Clicca qui per l'edizione "Storie senza tempo". Scritto nel 1795 con il titolo di "Elinor and Marianne", "Ragione e sentimento" viene pubblicato nel 1811. Come gli altri maggiori romanzi della Austen, descrive le vicende di un'anima ingenuamente romantica che, attraverso l'esperienza, giunge a comprendere infine la realtà dell'esistenza. Protagoniste sono le giovani sorelle Dashwood, Elinor e Marianne, che, alla morte del padre, sono costrette a fare i conti con le ristrettezze economiche nella loro nuova e modesta casa nel Devonshire. Qui conosceranno le pene e le gioie dell'amore e, imparando a conciliare la ragione con il sentimento, diventeranno donne. Attorno a questo processo di maturazione la Austen tesse una trama piena di grazia e ironia, in cui con la sua elegantissima prosa riesce ad analizzare e descrivere con straordinaria sottigliezza il contrasto e il dissidio tra istanze psicologiche e morali.
