图书描述

Book Description

Sense and Sensibility is a novel by Jane Austen that was first published in 1811. It was the first of Austen's novels to be published, under the pseudonym "A Lady." The novel has been adapted for film and television a number of times, most notably in Ang Lee's 1995 version.

Publisher Comments:

Tor Classics are affordably-priced editions designed to attract the young reader. Original dynamic cover art enthusiastically represents the excitement of each story. Appropriate "reader friendly" type sizes have been chosen for each title—offering clear, accurate, and readable text. All editions are complete and unabridged, and feature Introductions and Afterwords.

This edition of Sense and Sensibility includes a Foreword, Biographical Note, and Afterword by Elizabeth Engstrom.

Elinor Dashwood is affectionate and good-natured--but above all, prudent. She takes pride in her ability to conceal her emotions from others. Her younger sister, Marianne, on the other hand, is everything Elinor is not: impulsive, romantic, and carefree. It's hard to imagine two sisters who could be more different.

But twists of fate will unite Elinor and Marianne in a tangled web of deception that could ruin each of them.

Both have decided to marry. Elinor has made a sensible decision and has set her sights on a man she believes will be a good husband and a decent provider. Marianne--swept away by emotion--has lost her heart to a handsome, dashing charmer. Men as different as night and day: but each sister believes she has made the perfect choice.

Or has she?

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 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

著者简介

Jane AustenJane Austen (born Dec. 16, 1775, Steventon, Hampshire, Eng.-died July 18, 1817, Winchester, Hampshire) English novelist. The daughter of a rector, she lived in the circumscribed world of minor landed gentry and country clergy that she was to use in her writing; her closest companion was her sister, Cassandra. Her earliest known writings are mainly parodies, notably of sentimental fiction. In her six full-length novels-Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814), Emma (1815), Persuasion (1817), and Northanger Abbey (published 1817 but written before the others)-she created the comedy of manners of middle-class English life in her time. Her writing is noted for its wit, realism, shrewd sympathy, and brilliant prose style. Through her treatment of ordinary people in everyday life, she was the first to give the novel its distinctly modern character. She published her novels anonymously; two appeared only after her death, which probably resulted from Addison disease.

2009-09-04 看Austen的原文就是做“形容词-副词-名词”转换练习。顺便研究她受典型的家庭妇女式记忆影响的遣词风格——一个词不用则已,用上了,前后十几页都是这个词,反复出现。orz

读后感

评分

终于读完了《理智与情感》一书,同样是出自简•奥斯丁之笔。 看完这本书,总是会不自然地和《傲慢与偏见》一书作比较,好像这本《理》中的人物关系包括其每个人物的性格刻画都更复杂一些,当然玛丽安除外。虽然《理》与《傲》两本书有各自相同的地方,比如《理》中的...

伍尔芙曾说过“在所有伟大作家之中,奥斯丁的伟大是最难在一瞬间把握的” 这句话至少对我是十分适用的。 读得第一本奥斯丁的书是《傲慢与偏见》,在高一军训期间读完的。当时觉得莫名其妙,读得兴味索然,一点也提不起兴趣。感觉只是一群女人天天参加舞会...  

评分

十七岁那年,我在家乡小城的图书馆借到《傲慢与偏见》,时至今日,我仿佛还能够闻到那本牛皮纸包装的旧书散发着的潮湿味道。 三十七岁,我读完《诺桑觉寺》。 她的书陪伴我走过了从少女到中年妇人的里程,她似乎一直静静的站在角落里,冷冷的注视着我身边发生的一切,从不做声...

弗洛姆在《爱的艺术》的前言里告诉他的读者:“ 爱情不是一种与人的成熟程度无关,只需要投入身心的感情。”这句话让我想到了简奥斯汀笔下的玛丽安,在《理智与情感》一书中扮演情感角色的姑娘。 爱情是一种心愿,你不能在大街上走走看看就说他没有,因此你要有这样...
