She undergoes various perils in so doing and in her own love life, and discovers, in the end, her own true love.

Jane Austen was born in Hampshire, England, in 1775 to a family on the lower fringes of the English gentry. Her father George was the rector of the Anglican parish at their village of Steventon from 1765 until 1801. She had six brothers, and an older sister—like her mother named Cassandra—with whom she was very close. Jane and Cassandra were sent to Oxford to be educated by Mrs. Ann Cawley, moving together to Southampton later in the year, but the girls returned home in the autumn after they had caught typhus and Jane nearly died. Jane was then home educated, but also went to boarding school in Reading in 1785. She wrote stories for her family's amusement, and longer drafts—some using the quiet of her father's rectory—of what would later become her famous novels. These include Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814), Emma (1815) and, published posthumously, Northanger Abbey (1818) and Persuasion (1818). Having relocated with her family to Bath after her father's retirement, when he died in 1805, her brother Edward offered their mother and the two sisters a settled life in a cottage on his estate in Chawton. She lived there for the last eight years of her life, and died (likely of Addison's disease or Hodgkin's lymphoma) in 1817.
