Sense and Sensibility, Jane Austen's first published novel (1811),
introduced its readers to many of the themes which would dominate
Austen's future work. On one level it is a simple story of two
sisters finding fulfilment within a society bounded by regulations
and restrictions. But on another it is a comprehensive exploration
of the moral dilemmas facing young women in the choices they have
to make about their lives. Austen writes about everyday events of
her own time with a subtlety and sensitivity unprecedented in the
English novel. This edition, first published in 2006, takes as its
copytext the second edition of 1813, which corrects some errors of
the first edition. The volume provides comprehensive explanatory
notes, an extensive critical introduction covering the context and
publication history of the work, a chronology of Austen's life and
an authoritative textual apparatus. This edition is an
indispensable resource for all scholars and readers of Austen.
