Gevoel en Verstand (Golden Deer Classics)

Description

Sense and Sensibility (Gevoel en verstand) is de eerste, in 1811 anoniem uitgegeven roman van de Engelse schrijfster Jane Austen. Het verhaal is gebaseerd op de briefroman Elinor and Marianne die ze in 1794, op 19-jarige leeftijd, schreef. Het vertelt het verhaal van de zusters Dashwood, Elinor en Marianne. In het boek beschrijft Austen een milieu (Engelse landadel) waarin niet alleen vrouwen, maar ook mannen het slachtoffer kunnen zijn van regels over familiebanden, eigendommen en het huwelijk. De titel verwijst naar de verschillende wijze waarop de hoofdpersonages tegen hun situatie aankijken: Elinor Dashwood baseert zich op gezond verstand (sense) en haar jongere zus Marianne gaat in eerste instantie meer uit van haar gevoel (sensibility).
