| The main themes in the novel revolve around the extent to which each of sense and sensibility governs human behaviour. Eighteenth century society, together with its attitudes to money and marriage, and its unique social etiquette, is examined. Austen exposes the fashionable gentility of life in four country houses and in their owners’ London establishments. |
