Morality is a central element in Jane Austen’s novel. Sen and Sensibility,as the first of Austen’s novels to enter the light of public day, derves more attention and energy in order to understand Austen, though not as a simple question of the moral rules that ought to guide people’s lives.

1.1 Introduction to Jane Austen
In the 19th century, there appeared veral distinguished English novelists that are headed by Dickens and Thackeray who dominated a literature trend named Critical Realism. But women novelists had stepped on the stage of literature as early as the cond half of the 18th century. Then some brilliant female novel writers achieved and contributed to the development of the English novel, one remarkable member of whom is Jane Austen. Jane Austen was born on December 16, 1775, in Steventon rectory in Hampshire, England, where she spent her years of childhood and youth. After two unsuccessful attempts to find a good boarding school for the Austen daughters, they returned home and educated themlves from the resources of their father’s extensive library, and certainly with his guidance. At the age of about twelve, Jane began to write down some of the stories she had probably told Cassandra in the bedroom they shared. She copied the stories into three manuscript books which she labeled “V olume the First”, “V olume the Second” and “V olume the Third”. At fifteen, her writing is already marked by her characteristic neat stylishness and crisp irony. In 1795-6, Jane began writing “First Impression”, the first draft of Pride and Prejudice. She read it aloud to her family and it impresd her father so much that he wrote to a London publisher, offering to nd the manuscript. However, the offer was refud. In 1801 Jane moved with her parents and h
er sister to Bath, where they remained until after the death of her father in 1805. With her mother, Cassandra and Martha Lloyd, her lifelong friend, she then lived on Southampton from 1806 to 1809. In July 1809 all four women moved to Chawton, in Hampshire, where Jane remained until May 1817, when she went to Winchester becau of ill health. She died there, unmarried on July 18, 1817, and was buried in Winchester Cathedral. Four of her novels, Sen and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Masfield Park and Emma were published while she was living at Chawton. Her two other novel, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, were brought out in December 1817, a few months after her death.fineday
what a girl wants
In her short lifetime of 41 years, she never went out of the circle of her life. “Of events her life was singularly barren: few changes and no great crisis even broke the smooth current of its cour” (J. E. Austen-Leigh, 1991: 1). Becau of her limited personal experiences, Austen’s field of version often focud on the ordinary life and
the association of the so-called respectable middle-class families in villages to which she was familiar. Her work never touched upon the themes of x, violence, death, radical behavior, dramatic conflicts and tragedies about which the writers in the past took delight in talking; what she concerned was everyday comics in village families, especially the comic experience of provincial girls hunting fo
r husbands. The Bennet daughters in Pride and Prejudice, the Dashwood sisters in Sen and Sensibility, Harriat Smith in Emma are all like that. Although living through the period of the French Revolution, this great historical change never had any influence on her works and the stories and the characters in her pen are all of lyrical and pastoral flavor. “Austen is often happy to follow the Cinderella plot, and to make a happy ending out of marrying her heroine to a man notably above her in income and social prestige” (Copeland & Mcmaster, 2002: 117).
山西英语培训Jane Austen’s very style of her works was criticized by some critics and writers. Charlotte Bronte ever demurred that she “should hardly like to live with her ladies and gentlemen in their elegant but confined hous”(Zhu Hong, 1985: 50). Mrs. Browning stated that “Austen’s characters had no souls and were lack of depth and width”. (Ibid, P5) However, tho who appreciated her praid highly for her fine art. The British female writer Virginia Woolf said in her famous A Room of One’s Own: “Of all great novelists, Jane Austen is the most difficult to catch in the act of greatness” (Ibid, P5).
Really the subject matters of Austen’s novels are limited to a narrow and small field, but just in this narrow and small field she lingered all her life. Thus she knew about it so clearly and thoroughly that she had ability and condition to create the first scale of generally-acknowledged British realistic novels in the nineteenth century. She remains fundamentally concerned with the social reality of her l
ife. In her life and in her novels, Austen takes up residence in the middle world of life, the world of small towns, rural hamlets, country hous, occupied by landed gentry and their relation, Anglican clergymen with modest livings and large families, the daughters and the cond and the third sons of noble families, relatives of military and especially naval officers. “Class difference was of cour a fact of life for Austen, and an acute obrvation of the fine distinctions between one social level and another was a necessary part of her business as a writer of realistic fiction” (Copeland & Mcmaster, 2002: 115).
All Jane Austen’s works show a recognizable standard of values. Her father was a country churchman; his family remained faithful Christian throughout their lives,
