Abstract

This paper examines how Jane Austen absorbed and interacted with the revolutionary concepts of her era and entered the ideological, transplanted empowerment of women through themes that prompted English society to reevaluate the role and position of women in society in her Sense and Sensibility. This novel examines the status of women in nineteenth-century England, their significance in society, and their participation in it. Everything that is shown in the novel, including family life and the social structure, is representative of modern-day England. In the work, Austen depicts women's interactions through the metaphor of sensibility. Her primary goal is to portray the difficulties faced by women as well as the issues of love, marriage, and money. Sensitivity is a contemporary idea that is common in nature, and the feminine body is at the core of the story. Sensibility implies all female movements, including sighs and worries, and is defined as reasonable thought. Sensitivity frequently causes characters to suffer, and it causes the heroine to become ill. Fanny and Anne are extremely sensitive characters in the novel. Marianne becomes a strong female character because of her eventual learning to see, accept, and prosper in the flawed world. Elinor, on the other hand, values honour above all else and establishes herself as logical and in control throughout the novel by consistently supporting and directing her family despite her emotional condition.
