The new screen version of “Mansfield Park” has come into some flack because it’s not “true to authorial intent.” Apparently this version points out that a major character makes their fortune off of slavery, brings another’s sexuality into the forefront and that makes the Camilla Pagilas of the world fume on Salon.com. If you want in on the discussion: permberley.com, the site for Austen enthusiasts, has a running debate going. [ thanks Peg ]
