I. Introduction
From late eighteenth Century to early nineteenth Century, vulgar and boring Sentimental Novel and Gothic Novel occupied British literature, and Austin’s novel is unconventional. It had been demonstrated the British countryside middle-class daily life and pastoral scenery which were affected by the capitalist industrial revolution. Her works often ivories people’s stupid, selfish and snobbish and blind confidence as ridiculous weakness through the comedy scene. We can see the whole society from a small window, there is important significance in the history of the development of British fiction. She is known as the “being on an equal status with Shakespeare”, her status in English literature becomes more and more important with time’s change, as some critics think that the technique is the most closely to Shakespeare, it’s no doubt to Jane Austin, and she is called the pride of Britain.
Jane Austin has written six novels in her life, Sense and Sensibility (1811) are Jane Austin’s first novel, and writing skills have proficient. Pride and Prejudice (1813) are the representative work of Jane Austin. Mansfield Park (1814) and other novels regard the love and marriage of the young men and women as the theme. Northanger Abbey (1818) the story becomes more and more marketing around the hero and heroine’s love development. Persuasion (1818) describes a tortuous love story. Persuasion is the last complete novel of the author and there are deeper feelings and thoughts than previous works. It is as the best works of Austen. Persuasion assures personal character evolution from cautious to romantic, undoubtedly it reflects the change of the author’s creative ideas, which is also a challenge to the traditional concept. The novel has many details, at the first glance we feel that it is ordinary, but when we appreciate it carefully, we will feel that it is meaningful. 简•奥斯汀《劝导》中女性主义解读:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_39682.html
