Asking the God: Jane Austen's Views on Literary Creation and Marriage

简·奥斯丁是英国文学史上的一位重要的女作家,以往学界对她从多种角度进行了研究,可谓毁誉掺半。评论界一方面批评她缺乏对历史的观察与扫视,从而使文学题材局限于英国乡村的几户人家;一方面却被她作品中准确而精到的人性表达所吸引,指出她的文学作品中透露出一股稳妥从容的古典力量。她一生中创作了6部小说,她作品中关于爱情与金钱、理智与爱情的讨论在今天仍然极具价值,不断地吸引着后世的读者对其进行重读。她的人生经历对她的写作观、婚姻观产生了深刻的影响,而她自己则在某种意义上改写与影响了英国文学的历史。研究以一种熔炉的方式,结合其人生经历与文学作品来呈现她的婚姻观。
