Notes
"Pride and Prejudice," written by Jane Austen and published in 1813, is a classic novel that explores themes of love, social class, and morality in 19th-century England. The story follows Elizabeth Bennet, a sharp-witted and independent young woman, as she navigates the complexities of relationships and societal expectations. Central to the plot is her evolving relationship with the wealthy and initially aloof Mr. Darcy. Through a series of misunderstandings and personal growth, both characters learn to overcome their prejudices and pride, ultimately finding love and mutual respect. Austen's keen observations of human behavior and her satirical commentary on the social mores of her time make "Pride and Prejudice" a timeless and beloved work of literature.
