Austen is commonly used as a reference to Jane Austen, a renowned English novelist known for her literary works like "Pride and Prejudice," "Sense and Sensibility," and "Emma" all written during the 18th century. Her work offers a critique of the British landed gentry at the end of the 18th century, and her plots often explore the dependence of women on marriage in the pursuit of favourable social standing and economic security. This term, however, can also be a given name for both males and females.
