초록
This study aims to examine the horse-drawn carriages in Jane Austen's novels so that it helps to broaden readers' horizon of understanding Austen's works and her society. Austen lived in the late 18th and the early 19th-century English society where mobility was limited. Therefore, carriages are important elements in her novels as well as in her society. However, if we interpret the carriages as just a means of moving, we are likely to miss some hidden messages Austen wants us to recognize. Since Austen adds some more social meanings to the carriages, we may be liable to fail to understand her novels in some respects. When we want to understand her novels and her society, it is necessary to understand the meanings of the carriages especially if we are not familiar with carriage culture. Austen is well known in that she details her characters' financial situations. Austen is employing the carriages as an indirect way of showing the characters' wealth, their social status, and even their personalities. However, in her later novels, Austen tries to change the meanings of the carriages from the symbol of social status and wealth to a just way of transportation so that she urges the change of people's way of thinking and their behavior.
