While enjoying a six weeks' stay in fashionable Bath, the young and callow Catherine Morland is introduced to the delights of high society. Thanks to a new literary diet of the sensational and the macabre, Catherine travels to Northanger Abbey fully expecting to become embroiled in a Gothic adventure of intrigue and suspense - and, once there, soon begins to form the most gruesome and improbable theories about the exploits of its occupants.An early work, but published posthumously, Northanger Abbey is a parody of the Gothic genre typified by the novels of Ann Radcliffe, as well as a witty comedy of manners in the style of Jane Austen's later novels and, ultimately, an enchanting love story.ABOUT THE SERIES: Alma Evergreens is a series of popular classics.

This is the "Penguin English Library Edition" of "Northanger Abbey" by Jane Austen. 'To look almost pretty, is an acquisition of higher delight to a girl who has been looking plain the first fifteen years of her life, than a beauty from her cradle can ever receive'. During an eventful season at Bath, young, naive Catherine Morland experiences the joys of fashionable society for the first time. She is delighted with her new acquaintances: flirtatious Isabella, who shares Catherine's love of Gothic romance and horror, and sophisticated Henry and Eleanor Tilney, who invite her to their father's mysterious house, Northanger Abbey. There, her imagination influenced by novels of sensation and intrigue, Catherine imagines terrible crimes committed by General Tilney. With its broad comedy and irrepressible heroine, this is the most youthful and optimistic of Jane Austen's works. "The Penguin English Library" - 100 editions of the best fiction in English, from the eighteenth century and the very first novels to the beginning of the First World War.

Introduction and Notes by David Blair, University of Kent. Northanger Abbey tells the story of a young girl, Catherine Morland who leaves her sheltered, rural home to enter the busy, sophisticated world of Bath in the late 1790s. Austen observes with insight and humour the interaction between Catherine and the various characters whom she meets there, and tracks her growing understanding of the world about her. In this, her first full-length novel, Austen also fixes her sharp, ironic gaze on other kinds of contemporary novel, especially the Gothic school made famous by Ann Radcliffe. Catherine's reading becomes intertwined with her social and romantic adventures, adding to the uncertainties and embarrassments she must undergo before finding happiness.

V dobách, kdy ženy bývaly křehké květinky a mladé dívky často interesantně omdlévaly, vytvořila Jane Austenová ve své Emmě hrdinku z jiného kadlubu. Když v útlém mládí ztratí matku a na otce, slabošského hypochondra, nelze spoléhat, ujme se správy věcí na rodném panství sama a nároky, které na ni nelehká situace klade, vypěstují v bystré dívce vlastnosti suverénního generála. Jen ona všemu rozumí, jen ona ví, co je pro každého dobré. Tímto způsobem ovšem kráčí od maléru k maléru a často pěkně zavaří i těm, kterým upřímně chtěla pomoci. Ale protože jí nechybí dobré srdce, časem zmoudří a pochopí, kde hledat v životě ty pravé hodnoty. Román (v jeho filmovém zpracování ztvárnila Emmu oblíbená Gwyneth Paltrowová) zažívá v poslední době novou vlnu čtenářského zájmu. Je to snad tím, že dnešní ženy v jeho hrdince rozpoznávají předchůdkyni svého úsilí o společenské uznání svých schopností - a také úskalí, jimž by se přitom měly vyhnout?

In the vein of Downton Abbey, Jane Austen's beloved but unfinished masterpiece-often considered her most modern and exciting novel-gets a spectacular second act in this tie-in to a major new limited television series. Written only months before Austen's death in 1817, Sanditon tells the story of the joyously impulsive, spirited and unconventional Charlotte Heywood and her spiky relationship with the humorous, charming (and slightly wild!) Sidney Parker. When a chance accident transports her from her rural hometown of Willingden to the would-be coastal resort of the eponymous title, it exposes Charlotte to the intrigues and dalliances of a seaside town on the make, and the characters whose fortunes depend on its commercial success. The twists and turns of the plot, which takes viewers from the West Indies to the rotting alleys of London, exposes the hidden agendas of each character and sees Charlotte discover herself... and ultimately find love.

Okouzlující jednadvacetiletá slečna náhle postrádá spřízněnou duši, a tak se ujímá poddajné Harriet, siroty nejasného původu, a rozhodne se vyhlídky své chráněnky dirigovat. Snahou o dívčino zušlechtění i sérií pošetile uplatněných dohadů, co kdo v okolí ke komu cítí a pro koho by se hodil nejlíp, však životu na panství vůbec neprospívá. Blahosklonné předpojatosti se vrší, maléry se stupňují, bližní strádají.

Introduction and Notes by Dr Ian Littlewood, University of Sussex. Adultery is not a typical Jane Austen theme, but when it disturbs the relatively peaceful household at Mansfield Park, it has quite unexpected results. The diffident and much put-upon heroine Fanny Price has to struggle to cope with the results, re-examining her own feelings while enduring the cheerful amorality, old-fashioned indifference and priggish disapproval of those around her.

Hrdinky příběhu, upřímná, naivní mladičká Catherine a její mazaná přítelkyně Isabella, si toto své poslání zpestřují četbou strašidelných gotických románů a jejich rekvizity vidí na každém kroku.

Nešlo jen o venkovská sídla a taneční sály, šlo o život často plný bolestných bojů. Austenová zdánlivě proplouvala „životem bez událostí“, ale díky novým výzkumům a náhledům nám historička Lucy Worsleyová odhaluje vášnivou ženu bojující za svou svobodu. Ženu, která neodpovídala obrazu osamělé staré panny (ve skutečnosti dostala pětkrát nabídku k sňatku) a odmítala se usadit s kýmkoli menším, než byl její pan Darcy.

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.

Mansfieldské panství má všechny potřebné atributy úspěšného románu – spletitý barvitý příběh plný plasticky vylíčených postav, vrcholící šťastným koncem.
