內容簡介
《愛瑪》是英國女作傢簡·奧斯汀較有影響的長篇小說,是她作品中藝術上思想上最成熟的一部。小說主人公愛瑪是個美麗聰明的地主小姐,喜歡與人作媒。她在無聊之中把鄰近的一個孤女哈麗埃特置於自己的保護之下,主觀臆想地安排她的戀愛。哈麗埃特很隨和地一次又一次“愛”上瞭愛瑪給她選擇的“求婚者”。最後在愛瑪的不負責的慫恿下,竟自以為“愛”上瞭本地最大的地主兼地方官奈特利先生,這時愛瑪纔猛然發現原來自己是愛奈特利先生的,最後兩人都找到瞭與自己相匹配的伴侶。作者在小說中,已把愛情、婚姻與財産、社會地位聯係起來。書中還穿插瞭美麗優雅的簡費爾法剋斯和愛瑪傢庭女教師泰勒小姐的繼子,富傢子弟弗蘭剋丘吉爾的婚戀故事。小說現實主義成分增多,戲劇成分減少,結構精微巧妙,喜劇氣氛彌漫全書,趣味橫生。

精彩書摘
Emma made no answer, ana tneo to loOK cneertully uncon-cemea, DUtwas really feeling uncomfortable and wanting him very much to be gone.She did not repent what she had done; she still thought herself a betterjudge of such a point of female right and refinement than he could be; butyet she had a sort of habitual respect for his judgment in general, whichmade her dislike having it so loudly against her; and to have him sittingjust opposite to her in angry state, was very disagreeable. Some minutespassed in this unpleasant silence, with only one attempt on Emmas side totalk of the weather, but he made no answer. He was thinking. The result ofhis thoughts appeared at last in these words.
"Robert Martin has no great loss——if he can but think so; and I hope itwill not be long before he does. Your views for Harriet are best known toyourself; but as you make no secret of your love of match-making, it is fairto suppose that views, and plans, and projects you have;——and as a friend Ishall just hint to you that if Elton is the man, I think it will be all labour invain."
Emma laughed and disclaimed. He continued,
"Depend upon it, Elton will not do. Elton is a very good sort of man,and a very respectable vicar of Highbury, but not at all likely to make animprudent match. He knows the value of a good income as well as anybody. Elton may talk sentimentally, but he will act rationally. He is as wellacquainted with his own claims, as you can be with Harriets. He knowsthat he is a very handsome young man, and a great favourite whereverhe goes; and from his general way of talking in unreserved moments,when there are only men present, I am convinced that he does not meanto throw himself away. I have heard him speak with great animation of alarge family of young ladies that his sisters are intimate with, who have alltwenty thousand pounds apiece."
"I am very.much obliged to you," said Emma, laughing again. "If I hadset my heart on Mr. Eltons marrying Harriet, it would have been very kindto open my eyes; but at present I only want to keep Harriet to myself. Ihave done with match-making indeed. I could never hope to equal my owndoings at Randalls. I shall leave off while I am well."
