《愛瑪:EMMA(英文原版)》簡·奧斯汀的代錶作,書中沒有驚險駭人的情節,也沒有聳人聽聞的描述,但從其娓娓道來、令人陶醉的敘述中,在謎一般的情節中,在對人物性格和心理細緻入微的刻畫中,讀者麵前仿佛展開瞭一幅優美而略帶誇張的生動畫捲。我們好像能看到故事中人物的形象和行為,能感覺到人物的喜悅和憂愁,當時英國社會的林林總總仿佛由讀者親身所經曆。本書為英文原版,同時提供配套英文朗讀免費下載,讓讀者在閱讀精彩故事的同時,亦能提升英文閱讀水平。
《愛瑪:EMMA(英文原版)》,英國女作傢簡·奧斯汀較有影響的長篇小說,創作於1815年,是奧斯汀作品中藝術上、思想上非常成熟的一部。主人公愛瑪是個美麗、聰慧而富有的姑娘,同時也是一位不摺不扣的幻想傢。她熱心關注身邊的浪漫故事,卻又固執地認為自己永遠不會陷入其中。她自作主張為孤女哈麗埃特導演瞭一次又一次的戀愛。當哈麗埃特誤以為自己愛上瞭地方官奈特利先生時,愛瑪纔驚覺原來自己也在愛著奈特利先生。這雖與她一開始就宣布的終身不嫁的誓言有悖,但墜入情網的她不得不放棄自己天真的誓言。該作品多次被搬上銀幕。本書為英文原版,同時提供配套英文朗讀免費下載,讓讀者在閱讀精彩故事的同時,亦能提升英文閱讀水平。
Emma is a novel published in 1815 and written by English author Jane Austen. It was the last of Austen’s books to be published before the author died at the age of 41. While Pride and Prejudice is her most famous novel, many critics argue that Emma is Austen’s best. This is the story of Emma Woodhouse, a young, witty and wealthy woman who takes an interest in matchmaking and instead makes a mess. It is a comedy of manners that allows the reader to gain a deep understanding of Ms. Woodhouse and her world.
Though today Jane Austen is said to be one of the greatest English authors of all time, she was not recognized as such during her life. Most of her novels were published anonymously until after her death in 1817. Emma has been republished many times and adapted into plays, miniseries and films.
Jane Austen’s novels have been continuously in print since 1833. She is the only author that all students in England, Wales and Northern Ireland are required to study.
簡·奧斯汀(1775-1817年),英國著名女作傢。她的作品主要關注鄉紳傢庭女性的婚姻和生活,以女性特有的細緻入微的觀察力和活潑風趣的文字真實地描繪瞭她周圍世界的小天地。奧斯汀20歲左右開始寫作,一生共發錶瞭6部長篇小說,分彆是《理智與隋感》、《傲慢與偏見》、《曼斯菲爾德莊園》、《愛瑪》、《諾桑覺寺》和《勸導》。奧斯汀的小說齣現在19世紀初,一掃風行一時的假浪漫主義潮流,繼承和發展瞭英國18世紀優秀的現實主義傳統,為19世紀現實主義小說的高潮做瞭準備。她是世界上為數不多的著名女性作傢之一,是介於新古典主義和浪漫運動的抒情主義之間的“小幅畫傢”和“傢庭小說傢”,文學評論傢眼裏在不朽性方麵勘與莎士比亞相提並論的英國作傢。

CHAPTER 1
Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable home and happy disposition, seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence; and had lived nearly twenty-one years in the world with very little to distress or vex her.
She was the youngest of the two daughters of a most affectionate, indulgent father; and had, in consequence of her sister’s marriage, been mistress of his house from a very early period. Her mother had died too long ago for her to have more than an indistinct remembrance of her caresses; and her place had been supplied by an excellent woman as governess, who had fallen little short of a mother in affection.
Sixteen years had Miss Taylor been in Mr. Woodhouse’s family, less as a governess than a friend, very fond of both daughters, but particularly of Emma. Between them it was more the intimacy of sisters. Even before Miss Taylor had ceased to hold the nominal office of governess, the mildness of her temper had hardly allowed her to impose any restraint; and the shadow of authority being now long passed away, they had been living together as friend and friend very mutually attached, and Emma doing just what she liked; highly esteeming Miss Taylor’s judgment, but directed chiefly by her own.
The real evils, indeed, of Emma’s situation were the power of having rather too much her own way, and a disposition to think a little too well of herself; these were the disadvantages which threatened alloy to her many enjoyments. The danger, however, was at present so unperceived, that they did not by any means rank as misfortunes with her.
Sorrow came—a gentle sorrow—but not at all in the shape of any disagreeable consciousness. —Miss Taylor married. It was Miss Taylor’s loss which first brought grief. It was on the weddingday of this beloved friend that Emma first sat in mournful thought of any continuance. The wedding over, and the bridepeople gone, her father and herself were left to dine together, with no prospect of a third to cheer a long evening. Her father composed himself to sleep after dinner, as usual, and she had then only to sit and think of what she had lost.
The event had every promise of happiness for her friend. Mr. Weston was a man of unexceptionable character, easy fortune, suitable age, and pleasant manners; and there was some satisfaction in considering with what self-denying, generous friendship she had always wished and promoted the match; but it was a black morning’s work for her. The want of Miss Taylor would be felt every hour of every day. She recalled her past kindness—the kindness, the affection of sixteen years—how she had taught and how she had played with her from five years
old—how she had devoted all her powers to attach and amuse her in health—and how nursed her through the various illnesses of childhood. A large debt of gratitude was owing here; but the intercourse of the last seven years, the equal footing and perfect unreserve which had soon followed Isabella’s marriage, on their being left to each other, was yet a dearer, tenderer recollection. It had been a friend and companion such as few possessed: intelligent, well-informed, useful, gentle, knowing all the ways of the family, interested in all its concerns, and peculiarly interested in herself, in every pleasure, every scheme of hers—one to whom she could speak every thought as it arose, and who had such an affection for her as could never find fault.
How was she to bear the change? It was true that her friend was going only half a mile from them; but Emma was aware that great must be the difference between a Mrs. Weston, only half a mile from them, and a Miss Taylor in the house; and with all her advantages, natural and domestic, she was now in great danger of suffering from intellectual solitude. She dearly loved her father, but he was no companion for her. He could not meet her in conversation, rational or playful.
The evil of the actual disparity in their ages (and Mr. Woodhouse had not married early) was much increased by his constitution and habits; for having been a valetudinarian all his life, without activity of mind or body, he was a much older man in ways than in years; and though everywhere beloved for the friendliness of his heart and his amiable temper, his talents could not have recommended him at any time.
Her sister, though comparatively but little removed by matrimony, being settled in London, only sixteen miles off, was much beyond her daily reach; and many a long October and November evening must be struggled through at Hartfield, before Christmas brought the next visit from Isabella and her husband, and their little children, to fill the house, and give her pleasant society again.
Highbury, the large and populous village, almost amounting to a town, to which Hartfield, in spite of its separate lawn, and shrubberies, and name, did really belong, afforded her no equals. The Woodhouses were first in consequence there. All looked up to them. She had many acquaintance in the place, for her father was universally civil, but not one among them who could be accepted in lieu of Miss Taylor for even half a day. It was a melancholy change; and Emma could not but sigh over it, and wish for impossible things, till her father awoke, and made it necessary to be cheerful. His spirits required support. He was a nervous man, easily depressed; fond of every body that he was used to, and hating to part with them; hating change of every kind.
