Podrobnosti o e‑knize
Sense and Sensibility is a novel written by Jane Austen and first published in 1811. It is a story about two sisters, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, who are forced to navigate the complexities of love, marriage, and social status in Regency-era England. The novel opens with the death of Mr. Henry Dashwood, leaving his wife and three daughters, Elinor, Marianne, and Margaret, with very little inheritance. The Dashwood family is forced to leave their home, Norland Park, and move to a cottage on the estate of a distant relative, Sir John Middleton. Elinor, the eldest sister, is practical and level-headed, while Marianne is romantic and impulsive. The sisters’ contrasting personalities create tension as they try to find their place in society and navigate their relationships with men. The novel explores the themes of love, marriage, and social class. Austen portrays the societal expectations placed on women during this time period and how these expectations impact their lives. The novel also highlights the importance of financial stability in relationships and how it affects one’s ability to marry for love. Throughout the novel, Austen uses her signature wit and satire to comment on the societal norms of her time. She critiques the societal pressure for women to marry for financial gain rather than love and highlights the double standards between men and women in society. Sense and Sensibility is a timeless classic that continues to resonate with readers today. It is a story about the complexities of human relationships and the importance of finding a balance between reason and emotion. Austen’s masterful storytelling and vivid characters make this novel a must-read for anyone interested in literature or history.
