrs Palmer is very pushy towards the girls, wishing for them to come to the city and visit them. Mr Palmer is as gloomy and miserable as usual. Sir John pokes fun at Marianne for her love of Willoughby, and Mrs Palmer adds that Willoughby does not live too far from them, and invites them to visit them at they home as well as London. Mr Palmer calls out Mrs. Jennings, and Sir John for being what “ill-bred” for not wanting to abide by social rules. He, according to the girls, believe that he wishes to appear superior to everyone else. His wife also reveals that her husband is running for parliament, and as Willoughby is a member of the opposition, Mr Palmer probably wouldn't visit him. Apparently everyone is London is talking about the engagement of Marianne and Willoughby. Mrs. Palmer got the information from Colonel Brandon. Elanor tries to skirt around the subject of Marianne's relationship with Willoughby and tries to get more information about the Colonel. SEO stuff I don't want to do.

Greg Jenner is joined in Regency England by historian Dr Lucy Worsley and actor Sally Phillips to learn all about the life and works of literary legend Jane Austen on the 250th anniversary of her birth in December 1775.It is a truth universally acknowledged that Jane Austen is one of England's best-loved authors, and the creator of such indelible characters as Elizabeth Bennet, Mr Darcy, Emma Woodhouse and Elinor and Marianne Dashwood. Whether you have read one of her six books – Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Persuasion, Emma, Northanger Abbey and Mansfield Park – or seen one of the many adaptations, most of us have some experience with Austen. But her life story and how it influenced her writing is perhaps less well-known. This episode explores her early life as the daughter of a rural clergyman, takes a peek inside the books a teenage Jane was reading, and delves into her romantic and familial relationships to see what shaped Austen into the formidable literary talent she was. And it asks a key question: was Jane Austen, who wrote such wonderful women characters, a feminist?This is a radio edit of the original podcast episode.

He detested being in town, and didn't want to go to Norland, but he was going to go to one of them. Elanor believes that it is all his mother's fault. What Edward craves in independence, and in order to get it, Mrs. Dashwood asks why the man he never sought a profession. Edward explains that his wants always went against his parents wishes, and when he finally found something that he would maybe like, and that his family would agree to, he felt himself to be too old. After Edward's departure, Elanor tries to behave normally, and not back away from conversation about him.One morning, soon after the departure of Edward, Sir John Middleton, arrives with a party at Barton cottage. It is the Palmer family, Mrs. Jenning's and her son and daughter. Mrs. Palmer is a younger woman with a plump figure, and Mr. Palmer is a man of around twenty-five who contents himself in reading the paper, while the others talk. They stay for a while, and before leaving, Sir John presses the women of Barton Cottage to come for dinner.SEO stuff I don't want to do.

Marianne tries to leave her sister alone with Edward, but he decides instead to go and check on his horses. This seems to have been a good thing however, as he seems to appreciate the village and countryside a lot more than before. Marianne presses him to describe the areas as he sees them, but he refuses, as he has no knowledge of the picturesque. To him, it is a fine country, but nothing more, he cannot describe the country better. During this conversation, Marianne happens to notice a ring on Edward's finger, which is embossed with a plait of hair. Marianne thinks this hair to come from his sister, but Elanor knows it to actually be her own hair, and she is finally relieved and convinced once again is Edward's affections. At the middle of the day, they are greeted by Sir Middleton, and Mrs. Jennings, where the two are very quick to learn that Edward's surname begins with an F. Sir John Middleton also invites them all to tea, and to supper so that they can get to know this gentleman better. Sir John laments about Willoughby's absence, and following his and Mrs. Jenning's departure, Edward goes to Marianne to poke fun at her regarding this unknown man.SEO stuff I don't want to do.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for December 6, 2025 is: sensibility • sen-suh-BIL-uh-tee • noun Sensibility is a formal word often used in its plural form to refer someone's personal or cultural approach to what they encounter, as in “the speaker made sure to tailor his speech to the sensibilities of his audience.” Sensibility can also be used for the kind of feelings a person tends to have in general, as well as for the ability to feel and understand emotions. // Many older cartoons feel out of line with modern sensibilities. // She brought an artistic sensibility to every facet of her life, not just her celebrated painting. See the entry > Examples: “[Lady] Gaga's absurdist sensibilities have long been an underrated facet of her work—probably because she's so good at delivering them with a straight face.” — Rich Juzwiak, Pitchfork, 10 Mar. 2025 Did you know? The meanings of sensibility run the gamut from mere sensation to excessive sentimentality, but we're here to help you make sense of it all. In between is a capacity for delicate appreciation, a sense often pluralized. In Jane Austen's books, sensibility is mostly an admirable quality she attributes to, or finds lacking in, her characters: “He had ... a sensibility to what was amiable and lovely” (of Mr. Elliot in Persuasion). In Sense and Sensibility, however, Austen starts out by ascribing to Marianne sensibleness, on the one hand, but an “excess of sensibility” on the other: “Her sorrows, her joys, could have no moderation ... she was everything but prudent.”

