Cross-Gender Communication:A Gateway to the 21st Century
Cross-Gender Communication:A Gateway to the 21st Century

Summary/Abstract: The present paper sets itself the task of analyzing the effects globalization had on gender identities, by bridging two different worlds through the “eyes” of Jane Austen’s female characters of Sense and Sensibility, and Pride and Prejudice. Even though considered outdated by some, the two novels are still enjoyed by a number of people who regard them as mere reflections or contradictions of what is happening nowadays in all areas of social, cultural and political life. Both novels have a contemporary version as they have been parodied and turned into modern stories with sea-monsters and zombies, but still preserving something from the elegance and mannerism typical for 19th century England.
