Her Dad Actually Said That of Her - Persuasion Chapters 1, 2, 3, 4

Persuasion is Jane Austen's last novel. By the time of her death, it was in it's second draft. She may have edited it more or published it as is. We'll never know.

This video summarizes chapters 1, 2, 3, and 4. These chapters give us Anne Elliot's background. In these chapters, we see the Elliot family dynamics and the pressure Anne is under to do what her family wants and what society expects.
