Jane Austen

Autor

Steventon, 1775-Winchester, 1817. Novelista británica. Séptima hija de una familia de ocho hermanos, su padre se encargó personalmente de su educación. En 1801, los Austen se trasladaron a Bath y luego a Chawton, un pueblo de Hampshire, donde la escritora redactó la mayoría de sus novelas. Apacible, sereno y equilibrado es su modo de escribir, y describe con sutil ironía el ambiente de la clase alta rural del sur de Inglaterra. El interés de sus obras reside en los diferentes matices psicológicos de sus personajes, y en la descripción, con una buena dosis de crítica, del ambiente social en que sitúa a sus protagonistas, que no es otro que el suyo propio, el de la burguesía acomodada.
