Sense and Sensibility About?Jane Austen English writer, who first gave the novel its modern character through the treatment of everyday life 第一个现实地描绘日常平凡生活中平凡人物的小说家 As the popularity with time flying , Austen can have a seat with Shakespeare 随着时光的飞逝，奥斯汀和莎士比亚有着同样的地位 Virginia Woolf called Austen “the most perfect artist among women ” 弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫 称奥斯丁为“最完美的女性艺术家 ” She was born on December 16, 1775, in Steven ton, Hampshire, where her father, Rev. George Austen, was a rector 她是出生于1775年12月16日，新罕布什尔州的史蒂文顿，她的父亲，乔治奥斯丁，是一个牧师 She was the second daughter and seventh child 她是家里的第二个女儿和第七个孩子 She never married 她从未结过婚 She starter to write for family amusement as a child. Her earliest-known writings date from about 1787 她开始写作是孩童时代家庭娱乐而已，最早的作品大约在1787年 Due to the poor health, she died on July 18, 1817 in Winchester and buried in Winchester Cathedral 由于身体不好，1817年7月18日她在温切斯特去世，并葬于温彻斯特大教堂 Background 奥斯汀生活在18、19世纪之交，正是英国文化从理性主义向浪漫主义过渡之期，在很多方面她都深受18世纪思想的感染，然而她又接受19世纪的挑战，而在奥斯汀的作品中，“理性”与“情感”是永恒的，矛盾统一的主题，二者既统一又对立。在她的前期作品中注重理性的力量，而在后期作品里，浪漫主义给她的女主角带来巨大的活力与鲜明的个性，这些都折射出作家奥斯汀在英国历史交替之时复杂而矛盾的心理。理性与感性二者并存，显示了奥斯汀思想文化的变化。在这一点上，奥斯汀表现了她作为十八世纪十九世纪之交文学时代承前启后的作家的矛盾与特色。 Plot Introduction The story concerns two sister, Elinor and Marinne Dashwood.
