Description

Mansfield Park is a novel by Jane Austen, first published in 1814, exploring themes of morality, social status, and family through the life of Fanny Price, a poor young woman raised by her wealthy relatives at Mansfield Park estate. A notable aspect of the novel is the inclusion of the play Lovers' Vows by Elizabeth Inchbald, around which a pivotal controversy unfolds, highlighting the characters’ values and flaws. A four-volume set that includes Lovers' Vows alongside Mansfield Park provides readers with deeper context into Austen’s critique of propriety, performance, and the blurred lines between art and real life.

Notes

Three volume miniature books encased in a charming little box with illustrations, like new condition.  Lovers' Vows is bound in red.
