"Jane Austen and Her Times" by G. E. Mitton is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book examines the life and works of Jane Austen, alongside the social, cultural, and historical contexts in which she lived. It seeks to present not only Austen's literary contributions but also the environment of 18th-century England that shaped her experiences and writings, offering insight into the contemporary society she depicted in her novels. The opening of the book introduces the challenges of detailing Jane Austen's life due to the limited biographical information available. It emphasizes Austen’s unique insight into human nature, highlighted by her sharp humor and social observations. Mitton aims to provide a broader understanding of Jane Austen by exploring the societal norms, culture, and personal connections that influenced her work, revealing the contrast between her seemingly simple life and the significant historical events occurring around her, such as the French Revolution. Through this blend of biography and social history, the text illuminates Austen's status as both a remarkable individual and a product of her era. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
