Stick to your inner mirage

Jane Austen has always been one of my all-time favorite writers, her writing is wit, aura, and a little woman's cunning. The love she wrote was also my template for a time. The calm, restrained, rich but not arrogant male protagonist is fascinating. As I get older, I gradually understand that these are unattainable, the only way to get Mr, Darcy is to make him up. Knowing that it is unattainable but still holding good wishes is undoubtedly a wise performance. In reality, busy with Women who raise their families and nurture their children are full of dirt and can't help but yearn for "if...then..." So they need someone to give them faith. Jane's novel satisfies this. She creates infinite possibilities for those who are extremely depressed. Women take a nap. In Jane's novels, it is not difficult to see that she admires intelligent and rational girls, and disdains shallow and ignorant people, especially in "Persuasion", which is somewhat self-appreciating. In addition, the material is relatively simple, and her social experience and experience make it impossible for her to write novels as in-depth as many male writers. Even so, the castle in the sky she built with these two inches of ivory can still give me strength and warmth.
From the perspective of the movie, after watching "Becoming Jane Austen" and then watching "Austen's Regret", I can better understand the difference in perspectives between the United Kingdom and the United States, and the difference in the depth of exploration between the two. "Cheng" focuses more on speculation about Austin's love past. After reading it, it makes people regret, but the regret is not profound. It is a romance novel-style ups and downs, beautiful and unreal. "Regret" can better reflect the introvertedness of the British, and it is more delicate in the handling of emotions. It reveals the helplessness of the real world. Under the social background at that time, Jane, who chose to be single and rejected a suitor from a wealthy family for love, faced an embarrassing situation. The nearly 40-year-old female writer, full of talent and too late to tell, is tortured by endless poverty and fatigue, and the difference between reality and ideal is more than a world away. Will she regret it? Or as she said: Because of you, i choose freedom. I hope it is the latter.

Miss Austen Regrets quotes

  • Fanny Austen-Knight: You like Mr. Haden!

    Jane Austen: He has very good teeth.

  • Mme. Bigeon: [late at night, both in nightgowns; strong French accent] My friend in Paris has read a wonderful new book called 'Raison and Sensibilite'

    Jane Austen: Sense and Sensibility?

    Mme. Bigeon: My friend says, whoever the woman is who wrote this book, she knows more about love than anyone else in the world

    Jane Austen: Like someone who can't cook writing a recipe book

    Mme. Bigeon: Passion is for the young. It fades so quickly.

    Jane Austen: [wistfully] Not in our dreams

    Mme. Bigeon: Comfort remains, friendship remains, if you are lucky as I was.

    Jane Austen: Happiness in marriage remains a matter of chance

    Mme. Bigeon: But the fuss we make about who to choose. And love still dies and money still vanishes. And, spinster, lover, wife, every woman has regrets. So we read about your heroines and feel young again. And in love. And full of hope. As if we can make that choice again.

    Jane Austen: And do it right this time

    Mme. Bigeon: This is the gift which God has given you.

    [Jane Austen looks up sharply]

    Mme. Bigeon: It is enough, I think.
