Описание : Jane Austen and her novels. Themes : love, marriage and social status: At the time when the novel was written, women were almost totally dependent on men financially, and therefore it was very important for a woman to find a husband. Jane Austen herself never got married and would have faced considerable financial hardship if, after her father's death, she, her mother and her sister had not been supported by her brothers.
Mary Shelley and her works: Mary Shelley wrote several works - Valperga (1823), a romance set in fourteenth-centur y Italy and The Last Man (1826), a vision of t he end of human civilisation, set in the year 2100 - but she is best remembered as the author of Frankenstein, (1818).
