Abstract
As a famous female novelist in the English literature in the 19th century, Jane Austen shows her feminist viewpoints a lot in all her novels. Austen’s last novel, Persuasion, portrays different woman characters, which break through the images of women in her former works. The thesis gives a detailed analysis of the four woman characters: Anne Elliot, Lady Russel, Mrs. Smiths and Mrs. Croft, aiming at probing into the new characteristics of the woman images in Persuasion.
Key words: Jane Austen; Persuasion; woman images
