Abstract

The article explores the representation of voice and judgment in Jane Austen's novel "Mansfield Park." It analyzes the portrayal of the Methodist clergyman Edmund including his conception of religion and his own profession, his view of marriage, limitations of his moral goodness and mind, his adverse judgment of Henry and Maria Ward and their marriage, and his lack of family partiality when it comes to her judgment of his sister.
