Lee, Hyeyoung. ¡°Profession, work, labour in Jane Austen¡¯s novels: Mansfield Park and Persuasion.¡± Studies in English Language & Literature 47.1 (2021): 137-154. The rise of the professional bourgeois classes was one of the most important aspects of Jane Austen¡¯s time. In Austen¡¯s later novels, Mansfield Park and Persuasion, the writer's awareness of the spirit of the age is evident in her recognition of the importance of profession, work, and labour. Throughout Mansfield Park, the hero¡¯s sense of vocation and responsibility is emphasized. Edmund is aware of the fact that strong morality is needed for his profession as the leader of rural community. In Persuasion, Austen¡¯s sense of the importance of work and profession deepens. Boredom and emptiness are major emotional components in the life of the leisure class characters like Sir. Walter and Elizabeth. Their pleasure-seeking idle lifestyle is sarcastically criticized. The characters in the Musgrove household are more adaptable to the changing society, but they are philistines in their lack of meaningful employment. In contrast to the boredom, emptiness, and immorality of the gentry characters, the professional naval characters like Mr. and Mrs. Croft, Captain Harville embody a useful, healthy, and happy lifestyle. Austen advocates positive traits of professionalism as the indispensible elements of life. And through the introduction of a new character type, domestic man, the meaning of profession and labour strengthens. (Dongshin University)
