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. Review: Classic - Wonderful classic work Review: Gifted. - Was a gift. They liked it.

Good edition of this classic
Good introductory piece. Very readable text (compared with a different unreadable edition that was previously purchased). If you want some Jane Austin then this edition is for you.

Great reading
It was my first time reading Jane Austin, this one is very easy to read after the first 50 pages. Enjoying my time speaking in old fashion english.

Excelente para profundizar en la obra de Jane Austen
Una obra clásica más cercana a nuestra realidad contemporánea. Ciertamente más seria y dramática que otras obras de Austen, con mayor complejidad en los personajes en su análisis moral y psicológico.

Super Ausgabe zum super Preis
Inhaltlich finde ich auch Mansfield Park sehr gelungen und zähle es zu meinen Lieblingen. Deshalb habe ich mir diese Buch zusätzlich zu meiner Gesamtausgabe geleistet. In dieser Rezension will ich mich also auf Mansfield Park in der Wordsworth Collection beziehen. Diese ist eine sehr günstige Ausgabe (2,80€) mit 384 Seiten, die qualitativ sehr von einer amerikanischen Taschenbuchausgabe zeugen, allerdings mit relativ vielen Illustrationen von Hugh Thomson (mehr als in meiner "Literary Classics" - punktet. Außerdem gibt's noch eine Einleitung und ein paar Notizen von Ian Littlewood von der University of Sussex. In den Notizen werden Kurzformen aus Austens Zeit erklärt - z.B., dass "the box" - "der Fahrersitz" bedeutet etc. - dies geschieht natürlich alles auf Englisch. Für Austen-Freunde, die eine günstige Ausgabe für unterwegs suchen genauso ideal für Austen-"Anfänger".

Livro parece frágil
A capa é linda, mas o livro tem um aspecto bastante frágil (capa e folhas finas). Não tem orelha e a folha não chega a ser tipo jornal, mas é quase.

a classic
I first read this novel thirty years ago and had forgotten so much about it. I was really glad I re-discovered it. It is an elegant, romantic story which ends 'happily ever after'.
