Abstract
Little is directly known of Jane Austen’s acquaintance with the developing female consciousness in the eighteenth century. That she examines the ‘drama of woman’ in her novels is a judgement based on the likelihood that she was sensitive to her social and literary environment, on the similarity between her views and those of ‘feminist’ writers of the 1790s, and, above all, on the evidence of the novels themselves.KeywordsPatriarchal SocietyWoman WriterSexual StereotypingFemale PersonalitySocial ConditioningThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
