Mansfield Park Jane Austen

Publisher Marketing: Mansfield Park est un roman de la femme de lettres anglaise Jane Austen paru en 1814, le premier entierement ecrit dans ses annees de maturite, puisqu'elle y a travaille durant l'annee 1813. Souvent considere comme le plus experimental de tous ses ecrits, il est d'un abord plus difficile que les autres et son personnage principal, la timide et silencieuse Fanny Price, est une heroine paradoxale. Cependant Mansfield Park remporte un succes incontestable, puisque tout le tirage est epuise en a peine six mois et apporte a son auteur les gains les plus importants qu'elle ait tires jusque la d'une seule publication.

Published anonymously during her life, Austen's work was renowned for its realism, humour, and commentary on English social rites and society at the time. Austen's writing was supported by her family, particularly by her brother, Henry, and sister, Cassandra, who is believed to have destroyed, at Austen's request, her personal correspondence after Austen's death in 1817. Austen's authorship was revealed by her nephew in A Memoir of Jane Austen, published in 1869, and the literary value of her work has since been recognized by scholars around the world.
