With a realism that bites and blistering social commentaries, Jane Austen earns her right to be one of the most beloved writers in English literature. However, why does Jane Austen deserve our praise so much?
Little is known about the personal life of Jane Austen. One biographer is quoted as saying that any information about the life of the writer is “famously scarce.” Most of the remaining letters she had were destroyed; hence it is difficult to ascertain how she was as a person, with her family and how this has translated to her novels.
Austen creates novels that are filled with characters that exemplify human behavior at its core. They exhibit a sense of humor and are accurate reflections of what people would do in certain situations. Her characters often do not possess grandeur or elegance, but they are certainly polished and precise in a way that grabs the reader’s attention. She portrays life in an accuracy sometimes missing from most of the literary works written today.
Many people praised Pride and Prejudice (1813) when they read it or saw movie adaptations; others could not put down Emma (1815) without finishing the last page. Sense and Sensibility (1811) became even more renowned because of the film adaptation.
Ang Lee, the Director for Sense and Sensibility, sums up the reason why Austen is so well-loved, he says, “”Austen tells us how much we have to suffer in order to find real love and truth as well as the pain of growing up. These conflicts in one way or another determine our lives. This is a universal issue.”
