Sense and Sensibility is the first novel written by Jane Austen. It includes not only autobiographical elements but also other novels she writes. Jane Austen has only one sister named Cassandra. The connection between Jane and Kassandra is between Elinor and Marianne. Two women in the novel are similar in character and attitude to real life women. Elinor understands the intimacy of Cassandra and Jane well.
The reasons and emotions gathered many criticisms from many different criticism methods, like other Austin novels. Early comments on Sense and Sensibility focused on novels and provided an action course (later discussed by many critics) and an explanatory role. A supplement of "North Rational and Emotional Critical Edition" edited by Claudia Johnson contains many early reposting comments. "Bearer commentary" in the critique commentary of February 1812 praised reason and sensibility, a realistic and very comfortable plot drawn with well-supported and depicted letters, this review is from Dashwood's Praising my sister's mothers Dashwood and Eleanor, Marianne 's extreme sensitivity sensitizes her to misery.
This article introduces domestic and foreign studies on rationality and emotion and then discusses the battle of Dashwood sisters according to their different personality. In addition, we will try to analyze feelings and emotions through the actual situation and the social context of writer Jane Austen. Finally, this article mainly shows how emotions conquer sensitivity. Since Austin 's nephew James E Austin' s memoir by Jane Austen Jane Austen and her novels have been widely researched and published in 1870. There are many studies on reason and emotion. For example, John Wiltshire analyzes Austin 's novel' s cultural meaning from the perspective of sex and psychology (Zhang Qun, 2008) and introduces Austin 's six novels including sensitivity and emotion. She thinks that contrast between emotion and sensitivity is integrated internally.
Many of the analyzes focus on Jane Austen's novels. When literary critics and art critics study reason and emotion, they always wonder whether emotions dominate sensibility. There is a complicated relationship between emotion and sensibility. By reading this novelist, the reader will find the sense or sensitivity of Austin on the surface. But if the reader learns more about the heroes Eleanor and Marianne, Austin tries to combine emotions and sensibilities, and the senses try to even dominate the sensibility.
