Sense_&_Sensibility

Sense & Sensibility In Sense and Sensibility, Jane Austen takes a look at the rules of love, courtship, and marriage during the Regency. Through the trials and tribulations of Elinor, Marianne, Edward, Lucy, Willoughby, and Young Elizabeth, Ms. Austen satirizes the rules that govern love and all that encompasses it. Through Sense and Sensibility, one gets the sense that the Regency is characterized by rules that make love non-existent. To perpetuate this feeling even more, one can look to the author herself, who was never married. Sense and Sensibility, is the story of two sisters searching for love and all the happiness that accompanies it. The difference between the two sisters is that one of them follows society’s rules, while the other follows her heart. Elinor knows her place in society and is in search of a calm tasteful life, while Marianne is outspoken and looking for a life filled with adventure. When it comes to love though, they have something in common, nothing goes as planned. The realm of love is full of surprises and disappointments galore, and when the rules of the Regency are imposed upon this realm very little good comes of it.
