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。
看完这本书挺失望的,完全不能代表简奥斯丁的水准。主角范妮,不再是聪慧、独立、活泼的特性,而是变得羞涩、温柔、隐忍,是一个“灰姑娘”的角色。而本书名义上仍然以男女恋爱婚姻为素材,但实际上却直指家庭教育对年轻人成长的影响,对于他的两个女儿,托马斯爵士“本想让她...
评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,...
评分首先要说的是这个版本的翻译很烂,几乎是强忍着读完全文。生硬的翻译体和平实的文字减少了阅读的乐趣,如果翻译得稍好一些,我想会给它四星。通过对译文的想像,相信奥斯丁小姐的文笔非常华丽,虽然我没什么直接阅读英文原著的经验。从今天开始我将抵制南海出版公司。 从爱情...

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!
