Edmund Bertram : ウィキペディア英語版 | Edmund Bertram
Edmund Bertram is a lead character in Jane Austen's 1814 novel ''Mansfield Park''. He is Sir Thomas's second son and plans to be ordained as a clergyman. ==Character== Edmund is a naturally kind and compassionate person, as demonstrated by his conduct toward Fanny Price, an impoverished cousin who has come to live with Edmund's family from her impoverished home and family in Portsmouth. Edmund's kindness and generosity to Fanny distinguish him from the rest of his family, who tend to exploit Fanny's good nature or mock her for her less privileged upbringing. For instance, Edmund's brother Tom teases Fanny, his sisters, Maria and Julia, condescend to give Fanny toys of the least value to them, and their aunt Norris refuses to allow a fire to be lit in Fanny's room. However, Edmund remains friendly and encouraging to Fanny and she gradually falls in love with him as she grows up.
