Book excerpt: The real evils, indeed, of Emma's situation were the power of having rather too much her own way, and a disposition to think a little too well of herself....The narrator opens the novel by introducing us to Emma Woodhouse, a girl endowed with "some of the best blessings of existence," including good looks, intelligence, riches, and an affectionate father. Emma's only disadvantages are that she is slightly spoiled and that she thinks "a little too well of herself." Emma's mother died before Emma could form many memories of her, but her gentle governess, Miss Taylor, provided a motherly love. After Emma's older sister, Isabella, was married and moved to London, Miss Taylor and Emma became best friends.As the novel begins, Miss Taylor has just left Hartfield, the estate of Emma and Mr. Woodhouse, to marry a widower named Mr. Weston, and Emma is left without a companion. She attempts to comfort her despondent father, who hates change, with the thought that they will see the new Mrs. Weston often, but Emma only partially succeeds in comforting herself. At this moment, neighborhood resident Mr. Knightley, the brother of Isabella's husband, pays a visit, having returned from visiting their mutual relations in London. He affirms the appropriateness of the match between Mr. Weston and Miss Taylor and gently chides Emma when she claims credit. Emma declares that she will repeat her matchmaking success by finding a wife for Mr. Elton, the village rector.

Book excerpt: Emma Emma, by Jane Austen, is a book about youthful hubris and the perils of misconstrued romance. The novel was initially published in December 1815. As with her other novels, Austen explores the concerns and troubles of genteel women residing in Georgian-Regency England; she also creates an energetic comedy of manners among her character types. Before she started the novel, Austen wrote, "I will have a heroine whom nobody but myself will much like." In the first sentence, she introduces the title personality as "Emma Woodhouse, handsome, smart, and rich." Emma is spoiled, headstrong, and self-satisfied; she greatly overestimates her own matchmaking capabilities; she actually is blind to the dangers of meddling in other's lives, and her imagination and perceptions often lead her astray.

Even though Emma's determined never to marry herself, she immediately decides to find Harriet a husband.Determined to make Harriet into a gentlewoman, Emma sets out to refine Harriet's tastes - especially in men.
