Emma is a novel by the wife of English letters Jane Austen published anonymously (A Novel. By the author of Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice) in December 1815 This is a novel of manners, which, through the sneering description attempted heroin to meet singles around him the ideal spouse, painted with humor the lives and problems of the wealthy class in the provincial Regency. Emma is seen by some as austeniens his most accomplished work. Considered by Sir Walter Scott as a harbinger of a new kind of more realistic novel, Emma first disconcerted his contemporaries by the detailed description of a small provincial town where not much happens outside events the daily life of the community. Another essential aspect is the bildungsroman, learning life by Emma herself, who despite his quick wit, barely as understanding the feelings of others and his own. Other aspects of the novel, later identified may also surprise, such as the character of whodunit without murder that only a thorough proofreading can appreciate fully. Emma has been translated into several French, the first just a year after its publication in England. After an oversight a hundred years, the novel is serialized in Hansard in 1910; as so often in the French translations of Jane Austen's irony and the author's own second degree is affadissent in adaptation that is made. The work has since been regularly published in French, in translation-adaptation more or less faithful.
