What is the purpose of the novel Persuasion by Jane Austen?

All of Jane Austen's novels are examinations of problems surrounding love and marriage, with a complication involving wealth. In the case of Persuasion, the specific problem is one resulting from Anne Elliot's failure to marry Frederick Wentworth, with whom she was in love, and remains in love years later. She did this because she was persuaded by an older friend, whose opinion she valued, that she should not marry a man with no money. In the course of the book, Wentworth shows up again, this time quite rich, at a time when the Elliot family has fallen on hard times. To complicate things, the heir to the Elliot estate also shows up trying to court Anne, who does not love him. Like most of Jane Austen's novels, persuasion has a fortune hunter in it, who is after the heroine for monetary gain, and like all her novels, the heroine ends up happily married.

Summary of persuasion by Jane Austen?

Anne Elliot is 29 and falling out of grace. She used to be beautiful and engaged to a poor but handsome sailor who loved her, but Anne was persuaded out of the engagement by a friend. Now the sailor has come back, a captain in the Royal Navy, and Anne is as much in love with him as ever. Captain Wentworth does not seem to feel the same, however, so Anne gives him up for a lost cause when a distant relative shows up in town with thoughts of marrying Anne. Anne then finds out that this Mr. Elliot is a scoundrel, and Captain Wentworth renews his love to Anne.
