Jane Austen was born in Steventon, England on December 16, 1775, she was the seventh of eight children, with six brothers and one sister. Her parents, George Austen and Cassandra Leigh, were married in 1764. She published four novels during her lifetime. Her novels defined the era’s novel of manners, but they also became timeless classics that remained critical and popular.

Both Jane and her sister Cassandra were mostly educated at home, though they spent a short period of time at Abbey School.

Jane's relationship with her sister was perhaps the strongest connection which existed in her life. Her numerous letters to and from Cassandra provide the basis for much of the knowledge Austen scholars have gleaned about Jane. Jane Austen died on July 18, 1817, at age 42.
