||1: The best chapters are those in which Mr Mullan relates a theme in the novels to social history—moments that modern readers might otherwise miss. ||2: Thus, Austen never features or gives voice to the lower classes and servants. ||3: Readers might not see them, but by observing the dialogue and other characters’ manners it is clear that they are there. ||4: Contemporary readers, though, would be familiar with servants being present, and would sympathise, for example, with Elizabeth Bennet’s frustration at her mother gossiping in front of them in “Pride and Prejudice”. ||5: Playing games is also significant. ||6: Modern-day readers may not intuit the set-up of card tables, but they are a useful trick for Austen to push characters together and manoeuvre others away (all in the name of courtship). ||7: She also passes subtle judgments on the common practice of gambling. ||8: The chapter on money is revealing, since wealth and inheritance were inextricably tied to social standing and the all-engrossing business of getting married.

||1:穆兰将小说的主题同社会历史联系起来的章节，是本书最精彩的部分，否则现在的读者很有可能忽略掉那些历史时刻。||2:因此，奥斯汀从未特意描写过下层社会和仆人，亦或是让他们有只言片语。||3:读者或许看不到他们，但是通过注意其他角色的对话及举止，能很明显的感觉到这些人是存在书中的。||4:然而，和作者处在同一时期的读者对在场的仆人就十分熟知了，因而书中的细节会引起读者的共鸣，例如《傲慢与偏见》当中，伊莉莎白班内特很懊丧的发现他妈妈在他们面前闲聊，便会成功的使读者的同情心泛滥。||5:玩游戏也是非常重要的。||6:如今的读者或许不能凭直觉发现牌桌建立的意义，但这却是奥斯汀将重要角色集中并且巧妙支开（所有的都是以爱之名义）其他人的一个好窍门。||7:她同样能精确地辨别出赌博的惯例。||8:因为财富和遗产往往跟社会地位以及结婚交易密不可分，所以书中跟财富有关的的章节能给人以启迪。
