Obvious typographical errors have been carefully corrected and the entire text has been reset and redesigned by Adeptio Editions to enhance readability, while respecting the original edition. "Emma" is considered by some as Jane Austen's greatest novels. It tells the story of Emma Woodhouse, an intelligent and wealthy young woman who lives with her father in the English village of Highbury. Emma is immature and meddles in the lives of the people around her, often to negative effect. She is proud of her matchmaking skills, and ends up turning her attention towards making a match for her new prot g , Harriet. Despite her obsession with romance, Emma is clueless about her own feelings for George Knightley, a true gentleman and her long-time friend-who enjoys correcting Emma on her well-intentioned but often mistaken perspectives. About the Author: Jane Austen (1775-1817) was an English novelist whose seminal works, inspired by her own upbringing as well as in the landed gentry, have influenced successive generations. She was the seventh child-out of eight-and second daughter of Cassandra (n e Leigh) and the Reverend George Austen. She was born on December 16, 1775, in Steventon, Hampshire, England. Her parents were well-respected middle-class community members. Her father was the local Anglican clergyman and supplemented the family income by taking private pupils in the family home and parsonage. Her mother, Cassandra Leigh Austen, came from an aristocratic family and influenced Jane's sense of social class and self-worth. When they were young, Jane and her six brothers and sister were encouraged to read from their father's extensive library. With a romantic vein, but nevertheless a realist-known for her style and ironic humor as well as for her fascinating depiction of women's domestic roles of the early nineteenth century-Austen wrote "Sense and Sensibility" (1811), "Pride and Prejudice" (1813), "Mansfield Park" (1814), "Emma" (1815), "Northanger Abbey" (1817), and "Persuasion" (1818), all of which replete with memorable protagonists-as are Emma Woodhouse and George Knightley in "Emma."
