Synopsis "Emma (in Spanish)"

Esta nueva traducción del texto íntegro de la primera edición de 1868, con el añadido de muchos párrafos que se suprimieron en las versiones posteriores, incluye también la segunda parte de la historia.Esta nueva traducción del texto íntegro de la primera edición de 1868, con el añadido de muchos párrafos que se suprimieron en las versiones posteriores, incluye también la segunda parte de la historia, que la autora publicó en 1869 para dar respuesta a las muchas cartas de los lectores, interesados en saber cuál sería el destino de las hermanas March. Han pasado casi ciento cincuenta años desde aquel lejano 1868, pero la complicidad de Meg, Beth, Amy y Jo con las demás mujeres no ha muerto. Es más, autoras de la talla de Simone de Beauvoir y Joyce Carol Oates han sido admiradoras entusiastas de esas mujercitas que en sus gestos y palabras resumen el espíritu crítico de una época y aún hoy pueden regalarnos unas hermosas horas de lectura.

View Author's Page

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)
