Publisher Description: Mansfield Park is the third published novel by Jane Austen, first published in 1814. The novel tells the story of Fanny Price. She is still a girl when her uncles take her to her mansion in Mansfield Park, rescuing her from a life of difficulties and needs. There, before his frightened look, will parade a world of leisure and refinement in which the innocent amusements will feed machinations and seduction strategies. That world hides a dangerous truth and only Fanny, from its submissive silence, will be able to glimpse its consequences and threats. Mansfield Park recreates a familiar and social order that unravels and deceptively restores itself through the ambiguous eyes of a young girl who has been assigned the fate and destiny of a Cinderella. Published in 1814, Mansfield Park is probably the most dense and complex novel of the author, a prodigy of narrative architecture and psychological depth. |
