The broader Regency period 1795-1820 stands alone as an incredible moment in fashion history unlike anything that went before or after. It was the most naked period since Ancient Greece and before the 1960s, and for the first time England became a fashion influence, especially for menswear, and became the toast of Paris. With the ancient regime deposed, court dress became secondary and the season by season flux of fashion as we know it came into being, aided and abetted by the proliferation of new ladies magazines. Such an age of revolution and innovation inspired a flood of fashions taking influence from everything including the newly discovered treasures of the ancient world, to radical new ideas like democracy. It was an era of contradiction immortalized by Jane Austen, who adeptly used the newfound diversity of fashion to enliven her characters, Wickham s military splendor, Mr. Darcy s understated elegance, and Miss Tilney s romantic fixation with white muslin.

Jane Austen is without question, one of England’s most enduring and skilled novelists. With her wit, social precision, and unerring ability to create some of literature’s most charismatic and believable heroines, she mesmerises her readers as much today as when her novels were first published. Whether it is her sharp, ironic gaze at the Gothic genre invoked by the adventures of Catherine Morland inNorthanger Abbey; the diffident and much put-upon Fanny Price struggling to cope with her emotions in Mansfield Park; her delightfully paced comedy of manners and the machinations of the sisters Elinor and Marianne in Sense and Sensibility; the quiet strength of Anne Elliot in Persuasion succeeding in a world designed to subjugate her very existence; Emma – ‘a heroine whom no one but myself will like’ teased Austen – yet another irresistible character on fire with imagination and foresight; or the efforts of Mrs Bennet in trying to find a good match for each of her five daughters in Pride and Prejudice.Jane Austen is as sure-footed in her steps through society’s whirlpools of convention and prosaic mores as she is in her sometimes restrained but ever precise and enduring prose. The edition includes Lady Susan, Sanditon and other stories. Our Library Collection hardback series has been completely redesigned, for launch in November 2024.The books are now finished in black, soft-touch linen, cloth bound with metallic gold and matt coloured foil blocking.

Audiokniha: Od svého prvního vydání roku 1815 je Emma Jane Austenové hrdinkou mnoha dívek a žen, které nechtějí být křehké květinky zmítané okolnostmi. Chtějí si rozhodovat o svém osudu samy, byť za cenu omylů, chyb a zklamání. Příběh o dívce s dobrým srdcem je nadčasovým příběhem o emancipaci a hledání pravých životních hodnot. Jane Austenová (1775-1817) Jane Austenová byla anglická spisovatelka, zakladatelka moderního rodinného románu v anglické literatuře. Narodila se v rodině duchovního. Pro úzký okruh rodiny psala Jane Austenová již od patnácti let krátké prózy, básně i dramatické scény. Nikdy se neprovdala. Její díla vycházela za jejího života anonymně, s jejím jménem byla vydávána až po její smrti. Plného pochopení dosáhla až ve dvacátém století. Nejvíce zaujala Jane Austenová svými romány. Ve většině z nich je ústředním motivem myšlenkové a emociální zrání mladé hrdinky, zkoumá svět z ženského hlediska, vychází ze znalostí lidské povahy. Vytváří ve svých románech životné postavy, nedostatky jejích hrdinů vycházejí především ze špatné rodinné výchovy. Všechny její zápletky se zabývají láskou, i když o ní zřídka přímo hovoří. Tereza Richtrová (1982) se narodila v roce 1982 v Brně. Studovala sólový zpěv na Gymnáziu Pavla Křížkovského s uměleckou profilací a poté činoherní herectví na JAMU. Své první stálé angažmá získala v roce 2008 v Moravském divadle Olomouc, kde strávila šest sezón. Za roli Anny v Langerově Periferii se umístila v širší nominaci na Cenu Thálie 2013. Byla nominována v anketě Neviditelný herec za nejpopulárnější výkon na vlnách Českého rozhlasu za rok 2011/12 a 2012/13. Luboš Veselý (1961) Herec Luboš Veselý prošel řadou divadelních scén. Na filmovém plátně se poprvé objevil ve známém snímku Jiřího Svobody Skalpel, prosím. Mohli jsme ho vidět i v televizní komedii režiséra Rudolfa Tesáčka Houpací křeslo, kde hrál po boku Jiřího Kodeta a Miroslava Donutila. Luboš Veselý se objevil v televizních seriálech Dobrodružství kriminalistiky, Světla pasáže, Případy prvního oddělení, První republika, Cukrárna, Život na zámku či Ulice.

Emma is considered by many readers to be Jane Austenâ ™s crowning achievement, a timeless comedy of manners that lays bare the limits on womenâ ™s autonomy in Regency England. The disparity between Emma Woodhouseâ ™s self-confidence and self-knowledge, and her determination to arrange marriages for her friends while avoiding one for herself, leads to a painful series of misunderstandings for everyone who suffers from her well-meaning altruism â “ and with Mr Knightley being the only person of her acquaintance who has the good sense to challenge her, Emma must eventually recognize her match in every sense.Long praised for its rich detail and perfect craftsmanship, Emma is one of those classic masterpieces that readers go back to again and again for its inexhaustible fund of humanity.

I wonder what will become of her! So speculate the friends and neighbours of Emma Woodhouse, the lovely, lively, wilful,and fallible heroine of Jane Austen s fourth published novel. Confident that she knows best, Emma schemes to find a suitable husband for her pliant friend Harriet, only to discover that she understands the feelings of others as little as she does her own heart. As Emma puzzles and blunders her way through the mysteries of her social world, Austen evokes for her readers a cast of unforgettable characters and a detailed portrait of a small town undergoing historical transition. Written with matchless wit and irony, judged by many to be her finest novel, Emma has been adapted many times for film and television. This new edition emphasises the novel s extraordinary technical audacity. While apparently conservative in its choice of setting and range of characters, it was - and is - a formally revolutionary work.
