Summary/Abstract: In Austen’s novels there is a close relation between fiction and reality, a relation built with the help of words and the readers’ awareness during the process of interpreting the fictional discourse. The language has an important role in the construction of the fictional world, but the audience play important roles and the study of characters in the novels may provide understanding of the subjectivity outside the novel world.
