Love and Freindship And Other Early Works (Classic Reprint)
Love and Freindship And Other Early Works - Classic Reprint Author:Jane Austen Jane Austen a lady was expected to faint when she received a proposal. To those who happen to have read any of the works of Jane A usten, the connection of ideas will appear slightly comic. Elizabeth Bennett, for instance, received two proposals from two very confident and even masterful admirers; and she certainly did not faint. It would be nea... more »rer the truth to say that they did. But in any case it may be amusing to those who are thus amused, and perhaps even instructive to those who thus need to be instructed, to know that the earliest work of Jane A usten, here published for the first time, might be called a satire on the fable of the fainting lady. Beware of fainting fits ... though at times they may be refreshing and agreable yet believe me they will in the end, if too often repeated and at improper seasons, prove destructive to your Constitution.
