Abstract
At the time when Jane Austen lived and worked, being a female novelist was not appreciated, therefore she never gained acknowledgment during her lifetime; nowadays, she is considered to be one of the most prominent names in English literature. She is known for her distinct social commentary, e.g. her novel Sense and Sensibility mirrors the patriarchal English society of the early nineteenth century and provides an impeccable insight into the position of women, who were at the time deprived of many economic and legal rights including a right to vote and a right to inherit property. Sense and Sensibility deals with the two confronting features of human personality, namely Sense vs. Sensibility, and indicates the importance of a proper balance between the two. Furthermore, she is notable for her wittiness and irony, which she perfectly incorporates in her works, so it is no surprise that her novels are famous worldwide and have numerous film adaptations. On the other hand, her posthumously published novel Northanger Abbey differs from the latter work in that it serves as a parody of the Gothic novel in which the female protagonist, Catherine Morland, embodies an atypical heroine in comparison to the ones usually present in Austen’s works.
