• Jane Austen (16 December 1775 – 18 July
1817) was an English novelist whose works of
romantic fiction, set among the landed gentry,
earned her a place as one of the most widely
read writers in English literature. Her realism and
biting social commentary have gained her
historical importance among scholars and critics.


• Emma, by Jane Austen, is a novel about
youthful hubris and the perils of misconstrued
romance. The novel was first published in
December 1815. As in her other novels, Austen
explores the concerns and difficulties of genteel
women living in Georgian-Regency England; she
also creates a lively comedy of manners among
her characters.

Before she began the novel, Austen wrote, "I am
going to take a heroine whom no one but myself
will much like.“ In the very first sentence she
introduces the title character as "Emma
Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich."
Emma, however, is also rather spoiled,
headstrong, and self-satisfied; she greatly
overestimates her own matchmaking abilities;
she is blind to the dangers of meddling in other
people's lives, and her imagination and
perceptions often lead her astray.
