Jon Spence's fascinating biography of Jane Austen paints an intimate portrait of the much-loved novelist. Spence's meticulous research has, perhaps most notably, uncovered evidence that Austen and the charming young Irishman Tom Lefroy fell in love at the age of twenty and that the relationship inspired Pride and Prejudice, one of the most celebrated works of fiction ever written. Becoming Jane Austen gives the fullest account we have of the romance, which was more serious and more enduring than previously believed. Seeing this love story in the context of Jane Austen's whole life enables us to appreciate the profound effect the relationship had on her art and on subsequent choices that she made in her life.

Full of insight and with an attentive eye for detail, Spence explores Jane Austen's emotional attachments and the personal influences that shaped her as a novelist. His elegant narrative provides a point of entry into Jane Austen's world as she herself perceived and experienced it. It is a world familiar to us from her novels, but in Becoming Jane Austen, Austen herself is the heroine.

读后感

读这本书，完全颠覆了之前安妮•海瑟薇的长裙飘飘，哀婉绝艳。即便是电影中迫于现实的忍痛分手，即使是两人最后貌似波澜不惊而心底波涛汹涌的决绝，都挡不住温情一缕。 温情——当面对书中描述的如此“冷硬”的现实时，你会知道，这个词，就连想想，都是奢侈。 ...  

是通过这本书开始关注简·奥斯丁的其他著作的，比如《凯瑟琳》、《第一印象》、《沃森一家》，这本书事无巨细地介绍了简的作品、简的大小嗜好、简身边的人以及她人生中所有的起伏。如果说简的著作《傲慢与偏见》等让她成为了旷古绝无的惊世才女，那么《成为简·奥斯丁》...  

在简·奥斯丁逝世100多年后，与她同国籍的天才女作家弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫在谈到女性与小说时发表了一个著名观点“A woman must have money and a room of own if she is to write fiction”。她自己做到了，她与丈夫买下蒙克之屋，有一个属于自己的写作的房子，而反观她的前辈...  

本人看了电影，觉得情节真的非常打动人心 就如同奥斯汀本人的人生历程，我看到了她是如何真正地爱上一个人 且终生不忘... 那种感觉很奇妙~ 作者: Jon Spence 副标题: A Life isbn: 1847250467 书名: Becoming Jane Austen 页数: 312 定价: USD 17.95 出版社: Continuum 装帧: ...
