Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe:

"Oneworld Classics" will include the greatest masterpieces of all time, from every literature and genre and will also redefine and enrich the classics canon by promoting unjustly neglected works of enduring significance. "Pride and Prejudice" ranks as one of the most cherished love stories in English literature, delighting generations of readers with its high comedy, social observation and compelling romance, and spawning an entire industry of spin-off books, film adaptations and works of literary criticism. The pride of aristocratic Mr Darcy, and the prejudice of middle-class Elizabeth Bennet, conduct a compelling dance through the rigid society of early 19th century England, with the passion of the two unlikely lovers growing as their union seems ever more improbable. With a host of Bennet sisters playing out their own triumphs and disasters, and the unforgettable tragicomedy of their parents' marriage demonstrating just how high the stakes can be, Jane Austen's second novel leaves a lasting legacy in the mind of everyone who reads it.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor:

Jane Austen ranks as one of the best-loved writers in the English language. Her novels, brimming with wit and populated by unforgettable characters, serve as a trenchant satire on the pretensions and foibles of provincial society. She began writing at a very early age, and went on to produce some of the greatest works of English literature, with "Emma" among her masterpieces.
