Audience groups literary works by who they were written for or who actually reads them. Wikipedia notes that adaptations of Pride and Prejudice have kept "portraying the memorable characters and themes of the novel, reaching mass audiences" for more than a century. This dimension separates works aimed at a general readership from those written for a narrower or more specialized one.
