Features: Journey through time and space with masters to experience a literary life. "A Hundred Literary Journeys" is originally from the UK, written by internationally renowned writers and scholars such as Anthony Burgess, and is highly appreciated by literary enthusiasts around the world. Renowned foreign literature experts in Beijing, Shanghai, and Taiwan have contributed special introductions and prefaces. Jane Austen was born into the middle-to-upper class of southern England in the 18th century. In terms of morality and religion, her attitude tended to be traditional and conservative; politically, she supported the Tories—she consistently created such an environmental background in her novels. In fact, her upbringing provided her talent with excellent development conditions: precise observation of characters, witty and strong intuition, high sensitivity to realistic dialogue, and cautious judgment. We can clearly see these talents in her early satirical novels, "Northanger Abbey" and "Sense and Sensibility." In her great works of mature writing, such as "Pride and Prejudice," "Mansfield Park," "Emma," and "Persuasion," she fully brought these talents to fruition. This biography includes numerous illustrations and is a meticulously crafted masterpiece by the Austen-loving novelist and critic Margaret, who, after long-term research into the works, letters, and historical background of this British female writer in the 18th century, has written this work.
