Synopsis "Sentido y sensibilidad (in Spanish)"

Tras la muerte repentina del padre, la familia Dashwood queda desamparada. La novela sigue los avatares de esta familia, orientando la atención especialmente hacia las peripecias de sus dos hermanas mayores, que encarnan posturas vitales diametralmente opuestas: Si Elinor representa el sentido común y la razón, Marianne actúa impulsada por el sentimiento y la emoción. Los escollos que estas dos muchachas casaderas han de salvar en sus desventuras amorosas les enseñan que quizás un virtuoso equilibrio entre ambas actitudes es la única forma de salvarse. Sentido y Sensibilidad, la primera novela que Austen publicó, esboza un retrato fidedigno de la situación de la mujer a finales del siglo XVIII.

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)
