艾瑪姑娘

內容簡介

內容簡介 《艾瑪姑娘》是珍奧斯汀筆下情節錯綜複雜的喜劇。描述倫敦附近海伯里村莊首富伍德豪斯先生的女兒——艾瑪，聰明熱情又有點自命不凡。她自己不打算結婚，卻非常熱衷於為女友牽線搭橋。她憑著主觀臆想亂點鴛鴦譜，結果屢屢受挫，弄得焦頭爛額。她煞費苦心為人撮合，鬧出許多誤會，到頭來自己卻在無形中墜入情網。Famously described by the author as “a heroine whom no one but myself will much like,” Emma Woodhouse is wealthy and charming, and she delights in interfering with the romantic relationships within her community―though she herself has no desire to marry. As her meddling begins to bear consequences, however, Emma must come to terms with her responsibility and decide on her place in the world. With inimitable wit and incisive social commentary, Austen evokes a complex prism of relational connection and a richness of ordinary life that unfolds from the small world of her most extraordinary heroine.

作者介紹

作者介紹 Jane AustenJane Austen was born on December 16, 1775, in Steventon, Hampshire, in England. Her father, an Anglican clergyman, encouraged her literary pursuits from a young age and by her mid-twenties, Austen had drafted three novels. Following the success of Sense and Sensibility in 1811, she went on to publish Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814), and Emma (1815). Northanger Abbey and Persuasion were published posthumously in 1818. Despite her fondness for marriage plots–all six of her novels end in weddings–Austen never married, living with her mother and sister in the years leading up to her death. She died on July 18, 1817, in the city of Winchester. Over two centuries later, Austen’s novels remain beloved classics, and she is considered one of the foremost writers in English literary history.Stephanie Insley HershinowStephanie Insley Hershinow is an associate professor of English at Baruch College, CUNY, where she specializes in novel theory and eighteenth-century culture.
