Pride and Prejudice is a novel by Jane Austen, published in 1813. A novel of manners, it follows Elizabeth Bennet as she confronts the consequences of hasty judgments and distinguishes superficial from actual goodness. The plot is driven in part by the Bennet family's need for one of five daughters to marry well, since the Longbourn estate can only be inherited through the male line.
