Abstract
Jane Austen, a British novelist, lived in a small town with a rich family,but never married . But she dedicated to depicting love between gentlemen and ladies which embodied her conscious of feminism. In her work, women are main characters who are the incarnations of both wisdom and virtue. So, Jane Austen was considered an advocate of feminism. In Emma , Jane made Emma an independent girl who professed that she would never marry anyone although hundreds of suitors were after her which was just like what Austen did in her real life. However, the difference lies on the fact that Emma finally got married ‘suddenly’, but Austen didn’t. Why? Here the ‘suddenly’ shows the obstruction that Austen met when she tried to break Emma’s concept “No marriage”. Nevertheless, she used her writing intervention to drag Emma into the marriage with Mr. Knightly. Does it mean that Jane Austen thought that only getting married can a girl transmute to a real woman? Do the other two marriages in Emma including the marriage between Jane Fairfax and Mr.Churchill and the matrimony of Hariet Smith and Mr. Martin have writing intervention either? This thesis will analyze Jane Austen’s writing interventions through these three marriages and look at her feminism concept and class conscious from this point of view.
