Description

Rule by head or rule by heart? Elinor Dashwood is a great believer in "sense," while her exuberant younger sister Marianne feels keenly that only "sensibility" - what today we'd call passion - serves to guide the heart. Through vicissitudes and, in the case of Marianne, outright betrayal by her lover, these 2 intelligent women learn the value in the other's outlook, and thereby prepare themselves for later domestic bliss that is the hallmark resolution of Jane Austen's novels.
