Abstract
Jane Austen (1775-1871) was an outstanding female writer in the history of English literature, who created the first group of universally acknowledged English realistic novels in the late 18th and 19th centuries. Her works were a microcosm of the British society of her age, and truly revealed the British social realities. There is no doubt that Jane Austen was a dazzling pearl in the literary arena, and she has the equal status with Shakespeare.
The society a novelist lived in must mirror his or her mind or imagination. When the novelist painted a picture of the society in his or her novel, he or she saw it just as he or she sees a mirror, though the mirror we can see clearly how the society decided his or her mind and the environment . In order to appreciate Jane Austen’s works well, it is necessary that the social background of her age will be discussed in the following.
This paper is divided into four parts. The first section will represent how Social Background of the late eighteenth and the early nineteenth centuries affect Jane Austen’s works. In Jane Austen’s time, the English social background of Austen’s day, such events as Industrial Revolution, French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars had a great impact on English society and life. The second section will focus on the influences of Class Evolvement on Jane Austen’s writing. In this section, we will pay attention to the changes of the upper class and the middle one. In the third part, it is about how changes of women’s social status impacts on Austen’s works. In the last section, I will introduce Jane Austen’s life to probe the relationship between her life and writing.
