Beskrivelse
Mr Bennet 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 will be destitute 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. Elizabeth Bennet learns about the repercussions of hasty judgments and comes to appreciate the difference between superficial goodness and actual goodness. The novel revolves around the importance of marrying for love, not for money or social prestige, despite the communal pressure to make a wealthy match. Pride and Prejudice has become one of the most popular novels in English literature.
