La última y conmovedora novela de Jane Austen, publicada póstumamente en 1818
Traducción de M. Ortega y Gasset
Persuasión narra la historia de Anne, una mujer madura, sensible y menospreciada, que años después de dejarse persuadir para rechazar al hombre que amaba, lo ve reaparecer en su vida, rico y honorable pero aún despechado. Una serie de enredos les llevarán a compartir de nuevo espacios y relaciones sociales, poniendo a prueba el vÃnculo que tuvieron en su dÃa. Quizá por primera vez en la historia de la novela, la mujer debe luchar para que el amor le conceda una segunda oportunidad. Esta obra de madurez está considerada una de las novelas más maduras y sutiles de Jane Austen y da un nuevo giro al ya consagrado estilo de la autora. Esta cuidada edición conmemorativa de la novela es perfecta para regalar a amantes de la autora y a aquellos que quieran empezar a leer su magnÃfica obra. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope...I have loved none but you. ― Jane Austen, Persuasion Persuasion is the last novel fully completed by Jane Austen. It was published at the end of 1817, six months after her death. Persuasion has been the subject of several adaptations, including four made-for-television adaptations, theater productions, radio broadcasts, and other literary works. The story concerns Anne Elliot, a young Englishwoman of twenty-seven years, whose family moves to lower their expenses and reduces their debt by renting their home to an Admiral and his wife. His wife's brother, Navy Captain Frederick Wentworth, was engaged to Anne in 1806, but the engagement was broken when Anne was persuaded by her friends and family to end their relationship. Anne and Captain Wentworth, both single and unattached, meet again after a seven-year separation, setting the scene for many humorous encounters as well as a second, well-considered chance at love and marriage for Anne in her second bloom. The novel was well-received in the early 19th century, but its greater fame came later in the century and continued into the 20th and 21st centuries. Much scholarly debate on Austen's work has since been published. Anne Elliot is noteworthy among Austen's heroines for her relative maturity. As Persuasion was Austen's last completed work, it is accepted as her most maturely-written novel, showing a refinement of literary conception indicative of a woman approaching forty years of age. Her use of free indirect discourse in narrative was in full evidence by 1816. A True Classic that Belongs on Every Bookshelf!
