    Marianne Dashwood har følelserne uden på tøjet, og da hun forelsker sig i den flotte men upassende John Willoughby, ignorerer hun sin storesøster Elinors advarsel om, at hendes impulsive opførsel gør hende til genstand for sladder og hentydninger. Elinor er derimod altid opmærksom på de sociale konventioner og kæmper for at skjule sin egen romantiske skuffelse, selv for sine allernærmeste.Gennem søstrenes sideløbende erfaringer med kærlighed – og frygten for at miste den – lærer de, at de må være både fornuftige og følsomme, hvis de skal finde lykken i et samfund, hvor magt og status afgør kærlighedens spilleregler.’Fornuft og følelse’ er en af verdenslitteraturens største kærlighedsromaner, som nu udgives i en ny oversættelse af Vibeke Houstrup.

    Da Elizabeth Bennet møder den rige ungkarl Fitzwilliam Darcy, synes hun, at han er både arrogant og indbildsk. Da hun også bliver klar over, at han har stukket en kæp i hjulet for hendes søster Janes kærlighed til hans ven Bingley, vokser hendes modvilje til direkte afsky.Men hvad hun ikke ved, er, at mr. Darcy meget mod sin vilje er blevet betaget af hendes kønne øjne og kvikke tunge, og at denne betagelse er ved at udvikle sig til en meget alvorlig forelskelse.Stolthed og fordom er en af verdenslitteraturens store kærlighedsromaner og en gnistrende satire over sladder og snobbethed i samtidens engelske middelklasse, hvor en mors eneste ambition var at få afsat sine giftefærdige døtre så fordelagtigt som muligt.Romanen er filmatiseret adskillige gange og foreligger med denne nyoversættelse på dansk i en uforkortet udgave.

    With an Introduction and Notes by Dr Nicola Bradbury, University of Reading.Jane Austen teased readers with the idea of a 'heroine whom no one but myself will much like', but Emma is irresistible. 'Handsome, clever, and rich', Emma is also an 'imaginist', 'on fire with speculation and foresight'. She sees the signs of romance all around her, but thinks she will never be married.Her matchmaking maps out relationships that Jane Austen ironically tweaks into a clearer perspective. Judgement and imagination are matched in games the reader too can enjoy, and the end is a triumph of understanding.

    The abridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Jane Austens classic tale of love and loss, Persuasion. Read by the actress Geraldine McEwan. At 27, Anne Elliot is no longer young and has few romantic prospects. Eight years earlier, she had been persuaded by her friend Lady Russell to break off her engagement to Frederick Wentworth, a handsome naval captain with neither fortune nor rank. What happens when they encounter each other again is movingly told in Jane Austens last completed novel. Set in the fashionable societies of Lyme Regis and Bath, Persuasion is a brilliant satire of vanity and pretension, but, above all, it is a love story tinged with the heartache of missed opportunities.

    These three short works show Austen experimenting with a variety of different literary styles, from melodrama to satire, and exploring a range of social classes and settings. The early epistolary novel LADY SUSAN depicts an unscrupulous coquette, toying with the affections of several men. In contrast, THE WATSONS is a delightful fragment, whose spirited heroine - Emma - finds her marriage opportunities limited by poverty and pride. Meanwhile SANDITON, set in a seaside resort, offers a glorious cast of hypochondriacs and spectators, treated by Austen with both amusement and scepticism.

    Emma Woodhouse er både smuk, intelligent og rig. Efter sin mors død har hun indtaget rollen som førstedame på Hartfield, hvor hun bor sammen med sin omsorgsfulde, men noget hypokondriske far. Woodhouse-familien er en af de fornemmeste på egnen, og Emma er meget bevidst om sin overlegne position såvel som sine øvrige fortrin. Da hun påtager sig rollen som Kirsten Giftekniv over for sin veninde Harriet, løber hendes livlige fantasi flere gange af med hende, og hendes tendens til at nære lidt for høje tanker om sig selv og sin egen dømmekraft medfører utallige forviklinger og får helt uforudsete konsekvenser. Emma, som også er meget kærlig og charmerende, har mange venner, der tilsyneladende alle er blinde over for hendes fejl. Bortset fra Mr. Knightley. Han forsøger utrætteligt at få den stædige Emma til at indse sin egen indbildskhed, men da hun endelig begynder at indrømme sandheden over for sig selv, er det lige ved at være for sent."Bogen er som en brusende kvadrille med partnerskifte, til alle efter megen uvished finder den rette … totalbilledets elskværdighed er uimodståelig." – Jacob Paludan, Politiken"Rene mesterstykker er portrætterne af den snakkesyge Miss Bates og Emmas far, den gamle forpylrede Mr. Woodhouse. De er bundkomiske, men meget menneskelige og meget elskelige. Alle hendes figurer træder os lyslevende i møde tværs gennem deres historiske mundering. Giv dem andre hatte, bukser eller kjoler på, og vi har dem spadserende rundt imellem os i dag." – Mogens Knudsen, Information

    Da Elizabeth Bennet første gang møder Fitzwilliam Darcy, finder hun ham arrogant og indbildsk allerede inden, han ved samme lejlighed højlydt fornærmer hendes udseende. Da hun senere finder ud af, at Darcy er hovedårsagen til, at hendes elskede søster Jane ikke kan få den mand, hun elsker, vokser hendes i forvejen stærke modvilje mod ham endnu mere. I den begivenhedsrige fortælling, der herefter følger, udstiller Jane Austen, hvor lidt man kan stole på førstehåndsindtryk, ligesom hun på karakteristisk ironisk vis udstiller snobberi, dumhed, selvoptagethed og flosset moral i det 19. århundredes provinsielle middelklasseliv i England. Det lyder måske trivielt, men det er det ikke. Det er Jane Austen, når hun er bedst, og Stolthed og fordom er en af de uomgængelige kærlighedsromaner i litteraturhistorien."Trods sit antikverede, engelske middelklassemiljø med dets ligeså forældede kønsroller evner en roman som Austens Stolthed og fordom (1813) at skildre kærlighed og længsler, så følelserne står tindrende klare for læseren." – Lars Handesten, Berlingske"Helt ærligt! En roman om engelsk middelklassemiljø i 1700-tallet med mænd, der skal gøre sig fortjent og kvinder, der bare venter på at blive gift. Hvorfor skulle vi gide? Fordi romanen er skrevet af Jane Austen. Fordi den er en af verdenslitteraturens store skildrere af kærlighed og længsler. Fordi vi har slugt de forskellige filmatiseringer gennem årene. Og fordi helten hedder Mr. Darcy." – Kirsten Boas, Kristeligt Dagblad"Stolthed og fordom handler også om det, alle store romaner omhandler: søgningen efter selvet. Og det er den første store roman, der lærer os, at denne søgning lige så vel kan finde sted gennem småsnak i dagligstuen som i jagten på en stor hvid hval eller i den offentlige afstraffelse af utroskab." – Anna Quindlen, Modern Library
