The guests (including millions of readers and viewers) wish the two happy couples health and happiness. As the music swells and the credits roll, two things are certain: Jane and Bingley will want for nothing, while Elizabeth and Darcy are to be the happiest couple in the world! The couples' personal stories of love, marriage, money, and children are woven together with the threads of social and political history of nineteenth century England. As changes in industry and agriculture affect the people of Pemberley and the neighboring countryside, the Darcys strive to be progressive and forward-looking while upholding beloved traditions. Rebecca Ann Collins follows them in imagination, observing and chronicling their passage through the landscape of their surroundings, noting how they cope with change, triumph, and tragedy in their lives. "A lovely complementary novel to Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. Austen would surely give her smile of approval." —Beverly Wong, author of Pride & Prejudice Prudence

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La suite d'une histoire d'amour qui passionna des générations entières. En refermant le livre ou quand se termine le film Orgueil et Préjugés on se demande : Et après ? Jane Austen laissa en germe mille conflits, mille aventures dans une Angleterre en pleine mutation et dans un monde où les distances s'amenuisent au fil des années. Tout en respectant les personnages magistralement décrits par la grande dame de la littérature anglaise et même si vous n'avez pas lu son livre, l'auteur vous emmènera à Pemberley, la merveilleuse maison des Darcy où naquit une histoire d'amour qui passionna des générations. Vous verrez comment les difficultés mal enfouies se surmontent ou non, et comment les membres des générations futures seront tantôt acteurs de cette nouvelle ère qui s'ouvre à eux, tantôt victimes d'une société qui voit menacer son mode de vie ancestral. Découvrez sans plus attendre une suite du classique de la littérature anglaise Orgueil et Préjugés, imaginée par Marie-Laure Sébire ! EXTRAIT "Un soir, alors qu'ils lisaient au coin du feu, Elizabeth dit à son mari : — Mon chéri, tes appartements vont bientôt être le champ de bataille d'une armée d'artisans. Si tu désires profiter de la paix de ton foyer, il est grand temps de repartir pour Pemberley. Nous avons profité à mon avis suffisamment des plaisirs de Londres. Tu as eu la bonté de m'emmener au théâtre, de nous faire assister à quelques dîners et j'ai eu de longues conversations agréables et futiles avec les épouses de tes amis londoniens qui ont eu la grandeur d’âme de me proposer de te ruiner chez les meilleurs modistes de Londres. N’aie crainte, j'ai vaillamment résisté. J'ai donc amplement mérité des promenades dans nos bois couverts de givre. Nous pourrions profiter de notre séjour là-bas pour que madame Reynolds se mette en quête d'une femme de chambre conforme à mes désirs. Celle que tu m’as attribuée a une ombre de moustache et je la soupçonne d'être l'aînée d'une famille de garçons dans laquelle elle a acquis une autorité redoutable et une poigne non moins redoutable. Je préfère laisser le soin de ma coiffure à une jeune fille de Lambton, douce et si possible point trop jolie. Bon, cette dernière recommandation me vient d'une de tes amies londoniennes qui méconnaît ton vertueux caractère. Darcy éclata de rire et prit sa femme dans ses bras : — Connais-tu, une seule femme belle, intelligente et en plus capable d'amuser un monsieur aussi grave que moi, à part toi ?" CE QU'EN PENSE LA CRITIQUE "Chroniques de Pemberley est une suite d'Orgueil et préjugés élégante et plausible qui rend un brillant hommage à Jane Austen et je vous y invite sans modération !" - StéphanieMarcos, Babelio "J'ai adoré vivre à Pemberley pendant de longues années grâce à Marie-Laure Sébire, m'attacher aux Darcy, souffrir (oh mon dieu le chapitre 20...) et rire avec eux et sentir tout l'amour qui habite cette famille et ce lieu vraiment merveilleux." - zofiamiu, Babelio "J'ai ri, j'ai pleuré, j'ai détesté, j'ai aimé... tout cela au fil des pages, avec les personnages, ne voulant pas voir venir les dernières pages. Je le conseille grandement, à tou(te)s les admirateurs de cette merveilleuse histoire." - Kilou19, Booknode À PROPOS DE L'AUTEURE Rien ne prédisposait Marie-Laure Sébire, parisienne et juriste, à la littérature inspirée par celle du XIXème siècle anglais. Pourtant fille et sœur d'écrivains elle a, à l'intention d'une amie fan d'Orgueil et Préjugés, écrit une suite plausible et respectueuse du roman de Jane Austen, celle qu'elle aurait voulu lire. Ses livres sont d'abord publiés en Espagne où, marié à un espagnol, elle passe la moitié de l'année á Grenade.

