JANE AUSTEN PRIDE AND PREJUDICE EMMA & MANSFIEL...

Pride and Prejudice is a novel first published in 1813. The story follows the main character
Elizabeth Bennet as she deals with issues of manners  upbringing  morality  education  and
marriage in the society of the landed gentry of early 19th-century England. Mansfield Park is
Jane Austen's 1814 novel focusing on Fanny Price  the daughter of a poor Portsmouth family  who
is taken to live with her aunt and uncle Bertram's family on their estate at the age of ten.
Surrounded by her wealthy and privileged cousins  and continually reminded of her lower status
by her bullying Aunt Norris  Fanny grows up timid and shy  but with a strong sense of ethics 
partly instilled by her kindly cousin Edmund. Fanny's gratitude and friendship for Edmund
gradually grow into love  but the introduction of Mary and Henry Crawford  a captivating sister
and brother  into the neighborhood of Mansfield Park  confuses and complicates the affections
of the Bertram household. Emma is a novel about youthful hubris and the perils of misconstrued
romance. The novel was first published in 1815. As in her other novels  Austen explores the
concerns and difficulties of genteel women living in Georgian-Regency England  she also creates
a lively comedy of manners among her characters. Jane Austen (1775 - 1817) was an English
novelist whose works of romantic fiction  set among the landed gentry  earned her a place as
one of the most widely read writers in English literature. Her realism and biting social
commentary have gained her historical importance among scholars and critics.
