The empire line is a style of dress with a loose, straight fit and a high waist line. It was popular during the time of 1795 to 1820, which by happenstance was the same period within which Jane Austen wrote her novels. Since her novels were all about young women who fell in love and got married, the main characters in them would all have worn such dresses.

Classic love novels whind end happily?

Jane Austen is a great writer to go for for classic love novels with happy endings, though she has written very few books. You should try 'Pride and Prejudice' and 'Emma'. 'Sense and Sensibility' ends happily too.Something in a different line is 'Jane Eyre' by Charolette Bronte. A lot of passions, trials and sufferings, but it ends happily :)


How did the Englishman of Jane Austen's time acquire their money?

Mainly through trade or inhereitance. There were a fair amount of lawyers and doctors but trade was a growing market. Many wealthy englishmen came from a long line of wealthy englishmen so the majority of their fortune had been left to them by their late fathers. Sons inhereited the family fortune. Very few cases of women inhereiting. This is evident in Jane Austens "Sense and Sensibility" and "Pride and Prejudice".

What is a direct report?

If I am reading the question correctly; someone who is directly under your supervision or control in a company. An indirect report is someone who may work with you, but is not subordinate to you. e.g. Jane is Donna's admin. Jane is a direct report of Donna's. Jane also prepares a weekly summary of activity for Eric. Jane is an indirect report of Eric's. On an organizational chart a direct report is a solid black line while an indirect report is usually a dashed line or light grey line.
