Abstract
In Jane Austen's work, mobility is very much a gendered activity, with access to mobility and the freedom to move being seen as privileges primarily reserved for men. Although Austen worried about the impact that new forms of mobility were having upon British society, she increasingly recognized mobility as something that women want and need. It is at the heart of her writing, as Austen came to question the ways in which traditional landed conceptions of property and political power kept women in place, affecting their mental and bodily well-being as well as what they could see and know.
