(See Jane Austen's official website, JaneAusten.co.uk) Chawton, home to the Jane Austen Museum, also has a range of events planned and open until the end of the year.
Minumsa has released a special edition of three of Austin's six long novels published in the "World Literature Collection": Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, and Emma, which are representative works from her peak period.
This project is designed to provide today's new 'Jay Nights' with an opportunity to reconnect with Jane Austen's literary world, which she had not hoped for for two centuries, by reading 『Pride and Prejudice』, which brought her first success and fame, and 『Mansfield Park』 and 『Emma』, which she poured all her genius into during her most passionate writing period.
The special editions of Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, and Emma, released this time, feature Hugh Thomson.
(1860~1920) each included 40~80 illustrations for Jane Austen's works.
Known as 'the illustrator who captured the spirit of Jane Austen', Hugh Thomson is an outstanding artist who breathed life into classic British works by capturing the social realities of his time with his delicate and witty brushstrokes.
Beginning with the Peacock Edition of Pride and Prejudice published by George Allen in 1894, he illustrated nearly all of Jane Austen's novels, including the illustrated editions of Emma (1896) and Mansfield Park (1897) for Macmillan & Co., leaving behind classics of Austen illustration that continue to inspire later illustrators and are still beloved today.
His illustrations, which will also be restored for Minumsa's special edition of Jane Austen, will further amplify the cheerful and lovely atmosphere of Austen's novels and provide readers with a richer enjoyment.

Publisher's Review
Pride and Prejudice * Newsweek's 100 Greatest Books | BBC's Must-Reads
“This novel is so light and bright and sparkling that it almost needs shade.” ― Jane Austen
Jane Austen, who followed Shakespeare as the greatest writer of the past millennium
A classic that sharply depicts the realistic difficulties women face when facing marriage and the conditions of love.
Editor's Letter ___ Editor Park Ji-ah
“Have you ever misunderstood someone based on a first impression?”
Pride and Prejudice is Jane Austen's most beloved work worldwide, a novel so light and sparkling that even the author herself sees it as needing shade.
This work depicts the process in which Elizabeth and Darcy misunderstand each other because of their first impressions, but gradually realize the truth and come to understand each other.
The picture on the postcard that comes with the book is a humorous scene where Elizabeth, who is obsessed with prejudice, politely rejects Darcy's attention and Miss Bingley's jealousy. It is a scene with a lot of interesting foreshadowing when you think about Elizabeth later realizing she was wrong and Darcy confessing his love to Elizabeth, breaking down his stubborn standards.
So I chose to share this picture with you.
Have you ever misunderstood someone based solely on first impressions? Or perhaps you're misunderstanding someone right now? After reading this novel, filled with Austen's signature wit and loveliness, you might see the people around you differently.
You might even encounter some truly unexpected connections! I hope you, my readers, enjoy a light and sparkling summer with Jane Austen's novels.
Mansfield Park
“It’s no exaggeration to say that female self-esteem is a Jane Austen invention.” —The Guardian
The most 'controversial', 'problematic' and 'profound' novel among Jane Austen's works.
A treasure trove of satire and psychological description, with delicate and excellent writing and wit shining through.
Editor's Letter___Editor Park Hye-jin
“The Fanny within us.”
The reason I'm particularly drawn to Fanny Price, the protagonist of this novel, is because, though I hate to admit it, she's somehow similar to me.
In a word, Fanny is an 'introvert'.
Unlike the other sparkling, confident female protagonists in Austen's novels, Fanny grew up timid and serious, living with relatives, and internalized a strict code of etiquette so as not to be seen as a "big kid" out of place.
Fanny's love for her cousin Edmund is tantamount to betraying the family who cared for her, but she does her best to protect this love, which is considered 'depraved' just by holding it.
Meanwhile, it is said that Fanny Price most resembles the author Jane Austen.
In the 19th century, when unmarried women had no choice but to depend on their fathers or brothers for support, Austin receives an unexpected marriage proposal from a wealthy younger man, but refuses.
The reason, to borrow Fanny Price's voice! "I... I don't like him enough to marry him."
Austin, who chose to be completely alone rather than being pushed into a loveless marriage by circumstances.
Perhaps it's only natural that he'd be nervous about whether readers would truly love Fanny, the character he'd poured his heart into. What about you?
[Mansfield Park] Are you ready to love Fanny Price?
Emma
“I will create a heroine who will love no one but herself.” ― Jane Austen
A work born during Jane Austen's peak period
A classic romance novel depicting a bubbly bachelor's journey to true self-awareness through marriage.
Editor's Letter --- Editor Kim Min-kyung
“The cutest and hottest mischievous girl in the Jane Austen universe.”
Our protagonist, Emma, is a woman with all the makings of a superstar.
He's a friend whose opinions are sharply divided, capable of driving both 'fans' and 'antis' crazy.
Emma declares that she will never get married, and lets her imagination run wild by linking the single men and women of the village together in various ways.
But Emma, who doesn't have the talent to accurately tell who likes whom, bravely gives the wrong answer.
I can't tell you how many times I kept saying to myself, "Please stop!" while reading.
But Emma is a friend who gradually realizes her own shortcomings and tries to improve.
I take good care of those around me and always try to be honest about my feelings.
Accept the words of 'him' who pointed out your mistakes sharply and repent and reflect.
Although Jane Austen said she created a heroine that "no one would like but myself," I ended up liking and rooting for Emma.
Everyone! Please don't hate our 'love troublemaker' Emma too much.
I hope you enjoy the rainbow of colorful emotions that Emma's noisy and boisterous antics create until the very end.
