Jane Austen mind maps

Jane Austen mind maps to explore

Start with Themes in Pride and Prejudice for a map that brings together ideas such as marriage, class and social expectations. Then compare it with Elizabeth Bennet, which looks at her role and relationships. Moving between a theme map and a character map gives you different ways to organise your reading.

For another novel, Emma: Structure of the Novel maps the story across a year, while Northanger Abbey includes literary features and themes. The Sense and Sensibility map covers topics including family, wealth and society.

Revise with a map

Choose a branch and explain its connection to the novel in your own words. Then cover the map and sketch the links you remember before checking them against the resource. If you want to test yourself differently, switch to a quiz on the unit page; use flashcards when you want to revisit quotations. Choose a map and follow a branch that interests you.
