Write a precis of the passage given below and add a suitable title.
In Austen's Mansfield Park, Henry Crawford, who has, according to his sister,
made most of the women that he has met fall in love with him, sets out to make
the heroine of the novel, the shy, the retiring and the morally determined Fanny
Price, follow this path. In many ways, we might judge Henry's decision to do this
as actually worse than the act itself, he is simply bored in the country and decides
that since he has nothing better to do, he will make Fanny Price fall in love with
me'. In this decision, he establishes the beginning of a long trail of cold-hearted
villains who embark on paths of crime or seduction in order to amuse themselves
or to enlarge their own sense of capability. Equally, we might see Henry
Crawford as the first of the great figures in fiction who troubled by ennui, turns to
the corruption of virtue to offer some interest to the mind that is satiated by the
boredom of the everyday and the familiar. Henry Crawford seeks 'sensation, that
appeal of the unknown or the different, to the person whose life is little challenge,
a way of life which is a defining characteristic for the lives of generations of
those living in wealth and without need.​
