"He began to feel the danger of paying Elizabeth too much attention." Pride and Prejudice , one of the most famous love stories of all time, has also proven itself as a treasured mainstay of the English literary canon. With the arrival of eligible young men in their neighbourhood, the lives of Mr. and Mrs. Bennet and their five daughters are turned inside out and upside down.

Will you fail the test - or will you love it too? As a story that celebrates more unflinchingly than any of Austen''s other novels the happy meeting-of-true-minds, and one that has attracted the most fans over the centuries, Pride and Prejudice sets up an echo chamber of good feelings in which romantic love and the love of reading amplify each other.

"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife." So begins Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen's classic novel of manners and mores in early-nineteenth-century England. As the Bennets prepare their five grown daughters to enter into society, each shows personality traits that illuminate their future prospects as wives. Jane, the oldest, is the most demure and traditional, and Lydia, the youngest, the most headstrong and impulsive. Attention centers on haughty second-born Elizabeth, and her blossoming relationship with the dashing but aloof Fitzwilliam Darcy. Adversaries at first in the endless rounds of balls, parties, and social gatherings, they soon develop a grudging respect for one another that blossoms into romance when each comes to appreciate the tender feelings that course beneath the veneer of their propriety and reserve. First published in 1813, Pride and Prejudice is one of the most popular novels in English literature and a cornerstone of Jane Austen's reputation as one of the greatest novelists of all time. This volume is one of Barnes & Noble's Collectible Editions classics. Each volume features authoritative texts by the world's greatest authors in an exquisitely designed foil-stamped binding, with distinctive colored edging and an attractive ribbon bookmark. Decorative, durable, and collectible, these books offer hours of pleasure to readers young and old and are an indispensable cornerstone for any home library.

eBook: In time for the highly-awaited TV series, a new edition of Jane Austen\'s delightful final work, set in a newly established seaside resort with a glorious cast of hypochondriacs and speculatorsIn the final months of Jane Austen\'s life, she began work on a new novel about social drama in the small seaside town of Sanditon, once a small fishing village and now a bustling spa town. In the story of Charlotte Heywood, a new arrival, Austen she contemplated a changing society with a mixture of skepticism and amusement, and notably crafted her only character of color in the mixed-race heiress Miss Lambe. Though unfinished at the time of her death, it is a key work for readers of Jane Austen, and all the moreso with a major upcoming TV adaptation. This volume includes Sanditon, as well as two other lesser-known works, Lady Susan and The Watsons. The early epistolary novel Lady Susan depicts an unscrupulous coquette, toying with several men. And The Watsons is a delightful fragment, whose spirited heroine, Emma, finds her marriage opportunities restricted by poverty and pride. With three vital and less familiar works by one of the most important novelists in the English language, this book is a must-have for Austen fans.

eBook: Lady Susan, novela v dopisech, kterou Jane Austenová nazvala podle hlavní postavy, se v mnohém vymyká nejen další autorčině tvorbě; a k titulní hrdince bychom marně hledali paralelu snad v celé literatuře devatenáctého století. Vždyť tato čerstvá vdova je nejen krásná, ale také navýsost inteligentní a vtipná, nezávislá a nespoutaná; dokáže zamotat hlavu výrazně mladším nápadníkům; v milostných hrách drtivě vítězí nad svou mladičkou dcerou; a byť je jí přibližně pětatřicet let (což mělo v dobovém nazírání k mládí daleko), jeden z mužských protagonistů ji právem označuje za „nejznámější koketu v Anglii“… Jako by už věděl, že se jeho odsudek brzy změní v okouzlení. Lady Susan dychtí po obdivu mužů a závisti žen, stejně jako po bohatství a společenském postavení; touží však také po lásce a vášni. Jednačtyřicet dopisů z mistrného pera Jane Austenové popisuje z různých úhlů pohledu – což je umožněno střídáním pisatelů a adresátů – intriky, flirt, zbožnění, radost i soužení. Autorka sama neměla v lásce štěstí, zůstala neprovdána – a snad i díky tomu se stala natolik vnímavou pozorovatelkou lidských duší, že její líčení okamžiků lásky a nenávisti čteme se zatajeným dechem a rozechvělým srdcem. A navíc je tato novela autentickým svědectvím o rodinných a společenských poutech, která se rodí – a zanikají – v hekticky žijícím Londýně i v jen zdánlivém bezčasí šlechtických sídel.

