Om denne e-bog
Jane Austen's 'Persuasion' is a remarkable novel that explores themes of love, social class, and the nature of persuasion in Regency-era England. Written in Austen's signature style of wit and social commentary, the novel follows the story of Anne Elliot, a young woman who is persuaded to reject the man she loves due to his lack of wealth and social standing. As the plot unfolds, readers are treated to a thoughtful examination of the consequences of both following and resisting societal pressures. 'Persuasion' is a must-read for fans of Austen's other works, such as 'Pride and Prejudice' and 'Sense and Sensibility.' The novel offers a nuanced portrayal of human relationships and the complexities of love and social expectations in the early 19th century.
Om forfatteren
Jane Austen (1775-1817) remains one of the most celebrated writers in English literature, renowned for her sharp wit, insightful social commentary, and masterful use of free indirect discourse. Born on December 16, 1775, in Steventon, Hampshire, Austen lived a life immersed in the world she depicted: the gentry of rural England. Persuasion, published posthumously in 1817 alongside 'Northanger Abbey', is a poignant novel that explores themes of love, regret, and social mobility with the subtlety and humor characteristic of Austen's works. It tells the story of Anne Elliot, who, years after being persuaded to reject a marriage proposal from the man she loved, encounters him again and must navigate the complexities of their rekindled relationship in a society where status and wealth often overshadow genuine emotion. Like her other novels, 'Persuasion' possesses a narrative sophistication that allows Austen to critique the social norms of her time while creating characters of enduring resonance. Her other major novels, including 'Pride and Prejudice', 'Sense and Sensibility', 'Mansfield Park', and 'Emma', also reflect her narrative dexterity and profound understanding of human relationships. Austen's literary voice continues to influence writers and delight readers, securing her place as a timeless icon in literary history.
