Sense and sensibility
- 1. Sense and Sensibility By Jane Austen Conflict between Classicism and Romanticism
- 2. Characteristics Classicism • Age of reason and prose • Rational and logic • Dominance of materialism • Objective • Standard view of human nature Romanticism • Age of poetry • Shift from intellect to imagination • Liberty of thoughts • Subjective • Expression of emotions
- 3. Two main Protagonists Elinor Dashwood • Exemplify the neo-classical era • Represent sense • Logical and reasonable • thoughtfulness • Concealing everything • Succeed in choosing right partner Marianne Dashwood • Exemplify the romantic era • Represent sensibility • Too emotional • Unthinking action • Revealing everything • Fails in relationship
- 4. Elinor Dashwood • Moral centre of the novel • Her character based on authors older sister Cassandra Austen • She knows how to govern her feelings in better way • Aware of the demands of society • More prepared to compromise • Willingness to control the desires of her own heart • Married to Edward
- 5. Marianne Dashwood • Embraces spontaneity • Excessive sensibility • Love of nature • Romantic Idealism • Learns to accept fate from her elder sister • Married to Colonel Brandon
- 6. Conclusion As because this novel was written during the transitional period, it combines both the ages, Neo-classicism and Romanticism and Austen perfectly represent both the ages through the characters. However Austen gives more importance to sense over sensibility, but in real life both the elements are important and we have to keep balance between them.
