  1. This article in the times is so well done! I agree hands down with both the author of the article as well as the doctor who has been analyzing Jane's writings. Whether Jane was conscious or unaware of her ability to analyze and explain the society and culture of her time, she did so much eloquence and such sophistication that allowed her works to be used even today. I find it so fascinating that even though her writings were for a very different time, people have remained similar in ways that allow her readings to be timeless.
