  • Analysis of Female Consciousness in Jane Austen's Works
    Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 497 Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Literature, Art and Human Development (ICLAHD 2020) Analysis of Female Consciousness in Jane Austen’s Works Cui Xiaoxi1, * 1Tourism School, Shandong Women’s University, Jinan, Shandong, 250300, China *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Jane Austen is the most important and most famous female writer during the 18th and 19th centuries in British history. She has written 6 novels during her whole life based on her own life experiences and her own understanding of women’s love and marriage. Most of the novels she has written are world-famous and have attracted millions of readers. In her works, Jane Austen has created various different female characters with different personalities and experiences. From their stories, we can see that even under the pressure of patriarchal authority at that time, many women began to pursue their true love and independent social status. The awakening of female consciousness in Jane Austen’s works can be clearly seen. Keywords: Jane Austen, female consciousness, Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice Austen has never been married in her life, although she has met several people who admire her very much. She has 1. INTRODUCTION never left her own family during her whole life. This helps us to better understand her works. British female writer Jane Austen (1775-1817) is the most George Austen has six sons and two daughters. His eldest important female writer in the 18th and 19th centuries in son is named James, and his third son is named Edward.

I establish both key terms, cultural and theoretical trends, and define the novel of manners in context as a historical genre and a contemporary one. I further explore the novel of manners as a commentary on social and moral problems, particularly in tensions between social morality and individual morality that emerge when manners break down, a concept originally highlighted by Henry James. I interrogate the interplay between nostalgia, manners, and national identity, highlighting the recreation of moribund social and moral values as a means of exerting authority over the family unit and generating profit out of national heritage.

As Fraser’s Magazine put it in an 1850 issue, “Whoever has anything to say, or thinks he has…puts it forthwith into the shape of a novel.” The novelistic genre of the era is characterised by popularity, abundance, variety, and artistic growth. Novels are distinguished by comprehensiveness. Most works offer a total, panoramic picture of society. They focus on the interrelation of Man and Society; to trace the unfolding of interrelated destinies on public and private levels. A popular theme is social mobility, the rise (or fall) from one social class to another. Widely read novels of education (Bildungsromans) are fuelled by the promise of progress. They deal with the moral, psychological maturation and often financial development of their protagonist, the self-made man.

  • A Study of Fanny Burney's Cecilia
    A Study of Fanny Burney’a Geoilia Submitted as Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts 7 7?. i Nell Joan Ranson The Rice Institute February, 1946 3 1272 00317 7100 A Study of Fanny Burney's Cecilia I Although Fanny Burney is remembered today, when remembered at all> as the author of Evelina, her own age preferred her second hovel, Cecilia or The Memoirs of an Heiress. Its success was immediate, and too universal and prolonged to owe more than its first days to the popularity of Evelina. Dr. Johnson and Burke applauded it; Gibbon professed to have read the whole five volumes in a day,*1, and its appeal to milliners and to their customers in high 2 life was equally strong. Jane Austen called it a "work in which the greatest powers of the mind are displayed, in which the most thorough knowledge of human nature, the happiest delineation of its varieties, the liveliest effusions of wit and humor, are conveyed to the world in 3 the best chosen language." Her description of a young lady ashamed of being caught x^ith it (or Camilla or Belinda) and condemned as a frivolous novel reader does'not sound as if it had become an old fashioned piece reserved for the discriminating. Macaulay, writing in 1843, after her death, declared that "she lived to be a classic" and that her early 4 works were still widely read. Cecilia is almost wholly neglected now, perhaps because of the ponderous scenes which were considered its most touching beauties in 1782.

This, of course, does no justice whatsoever to the genre’s great practitioners, chief among them Jane Austen, George Eliot, Anthony Trollope, and Henry James, all of whom sidestep convention with harrowing psychological acuity. However, glibness tends to creep in when ascribing genre to a work of fiction, as label-making itself can tend toward oversimplification.

This thesis proposes to go some way toward filling this gap by examining how Burney uses the word "sensibility" in her novels; to explore what it appears to connote to her; how she uses it to define her characters; and how she presents her interpretation of the world of "female difficulties"l through the conventions of the "novel of Sensibility."2 Burney's novels perhaps cannot strictly be defined as novels of sensibility: the satire and comedy in the novels and the examination of the good and bad aspects of the cult of sensibility make this description too narrow.
