Persuasiune

De Jane Austen

Sensibila si modesta Anne Eliott il reintalneste, dupa ani, pe capitanul de marina Frederick Wentworth cu care fusese logodita si de care se despartise sub influenta celor apropiati. Personaje cu temperamente felurite, animate de sentimente si interese variate, ii inconjoara pe cei doi tineri, defiland in decorul societatii engleze din prima jumatate a secolului al XIX-lea unde, sub ochii nostri, se desfasoara o poveste delicata de dragoste sortita, de asta data, implinirii fericite.

Jane Austen

Jane Austen (1775-1817) was an English novelist known for six major novels, Pride and Prejudice; Sense and Sensibility; Becoming Jane; Emma; Mansfield Park>; and Northanger Abbey. Her writing style has been widely thought of as a cross between realist and romantic genres. Austen’s prose is poignant, and always features a strong-willed female protagonist. While sparing no detail depicting the lavishness of women in the English upper class, Austen also portrayed the reality of gendered social dynamics in the 19th century. Austen has been hailed as a heroine of her own time, in large part because most of the novels of the day were written by men. Indeed, her literature portrayed a female narrative that was often overlooked in the catalogue of male authors at the time. Austen’s platform gave an important voice to girls and women in literature, and it is for that reason, among countless others, that her works continue to inspire readers today.
