Jane Austen (1775 - 1817)


Jane Austen was an English novelist whose books, set amongst the English middle and upper classes, are notable for their wit, social observation and insights into the lives of early 19th century women.

Jane Austen was born on 16 December 1775 in the village of Steventon in Hampshire. She was one of eight children of a clergyman and grew up in a close-knit family. She began to write as a teenager. In 1801 the family moved to Bath. After the death of Jane's father in 1805 Jane, her sister Cassandra and their mother moved several times eventually settling in Chawton, near Steventon.

Jane's brother Henry helped her negotiate with a publisher and her first novel, 'Sense and Sensibility', appeared in 1811. Her next novel 'Pride and Prejudice', which she described as her "own darling child" received highly favourable reviews. 'Mansfield Park' was published in 1814, then 'Emma' in 1816. 'Emma' was dedicated to the Prince Regent, an admirer of her work. All of Jane Austen's novels were published anonymously.

In 1816, Jane began to suffer from ill-health, probably due to Addison's disease. She travelled to Winchester to receive treatment, and died there on 18 July 1817. Two more novels, 'Persuasion' and 'Northanger Abbey' were published posthumously and a final novel was left incomplete.

Module #3 - ''Our brains on media''


Watching this video you can hear rythmic music and see cloths of different colors. So you use limbic brain. At the begining of the video you see the title, using your neocortex brain. Actually, the girl you see in the video is Arpen(Peni), who participates in Dotcom programme. This video was made during '' The One Minute Junior'' workshop by me. We started shooting at 11 p.m. and finished at 4 a.m.. The whole process was very very funny. Everytime I touched the button to turn on the camera, we burst out laughting and couldn't continue shooting. We could even leave the video without editing, because everything was very interesting. But we were limited in time...only one minute!
