  • James Austen (1765-1819) est le frère aîné de la romancière anglaise Jane Austen. D'un naturel plus grave, voire plus mélancolique que le reste de la fratrie, il devient clergyman. Il se marie deux fois, avec Anne Mathew d'abord, puis avec Mary Lloyd après la mort soudaine d'Anne en mai 1795. Bien qu'écrivant des poèmes, il n'est jamais publié, à l'exception de son hebdomadaire The Loiterer, entre janvier 1789 et mars 1790. (fr)
