Talk:Elinor Dashwood

Untitled
this book rocks. I love jane austen's "works of art"

I fixed her height. I don't know why you would even include that, but Elinor is SHORTER than Marianne, not taller. Here is the text: ''Miss Dashwood had a delicate complexion, regular features, and a remarkably pretty figure. Marianne was still handsomer. Her form, though not so correct as her sister's, in having the advantage of height, was more striking'' —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.92.211.92 (talk) 07:52, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

I added a few details of her fine character and person, and relationships with people. Classical Esther (talk) 06:00, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

In my recent reread of the novel, I didn't find any bit of information that could verify that Edward is older than Fanny. Simply that Edward is the "eldest son of a man who had died very rich" (Volume 1, Chapter 3: about 5 paragraphs in). There is also no source stating that Elinor is in any way a representation of Cassandra Austen.
