Synopsis "Persuasion (in Spanish)"

Walter Elliot, nacido el 1 de marzo de 1760, contrajo matrimonio en 15 de julio de 1784 con Isabel, hija de Jaime Stevenson, hidalgo de South Park, en el condado de Gloucester. De esta señora, fallecida en 1800, tuvo a Isabel, nacida el 1 de junio de 1785; a Ana, nacida el 9 de agosto de 1787; a un hijo nonato, el 5 de noviembre de 1789, y a María, nacida el 20 de noviembre de 1791. Tal era el párrafo original salido de manos del impresor; pero Sr Walter lo había mejorado, añadiendo, para información propia y de su familia, las siguientes palabras después de la fecha del natalicio de María: "Casada el 16 de diciembre de 1810 con Carlos, hijo y heredero de Carlos Musgrove, hidalgo de Uppercross, en el condado de Somerset". Apuntó también con el mayor cuidado el día y el mes en que perdiera a su esposa.

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)
