Mrs. Norris, from
Mansfield Park by Jane Austen

Mrs. Norris is the first of a series of literary portraits of characters from classic fiction who may, not unreasonably, be described as 'Larger than Life.' The series alternates between portraits of men and women. Mrs. Norris is followed by Mr. Slope, from Trollope's Barrhester Towers. After him come Jeanie Deans (' Just an ordinary girl ') from Scott's The Heart of Midlothian; then ' The Hypocrite': Mr. Pecksniff from Dickens's Martin Chuzzleuwit ; and ' Sweet Seventeen ': Fanny Burney's Evelina. Other portraits include Professor Challenger from Conan Doyle 's The Lost World, and Tong So from Ernest Bramah 's Kai Lung Unrolls his Mat.
