e het geld niet kunt terugkrijgen, wanneer je 't eens hebt afgestaan. Je zusters zullen trouwen, en dan is het voor goed weg. Als het nu nog ooit aan onzen armen kleinen jongen kon worden teruggegeven..." "O, zeker," zei haar man heel ernstig, "dat zou een groot verschil maken. Er kan een tijd komen, waarin Harry er spijt van heeft, dat zulk een groote som werd weggeschonken. Als hij bijvoorbeeld een groot gezin had, dan zou het een welkome vermeerdering zijn." "Natuurlijk, dat spreekt vanzelf." "Misschien was het dan voor alle betrokken partijen beter als we de som tot op de helft verminderden. Vijfhonderd pond zou een ontzaglijke vermeerdering van hun fortuin beteekenen." "O, maar meer dan ze in de verste verte konden verwachten! Welke broer ter wereld zou ook maar half zooveel doen voor zijn zusters, zelfs als ze werkelijk zijn zusters waren! Maar zooals hier--halfzusters maar!--Je bent nu eenmaal zoo edelmoedig van aard!" "Ik zou niet graag schriel willen zijn,"

Pride and Prejudice is a romantic novel by Jane Austen set in the 18th century, first published in 1813. The story plot is about Bennet family that has 5 unmarried but attractive daughters. Mrs. Bennet is always looking for eligible prospects for her daughters especially military officers, until one day the family meets two rich, good looking and eligible bachelors who come to stay in their neighbourhood. Things are starting to build, speculations rise and sparks fly when the youngest daughter Elizabeth encounters the young and rich Mr. Darcy. But shortly after the two gentlemen leave for London leaving the whole town wondering will they come back?

Adopted into the household of her uncle, Sir Thomas Bertram, Fanny price grows up a br>Meek outsider among her cousins in the Unaccustomed elegance of Mansfield Park. Soon after Sir Thomas absents himself on estate business in Antigua (the family's investment in slavery and sugar is considered in the introduction in a new, post-colonial light), Mary Crawford and her brother Henry arrive at Mansfield, bringing with them London glamour, and the seductive taste for flirtation and theatre that precipitated a crisis. While Mansfield Park appears in some ways to continue where pride and Prejudice left off, it is, as Kathryn Sutherland shows in her illuminating introduction, a much darker work, which challenges 'the very values (of tradition, stability, retirement and faithfulness) it appears to endorse'. This new edition provides an accurate text based, for the first time since its original publication, on the first edition of 1814.

The Novels of Jane Austen: Sense and Sensibility Authored by Jane Austen

The Novels of Jane Austen: Sense and Sensibility Authored by Jane Austen

Emma Woodhouse, aged 20 at the start of the novel, is a young, beautiful, witty, and privileged woman in Regency England. She lives on the fictional estate of Hartfield in Surrey in the village of Highbury with her elderly widowed father, who is excessively concerned for his health and that of his loved ones. Emma's friend and only critic is the gentlemanly George Knightley, her neighbour from the adjacent estate of Donwell, and the brother of her elder sister Isabella's husband, John. As the novel opens, Emma has just attended the wedding of Miss Taylor, her best friend and former governess. Having introduced Miss Taylor to her future husband, Mr. Weston, Emma takes credit for their marriage, and decides that she rather likes matchmaking. Against Mr. Knightley's advice, Emma forges ahead with her new interest, and tries to match her new friend Harriet Smith, a sweet, pretty, but none-too-bright parlour boarder of seventeen-described as "the natural [i.e., illegitimate] daughter of somebody"-to Mr. Elton, the local vicar. Emma becomes convinced that Mr. Elton's constant attentions are a result of his attraction and growing love for Harriet. But before events can unfold as she plans, Emma must first persuade Harriet to refuse an advantageous marriage proposal. Her suitor is a respectable, educated, and well-spoken young farmer, Robert Martin, but Emma decides he isn't good enough for Harriet. Against her own wishes, the easily influenced Harriet rejects Mr. Martin. Emma's schemes go awry when Mr. Elton, a social climber, fancies Emma is in love with him and proposes to her. Emma's friends had suggested that Mr. Elton's attentions were really directed at her, but she had misread the signs. Emma, rather shocked and angered, tells Mr. Elton that she had thought him attached to Harriet; however Elton is outraged at the very idea of marrying the socially inferior Harriet. After Emma rejects Mr. Elton, he leaves for a while for a sojourn in Bath, and Harriet fancies herself heartbroken. Emma feels dreadful about misleading Harriet and resolves-briefly-to interfere less in people's lives.

