Jane Austen was an English novelist best known for her novels criticising the social institutions of her time, such as marriage and wealth.
‘Persuasion’, one of her masterpieces, was published posthumously in 1817. Unlike her novel ‘Northanger Abbey’, with which it was published, ‘Persuasion’ is a work of Austen’s maturity. Like her best works, ‘Mansfield Park’ and ‘Emma’, it contains subdued satire and develops the comedy of character and manners.
‘Persuasion’ tells the story of a second chance, the reawakening of love between Anne Elliot and Captain Frederick Wentworth, whom eight years earlier she had been persuaded not to marry. Wentworth returns from the Napoleonic Wars with prize money and the social acceptability of naval rank. He is now an eligible suitor, acceptable to Anne’s snobbish father and his circle, and Anne discovers the continuing strength of her love for him.
