Mansfield Park (1814), by Jane Austen, follows Fanny Price, a poor girl sent to live with her wealthy relatives, the Bertrams, at their estate. Raised as a dependent, Fanny grows into a gentle yet morally steadfast young woman. Her quiet world is disrupted when the charming but worldly Crawford siblings arrive: Henry flirts with Maria Bertram while courting Fanny, and Mary captivates the clergy-bound Edmund Bertram. Amid theatricals, scandal, and elopement, Fanny's integrity contrasts with the moral failings of those around her. Ultimately, her constancy is rewarded with marriage to Edmund and acceptance as a true daughter of Mansfield Park.
