Remarkable
Jane Austen’s "favorite child" has been worrying hearts of millions of
readers around the world for three century. I won’t bring myself to call
"Pride and Prejudice" women's novel for two reasons. First, Jane Austen
wasn’t a typical woman of her time (at least because she was a female
writer).
Second, the book is impregnated with subtle intellect
and a brilliant, fine and pervasive irony that colors all of the
events, all the features, all the reflections in a very special tone
(which does great honor to the author). I would call this literary work
an intelligent novel, because the inherent wit and irony are embedded in
the romantic atmosphere of England milestone ages XVIII-XIX.
So,
what’s the dear Jane’s story? Parents of five Bennet’s sisters are
anxious to successfully give their daughters in marriage. That is why
regular life of a solid and reputable family is turned upside down when
the young gentleman - Mr. Bingley settles down next door ... Of course,
among friends of the new neighbour there are a lot of refined
aristocrats, who aren’t averse to chatting up charming sisters.
However,
things aren’t so simple. Headstrong Elizabeth meets a Bingley’s friend -
hansome and arrogant Mr. Darcy, and between them ignites serious
confrontation that could lead to love, and hate... The Novel "Pride and
Prejudice" – isn’t just a story about love. It’s about the strength of
family ties, of a sense of duty, honor, greed and hypocrisy, the ability
to recognize their mistakes and errors. It’s a novel that doesn’t only
encourage readers to the analysis and reflection, and doesn’t let them
get bored because of its really subtle humor and tender romance.
