Features: Emma is one of Jane Austen's most excellent, mature, and most representative works of her style. Jane Austen is one of the few renowned female writers in the world, known as a "miniature painter" and "domestic novelist" between the neoclassicism and the lyricalism of the Romantic movement. Literary critics regard her as a British writer comparable to Shakespeare in terms of immortality. In 2000, BBC conducted a "Millennium Writers' Poll," where Jane Austen ranked second only to Shakespeare, and she was the only female writer in the top ten. In 1986, she was selected by the French magazine L' for its recommended "Personal Ideal Library" list.
