Persuasion , by Jane Austen , is part of the Barnes & Noble Classics series, which offers quality editions at affordable prices to the student and the general reader, including new scholarship, thoughtful design, and pages of carefully crafted extras. Here are some of the remarkable features of Barnes & Noble Classics : New introductions commissioned from today's top writers and scholars Biographies of the authors Chronologies of contemporary historical, biographical, and cultural events Footnotes and endnotes Selective discussions of imitations, parodies, poems, books, plays, paintings, operas, statuary, and films inspired by the work Comments by other famous authors Study questions to challenge the reader's viewpoints and expectations Bibliographies for further reading Indices & Glossaries, when appropriateAll editions are beautifully designed and are printed to superior specifications; some include illustrations of historical interest. Barnes & Noble Classics pulls together a constellation of influences—biographical, historical, and literary—to enrich each reader's understanding of these enduring works. In her final novel, as in her earlier ones, Jane Austen uses a love story to explore and gently satirize social pretensions and emotional confusion. Persuasion follows the romance of Anne Elliot and naval officer Frederick Wentworth. They were happily engaged until Anne’s friend, Lady Russell, persuaded her that Frederick was “unworthy.” Now, eight years later, Frederick returns, a wealthy captain in the navy, while Anne’s family teeters on the edge of bankruptcy. They still love each other, but their past mistakes threaten to keep them apart.
Austen may seem to paint on a small canvas, but her characters contain the full range of human passion and moral complexity, and the author’s generous spirit renders them all with understanding, compassion, and humor.

简・奥斯丁(1775―1817),英国十九世纪初期杰出的现实主义小说家。她出生在英格兰汉普郡一个乡村牧师的家庭,从小没有上过正规学校,只在父母的指导下阅读了大量古典文学作品和流行小说。她终身未婚,二十岁左右开始写作,先后写出六部反映英国乡绅生活的长篇小说。一八一一年,匿名发表了《理智与情感》,受到好评,以后又接连出版了《傲慢与偏见》(1813)、《曼斯菲尔德庄园》(1814)、《爱玛》(1815)。她逝世后的第二年,《诺桑觉寺》和《劝导》同时问世,并且第一次署上作者的真名。
作为一名中年阿姨,我来告诉你们这本小说的价值。 因为风靡的原因,大家对奥斯丁小说的印象往往产生误解,最容易把它们归结为“女性小说”,以为它们讲的是浪漫爱情故事,它们的受众多是憧憬浪漫爱情的少女。实则不然,奥斯丁的故事表面上的确是在讲绅士淑女们如何相识、恋爱,...
评分最近在看劝导,奥斯汀的最后一部小说,把上部看完了。没有了热闹的舞会和爱嚼舌的老太,只剩下安妮那颗孤独的心和一段覆水难收的恋情。读这部小说的上半部分,很多地方都不忍卒读,能感觉到自己的心和安妮一起痛。有一个明显的特点是,安妮仿佛带着一双奥斯汀的眼睛看这个...
评分“几乎没有一个女人能拒绝简•奥斯汀。”记不得是在哪里看过这么一句话。虽然不知道其他女同胞们怎么看,我自己是非常喜欢简•奥斯汀的小说的。她的小说中关于婚姻和爱情的主题是人类永远探讨的话题;即使抛开主题,单就她的讽刺艺术而言,就是很值得研究和学习的了。 ...

评分“她年轻的时候被迫采取了谨慎小心的态度,随着年龄的增长,她逐渐染上了浪漫的色彩,这是一个不自然开端的自然结果。” “他对她曾一度情意绵绵,后来见到的女子,他觉得没有一个及得上她的。不过,他除了某种天生的好奇心之外。并不想再见到她,她对他的那股魅力已经永远的...
