How about another theme? Written by JulieW (8/28/2005 4:34 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Such a common theme!, penned by Kelley B

Consider Mrs Lefroy in this situation ,and then compare her to the role Lady Russell played in parting Anne and Wentworth in Persuasion?

Do you think this situation could have inspired JA when she wrote Persuasion all those years later?