He becomes interested in the family again. Mrs. Dashwood asks him about his mother, and Edward replies that while his mother is disappointed, she has concluded that she cannot force Edward to forgo his nature and become a famous orator/politician. Edward, above all else, wants to be happy. Elanor agrees only slightly with Edward's views, saying that money can bring happiness. Marianne is on Edwards side, claiming that “money can only give happiness where there is nothing else to give.” Elanor refutes her sister's points, claiming that Marianne does not believe what she says, as her idea of a small income is enough to have servants, horses, carriages, and hunters… Edwards is confused by Marianne's views, but before he can refute, Margret wishes that someone would just give them all a lump of money. The night goes on with them talking about what they would do if they were to all have enough money to do what ever they wished to do. Edward jokes that they would spend it all on books, music, theatre, and the like. He then asks her if her opinions on people only being able to fall in love Once have changed. They haven't. Marianne calls out Edward on his humour, and he retorts that he has never really been very genial. Edward goes on to say that he has never been at ease with people; he always seems to offend, when he is realistically only kept back by his own natural awkwardness. He says that he feels somewhat inferior, and it's probably that that keeps him from being easy with people. Marianne then jabs that he would still be reserved, which he takes offense at, as if he didn't know that he was reserved.SEO stuff I don't want to do. Jane Austin's timeless classic Sense and Sensibility follows the story of two girls, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, and their endeavors in love, marriage, and societal expectations.

She eats little, and cries for the majority of the time. She seems to nourish her grief by playing songs on the piano that she and he used to sing together, and reads books that they read together too. After several days she falls into a melancholy state. She has received no news from Willoughby, but Mrs. Dashwood seems to think this normal, as their letters get collected by Sir John before delivery. Elinor urges her mother to ask Marianne if she and Willoughby are engaged, but she refuses. The family walks on eggshells and tries not to mention his name and succeed in this endeavour for a few days until Mrs. Dashwood slipped up, causing Marianne to lament that she doesn't know when he will be coming back. After about a week, Marianne finally agrees to walk with Elinor on the downs where in the distance they see a gentleman on horseback riding towards them. Marianne exclaims it to be Willoughby and runs towards him, Elinor runs after her sister, knowing it not to be the man she loves. Arriving at the man, Marianne discovers it to not be Willoughby, but Edward Ferrars, and for a moment she is happy for her sister Elinor. This doesn't last long as Edward seems distant and confused at seeing the girls and is silent unless asked a question. Elinor is also a little disappointed by this, but persists at continuing a conversation with him while walking back to their cottage. SEO stuff I don't want to do.

When the come home, they find Marianne in tears running past them up the stairs to her room, and Willoughby in a disappointed state. On questioning, the girls learn that Willoughby has been asked to head to London on business; he is to leave that day. The women are shocked by this statement, and in spite of Mrs. Dashwood extending an invitation for him to stay with them as soon as his business is done, he states that he can not take up her up on her kind offer and leaves.Mrs Dashwood and Elinor are stunned and each of the women think about what could have caused Willoughby to act and speak so unlike himself. Elinor believes that her sister and Willoughby must have, no matter how hard to believe, had a large fight. Her mother soon descends the stairs to join her daughter. Mrs. Dashwood claims to have thought through Willoughby's behaviour and has concluded that the man had not the power to accept her kind offer and is still sure of Willoughby's love for her daughter. She believes that Mrs. Smith knows about and disapproves of Willoughby's attachment to Marianne and has sent him away from her. Elinor and her mother go back and forth a little and Elinor concludes that her mother's reasoning is probably correct, though she would have liked to have confirmation of their engagement.

In this episode of Convo By Design, I connect with London-based designer Juliette Byrne to explore how refined design adapts to different cultures and markets. From navigating international trade to redefining timeless interiors, Juliette shares how adaptability, craftsmanship, and collaboration drive her studio's continued success across continents. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. Design Hardware - A stunning and vast collection of jewelry for the home! TimberTech - Real wood beauty without the upkeep One of the unexpected gifts of the pandemic was the opportunity to connect with remarkable designers around the world from my Los Angeles studio. My conversation with Juliette, principal of her namesake firm in London, highlights just how universal good design can be. We talked about the contrasts between Los Angeles and London—two cities with vastly different scales, materials, and architectural rhythms—and how exceptional design principles translate beautifully in any setting. Juliette described how American brands like Holly Hunt find their place in European homes, and how that exchange of ideas enriches both markets. Our discussion naturally turned to the realities of global design, especially the political and logistical hurdles that come with tariffs and shipping. Juliette shared the challenges of importing products from across Europe and the U.S., explaining how her firm helps clients decide when an imported piece is worth the cost or when local craftsmanship is the smarter choice. Her story about a Dresden project—where customs required a fiber-by-fiber analysis of drapery fabrics—perfectly illustrated the level of complexity designers now face. We explored how design has evolved from an architectural accessory into an independent philosophy rooted in creativity and collaboration. Juliette's optimism stood out to me. She attributes her perspective to a “glass-half-full” mindset and the strong, talented team that supports her. Juliette walked me through her design process, emphasizing her studio's focus on sourcing from a broad network of suppliers rather than producing in-house. She compared interior design to fashion—forever changing, always inspired by color, material, and innovation. Her team's regular visits to Milan and Paris for exhibitions, and Ria's recent trip to New York to meet suppliers, reflect the studio's commitment to staying curious and connected. We also talked about her remarkable project in Dresden, where she transformed an 18th-century merchant's house into an elegant, richly detailed home. Juliette preserved historical carvings and plasterwork while integrating modern amenities like carefully designed lighting and personalized baths. The project earned a major European design award and is now nominated for another in Capri—a testament to her thoughtful approach and respect for craftsmanship. Juliette shared her perspective on kitchen and bath design, where timelessness is key. She favors natural materials—stone, wood, marble—and thoughtful lighting that elevates the everyday. She also noted how generational preferences shape aesthetics: younger clients in areas like Notting Hill often lean into playful colors and bold gestures, while others seek quiet, enduring elegance. Finally, Juliette described a major residential project completed during the pandemic, which demanded creative adaptation to remote collaboration and shifting schedules. Her ability to balance practicality with beauty during that time underscored a central theme of our conversation—design as both necessity and art. This conversation reminded me that design, in its truest form, is a global language. It's about adaptation, discovery, and finding richness in every creative challenge. And you're going to hear it all, right after this. Show Topics Design adaptability between Los Angeles and London Navigating tariffs, customs,

