I don't have Miss Austen's books with me, but I believe you are correct. I don't mind pedantic, but I can't stand boring. And she also pushes the feminist line and blames Miss Austen for failing to adhere to HER enlightened 21st century doctrines, which are of course correctly whatever the place and time. She condemns Miss Austen for having Marianne Dashwood marry Colonel Brandon - thinks it's an "unhappy ending" and claims that it was just stuck on because Miss Austen couldn't figure out what to do with an "independent woman." This argument is so totally out of touch with 19th century life, Miss Austen's writings, and even reality in general that it's hard to understand.
Jane lies in Winchester--blessed be her shade!
Praise the lord for making her, and her for all she made!
And while the stones of Winchester, or Milsom Street, remain,
Glory, love, and honour unto England's Jane!
- Rudyard Kipling
