Mansfield Park (Collectable Classics - gold edge)

6e, Jane Austen Description Mansfield Park is a novel by Jane Austen that follows Fanny Price, a poor girl sent to live with her wealthy relatives at the Mansfield Park estate. Unlike Austen’s more outspoken heroines, Fanny is quiet, observant, and morally steadfast. As she grows up among her privileged cousins, Fanny often feels overlooked and undervalued. The story centers on family dynamics, social class, and moral integrity, especially when the Bertram family becomes involved in staging a play that leads to emotional and ethical complications. Fanny ultimately stands firm in her principles despite pressure to conform, and her quiet strength is eventually recognized. The novel explores themes of virtue, social ambition, and the contrast between appearance and true character. Notes NEW
