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。
"Me!" cried Fanny..."Indeed you must excuse me. I could not act any thing if you were to give me the world. No, indeed, I cannot act." At the age of ten, Fanny Price leaves the poverty of her Portsmouth home to be brought up among the family of her wealthy uncle, Sir Thomas Bertram, in the chilly grandeur of Mansfield Park. There she accepts her lowly status, and gradually falls in love with her cousin Edmund. When the dazzling and sophisticated Henry and Mary Crawford arrive, Fanny watches as her cousins become embroiled in rivalry and sexual jealousy. As the company starts to rehearse a play by way of entertainment, Fanny struggles to retain her independence in the face of the Crawfords' dangerous attractions; and when Henry turns his attentions to her, the drama really begins...This new edition does full justice to Austen's complex and subtle story, placing it in its Regency context and elucidating the theatrical background that pervades the novel.

《愛者誓言》(Lover's Vow)藍本是一齣德文戲,叫做'Das Kind der Liebe' (“戀愛中的孩子”(The Love Child)或“庶子”(The Natural Child)。在《曼斯菲爾德莊園》捲一中後,一乾人煽風點火,排練預演,要把寜謐莊園變成喧俗戲園,第二捲隨著托馬斯爵士返傢,《愛者誓言》...
評分首先要說的是這個版本的翻譯很爛,幾乎是強忍著讀完全文。生硬的翻譯體和平實的文字減少瞭閱讀的樂趣,如果翻譯得稍好一些,我想會給它四星。通過對譯文的想像,相信奧斯丁小姐的文筆非常華麗,雖然我沒什麼直接閱讀英文原著的經驗。從今天開始我將抵製南海齣版公司。 從愛情...
評分不論從哪方麵來說,簡·奧斯丁似乎都不是那種可以與“偉大”二字沾上邊的人。這位僅活瞭四十二歲的牧師之女雖然自己終身未嫁,卻在自己的小說中窮形盡相地勾勒瞭男女關係中種種微妙復雜的情愫和局麵。《簡·愛》的作者夏洛蒂·伯朗特曾批評奧斯丁的小說所反映的社會生活過於狹...
評分忽然發現還漏瞭本奧斯汀的書,於是就拿來開始看。 不知道是不是翻譯水平的問題,我最後看的極其火大。 奧斯汀的小說,不是懸疑,不是偵探,不是驚悚, 我簡直懷疑這部小說是僞作,或者是拼湊齣來的,或者是後人續作的。 或者就是翻譯有問題,要知道,中文和英文的語感,確...
