Sense and Sensibility / 理智与情感

A timeless story of love, restraint, and the heart—presented in English and Simplified Chinese.
一部关于爱情、克制与真心的永恒故事,中英双语呈现。

A love story shaped by the heart—and tested by the world.

When the Dashwood sisters lose their home and their financial security, Elinor and Marianne must find their place in a society where a woman’s future can depend on money, reputation and a fortunate marriage. Sensible, self-controlled Elinor conceals a painful attachment to Edward Ferrars; passionate Marianne gives her heart to the charismatic John Willoughby. As hope, disappointment and misunderstanding reshape both their lives, Jane Austen asks whether happiness comes from following feeling, trusting judgement—or learning to balance the two.

一个由真心推动、又受现实考验的爱情故事。

达什伍德姐妹失去家园与经济保障后,埃莉诺和玛丽安娜必须在一个女性的未来往往取决于财富、名声和婚姻的社会中寻找自己的位置。理智克制的埃莉诺默默承受着对爱德华·费拉斯的深情;热情率真的玛丽安娜则将真心交给了魅力非凡的约翰·威洛比。希望、失望与误解不断改变着她们的人生,简·奥斯汀也由此追问:幸福究竟来自追随感情、相信理智,还是学会让两者相互平衡?

A timeless classic in English and Simplified Chinese.

This carefully prepared bilingual edition presents Austen’s original English alongside a clear, natural Simplified Chinese translation. Each English passage is followed by its Chinese equivalent, making it easy to enjoy the novel in either language, compare the wording, or turn to the translation whenever Austen’s elegant Regency prose becomes challenging.

中英双语呈现的永恒经典。

本书精心编排,将奥斯汀的英文原文与清晰自然的简体中文译文对应呈现。每段英文之后均附有相应中文,读者既可以任选一种语言沉浸阅读,也可以对照原文与译文;当摄政时期优雅而含蓄的英文表达稍显困难时,中文译文能帮助您顺畅理解故事。

The translation has been shaped for meaning, voice and readability—not mechanically converted word by word. It aims to preserve Austen’s wit, emotional restraint and sharply observed dialogue while allowing Chinese readers to experience the characters and their choices with clarity and immediacy.

译文以准确传达含义、人物语气与阅读流畅度为目标,并非机械逐字转换。它努力保留奥斯汀的机智、含蓄的情感与敏锐生动的对话,让中文读者能够自然、真切地感受人物的性格与抉择。

This edition also includes valuable reading material: an introduction to Regency society and the pressures of class, inheritance and propriety; an exploration of the novel’s themes and characters; and a biography of Jane Austen. These sections make the world behind the romance more vivid without interrupting the story itself.

本书还收录了丰富的延伸内容:介绍摄政时期社会,以及阶级、继承制度与礼仪规范如何影响人物命运;探讨小说主题与主要人物;并附有简·奥斯汀传记。这些内容让爱情故事背后的世界更加鲜活,却不会打断阅读的沉浸感。
