Through Fanny Price, the heroine of Mansfield Park, Jane Austen views the social mores of her day and contemplates human nature itself. A shy and sweet-tempered girl adopted by wealthy relations, Fanny is an outsider looking in on an unfamiliar, and often inhospitable, world. But Fanny eventually wins the affection of her benefactors, endearing herself to the Bertram family and the reader alike.
In her Introduction, Carol Shields writes, [Mansfield Park's] overriding theme is difficult to isolate, since the novel is about everything it touches upon: nurturing, steadfastness, belonging and not belonging, about fine gradations of moral persuasion, about human noise and silence, and about action and stillness.
奥斯丁,1775年12月16日生于斯蒂文顿乡一教区牧师家庭。受到较好的家庭教育,主要教材就是父亲的文学藏书。奥斯丁一家爱读流行小说,多半是庸俗的消遣品。她少女时期的习作就是对这类流行小说的滑稽模仿,这样就形成了她作品中嘲讽的基调。她的六部小说《理智与感伤》(1811)《傲慢与偏见》(1813)《曼斯斐尔德花园》(1814)《爱玛》(1815)以及作者逝世以后出版的《诺桑觉修道院》(1818)和《劝导》(1818),大半以乡镇上的中产阶级日常生活为题材,通过爱情婚姻等方面的矛盾冲突反映了18世纪末、19世纪初英国社会的风貌。作品中往往通过喜剧性的场面嘲讽人们的愚蠢、自私、势利和盲目自信等可鄙可笑的弱点。奥斯丁的小说出现在19世纪初叶,一扫风行一时的假浪漫主义潮流,继承和发展了英国18世纪优秀的现实主义传统,为19世纪现实主义小说的高潮做了准备,起到了承上启下的重要作用。
I decided to close read/reread Jane Austen's novels, started from Pride and Prejudice and now finished Mansfield Park. Pride and Prejudice is more witty and funny (and more popular). But Mansfield Park gets its credit onmoral discipline, reflecting change i...
评分《曼斯菲尔德庄园》(Mansfield Park)不是娇娇儿,无论问世之初,或者如今,往往冷落诟病多过哄抬热捧,随便翻翻Amazon网页,问津人员数完全不可比拟简.奥斯丁的《傲慢》、《理智》、《爱玛》诸篇。我原也不喜欢,女主角空前弱小,男主角摇摆不宁,情节嫌赘长。之前浏览拜亚特...
评分以前觉得精装书正统严肃厚重僵硬。而这本书的装帧舒服,内容怡人,居然由此喜欢精装书了。虽然连着读了几天才读完,但过足了捧着精装书的精致阅读的感觉,甚至觉得那几天的生活都被蕾丝化了。
评分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...
评分Too long - Austen's longest I think. To be moving so slowly in the first 45 chapters, then to resolve all the suspense in the last 3! I quite like the Crawfords. Though vain, selfish and flippant, they are shrewd observers capable of admiring moral goodness. Mary is the only funny one among the bunch! She and Edmund don't deserve each other!
