Jane Austen´s novels at first glance, tell a story of romance set primarily within the landowning society amidst country estates and their cultivation of tea parties, social outings and extravagant balls ; ladies wearing flowing gowns through precisely decorated rooms and men deliberating over their game of whist. The storybook romance usually unfolds in these familiar settings and inevitably involves the conflict of two lovers separated by differences in social class and the resulting influence of the diverse societies they revolve in. Although these superficial aspects of Austen ´s stories are protruding at the seams, underneath the skin of these well – clothed dramas lie serious moral issues afflicting the culture of England during Austen´s life.
