Pride and Prejudice is a romantic novel of manners written by Jane Austen in 1813. The novel follows the character development of Elizabeth Bennet, the dynamic protagonist of the book who learns about the repercussions of hasty judgments and comes to appreciate the difference between superficial goodness and actual goodness. Its humour lies in its honest depiction of manners, education, marriage, and money during the Regency era in Great Britain.The novel is about in rural England within the early 19th century. Mrs. Bennet attempts to influence Mr. Bennet to go to Mr. Bingley, an upscale bachelor recently arrived within the neighbourhood. After some verbal sparring together with her husband, Mrs. Bennet believes he won't turn Mr. Bingley. Shortly afterward he visits Netherfield, Mr. Bingley's rented residence, much to Mrs. Bennet's delight. The visit is followed by a call for participation to a ball at the local assembly rooms that the whole neighbourhood will attend.At the ball, Mr. Bingley's friendly and cheerful manner makes him fashionable guests. He appears interested in Jane Bennet (the Bennets' eldest daughter), with whom he dances twice. Bingley's friend, Mr. Darcy, reputed to be twice as wealthy, is haughty and aloof, causing a decided dislike of him. He declines to bop with Elizabeth (the Bennets' second-eldest daughter), stating she isn't attractive enough to tempt him.[5] Elizabeth finds this amusing and jokes about it together with her friends.Mr. Bingley's sister, Caroline, later invites Jane to Netherfield for dinner. On her way there, Jane is caught during a shower and develops a nasty cold, forcing her to remain at Netherfield to recuperate. When Elizabeth goes to ascertain Jane, Mr. Darcy finds himself becoming interested in Elizabeth (stating she has "fine eyes"), while Miss Bingley grows jealous, as she herself has designs on Mr. Darcy.
