Of Jane Austen's life there is little to tell, and that little has been told more than once by writers whose relationship to her made them competent to do so. It is impossible to make even microscopic additions to the sum-total of the facts already known of that simple biography, and if by chance a few more original letters were discovered they could hardly alter the case, for in truth of her it may be said, "Story there is none to tell, sir." To the very pertinent question which naturally follows, reply may thus be given. Jane Austen stands absolutely alone, unapproached, in a quality in which women are usually supposed to be deficient, a humorous and brilliant insight into the foibles of human nature, and a strong sense of the ludicrous.

Of Jane Austen's life there is little to tell, and that little has been told more than once by writers whose relationship to her made them competent to do so. It is impossible to make even microscopic additions to the sum-total of the facts already known of that simple biography, and if by chance a few more original letters were discovered they could hardly alter the case, for in truth of her it may be said, "Story there is none to tell, sir." To the very pertinent question which naturally follows, reply may thus be given. Jane Austen stands absolutely alone, unapproached, in a quality in which women are usually supposed to be deficient, a humorous and brilliant insight into the foibles of human nature, and a strong sense of the ludicrous. As a writer in The Times (November 25, 1904) neatly puts it, "Of its kind the comedy of Jane Austen is incomparable. It is utterly merciless. Prancing victims of their illusions, her men and women are utterly bare to our understanding, and their gyrations are irresistibly comic." Therefore as a personality, as a central figure, too much cannot be written about her, and however much is said or written the mystery of her genius will still always baffle conjecture, always lure men on to fresh attempts to analyse and understand her.

Inspiring books and movies almost two hundred years after her death, Jane Austen is herself a fascinating character. In Jane Austen and Her Times 1775-1817, we meet the woman who sardonically captured Victorian womanhood in such novels as Sense and Sensibility (1811) and Pride and Prejudice (1813). Jane Austen was born on December 16, 1775. The seventh of eight children, Jane came from a close-knit family. Her father, George Austen, was rector of Steventon, a small town in Hampshire, England. Educated by a relative first in Oxford and then in Southampton, she eventually attended the Reading Ladies boarding school, which made her more educated than most girls during her time. By 1801, Austen and her family had moved to the posh city of Bath that became the setting for some of her novels. There, she received a marriage proposal, but in the end she never married. Instead, she moved onto her brother's estate in Chawton. She wrote novels there until ill health forced her to move to Winchster to be closer to a doctor. She died on July 18, 1817. Beyond the usual details of her life, Jane Austen and Her Times, 1775-1817 expounds upon the clergy, contemporary writers, and the navy. It also features chapters like "Society and Love-Making" and "Dress and Fashion," which are sure to delight the reader. The book, written in 1905, includes twenty-one illustrations, as well as tables and graphs.

Excerpt from Jane Austen and Her Times In art there had never before been seen in England such a trio of masters as Reynolds, Gainsborough, and Romney. Isolated portrait painters of brilliant genius, though not always native born, there had been in England, - Holbein, Vandyke, Lely, Kneller, and Hogarth are all in the first rank, - but that three such men as the trio above should flourish con temporaneously was little short of miraculous.