She is certain that something dreadful has befallen him, or that money matters have arisen, or that his sister is ill, or that Miss Williams is in town. Elinor is a little upset about the Colonel's departure but is more so engrossed in the silence of her sister and Willoughby. She wants the two of them to declare their love for each other and engagement. She knows that Willoughby doesn't have enough money yet to support his lifestyle, but believes that they could nonetheless announce their attachment. Willoughby seems really attached to the family. He has almost become a son and brother to the family. He seems to pass all of his time with Marianne, and the family. One week after the Colonel's departure, he overheard Mrs. Dashwood's ideas of improving the cottage in the spring, and he wholeheartedly refused the idea. Marianne and Mrs Dashwood eventually convince him that they shan't change the house if it would cause him harm. Willoughby goes on to flatter the cottage in a way that makes Mrs. Dashwood all but convinced of his engagement to Marianne. SEO stuff I don't want to do.

Elinor shuts down the idea, saying that Marianne didn't think this through and didn't think that they would have to build a stable and hire a servant to ride it. Marianne eventually understands and tells this to Willoughby, where he declares that the horse is already hers, and when she is ready to receive it, she can collect it from his estate, whenever that may be. Mrs. Dashwood overheard this conversation and confirms to herself that the two must be engaged. Margret also comes on the following day to Elinor and tells her that she saw Willoughby take a lock of Marianne's hair and put it in his pocketbook. One evening at the Park, Margret was attacked by Mrs. Jennings for the name of the man who owns Elinor's heart, and though Marianne tries to get her sister to be quiet, Margret lets more slip than necessary. Thankfully the conversation is shut down by Lady Middleton, and Willoughby.SEO stuff I don't want to do.

All of the events taking place were designed to bring Marianne and Willoughby closer. This worked like a treat, and Elinor even ventured to tell her sister that they should not be so overtly attached, but this is dismissed by the two of them. They spent every evening together, to the delight and humour of everyone else, causing Marianne to soon become content with her new life away from Norland.Elinor, however, is enjoying Barton far less. She is feeling alone, and in want of real conversation. Mrs. Jennings, and Lady Middleton, are not great conversationalists. Colonel Brandon is the only person with whom she can converse freely, but he is sadly still attached to Marianne… Elinor starts to suspect that he has previously been hurt in love, and she starts to sympathize with him.

Marianne is very pretty and has seems to have captured the heart of Willoughby already. They spend so much time talking together, and seem to agree on almost every point, so much so that they soon start to speak informally to each other. Elinor teases Marianne, that they will soon have exhausted every topic of conversation. Willoughby is everything that Marianne has ever wanted in a man, and Mrs. Dashwood starts to believe that Willoughby will soon propose to her daughter. Elinor, at the Park, starts to pity Colonel Brandon, and after some hints at past slights, she starts to talk to him kindly, regardless of the jests from Willoughby and Marianne.

Greg Jenner is joined in Regency England by historian Dr Lucy Worsley and actor Sally Phillips to learn all about the life and works of literary legend Jane Austen on the 250th anniversary of her birth in December 1775. It is a truth universally acknowledged that Austen is one of England's best-loved authors, and the creator of such indelible characters as Elizabeth Bennet, Mr Darcy, Emma Woodhouse and Elinor and Marianne Dashwood. Whether you have read one of her six books – Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Persuasion, Emma, Northanger Abbey and Mansfield Park – or seen one of the many adaptations, most of us have some experience with Austen. But her life story and how it influenced her writing is perhaps less well-known. This episode explores her early life as the daughter of a rural clergyman, takes a peek inside the books a teenage Jane was reading, and delves into her romantic and familial relationships to see what shaped Austen into the formidable literary talent she was. And it asks a key question: was Jane Austen, who wrote such wonderful women characters, a feminist?