eBook: Není pochyb o tom, že hrdinkou románu Pýcha a předsudek, Lízinkou, je sama Jane Austenová (1775–1817). Přestože prožila tak typicky nekonfliktní život (nikdy se neprovdala a jediné nabídnutí k sňatku prý během hodiny odmítla), neodráží se v jejím díle žádná osudová hořkost. Zdá se, že se ze své pozice dcery bez věna, a tudíž dívky bez zvláštních šancí na lepší sňatek, spíš nesmírně bavila – asi jako člověk, který v divadle sleduje zábavnou komedii. Přidáním ironického podtextu posunula románovou tvorbu ze sfér naivního realismu o několik generací dopředu. Víc než půldruhého století je doba, která dovedla pohltit stovky literárních děl, jimž se při zrodu prorokovala nesmrtelnost; a byla to díla s daleko efektnějšími a vzrušivějšími náměty než Pýcha a předsudek. Jemné kouzlo Jane Austenové má svůj stálý vděčný okruh čtenářů a každá nová generace autorčin odkaz objevuje po svém, v nových barevných odstínech a v novém lesku.

I po téměř dvou staletích překvapuje Austenová neobvyklou zápletkou, jemným humorem, skvělými dialogy i vřelostí citu. Mnohými čtenáři i kritiky je proto považována za největší autorku anglické prózy.

eBook: Vrcholné dílo geniální Jane Austenové. Ač okouzlující, bohatá a chytrá Emma Woodhousová nemá manžela, myslí si, že má mimořádný talent dávat páry dohromady a pak sledovat jejich šťastná manželství. A ačkoli ji od toho její drahý přítel pan Knightley zrazuje, nic ji nebaví víc než zaplétat se do milostných vztahů druhých. Když se však jeden z jejích dobře míněných plánů krutě zvrtne – jak pan Knightley správně předpověděl – musí Emma čelit následkům svého vměšování.

eBook: Třetí, závěrečný díl je ve znamení Emmina hledání štěstí. A to se vždy, kdy už se zdá ležet nadosah, vzdálí až do nedohledna. Croydonský lékař pan Morgan, obletovaný svými pacientkami, se snaží utrhnout květ nejkrásnější – neuvědomuje si však, že Emma přesahuje místní slečny nejen půvabem, ale i rozhledem a osobností. Na scénu vstupuje srdečný sourozenecký pár, pastor Bridge a jeho neprovdaná sestra, který Emmě pomáhá uniknout z Morganových osidel i z nelaskavého domova, jemuž vládne despotická švagrová Jane a její pragmatický, pocitům ostatních nepříliš otevřený manžel Robert, croydonský advokát a nejstarší syn zesnulého pana Watsona. A další vítané pozvání přichází od novomanželů Rosy a Williama Gordonových. Sílící kontrasty – ať už mezi šedí městských ulic a jarní přírodou v Burtonu, kam se Emma uchýlila díky pohostinnosti slečny Bridgeové, nebo mezi zaslepenou cílevědomostí Emminy sestry Margaret, jíž stačí, že přinutila „džentlmena“ Toma Musgrovea, aby se stal jejím mužem, a Emminým idealismem, jenž jako by ji vzdaloval od jejího okolí – dávají tušit, že přichází velké finále. Jeho vír odvěje masky jednotlivých aktérů, kteří se tak na scéně objevují ve své pravé podobě: lord Osborne se promění ze sobeckého mladíka v citlivého a šlechetného ochránce, jeho sestra, čerstvě provdaná lady Gordonová, a její manžel sir William Gordon zapomínají, že je nepřípustné přátelit se s „nižšími“ vrstvami, lordova matka překročí v touze stát se ženou pastora Howarda všechny společenské meze, doktor Morgan, teď už posedlý představou, že jej Emma miluje, zaplatí za svou obsesi cenu nejvyšší, Fanny Carrová odhodí škrabošku způsobné mladé dámy… Jen Emma a její láska pan Howard nemají co odhazovat, neboť jejich projevy vždy vyvěraly z opravdových citů.

