I love your intricate analysis of Jane Austen's use of conversation. This is exactly why I frown when people say Jane Austen books are boring, what do you mean?? The dialogues carry the plot. It is so fun to read perfectly composed dialogues that offer an insight into every character. No diologue is wastes as it tells us something of the character we would have otherwise not known.
