DESCRIPCIÓN

DETALLES

Orgullo y prejuicio (PANORAMA) Jane Austen was an English novelist known primarily for her six novels, which implicitly interpret, critique, and comment upon the English landed gentry at the end of the 18th century. Austen's plots often explore the dependence of women on marriage for the pursuit of favourable social standing and economic security. Her works are an implicit critique of the novels of sensibility of the second half of the 18th century and are part of the transition to 19th-century literary realism. Her deft use of social commentary, realism and biting irony have earned her acclaim among critics and scholars.

The anonymously published Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814), and Emma (1816), were a modest success but brought her little fame in her lifetime. She wrote two other novels—Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, both published posthumously in 1817—and began another, eventually titled Sanditon, but died before its completion. She also left behind three volumes of juvenile writings in manuscript, the short epistolary novel Lady Susan, and the unfinished novel The Watsons.
Since her death Austen's novels have rarely been out of print. A significant transition in her reputation occurred in 1833, when they were republished in Richard Bentley's Standard Novels series (illustrated by Ferdinand Pickering and sold as a set). They gradually gained wide acclaim and popular readership. In 1869, fifty-two years after her death, her nephew's publication of A Memoir of Jane Austen introduced a compelling version of her writing career and supposedly uneventful life to an eager audience. Her work has inspired a large number of critical essays and has been included in many literary anthologies. Her novels have also inspired many films, including 1940's Pride and Prejudice, 1995's Sense and Sensibility and 2016's Love & Friendship.

Jane Austen es una de las escritoras más importantes de la literatura mundial y, probablemente, una de las más influyentes, comparable a Shakespeare, Dickens o Cervantes. Hija de un humilde rector, tuvo seis hermanos y una hermana que, como ella, tampoco llegó a casarse nunca. En vida, publicó cuatro novelas que, aunque obtuvieron cierto reconocimiento, no la libraron de una vida de estrecheces económicas.

Sus obras más conocidas son "Orgullo y prejuicio, Sentido y sensibilidad, Emma, Persuasión, Mansfield Park" o "La abadía de Northanger". Estos títulos se siguen reeditando y sus obras completas están siempre disponibles en librerías sin dejar de llamar la atención de mentes ávidas de lecturas clásicas. Sus novelas retratan a la sociedad inglesa de la época con una perspicacia y un conocimiento de la naturaleza humana sorprendente.

Austen siempre inspira sus obras en entornos familiares, en los que a menudo los buenos modales esconden sentimientos. Con una prosa sutil y llena de sentido del humor, la autora creó personajes que rezuman vida desde la primera página.