Mansfield Park is the third novel by Jane Austen, written at Chawton Cottage between February 1811 and 1813. It was published in May 1814 by Thomas Egerton, who published Jane Austen's two earlier novels, Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice. When the novel reached a second edition in 1816, its publication was taken over by John Murray, who also published its successor, Emma.The events of the story are put in motion by the marriages of three sisters. Lady Bertram married extremely well to the wealthy baronet Sir Thomas Bertram, while Mrs. Norris married a clergyman, who was given the living at the local parsonage by Sir Thomas; this allows the Norrises to live comfortably, yet far below the opulence of the Bertrams. The third sister, Mrs. Price, married a naval lieutenant who was shortly afterwards wounded in battle and left with a meager pension, scarcely enough to support their eventual household of nine children. Mrs. Norris, always wishing to appear virtuous, proposes that Lady Bertram take one of the children to live with her at Mansfield Park. They choose the eldest daughter Fanny Price, who is the protagonist of the novel. Thus, at age 10, Fanny is sent to live with her wealthy relatives at Mansfield Park.Fanny's new life is not as she might wish. Her energetic Aunt Norris, who strongly advocated the plan of bringing Fanny when it was first proposed, becomes less interested as time goes on and does little to assist with Fanny's care, except to frequently point out the bother and expense Fanny causes. Aunt Norris refuses to allow a fire to be set in Fanny's room, though Fanny is in poor health. At Mansfield Park, Fanny grows up with her four older cousins, Tom (17), Edmund (16), Maria (13), and Julia (12), but is always treated as an unwanted poor relation. Only Edmund shows real kindness. He is also the most good-natured of the siblings: Maria and Julia are vain and spoiled, while Tom is an irresponsible gambler. Over time, Fanny's gratitude for Edmund's thoughtfulness secretly grows into romantic love. Lady Bertram is of a lazy and indolent temperament and rarely does anything to assist the raising or monitoring of the children, while all of the children are in awe of Sir Thomas. Mrs. Norris showers attention and affection on her Bertram nieces, particularly Maria, enjoying the prestige and wealth associated with them, but is verbally abusive and mean-spirited toward Fanny, whom she sees as beneath the others. She tries to exclude Fanny from outings and other pleasures. A few years after Fanny arrives, Aunt Norris is widowed, moves into a cottage of her own, and becomes a constant presence at Mansfield Park. Meanwhile, Tom Bertram, the spendthrift son, incurs a large debt through irresponsible spending and gambling. To pay these debts, Sir Thomas is forced to sell the living of the parsonage, recently freed up by the death of Uncle Norris, to the well-to-do clergyman Dr. Grant, even though Sir Thomas had hoped to keep this lifetime position for his younger son Edmund.When Fanny is 16, stern patriarch Sir Thomas leaves for a year to deal with problems on his plantation in Antigua. He takes Tom along, hoping the experience will sober him. Meanwhile, Mrs. Norris has taken on the task of finding a husband for Maria and manages to introduce her favourite niece to Mr. Rushworth, a very rich man of L12,000 a year, but rather weak-willed and stupid. Maria accepts his marriage proposal, subject to Sir Thomas's approval on his return................

Northanger Abbey was the first of Jane Austen's novels to be completed for publication, though she had previously made a start on Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice. According to Cassandra Austen's Memorandum, Susan (as it was first called) was written about the years 1798-1799. Northanger Abbey was written by Austen in 1798, revised for the press in 1803, and sold in the same year for £10 to a Bath bookseller, who after allowing it to remain for many years on his shelves, was content to sell it back to the novelist's brother, Henry Austen, for the exact sum which he had paid for it at the beginning, not knowing that the writer was already the author of four popular novels. The novel was brought out posthumously in late December 1817 (given 1818 on the title-page), as the first two of a four-volume set with Persuasion

"Sense and Sensibility", pubblicato nel 1811, in tre volumi, fu il primo romanzo la cui autrice rimaneva anonima (By a Lady). Ha per tema il contrasto tra la ragione di Elinor e l'emotività di Marianne, due sorelle. Per una gran parte del romanzo la narrazione, che segue Elinor, prende chiaramente la difesa della razionalità e dell'assennatezza, ma questo poi diviene meno scontato e la scrittrice si interroga sinceramente fra i due atteggiamenti nell'affrontare le delusioni della vita. Pertanto il libro è tuttora attuale, come lo è questo tipo di contrasto nella mente umana. Inoltre, il sottile umorismo dell'autrice nel trattare i temi delle relazioni amorose ne fanno una antesignana del genere "Chick lit", in cu si ironizza su romanticherie e sdolcinatezze. Il testo è stato più volte rimaneggiato e adattato per testi televisivi.Traduzione di Silvia Cecchini.

En esta novela, Amor y amistad, se reúnen los tres cuadernos que Jane Austen escribió a muy temprana edad (13-14 años), y que ella misma llamó volúmenes y numeró colectivamente del I al III. Hay textos que no corrigió nunca, pero otros son piezas muy evolucionadas que la autora revisó justo antes de la publicación de Juicio y sentimiento. En los textos prevalece un humor más desatado en inventiva de lo que será normal en la autora, pero muy parecida al resto de su obra en los aspectos irónicos e incisivos.

Emma is a comedic novel by Jane Austen, published in 1816. It is generally regarded as the most perfectly constructed of all her works, concerning the perils of misconstrued romance

Pride and Prejudice is a novel by Jane Austen, first published in 1813. The story charts the emotional development of the protagonist, Elizabeth Bennet, who learns the error of making hasty judgements and comes to appreciate the difference between the superficial and the essential. The comedy of the writing lies in the depiction of manners, education, and marriage and money in the British Regency. Mr Bennet of the Longbourne estate has 5 daughters, but his property is entailed meaning that none of the girls can inherit it. Having married a woman who had no fortune, it is imperative that one of the girls marries well in order to support the others on his death. However, Jane Austen's opening line 'It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife' is a sentence filled with irony and playfulness. The novel revolves around the necessity of marrying for love, not simply for mercenary reasons despite the social pressures to make a good (i.e) wealthy match.
