This thesis investigates and analyzes Jane Austen's use of literary allusions as a way of challenging the gendered restrictions imposed on reading during the eighteenth century. It also contributes to scholarly conversations surrounding Austen's work, while shedding light on her subversive literary strategies and their implications for the policing of reading between genders. I examine a selection of literary references and allusions found in Persuasion, Sense and Sensibility, and Northanger Abbey, to discern how they challenge prevailing eighteenth-century norms that sought to police and restrict women's reading practices. By undertaking this analysis, I aim to unveil the subversive intent behind Austen's incorporation of literary allusions, particularly as they relate to the gendered dynamics of reading during this historical period. In essence, this research sheds light on the ways Austen employed literary references and allusions as a nuanced form of rebellion against societal expectations and contributes to a deeper understanding of how Austen, through her novels, engaged with and contested the limitations imposed on women's intellectual pursuits. This exploration is framed within the broader context of gender studies and literature, offering insights into the intersectionality of literature and societal norms. The objective is not only to unveil Austen's defiance but also to situate her works as vital components of the ongoing dialogue on gender roles, empowerment, and the transformative potential of literature. By providing a meaningful contribution to the scholarly discourse surrounding Austen's legacy, this thesis positions her not only as a literary figure but also as an advocate for the liberation of women's intellectual autonomy in the eighteenth century.
