Pages : 236
Book Description
Mr. Bingley leaves Hertfordshire after his ball, throwing the Bennet family into turmoil and Jane Bennet into despair. Sensing an opportunity, Mr. Collins capitalizes on this event to stoke Mrs. Bennet’s fears in his attempt to force Elizabeth Bennet’s hand and provoke her to accept him, but Elizabeth remains firm in her convictions. Into this strained situation, gossip reveals that Netherfield Park is to be opened again, but instead of the expected Mr. Bingley, the resident at the estate is soon revealed to be none other than Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy. Elizabeth does not appreciate Mr. Darcy, for his slight of her and the stories from Mr. Wickham have left her in a state of festering disapproval and disdain for the gentleman from the north. The gentleman proposes to her, leading to Elizabeth’s acrimonious refusal, but she soon realizes her opinion of Mr. Darcy is amiss when he explains certain facts of Mr. Wickham’s history and acts to bring Mr. Bingley back to Hertfordshire. Though Elizabeth is uncertain of the wisdom of allowing him any hope, she allows Mr. Darcy to call on her, determined to learn more about the enigmatic gentleman. Yet Mr. Collins has not abandoned his hope. A man so ineffectual as he is no temptation for Elizabeth, and he just may yet be of some use to her, for there is no comparison between a silly parson and a gentleman such as Mr. Darcy . . .

Adapting Gaskell
Author: Loredana Salis
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1443853356
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
“This book offers a range of perspectives on Elizabeth Gaskell and adaptation. The contributors – Alan Shelston, Raffaella Antinucci, Thomas Recchio, Brenda McKay, Katherine Byrne, Patricia Marchesi, Marcia Marchesi and Loredana Salis – discuss the afterlives of Gaskell’s fiction, from the author as adaptor of her own work to the role of the BBC in re-inventing Gaskell’s narratives. Loredana Salis is to be congratulated for bringing together a collection that tackles the remediation of Gaskell’s fiction from Gaskell’s own time to the 21st century, enabling her to join those authors, most prominently, Shakespeare, Austen and Dickens, who have received full-length book studies on adaptations of their work. The collection, as a whole, seems to confirm the notion that since the inception of film, the number of adaptations of an author’s work equates to the writer’s canonical status. No doubt, this book will prompt many more investigations into the adaptability of Elizabeth Gaskell’s fiction.” – Deborah Cartmell, De Montfort University, Leicester
