有没有《爱玛》的评论啊?英文的,200字左右~!谢谢了!!

  Emma was written in comic tone. Austen begun the novel in January 1814 and completed it in March of the next year. The book was published in three volumes. It told the story of Emma Woodhouse, who finds her destiny in marriage. Emma is a wealthy, pretty, self-satisfied young woman. She is left alone with her hypochondriac father. Her governess, Miss Taylor, marries a neighbor, Mr. Weston. Emma has too much time and she spends it choosing proper partners for her friends and neighbors - blind to her own feelings. She makes a protégée of Harriet Smith, an illegitimate girl of no social status and tries to manipulate a marriage between Harriet and Mr. Elton, a young clergyman, who has set his sight on Emma. Emma has feelings about Mr. Weston's son. When Harriet becomes interested in George Knightley, a neighboring squire who has been her friend, Emma starts to understand her own limitations. He has been her moral adviser, and secretly loves her. Finally Emma finds her destiny in marriage with him. Harriet, who is left to decide for herself, marries Robert Martin, a young farmer.
  Jane Austen’s Canonical Emma and its appropriation, Clueless by Amy Heckerling, are two resonating texts: what postmodernist Frederic Jameson describes as “aesthetic replays” of each other. The transformation process has required a recontextualisation of ideologies and medium to serve updated agendas, whilst borrowing aspects of the original. Whilst the texts are contextually shaped by different social, historical and cultural discourses, they explore timeless and transcendent societal themes, values and attitudes.
