Synopsis "SENSATEZ Y SENTIMIENTOS -GRAN. LIT.- (in Spanish)"

Jane Austen proveniente de una sociedad ultraconservadora, previa a la época victoriana, se decidió a escribir novelas y demostró una voluntad por romper los moldes que han oprimido a la mujer. Sus obras abordan temas en apariencia superficiales, pero en el fondo son una crítica a los convencionalismos. En Sensatez y sentimientos, publicada en 1811, la sociedad patriarcal que imperaba en Inglaterra provoca que la señora Dashwood y sus tres hijas queden empobrecidas, pues tras la muerte de su marido el patrimonio familiar pasará al medio hermano de las muchachas, hijo de un primer matrimonio. A partir de este hecho se desarrollará una intrincada serie de acontecimientos donde los compromisos entre las parejas oscilarán entre la atracción, el amor y la conveniencia por encontrar el mejor partido. En esta novela lo importante no es si se da o no un final feliz, sino la descripción de la sociedad en el testimonio que deja cada personaje.

She was a British novelist who lived during the Georgian era. She was born in the rectory of Steventon (Hampshire). Her family belonged to the British gentry (rural nobility or agrarian bourgeoisie), a context she never left and in which she set all her works, always revolving around the marriage of her protagonist.

She has been portrayed in cinema on numerous occasions, sometimes faithfully reproduced, like the 1940 classic Pride and Prejudice directed by Robert Z. Leonard and starring Greer Garson and Laurence Olivier, and other times adapted to modern times, as is the case with Clueless, a loose adaptation of Emma. Other versions include Sense and Sensibility from 1995; Mansfield Park from 2000; and Pride and Prejudice in 2004 (directed by Gurinder Chadha) and in 2005 (directed by Joe Wright). However, the most faithful and perfect version of the book Pride and Prejudice to date is the series presented by the BBC starring Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle. The interest that Jane Austen's work continues to arouse today shows the relevance of her thought and the influence she has had on subsequent literature. Her life has also been portrayed in film with the movie Becoming Jane (2007)
