Fanny Price--the story's meek, determinedly moral protagonist--is almost too good to love. Is she admirable, or (as Austen's own mother declared) \"insipid\"? Is her uncle, Sir Thomas Bertram, a warm benefactor or a stifling tyrant? In her introduction and annotations, Deidre Shauna Lynch suggests Austen's intentions were to highlight, not to downplay, these ambiguities; in fact, they may be central to appreciating \u003ci\u003eMansfield Park\u003c\/i\u003e.

This generosity comes as a cost: with the exception of Edmund, Fanny's relations treat her with scorn. Content to suffer in silence, she may frustrate readers, or even be mistaken for a satirical figure. But Austen rewards Fanny's steadfast heart with a happy ending. When the wealthy bachelor Henry (who is having an affair with the married Maria) schemes to win Fanny's affections, she rejects him time and again. Edmund, realizing his love for Fanny, recognizes that she is a canny reader of character--judging others for their actions, not their words.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 544\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 x 9.6 x 9.3 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 31, 2016\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuiz Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mansfield Park\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upper Grades, 9-12\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/strong\u003e 35\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50329802113261,"sku":"9780674058101","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/8918\/9441\/files\/maQJGFFhFY9780674058101.webp?v=1784915856","url":"https:\/\/www.webster.direct\/en-au\/products\/mansfield-park-an-annotated-edition-hardcover","provider":"Webster.Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
