奧斯丁,1775年12月16日生於斯蒂文頓鄉一教區牧師傢庭。受到較好的傢庭教育,主要教材就是父親的文學藏書。奧斯丁一傢愛讀流行小說,多半是庸俗的消遣品。她少女時期的習作就是對這類流行小說的滑稽模仿,這樣就形成瞭她作品中嘲諷的基調。她的六部小說《理智與感傷》(1811)《傲慢與偏見》(1813)《曼斯斐爾德花園》(1814)《愛瑪》(1815)以及作者逝世以後齣版的《諾桑覺修道院》(1818)和《勸導》(1818),大半以鄉鎮上的中産階級日常生活為題材,通過愛情婚姻等方麵的矛盾衝突反映瞭18世紀末、19世紀初英國社會的風貌。作品中往往通過喜劇性的場麵嘲諷人們的愚蠢、自私、勢利和盲目自信等可鄙可笑的弱點。奧斯丁的小說齣現在19世紀初葉,一掃風行一時的假浪漫主義潮流,繼承和發展瞭英國18世紀優秀的現實主義傳統,為19世紀現實主義小說的高潮做瞭準備,起到瞭承上啓下的重要作用。

Begun in 1811 at the height of Jane Austen's writing powers and published in 1814, Mansfield Park marks a conscious break from the tone of her first three novels, Northanger Abbey, Sense and Sensibility, and Pride and Prejudice, the last of which Austen came to see as "rather too light." Fanny Price is unlike any of Austen's previous heroines, a girl from a poor family brought up in a splendid country house and possessed of a vast reserve of moral fortitude and imperturbability. She is very different from Elizabeth Bennet, but is the product of the same inspired imagination. Mansfield Park shows Austen as a mature novelist with an almost unparalleled ability to render character and an acute awareness of her world and how it was changing. Through the stories of Fanny Price, the Bertrams, and the Crawfords, she tackles the themes of faith and constancy and the threat that metropolitan manners could pose to a rural way of life. Mansfield Park is as amusing as any of Austen's novels, but, according to the critic Tony Tanner, it is also arguable that it is "her most profound novel --indeed...it is one of the most profound novels of the nineteenth century." About the Series : Each Norton Critical Edition includes an authoritative text, contextual and source materials, and a wide range of interpretations-from contemporary perspectives to the most current critical theory-as well as a bibliography and, in most cases, a chronology of the author's life and work.
忽然发现还漏了本奥斯汀的书,于是就拿来开始看。 不知道是不是翻译水平的问题,我最后看的极其火大。 奥斯汀的小说,不是悬疑,不是侦探,不是惊悚, 我简直怀疑这部小说是伪作,或者是拼凑出来的,或者是后人续作的。 或者就是翻译有问题,要知道,中文和英文的语感,确...
評分其实读原著已是很早以前的事了,记得读的时候很有些不耐烦,毕竟灰姑娘式的女主人公范妮并不是一个很讨人喜欢的姑娘:纤弱易感,腼腆胆怯,罕言寡语,她不像伊丽莎白那样活泼风趣,不像爱玛那样生机勃勃,不像安妮那样一往情深,甚至不像凯瑟琳那样淳朴娇憨。诚然,她识大体,...
評分至今都没想清,在心智尚幼的时候读了那么多简·奥斯丁,对我究竟是好是坏。 第一本是《曼斯菲尔德庄园》,那年我初一。埃德蒙安慰想家哭泣的小范妮,帮她裁信纸削鹅毛笔、改正错别字,简直是温柔到让心融化的场景。接着读《傲慢与偏见》、《理智与情感》,当时肯定是被那些爱...
評分《曼斯菲尔德庄园》是JA小说中最复杂的一部。故事女主角芬妮被富有的姨夫、曼斯菲尔德庄园的主人托马斯爵士收养,是个讲话别扭、胆小拘谨的小姑娘。在曼斯菲尔德真正让她有亲切感的埃德蒙表哥成了教育上引导她的精神导师,同时也是暗恋对象,虽然这个导师在逐渐成年的芬妮面前...
評分應該是Austen最有爭議的一部小說,但不得不說心理描寫和敘述技巧比傲慢與偏見等前期小說進步太多。
评分Mansfield Park is always one of my favourates, and the time I spent on it was more than happy.
