Identity
When we go to Six Flags Great Adventure, we don't have to put on an alternate identity. Unless you count "crazy tourist screaming our heads off on the highest roller coaster on the east coast." Austenland isn't your average theme park. It's more like a resort, for one thing. And it's a resort with a requirement beyond the small fortune it takes to stay there: you have to stay in character.
It's like a sleepaway camp for period actors in training. Everyone there is someone else, and Jane has to do her best to fit in. Austenland is, like, the one place where you're encouraged to not be yourself. Well, that, and maybe high school.
Jane goes to Austenland to get her naïve obsession with 19th century love out of her system, but she ends up strengthening it.
Jane wouldn't have fallen in love with Henry if his actual identity didn't match the identity of his character—Mr. Nobley—so closely.
