Book excerpt: Jane Austen's most popular novel, the unforgettable story of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr Darcy. Now in large print. Mrs Bennet has five daughters to marry. Not easy when they have a small dowry, and suitors are scarce. But a new young gentleman has just arrived at Netherfield Park, the neighbouring estate, and the good manners of the English gentry of the Regency era quickly arrange a ball to meet him. Mr Bingley soon becomes involved with the eldest daughter, Jane, and there is almost talk of marriage. The same cannot be said of his youngest daughter, Elizabeth, who for her part has met the man who is certainly the proudest in the county in the person of Mr. Darcy, a friend of Mr. Bingley's, with whom she has an icy, barely polite relationship. This rather obnoxious and haughty character, however, takes a great interest in this sassy, witty and independent young woman. In Jane Austen's comedy of manners, intellectual and class prejudices, personal pride and family pride fall victim to these encounters, making this novel Jane Austen's most famous work, known for her caustic wit and keen observations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pride and Prejudice is the most popular book ever written, even though it is exactly two hundred years old, having been published in 1817 !!! It is currently being downloaded more times than any other book. It has been made into two major motion pictures, plus a Bollywood production and innumerable television shows including a PBS production. It has been reprinted innumerable times. More than twenty editions are available. This book is in Large Print Edition. The Fonts are 16-point type, nearly double the size of typical book printing. This is to make the book more comfortable and easier to read. It also makes the book appear to be longer. We hope the reading public appreciates our efforts to make the great classics more readable. The enduring popularity of this book is attributable to marriage which is still practiced in some circles. The word "love" occurs 122 times in this book. The words virgin or virginity never appear. Yet the five girls are all presumed virgins at the beginning of this book, as they are holding out to give their virginity to a man of means. That forms the plot to this book. Mr. and Mrs. Bennet have five daughters but no sons. Although the Bennets are moderately wealthy, owning land, they cannot leave any of their wealth to their daughters, as only males can inherit it. Since the Bennets have no sons, upon the death of Mr. Bennet, his property will be inherited by a cousin, Mr. William Collins. Mrs. Bennet, who owns no property, will be left with nothing. Thus, Mrs. Bennet must find wealthy men to marry her daughters or else she and her daughters will be left destitute when their father dies. The daughters are constantly warned to avoid entanglements except with men of means. The daughters however wish a love marriage, not a marriage based on wealth or position in society. It is the arrival of a new man in town, a Mr. Darcy, who has guaranteed income for life, which starts the process of trying to inveigle him into marrying one of the daughters. We are told Mr. Darcy derives his wealth from large property he owns in Derbyshire. He is from the landed gentry. At that time, a few rich people in England owned all the land. The peasants of the lower class worked the land and gave the products of their labors to the idle rich. The daughters and their parents know that to approach Darcy too aggressively about marriage would put him off, but to be too remote would cause him to lose interest. So, they have to strike a happy medium. They plan to make Darcy wild with desire so as to trick him into loving one of the daughters. Jane Austen makes a point to explain that the Bingleys acquired their wealth by trade rather than through the gentry's and aristocracy's methods of inheriting estates and making money off their tenants as landlords. The author explores the differences between "Old Money" and "New Money." "Old Money" is considered good. New money is considered bad. In our modern era, we have the opposite view. We think as good the people who made their money "The old fashioned" way by working for it, whereas the idle rich who just collect rents from tenants who live on land they inherited are not good. In Pride and Prejudice, Darcy and the Bennets are all Old money people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Set among the minor gentry in the vicinity of the fictional town of Meryton, near London in Hertfordshire, the novel follows the activities of Elizabeth Bennet, the second of five daughters of a country gentleman and his rather crass and intellectually limited wife. The story opens with the uproar surrounding the news than a nearby manor house has been rented by a well-to-do young single man from London, and the machinations of the local residents with marriageable daughters which ensue. From that starting point through a series of events both momentous and mundane, appearances and judgments are put to the test as various characters are gradually revealed to be something other than what they have appeared. Jane Austen Born into a family at the lowest tier of the English landed gentry, Jane Austen (1775-1817) found modest critical and financial success in her lifetime, but by 1830 her books had been out of print for a decade when the copyrights were purchased and new illustrated editions included in Richard Bentley's popular "Standard Novels" series. With wider exposure they gained popularity and stature, and sold steadily if not spectacularly. Throughout the 19th century Austen's work had an admiring following among Britain's self-proclaimed "literary elite," but it was really not until the early twentieth century that her novels became the object of academic studies as "great literature". "Pride and Prejudice", published in 1813, was her second published novel. It has become one of the most beloved novels in the English language, with millions of copies sold and numerous adaptations to stage, screen and other forms. Austen's work was part of the transition to realism in 19th century British literature, and her romantic fiction, set for the most part among the gentry of the English countryside was marked by dry wit, satire, and sharp social commentary, often directed at the unfairness of the British legal and cultural systems that left women virtually entirely dependent upon marriage and family for social standing and economic security. In "Pride and Prejudice", for example, Austen uses the repetitive complaints of the mother to attack, indirectly and humorously, the "entailed estate", a form of ownership in which only male heirs can inherit real estate, making the father's cousin, not his wife and daughters, the legal heir to their home. While it is common to identify Austen with Elizabeth, the relationship that develops between Jane, the oldest sister, and Mr. Bingley is remarkably reminiscent of a the brief relationship between young Jane Austen and Thomas LeFroy, a visitor who stayed for a time near Austen's family and would later become Lord Chief Justice of Ireland, perhaps the only romance of Austen's life. With the exception of a short period at a boarding school and visits to a brother who was, for a time, a London banker, Austen lived her entire life within a close-knit family group mainly located in the countryside very much like the settings of her novels. In a cruelly ironic twist, Austen's family would suffer the fate feared by Mrs. Bennet in "Pride and Prejudice" when her father died, unexpectedly, leaving his wife and unmarried daughters destitute and dependent upon her brothers for support.

Mr. Bennet of Longbourn estate has five daughters and, as his wife has no fortune and the daughters are unable to inherit his, it is important that they (or at least one of them) marry "well." The novel's protagonist, Elizabeth Bennet, learns her error in making overhasty judgments, and, in falling for Mr. Darcy, discovers the importance of marrying, above all, for love. Jane Austen was born in Hampshire, England, in 1775 to a family on the lower fringes of the English gentry. Her father George was the rector of the Anglican parish at their village of Steventon from 1765 until 1801. She had six brothers, and an older sister--like her mother named Cassandra--with whom she was very close. Jane and Cassandra were sent to Oxford to be educated by Mrs. Ann Cawley, moving together to Southampton later in the year, but the girls returned home in the autumn after they had caught typhus and Jane nearly died. Jane was then home educated, but also went to boarding school in Reading in 1785. She wrote stories for her family's amusement, and longer drafts--some using the quiet of her father's rectory--of what would later become her famous novels. These include Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814), Emma (1815) and, published posthumously, Northanger Abbey (1818) and Persuasion (1818). Having relocated with her family to Bath after her father's retirement, when he died in 1805, her brother Edward offered their mother and the two sisters a settled life in a cottage on his estate in Chawton. She lived there for the last eight years of her life, and died (likely of Addison's disease or Hodgkin's lymphoma) in 1817.
