Which novel was the final work completed by Jane Austen before her death in 1817?

Answer 1

Persuasion was the last novel completed, although given that it's much shorter than her others, it's not clear if she really thought it was done. I believe she authorized her brother (Henry) to have it published. Mansfield Park was the last one she saw published.

The actual final "work" was not a novel but a poem, I think it was called "When Winchester Races" and it includes this:
When once we are buried you think we are dead
But behold us immortal!

(Which is a pretty fitting way for an author to go.)

Although Jane dictated it to her sister Cassandra (she couldn't hold a pencil, this was a day or two before she died) and there is some question about dead vs. gone--I think "dead" scans better but the original was "gone"--however it's not clear whether it was Jane or Cassandra who didn't like to write "dead".

Answer 2

Austen's final novel is titled " Persuasion".It is Jane Austen's completed this last novel in August, 1816 and was first published posthumously in 1818.
'Persuasion' is connected with 'Northanger Abbey' because both stories are laid partly in Bath, a health resort with which Jane Austen was well acquainted, as she lived there from 1801 till 1805. The two books were originally bound up in one volume and published together two years later,

Answer 3

I believe it was "Persuasion" (which is one of her better ones), but I think she also left a few uncompleted manuscripts too.
