Orgullo y prejuicio —escrita por Jane Austen a los vein-tiún años y publicada por ella misma, que la firmaría con seudónimo, en 1813, tras ser rechazada por va-rios editores— es una novela de amor o, mejor, una novela de enamorados. Bingley y Jane, Darcy y Elisa-beth. Lydia y Wickham luchan para obtener el objeto de su pasión, deben jugar el juego que la sociedad en que viven les propone y deben ganarlo. Sin saltarse las reglas, pero con un tesón capaz de vencer cualquier barrera, llegarán a toda costa a ese matrimonio que para ellos habrá de marcar el inicio de la felicidad soñada.

Work Description
Pride and Prejudice is an 1813 novel of manners written by Jane Austen. The novel follows the character development of Elizabeth Bennet, the dynamic protagonist of the book who learns about the repercussions of hasty judgments and comes to appreciate the difference between superficial goodness and actual goodness.
Mr. Bennet, owner of the Longbourn estate in Hertfordshire, has five daughters, but his property is entailed and can only be passed to a male heir. His wife also lacks an inheritance, so his family faces becoming very poor upon his death. Thus, it is imperative that at least one of the girls marry well to support the others, which is a motivation that drives the plot.
