Mansfield Park is a novel by Jane Austen, written at Chawton Cottage between 1812 and 1814.
The main character, Fanny Price, is a young girl from a relatively poor family, raised by her rich uncle and aunt, Sir Thomas and Lady Bertram, at Mansfield Park. She grows up with her four cousins, Tom Bertram, Edmund Bertram, Maria Bertram and Julia, but is always treated as inferior to them; only Edmund shows his real kindness. He is also the most virtuous of the siblings: Maria and Julia are vain and spoiled, while Tom is an irresponsible gambler. Over time, Fannys gratitude for Edmunds kindness secretly grows into romantic love.

《曼斯菲尔德庄园》是简·奥斯丁的名著。小说塑造了一对可爱的青年男女。范妮出身于贫困人家,十岁时被伯特伦爵士夫妇收养。来到姨父姨妈家后,虽然受到二表哥埃德蒙以外的众人的冷落,但她始终“有一颗温柔亲切的心,想要表现得体的强烈愿望”。尤其难能可贵的是,她始终能明辨是非,知人知心。大表哥汤姆等人要在家里排演有伤风化的情节剧,家里只有她一人加以反对和抵制。她早就看清了克劳福德兄妹的自私和轻浮,因而当克劳福德死死纠缠她时,她丝毫不为其所动,始终不渝地暗恋着埃德蒙;当克劳福德小姐对埃德蒙“旧情复发”的时候,她告诫表哥不要上她的当。最后,她的高尚人品赢得了托马斯爵士的器重,也赢得了埃德蒙的爱,两位年轻人终于结成伉俪。
