I guess a lot of readers who claim to like Jane Austen are girls, and girls who haven't read much of her books (at most Pride and Prejudice).
Many people who swore themselves to be fans of Austin, if they really let her read the original book, it is estimated that they will "betray"-because the original book is boring and full of religious and moral preaching.
In a prosperous world, people have become very hypocritical.
People who envy Liang Luoshi and Xu Ziqi, if they happen to have a little literary temperament, or think they have literary temperament and are reluctant to admit kitsch, they will cover up their envy for material things and become Austin fans. Because in Austen's novel, their wishes come true: handsome gentleman, elegant, noble, rich (this is a must, the rest can be slightly discounted).
So women who love money get a good cover: what I love is not money, but character!
In fact, Austin is a persuader. She has never married but is quite talented. In every novel, she persuades young women with an almost moralist tone: You can have no beauty, poverty, no Nobel decent, as long as you Piety, kind, wise and talented, can definitely wait until that gentleman.
Ridiculous theory!
In Jane's novels, a man falls in love with a woman entirely because of her talent and character, and the empty beauty cannot impress men at all.
Do you believe it? Hasn't Jane herself been living her whole life alone? So her only solace was writing novels.
I'm not against talented women, I just want to say that on the scale of love, only talented women are not enough, because love comes from passion rather than rationality. Talented women are more likely to be virgins than stupid ones - Jane Austen, for example.
