Austen, J: Mansfield Park

Austen, J: Mansfield Park


en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 mai 2012
The beautiful, spacious estate of Mansfield Park is the residence of Sir Thomas and Lady Bertram, with their two daughters and two sons. They soon share their good fortune with Fanny Price, the timid, delicate niece of Lady Bertram who comes to live with them. Far from her parents' home in Portsmouth, Fanny finds her new life a bit awkward until a family theatrical production loosens the social conventions that normally govern the household. Fanny soon becomes an indispensable part of things, but when Sir Thomas is required to travel abroad, dangerous alliances threaten the family's stability. In the end, it is Fanny's quiet, earnest character that saves the day. Newly designed and typeset by Waking Lion Press.

Notă biografică

Jane Austen (1775-1817) One of the world's most famous and prolific women authors, Jane Austen was born in Hampshire, England. Austen remains a dearly loved novelist, thanks to her social commentary on the British gentry at the time. She extensively wrote about women and their dependence on men, the said and unsaid rules of patriarchy, and what they had to do in order to either gain or retain their social standing. Crafted with classic humour, wit, and sarcasm, Austen's writing transcends the barriers of age and time. Jane Austen started writing at a young age for the amusement of those around her, as gifts for loved ones - and, interestingly, as a way of catharsis. Given that the society at the time viewed women in restricted social roles - as merely mothers and wives - Austen published her books anonymously. The truth was only made public by her brother, Henry, after her death in 1817. Of her published novels - some of which include Sense and Sensibility, Mansfield Park, Emma, Northanger Abbey - Pride and Prejudice remains one of the best-loved works among readers to this day. She also wrote an adapted play, titled Sir Charles Grandison, and a satire called Plan of a Novel in addition to multiple poems, letters, and prayers during her lifetime.

Recenzii

''Well! This is brilliant indeed! - This is admirable! - Excellently contrived, upon my word. Nothing wanting. Could not have imagined it.' Miss Bates at the ball at the Crown Inn might have been welcoming The Cambridge Edition of the Works of Jane Austen. … aims are achieved in an apparently seamless and readable manner. … The authors have largely achieved an admirable impartiality, but delightfully not always. … judgements can be made … novels themselves are printed in large type and a pleasure to read. The copytext adopted is the one that in each case was nearest to Jane Austen. … notes are copious and informative. The Cambridge Edition justifies its claim to be 'the first ever scholarly edition of the works of Jane Austen', and is a fine tribute to her for the twenty-first century.' Jane Austen Society
