It's lovely and we...I love your assessment of Jane. It's lovely and well considered. <BR/><BR/>I don't have any lofty reasons, I simply resonate to her 'voice'. I find her dialogue witty and refreshing, her observations keen and certain heroines (Anne Eliott for instance) are so well defined that you cannot help but relate entirely to them and in part to the author. There's a reason why she's still going strong ~200 years later.<BR/><BR/>I had forgotten about my 'tyranical autocracy'... LOL. I've had situations in my past where some people troll on my blog, so I have resolved to delete them. I do not delete people with complete thoughts and whose posts have some modicum of coherence. <BR/><BR/>As for family bonds... I find bonds with people who aren't 'blood'. People who enrich my life, and people who are worthy. If that is selfish, then I am proud to say I am selfish. I do not believe I should be obligated to accept anything someone says or does because they are my family. If they are hurtful, or motivated by selfish purposes, snide, passive aggressive or plain obnoxious, then I have a right to separate myself from it. However that comes off in regards to me, I'm ready to accept that. I am happy to take responsibility for my actions. And "I am only resolved to act in that manner, which will, in my own opinion, constitute my happiness".<BR/><BR/>;)Hungarican Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13868314128333948366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2916652166792424600.post-11763329829599867952008-11-21T17:23:00.000-08:002008-11-21T17:23:00.000-08:00Well, you didn’t send me right up into oblivion of...Well, you didn’t send me right up into oblivion of tyrannical autocracy, I guess. Thanks for that already. Jane Austen makes me giggle. That’s why I adore her. No, that’s not it. Like you said, there are many things we appreciate her for. What is the foremost element for me to say that she is my personal champion as yet in English literature, even though I don’t regard her as a giant, is her distinct voice, yes, you may say her intelligence, her innate literary scope in depth, and masculine drive in style and what not. <BR/><BR/>It may sound silly but as far as I know her, there is the most unforgettable hue in her voice that I hardly can miss even if I encounter one in the cloud of thousand other author’s scripts. And as weird as it seems and somewhat nutty, I guess, yet I haven’t yet finished a book of hers. You can laugh if you want. I only read a few pages each book of hers. And still I resist reading through them all for another lame, unorthodox reason that I want to savor the moment later, much later. And then how do I know her? Am I entitled to claiming to know about Jane Austen? Definitely. How reckless I on that claim? To the point of trying to pinpoint the starting page from which one of modern authoress patched up to create a novel based on her unfinished work. It’s fun anyway. <BR/><BR/>I usually compare her with F Scott Fitzgerald. She is an ultimate natural beauty, rather unpolished and unadorned, of landscape while Fitzgerald artificial glamour built in skyscrapers. As I pick Jane Austen among the sea of great many literary celebrities, I tend to inquire of what made those her admirers to be so and devoted to Jane Austen and what other elements they love the most. And I hope it doesn’t sound unseemly. <BR/><BR/>Though it’s considered supreme virtue in humanity, I mean family bond, I think that’s another loophole for us all that makes us in the end again selfish, I mean destructively selfish, which we’re supposed to overcome. If our purpose can be set for the sake of goodness itself rather than who’s related to who, so that we can stand up for what is right rather than who is closer to me, then I hope and believe that our selfishness is well directed and more sufferable. By the way I don’t think it’s about blood.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2916652166792424600.post-57126272665626807632008-11-21T08:28:00.000-08:002008-11-21T08:28:00.000-08:00Hey Anon,I'm not quite sure what to make of your c...Hey Anon,<BR/><BR/>I'm not quite sure what to make of your comment. Intimidated by my head-warning? What's intimidating. Powder-puff, remember? <BR/><BR/>Does one need a single reason as to why one loves Jane Austen? I think not. She is universally loved, for the way her characters prove that people are the same no matter what time period you're in, for their cleverness, their failings... everything. She's brilliant and always will be. <BR/><BR/>As for the fallout... in plain terms, 'stuff' happens. What can you do, that's life? ::shrug:: I can only call it as I see it. I can only be honest. I *can* raise hell if it needs to be raised, and I can live my life as best I can taking care of the people who matter to me.Hungarican Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13868314128333948366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2916652166792424600.post-29906000388957568742008-11-21T07:12:00.000-08:002008-11-21T07:12:00.000-08:00I agree with Stephanie R!

I wonder what of Jane Austen made you so devoted to her. Well, your thunderous handling of people in close relationship made me laugh. I think we all blind ourselves from knowing how selfish we have become in many ways and never wanted to be discovered so until someone who fell off the cliff, screaming and yelling. Sad business. In the name of family, we all are likely guilty, knowingly and unknowingly, of abuse and misuse of each other, I guess.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2916652166792424600.post-25580582930433133882008-11-20T22:38:00.000-08:002008-11-20T22:38:00.000-08:00Good for you!
