Her comments were edited and intensified.

Written by Jin Austin
It was published in 1815, this novel focuses on the moral education of The Titular Emma Woodhouse, which is subject to it by an older family friend, Mr. Knightley. It constitutes her behavior and personality, and turns her into a marriage that can be married; The age gap serves an educational function, as the older man directed the youngest woman towards what Lionel Trailling refers to the name “Ideal for Smart Love”.
Of course, education is a social and collective institution. One of my favorite chapters in “Emma”, Chapter 5 of the first volume, is a long conversation between Mr. Knightley, the former mother of Emma and Mrs. Weston. They are talking about Emma’s teaching and its various disadvantages, and Mrs. Weston is trying to hint by Mr. Knightley that his interest in Emma Pesc Yoshha. Part of the endless interesting questions that Emma is being taught by who is taught by who, whose major designs are really realized in a marriage conspiracy.
Middlemarch
By George Elliot
Here is an unhappy novel: The REDENT, RASH, and Dorothea Broke, marry the dried cleric Edward Corpoon, who intends to be a fellow for a man, as you think, writes something great, “the key to myths”. Gradually, she became not available from this idea before, among others, her husband’s cousin, Will Ledislav, handsome and romantic, who loves her.
Elliot, this sympathetic novelist, assures us that she will honor the inner life of the inner code in the same way that Dorothia does. But as soon as we glimpse the ideas of Casaubon, we learn that there is very little there. “The spirit of a code was sensitive without being enthusiastic: it was very customary to excite the self -awareness in an emotional joy; it fluttering in the swamps where he hatched it, thinking about its wings and never fly.” The older man is trivial, captive, afraid, and is trying to control his young wife by his will – the “dead hand” that compares Elliot again and repeatedly to the hands of beautiful Dorothia, who always continues to help the needy.

Lolita
Written by Vladimir Nabokov
There is a risk in naming “Lolita”, such as the novel of the age gap; Her narrator, Hambert Hambert, dares to a twelve -year -old girl, and adults from his luxurious prose, dare us to ignore her or her excuse. It is the most exceptional examination of how an exciting imagination can disintegrate with the cruelty of the truth of another weak person, and insists that what is a scandal in art is what is amazing aesthetically, and not sexually explicit.
Two recent novels, Alyssa NutingTamba“Walcus Regevield”My heavenly favorites“Interacts with” Lolita “in exciting ways. He explains that an American publisher may have distributed the novel if Nabokov has turned the title of the title” to a 12 -year -old boy and was submerged by Hambert, a farmer, in a fold. . . All this stipulates short, strong, “realistic” sentences (“Crazy behavior. We all act mad, I think.”) “Rijneveld’s” Lolita is the daughter whose name has not been revealed to the Dutch dairy farmer who is eager to the body of a boy and her temptation by a veterinarian.
