Notes

"Emma," published in 1815 by Jane Austen, is a novel set in the early 19th century that revolves around the charming and wealthy Emma Woodhouse. Living in the fictional village of Highbury, Emma is a self-proclaimed matchmaker who delights in meddling in the romantic affairs of others. Despite her confidence in her matchmaking abilities, her efforts often lead to misunderstandings and complications. Through a series of social blunders and personal realizations, Emma matures and eventually finds love in an unexpected place. Austen's keen observations of social manners and human relationships are masterfully depicted in this beloved classic.
