Abstract:Jane Austen is a famous British novelist in the late 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century. She creates her stories with unique female perspective and meticulous observation. The themes of most of her novels are about the love and marriage between young men and women. Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice and Persuasion are the works created by Austen in her different life stages. They represent Austen’s attitudes toward marriage. Sense and Sensibility shows that women should use sense to control their sensibility to get a happy marriage. Pride and Prejudice shows that a perfect marriage must be based on true love and guaranteed by wealth. Persuasion shows that love is the most important thing in the marriage.
