Title of paper:
The attraction of Jane Austen.
 

Author or topic:
Jane Austen.
 

Abstract or summary of the research in not more than 100 to max. 150 words:
I am intrigued as to what would enable Jane Austen to become a successful writer in the 19th century.

She began to write when she was young.  She was not living in a literary environment.  She died young so all her books were written in a short period of time.

To attain success as a writer is difficult even now when women have gained a little more equality.  What  is in her novels that caught the attention of the public at the time?  What is it that is still capable of attracting the attention of the public almost 200 years later?
