Abstract
Jane Austen (1775-1817) is one of the major writers of the nineteenth century. She is considered as one of the greatest of British fiction writers. She has a major impact on the development of the English novel. This thesis aims at studying and analyzing the dramatic element in Jane Austen’s novels: Pride and Prejudice (1813), Emma (1816) and Sense and Sensibility (1811). The fact that Jane Austen showed dramatic power of a high order in her novels, although she was one of the most outstanding and prominent novelists in the history of English Literature, has stimulated the writer of this thesis to make a study and analysis of the dramatic element in her novels, particularly that this is a point that has not been dealt with or investigated before, though some critics have felt it and alluded to it in bits and pieces, but no thorough or detailed study has ever been made of it before.
