Forget the period costume drama presentation of Austen and focus on the central character of Fanny Price: a young woman who learns to think for herself and withstand the force of rich and powerful men. An object lesson in the getting not just of wisdom but of agency; yes, there is a conventional happy ending but it is how it is achieved that is important.
