Explained simply
Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice is a novel first published in 1813, set among families in England’s landed society. It follows Elizabeth Bennet, one of five sisters, as she weighs marriage, money and personal judgement.
Mr Darcy is a wealthy landowner whose reserved manner leads Elizabeth to misjudge him; he, in turn, must reconsider his first impression of her. Their changing understanding of one another sits alongside the Bennet family’s efforts to secure suitable marriages, at a time when women had limited ways to gain financial security.
The story has been adapted many times for stage and screen, with new versions interpreting Austen’s humour, courtship and family relationships for different audiences. Its central questions include how people form opinions and what makes a good marriage.