Shy Georgiana Darcy has been content to remain unmarried, living with her brother and his new bride. But Elizabeth and Darcy's fairy-tale love reminds Georgiana daily that she has found no true love of her own. And perhaps never will, for she is convinced the one man she secretly cares for will never love her in return. Georgiana's domineering aunt, Lady Catherine de Bourgh, has determined that Georgiana shall marry, and has a list of eligible bachelors in mind. But which of the suitors are sincere, and which are merely interested in Georgiana's fortune? Georgiana must learn to trust her heart--and rely on her courage--for she also faces the return of the man who could ruin her reputation and spoil a happy ending, just when it finally lies within her grasp.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique and inspirational Pride and Prejudice sequel that will resonate with all readers who can relate to Mary Bennet's determination to live according to God's wishes Written by a Franciscan nun, this is a sympathetic tale of the middle Bennet sister from Pride and Prejudice. Pious Mary Bennet tries to do her duty in the world as she thinks God envisions it. Initially believing (mistakenly) that her sister Elizabeth married well only in order to provide for her sisters, Mary is happy to be relieved of the obligation to marry at all so that she can continue her faithful works. But she begins to have second thoughts after further studying marriage through her sisters' experiences as well as spending time with two young men. One is a splendid young buck whose determined courtship must have ulterior motives; the other is a kindly, serious young clergyman whose friendship Mary values more and more. One day she realizes that God very much made man and woman to be together...but which is the man for her?

Mr. Darcy, Elizabeth, Jane, Mr. and Mrs. Bennett, and the Wickhams all move through the story as Caroline falls in love, marries, and raises her children. Caroline rejects the role of a compliant Victorian wife and mother, instead becoming a spirited and outspoken advocate of reformist causes in spite of the danger of scandal. Caroline's advocacy of reform, undaunted by criticism, demonstrates strength in a time when a woman's role was severely restricted.

How can he let the young lady, who was understandably mortified to be discovered in such a vulnerable moment, know how much he feels for and sympathizes with her?

Book Communities of Cultural Value

Download or read book Communities of Cultural Value written by Philip Goldstein and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2001 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philip Goldstein is fast establishing himself as the doyen of 'reception study, ' a discipline that assumes that the reader's interpretive practices explain a text's import. In his latest work, Communities of Cultural Value, Goldstein delves again into the realm of literary criticism, painting an absorbing picture of the changing nature of a growing, more diversified readership and its challenge to professional literary study. Goldstein's PostMarxist approach investigates how interpretive communities govern the reader's practices, through lucid case studies that analyze the reception of texts and authors ranging from Jane Austen to John Le CarrZ. Communities of Cultural Values is an important addition to the continuing debate over art's aesthetic autonomy and the role of literary criticism in the 1990s, and it will be most valuable to readers seeking to chart the changing socio-historical condition of literary study.

Both grew up in the shadow of Rosings Park, domain of the formidable Lady Catherine de Bourgh, but as adults their paths diverged dramatically. When a catastrophe at Rosings Park brings Becky back to visit her sister, the two clash about their aspirations for the marriage of Catherine's young daughter, and both women are forced to confront the ghosts of the past—in particular, Lady Catherine's cruelty and deception. As the shocking truth emerges, the Darcy and Bingley families rally. But it may be too late for the sisters to find the love and happiness they were denied so long ago. O "A lovely novel, written from the heart."
