Amazon.com ReviewThough not the first novel she wrote, Sense and Sensibility was the first Jane Austen published. Though she initially called it Elinor and Marianne, Austen jettisoned both the title and the epistolary mode in which it was originally written, but kept the essential theme: the necessity of finding a workable middle ground between passion and reason. The story revolves around the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne. Whereas the former is a sensible, rational creature, her younger sister is wildly romantic--a characteristic that offers Austen plenty of scope for both satire and compassion. Commenting on Edward Ferrars, a potential suitor for Elinor's hand, Marianne admits that while she "loves him tenderly," she finds him disappointing as a possible lover for her sister: Oh! Mama, how spiritless, how tame was Edward's manner in reading to us last night! I felt for my sister most severely. Yet she bore it with so much composure, she seemed scarcely to notice it. I could hardly keep my seat. To hear those beautiful lines which have frequently almost driven me wild, pronounced with such impenetrable calmness, such dreadful indifference! Soon however, Marianne meets a man who measures up to her ideal: Mr. Willoughby, a new neighbor. So swept away by passion is Marianne that her behavior begins to border on the scandalous. Then Willoughby abandons her; meanwhile, Elinor's growing affection for Edward suffers a check when he admits he is secretly engaged to a childhood sweetheart. How each of the sisters reacts to their romantic misfortunes, and the lessons they draw before coming finally to the requisite happy ending forms the heart of the novel. Though Marianne's disregard for social conventions and willingness to consider the world well-lost for love may appeal to modern readers, it is Elinor whom Austen herself most evidently admired; a truly happy marriage, she shows us, exists only where sense and sensibility meet and mix in proper measure. --Alix Wilber : Sense and Sensibility (Collins Classics Though not the first novel she wrote Sense and Sensibility was the first Jane Austen published Though she initially called it Elinor and Marianne Austen jettisoned Livros importados mais vendidos - Saraiva Since it first appeared in 1900 The Wonderful Wizard of Oz has brought joy to generations In it a girl's dream world comes to life as the cyclone lifts Dorothy Lootcoza: Sitemap 9781847441690 1847441696 Under A Blood Red Sky Kate Furnivall 9781581334128 1581334125 Winning Traditional Tournament Karate Volumes 1-5 Paul Godshaw Walter Pater - Wikipedia Early life Born in Stepney in London's East End Walter Pater was the second son of Richard Glode Pater a physician who had moved to London in the early 19th Full text of "NEW " - Internet Archive Search the history of over 284 billion web pages on the Internet An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge - Ambrose Bierce INTRODUCTION "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" by Ambrose Bierce is one of the most widely read widely anthologized widely taught and widely admired short Grero: The Masculine Gender and Cure for Heterosexuality Grero: The Masculine Gender and Cure for Heterosexuality (or: Did You Know You're Not Straight?)