eBook: Pan Watson je ovdovělý vikář s početným potomstvem – dvěma syny a čtyřmi dcerami. Nejmladší z nich, Emma, byla vychována v rodině své bohaté tety, a je tudíž vzdělanější a jemnější než její sestry Elisabeth, Margaret a Penelope. Když však ovdoví i zmíněná teta a uzavře nerovný sňatek z lásky, je Emma nucena vrátit se do otcovského domu. Setkává se tam nejen s hypochondrickým a milujícím otcem, ale i s bezuzdným hledáním manžela, jímž své okolí obtěžují Margaret a Penelope. Tíhne tedy k nejstarší sestře Elisabeth, nepříliš inteligentní, avšak upřímné a oddané zbytku rodiny. V sousedství Watsonových žije šlechtická rodina Osbornových. Emma si získá nevítanou pozornost mladého lorda Osborna, zatímco Margaret doslova pronásleduje jeho bezohledného nohsleda Toma Musgravea. Ten se ovšem předvádí spíše před její švagrovou, urozenou a snobskou Jane, která přijela k Watsonovým na návštěvu, doprovázena manželem, hrubým Emminým bratrem Robertem. Blízké okolí však není prosto ani jiných mužů, a tak můžeme sledovat austenovské zahájení velké hry, při níž autorka i její následovnice pohybují figurkami na šachovnici děje s ironií i humorem. Román Mladší sestra, jehož první díl Vám nyní přinášíme v překladu Jany Velvarské, rozepsala pod názvem The Watsons Jane Austenová. Toto dílo dokončila její neteř Catherine Austenová Hubbacková, spisovatelka a strážkyně odkazu své velké tety.

eBook: Ve druhém díle trojsvazkového románu se opět setkáváme se čtyřmi dcerami pana Watsona – nejstarší, laskavou Elizabeth, její krásnou mladší sestrou a naší titulní hrdinkou Emmou, marnivou Margaret a svéhlavou Penelopou. Po smrti svého otce, reverenda Watsona, jsou nuceny odejít ke svému bratru Robertovi a jeho nelaskavé ženě Jane do Croydonu. Penelopa a Margaret směřují ke splnění vysněného cíle – manželství – s rozhodností, jež nedbá na city jejich okolí a vlastně ani jich samých. Elizabeth posléze potkává štěstí v podobě ovdovělého Georga Millara, zatímco Emma, stále vzpomínající na pana Howarda, marně hledá únik z domu Roberta a Jane Watsonových, který se pro ni zvolna mění v rafinované vězení. Její švagrová Jane si je dobře vědoma toho, jak schopnou a hlavně levnou guvernantku pro svou dceru Žanetu v ní našla, a brání Emmě byť jen pomyslet na odchod. Ani to však nemůže zabránit mužům v Emmině okolí, aby neskládali hold její kráse a neobdivovali její intelekt. Na scénu tak vstupují nejen sir William Gordon (který ale miluje slečnu Osbornovou a posléze se stává jejím manželem), ale také směšný floutek Alfred Freemantle či prohnaný a elegantní doktor Morgan. Právě ten vymyslí ďábelskou lest, jak Emmě zlomit srdce a pak ji opustit, jak bývá v podobných případech jeho zvykem… Postavy, které jsme poznali v prvním díle – Emmin neohrabaný nápadník lord Osborne, jeho matka, jeho sestra Rosa, její přítelkyně slečna Carrová, bezohledný Tom Musgrove, jehož Margaret považuje za svého nastávajícího, tajná Emmina láska pan Howard či jeho sestra a synovec – pozorují ve druhém díle hemžení postav na scéně jaksi z povzdálí. O to víc se můžeme těšit na to, jak v závěrečné části vstoupí do děje. Zapomenout nesmíme ani na Emmě dosud neznámého bratra Sama – setkání s ním (byť při smutné příležitosti otcova skonu) jí udělá velkou radost a vynahradí jí chlad a vypočítavost staršího bratra Roberta, pod jehož ochranu se osiřelé dívky musí uchýlit. Ani Robert však není zcela bez citu… Ohlas první části románu Jane Austenové a Catherine Austenové Hubbackové nás přesvědčil v tom, že dílo velké spisovatelky, dokončené její talentovanou neteří, je stále živé.

