Synopsis "Emma (in English)"

This novel is essentially a story of how Emma matures from a clever young woman to a more modest and considerate woman, who finally adorns the idea of love after ignoring it for the longest time. Emma being the privileged daughter of a wealthy gentleman was accustomed to "having her own way" and cursed with a "disposition to think a little too well of herself". Jane Austen's remarkable writing style and development of character builds the suspense throughout the novel as she describes the intricate details about the English society back then. In this book she lays extreme emphasis on the materialistic gains, inheritance and social class. Emma's efficacious journey makes it the most unprecedented romance novel of all time. Jane Austen one of the most renowned English author, completed just six novels during her time and yet manages to command a legion of fans around the world. Her timeless stories have been turned into movies, television shows, and modern adaptations in addition to being translated into multiple languages to cross cultural boundaries. She is still regarded as one the biggest literary figures of all times who is universally acknowledged for her most enduring romance novels.
Jane Austen

View Author's Page
Fue una novelista británica que vivió durante la época georgiana. Nació en la rectoría de Steventon (Hampshire). Su familia pertenecía a la gentry británica (nobleza rural o burguesía agraria), contexto del que no salió y en el que sitúa todas sus obras, siempre en torno al matrimonio de su protagonista.

Ha sido llevada al cine en numerosas ocasiones, algunas veces reproducidas de forma fiel, como el clásico Más fuerte que el orgullo de 1940 dirigido por Robert Z. Leonard y protagonizada por Greer Garson y Laurence Olivier y en otras haciendo adaptaciones a la época actual, como es el caso de Clueless, adaptación libre de Emma. Otras versiones son la de Sentido y sensibilidad, de 1995; Mansfield Park, de 2000, y las de Orgullo y prejuicio en 2004 (dirigida por Gurinder Chadha) y en 2005 (dirigida por Joe Wright). Sin embargo, la versión más fiel y perfecta que hasta ahora se ha hecho del libro de Orgullo y prejuicio es la serie que presentó la BBC protagonizada por Colin Firth y Jennifer Ehle. El interés que la obra de Jane Austen sigue despertando hoy en día muestra la vigencia de su pensamiento y la influencia que ha tenido en la literatura posterior. Su vida también ha sido llevada al cine con la película Becoming Jane (2007).
