Pride and Prejudice is a novel written by British author Jane Austen and published in 1813. Originally, the novel was titled First Impressions but was changed to Pride and Prejudice. Set in rural England, Austen centers her story on a family with five daughters who will not inherit their family's estate which is entailed to the nearest male relative. Therefore, it is paramount to the family that at least one of the daughters must marry a wealthy man who can provide for the other four sisters. This novel, one of the first of its kind, is considered the original romantic comedy in English literature.