eBook: Láska a přátelství, novela v dopisech, bývá občas zaměňována s obdobným dílem Jane Austenové: s Lady Susan. Přispívá k tomu nejen stejná literární forma, ale také film Láska a přátelství, který navzdory názvu vychází právě z Lady Susan. „Naše“ kniha, tedy Láska a přátelství, je však samostatným dílkem světoznámé autorky, pozoruhodným už tím, že je psala mezi jedenáctým a čtrnáctým rokem svého věku. Snad právě díky mládí, které bývá bezohledné, se v něm vysmála mnohým klišé romantické literatury: jmenujme jen „scény plné omdlévání“, „nečekaná zjevení dosud neznámých příbuzných“, „vznešené city versus přízemní realita“ či „povinný odpor proti rodičovskému despotismu“. Nad tím vším se vznáší nepřekonatelná ironie Jane Austenové, její břitký humor – ale také city, vášeň a láska, byť podané tak, že občas nevíme, zda se smát, či plakat. Smích je každopádně na místě, vždyť autorka psala tyto fiktivní dopisy pro pobavení rodinného kruhu; i tak ale budete líčení krásné a nesnázemi stíhané Laury číst se zatajeným dechem a neubráníte se obdivu vůči vypravěčským schopnostem mladinké Jane, která se později stala jednou z nejoblíbenějších a nejuznávanějších spisovatelek všech dob.

Sense and Sensibility is famously characterised as the story of two Dashwood sisters who embody the conflict between the oppressive nature of 'civilised' society and the human desire for romantic passion. However, there is far more to this story of two daughters made homeless by the death of their father. Elinor, 19, and Marianne, 17, initially project the opposing roles with Elinor cautious and unassuming about romantic matters, while Marianne is wild and passionate when she falls hopelessly in love with the libertine Mr Willoughby. But the lessons in love and life see the two characters develop and change with sense and sensibility needing to be compromised as a matter of survival.Written when Austen was just nineteen, this story has been read as a biographical reflection of her relationship with her own sister Cassandra, with the younger Jane being the victim of 'sensibility.' However, the novel is far more than a simple case of passion versus manners, and depicts the romantic complications of two women made highly vulnerable by the loss of their father and estate. With a raw and intense quality Austen creates a romantic masterpiece on the backdrop of a fragile social context. ABOUT THE SERIES: Alma Evergreens is a series of popular classics.

HarperCollins is proud to present its range of best-loved, essential classics. 'Oh! Mama, how spiritless, how tame was Edward's manner in reading to us last night! I felt for my sister most severely. Yet she bore it with so much composure, she seemed scarcely to notice it. I could hardly keep my seat.' Spirited and impulsive, Marianne Dashwood is the complete opposite to her controlled and sensible sister, Elinor. When it comes to matters of the heart, Marianne is passionate and romantic and soon falls for the charming, but unreliable Mr Willoughby. Elinor, in contrast, copes stoically with the news that her love, Edward Ferrars is promised to another. It is through their shared experiences of love that both sisters come to learn that the key to a successful match comes from finding the perfect mixture of rationality and feeling.
