Austen Jane Sense & Sensibility
For Elinor Dashwood, sensible and sensitive, and her romantic, impetuous younger sister Marianne, the prospect of marrying the men they love appears remote. In a world ruled by money and self-interest, the Dashwood sisters have neither fortune nor connections. Concerned for others and for social proprieties, Elinor is ill-equipped to compete with self-centred fortune-hunters like Lucy Steele, whilst Marianne's unswerving belief in the truth of her own feelings makes her more dangerously susceptible to the designs of unscrupulous men. Through her heroines' parallel experiences of love, loss, and hope, Jane Austen offers a powerful analysis of the ways in which women's lives were shaped by the claustrophobic society in which they had to survive.

Austen Jane Sense and sensibility
In the short summer night she learnt so much. She would have thought a woman would have died of shame. Instead of which, the shame died. Shame, which is fear: the deep organic shame, the old, old physical fear which crouches in the bodily roots of us, and can only be chased away by the sensual fire, at last it was roused up and routed by the phallic hunt of the man, and she had come to the real bed-rock of her nature, and was essentially shameless. She was her sensual self, naked and unashamed. She felt a triumph, almost a vainglory. So! That was how it was! That was life! That was how oneself really was. There was nothing left to disguise or be ashamed of. She shared her ultimate nakedness with a man, another being.

Austen Jane Sense and Sensibility
One of England's greatest writers, Jane Austen was born on 16 December 1775 at Steventon, Hampshire, where she lived the better part of her life. With her only sister, Cassandra, she was schooled briefly by a Mrs Ann Cawley, and rounded out her education through the efforts of her older brothers and her father, an Anglican vicar. Sense and Sensibility began as Elinor and Marianne, Austen's first full-length novel, which is thought to have been written before 1796. She returned to the work late in 1797, revising it greatly. Published in 1811, when she was 35, Sense and Sensibility was the first of Austen's novels to appear in English bookstores. It was a well-received work, selling out its print-run in under two years, and was followed by Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814) and Emma (1816). As with her other novels, Sense and Sensibility concerns the question of suitable romantic partnerships and, ultimately, marriage. However, the author herself never wed, though she was briefly engaged - for a matter of hours - at the age of 26. Austen's life was not a long one. In the early months of 1816, her health began to fail. Over the course of the next months she managed to revise an old novel, Northanger Abbey, and compose another, Persuasion. However, by mid-March 1817, Austen was no longer able to write. She travelled to Winchester for treatment, and died there on 18 July 1817. Northanger Abbey (1817), Persuasion (1817) and Sanditon (1925), an unfinished novel, were all published posthumously.
