When Jane Austen, the daughter of a country clergyman, was born in the picturesque village of Steventon in Hampshire in December 1775, few people could have guessed the impact she would have on the world of literature. With just six completed novels, “Sense and Sensibility”, “Pride and Prejudice”, “Mansfield Park”, “Emma”, “Persuasion” and “Northanger Abbey”, Jane Austen is one of that rare collection of classic authors to have remained popular throughout the ages. Although this program touches upon Jane Austen’s literary abilities, it is in fact far more concerned with the great lady herself, and her own fascinating life at a time in England’s history when Georgian elegance was at its most graceful. Take a tour around the English landscape and see the lovely locations that inspired Jane Austen’s novels. From the beautiful Hampshire countryside of her birth, follow in Jane’s footsteps to the West Country city of Bath and discover what she really thought about the high society that frequented its fine public buildings. Visit the seaside splendor of Lyme Regis, a great holiday favorite with the Austen family and then witness the rural charm of Chawton Cottage, Jane’s own beloved home that’s now a museum dedicated to her life and works. Above all else, Jane Austen was a great countrywoman at heart, making this program an absolute must for both lovers of literature and the English countryside.

    It's terribly sad to know that she not only died young but in agony :( I have admired her work a long time and it motivates me to keep up on my own writing. We never know how much time we have left, just imagine what other work she may have potentially had in her. Cheers, Jane, you are well remembered. You would have loved Alan Rickman as Colonel Brandon.
  • I love Jane Austin's profound intelligence, compassion, sensible approach to the life she lived. She had tenderness of heart, a sensitive attention to and dislike for hypocrisy, and care for others that refused to benefit from their weakness. I love her healthy distrust of her own motives and her love of and loyalty to her family and friends. Her life and art is based on a bedrock of simple joy and love, as well as personal longings and self control. How I wish there was another author writing with as much kindness and unflinching clarity about romantic relationships and marriage today. "Briget Jones" just doesn't cut the mustard.

    Love Jane Austen novels,the more I watch her movies the more I lyke her novels.She is brilliant,never get tired of her,wish we had more novels from her. .To me she is the best.
  • She would never have called it stupid -- although, like Elizabeth Bennett, she would have owned frequently laughing at various behaviors she encountered. Her great moral guru -- Samuel Johnson -- had a lot to say about society. Oh, I would never call Jane Austen a Romantic. She understood the Romantic temperament -- personified by Marianne in Sense & Sensibility -- but Austen, to me, was best found in Marianne's elder, calmer sister Elinore. I don't know that Austen was a balance between the two, but she certainly understood both temperaments. A good novelist must draw on both.

    adore her and her novels so much
  • She is a national treasure. This summer we visited Hill Top - Beatrix Potter's house. Next summer I would like to go to visit some of Jane Austen's places. My favourites are P and P, and S and S. Then Emma. It's interesting that both the Austen and the Bronte families had 8 children and both fathers were clergymen. Virginia Wolf also had 7 siblings, although their family was a blended one. The first wife of Mr Wolf gave him one daughter, then after she died he married a widow with 3 children of her own, and then they had 4 more children together, including Virginia and Vanessa. The author of Alice in Wonderland was a clergyman too, as was the author of Thomas the Tank Engine. Very interesting. L.M.Montgomery wasn't a daughter of a minister, but she married one,

    Wonderful job, this was a really enjoyable documentary!
  • I have Jane's novel pride and prejudice in my university's syllabus (Banaras Hindu university, varanasi India) which i am going through with great convective feelings and deepest emotions and this documentary on the novelist will be most useful to comprehend my attentive approach into the plot of this treasures, and now I have ability to connect it to the incidents of writer's life....thanks for it
  • @philipdee1415
    Thank you for this Liam...very well narrated. What a writer indeed...
  • She captured the elegance of the age, a peak distinction of revealing sentiments expressed positively in life would lead to eventual happiness, if only one held onto wisdom, as patience in the good, while the breakers stormed ..life's upset as upheaval crashing away at expectations. Onset harsh instances, such times when we are affronted with ourselves moreso difficult times. Whereby unavoidable roads taken can open into passageways no easy exit available, severe turnings in tossed about situations determining who we really are in what we say as do. Words inset actions prove actual committments to dignity of self. Her characters who stayed to the path of significance given overall endured and were successful in achieving the heights...distance gone in accomplished upheld honor as integrity of standards set, in kept no matter the surface tumult. Those who succumbed beneath these incidences, contriving ends justified the means, were undone foremost by their own unjust doings, compromising others as equally themselves sold short. I admire most highly Jane Austen's depth of perception into human character... her books very much like reality itself whereby principles are more than rules but keys to unlocking future contentments... seers spectacle 'decency' perceived into future fulfillments of dreams coming true, should we each endeavor honestly.. believing that true love exist and utmost worthy our pursuit.
