Sense and Sensibility » Sense and Sensibility

In SENSE AND SENSIBILITY, Jane Austen writes about two ways of looking at the world in the personalities of two sisters, Elinor the determinedly practical and Marianne the madly romantic. Forced to live in reduced circumstances with their widowed mother and younger sister, the Dashwood girls must rely on marrying well if they are to survive in the world, and the way in which this goal is eventually accomplished provides the plot of this delightful novel, the first of Jane Austen's to be published (1811). As SENSE AND SENSIBILITY progresses to the requisite happy ending, Elinor and Marianne and their suitors are subjected to a volley of misunderstandings, jealousies, and manipulations--and to Jane Austen's mercilessly satirical look at provincial life. As she herself stated, Three or four families in a country village is the very thing to work on--and in doing so, Austen perfected the comedy of manners, zeroing in on her characters and their relationship to the society in which they live--an achievement that brought her closer to the later novels of the Victorian era and the 20th century than to those that preceded her.

The Sacred Wood and Major Early Essays » The Sacred Wood and Major Early Essays

Eliot was an influential critic; his criticism illuminated both the work of his literary predecessors and his own poetic aims--particularly his 1919 essay,
Tradition and the Individual Talent , in which he stresses the importance and vitality of the artistic continuum and claims that it is poetry itself, and not the life of the poet, that matters. He fervently believed that it is essential for poets to reunite the two strands of human experience--rationality and emotion--which had, he felt, been dissociated in English poetry since the time of Donne and other 17th-century poets. Essentially a conservative thinker, Eliot disliked eccentricity and rebellion--though, paradoxically, his own poetry represents a profound break from the past and has often been called obscure. Despite his rigidity and insistence on formalism, Eliot`s criticism--like his poetry--has been far-reaching in its effects on 20th-century art and thought.
