Assignment

The topic I select is Reading selection of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. Her works are very popular today, with Austen reading clubs and all types of new books and events based on her ideas. In 2017, England printed new 10 pound bank notes with her image on them.

For the reading selection and topic you choose, your paper should cover the following:

Briefly introduce the writer and the situation that this reading is about. Identify the genre or nature of the reading. (Who is the author? Why did he or she write this piece?)

Using specific examples or lines within the reading, suggest the author's key views and key aims for the reading audience. (Give a 1-2 paragraph summary of ideas.)

Evaluate the author's strategy and what you see as the work's likely effectiveness (or lack of effectiveness) for the target audience. If there is any known historical result, discuss that. (Look at the writing style and discuss who would read this.)

Evaluate how the reading impacted you. Identify any analogous situations today, and also key lessons you get from the reading that could be relevant to one's professional and personal life. (How did you like this??How do the ideas relate to situations today?)
