Jane Austen

GCSE English Jane Austen

The most famous of Jane Austen's novels, Pride and Prejudice has become one of the most popular novels in English literature, and it remains a source of fascination for modern readers; regularly ranking near the top of lists of "most loved books," no surprise for a book tackling issues from manners, upbringing, morality, education, and marriage. The novel centres on Elizabeth Bennet, the second of the five daughters of a landed country gentleman. Elizabeth's father, Mr. Bennet, is a bookish man and somewhat neglectful of his responsibilities. In contrast Elizabeth's mother, the empty headed Mrs. Bennet, a woman who lacks social graces, is primarily concerned with finding suitable husbands for her five daughters, who will inherit little or nothing from their father. Will our heroine conquer all, to ensure a happy ending for the family?
