| Summary | "Discipline" by Mary Brunton is a novel written in the early 19th century. It chronicles the life of Ellen Percy, a wealthy and headstrong young woman, as she navigates the complexities of adolescence and society, grappling with her own pride and the lessons of humility and self-awareness. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to Ellen as she reflects on her childhood, the consequences of her spoiled upbringing, and the tender yet enabling relationship she had with her mother. The opening chapter sets the stage for her struggles with self-importance and rebellion, highlighting her conflicts with authority figures, particularly her father and later, her schoolmates. As Ellen's character begins to evolve through her interactions at school and the revelations of her mother’s influence, it becomes clear that the path to personal growth will be laden with challenges requiring discipline and introspection.
