About of the Book
Mansfield Park is the third published novel by Jane Austen, first published in 1814 by Thomas Egerton. A second edition was published in 1816 by John Murray, still within Austen's lifetime. The novel did not receive any public reviews until 1821.

The novel tells the story of Fanny Price, starting when her overburdened family sends her at age ten to live in the household of her wealthy aunt and uncle and following her development into early adulthood. From early on critical interpretation has been diverse, differing particularly over the character of the heroine, Austen's views about theatrical performance and the centrality or otherwise of ordination and religion, and on the question of slavery. Some of these problems have been highlighted in the several later adaptations of the story for stage and screen.

Book Considerations.
¿ "I was astounded to find that many of the reviews on this site criticize this book for the main character, Fanny Price, & her timidity and morality. It is very different from Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility, whose smart, sensible heroines make the novels, but I actually enjoyed this book immensely for its social commentary." - Minerve
¿ "Fanny is one of my favorite Jane Austen protagonists. She's often criticized for not being outspoken and fiesty like the other Austen leads, but Fanny has a quiet strength that I love. In the face of her manipulative and abusive family, she stays calm and strong and refuses to budge on what's in her heart. She fights for her own heart despite tremendous pressure and I love her so much for that." - Merphy
¿ "This edition of Mansfield Park comes with a great introduction and notes, containing interesting information about the publication of this novel and historical context. I have been a huge Jane Austen fan ever since I first saw P&P and shortly thereafter read the novel, leading to me falling in love with the dignified wit and sass this author has had. It can't have been easy in her time, which makes me appreciate her dry humour and social criticism even more." - Trish

Info autore










Jane Austen was an influential English novelist born on 16 December 1775 in Steventon, Hampshire. She is renowned for her six novels, which include classics like "Pride and Prejudice," "Sense and Sensibility," and "Emma." Austen's works often focus on the social and economic struggles of women in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, particularly their reliance on marriage for social standing and financial security. Her sharp critiques of class and social structure, combined with keen observations of human nature, made her one of the most important writers in English literature. Austen's novels continue to resonate due to their timeless themes of love, morality, and societal expectations. She was the seventh of eight children in her family, with her older sister Cassandra being a close confidante throughout her life. Austen's education was limited but sufficient to allow her to develop her literary talents, and she was primarily self-taught. She died on 18 July 1817 in Winchester at the age of 41, leaving behind a legacy of deeply influential works that remain widely read and adapted today.
