内容記述 | In Austen's last completed novel, Persuasion (1817), the heroine's journey is closely integrated into the context of huge social upheaval in the early nineteenth century, from the traditional ruling class to the newly emerging class. Through her physical mobility from Kellynch Hall, the traditional gentleman's house, to Uppercross, Lyme and Bath, Anne experiences what is noted as the gradual alteration from "prudence" to "romance." My reading in this essay focuses on Anne's mental development with special reference to the perspective of "elasticity of mind." The word "elasticity," though it literally means the power of material substances that spontaneously recovers their original shape, figuratively indicates human character of "energy, vigour, buoyancy of mind or character, capacity for resisting or overcoming depression." (OED2) Interestingly, what is connoted by this phraseology not only has a great impact on Anne's mind, but also epitomizes the essential traits that all Austen's heroines, whether active or quiet, have in common. They bounce back from difficulties by their own liveliness, energy, and resilience, as contrasted with the heroines in the sentimental novels with patience, resignation and submission.Accordingly, this essay demonstrates, first, how "elasticity of mind" is used in this novel; second, how it is related to the formation of a new female image at the turn of the century, including Austen's other novels, Northanger Abbey (1817) and Pride and Prejudice (1813); and lastly how it clarifies Anne's feministic aspects which inherit the idea of Wollstonecraft. | |||||
