Dashwood is an anecdotal character and the hero of Jane Austen's novel Sense
and Sensibility. In this novel, Austen investigates the contention between the
contradicting personalities of sense and sensibility. In this contention,
Elinor, a somehow introvert, practical, and insightful young lady who epitomizes
the "sense" of the title, is compared to her sister Marianne who
typifies "sensibility".
