Jane Austen

I am writing a research paper on Jane Austen and similarities she shares with her character in Pride and Prejudice. Anyone know of some good biographies on Jane or any other avenues that might be worthwhile in pursuing?

Thanks!

One avenue that might be worth pursuing concerning Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen would be the to take a look at the information that is on the following links. There seems to be quite a lot of information available when people do a search for Pride and Prejudice Jane Austin on a Google search.

It is basically a series of stories that are like, the pride and prejudice movie, kind of. There are also several other movie versions of it you may find at a library, not major motion pictures or anything, but they may be helpful!

Comments on this post
Clough agrees: Thank you for sharing that!!

Thank you so much everyone! Yeah, I've seen the BBC version (the one on PBS) Pride and Prejudice (and by the way, Colin Firth is in it, it's pretty good ) I will definitely try those websites and review the movie. Thanks once again!
