Beschreibung
There is no doubt that the heroine of the novel Pride and Prejudice, Lizzy, is none other than Jane Austen herself (1775–1817). Although she lived such a typically conflict-free life (she never married and reportedly rejected the only marriage proposal she received within an hour), there is no fateful bitterness reflected in her work. It seems that she rather enjoyed her position as a daughter without a dowry, and thus a girl without special chances for a better marriage – much like a person watching an entertaining comedy in the theater. By adding an ironic subtext, she advanced the novel form several generations ahead of the spheres of naive realism. More than a century and a half is the time that has absorbed hundreds of literary works, which were prophesied to achieve immortality at their inception; and these were works with far more striking and exciting themes than Pride and Prejudice. The subtle charm of Jane Austen has its loyal circle of readers, and each new generation discovers the author's legacy in its own way, in new shades and with a new shine.
