Publisher Description
Pride and Prejudice is both one of the most popular novels in English literature, and one of the most critically acclaimed. It was published in 1813 and has never gone out of print.
This version is annotated to help readers with the meaning of words no longer common in modern English, and words whose meanings have changed, clarifying passages that could otherwise be obscure to the modern reader.
It also contains:
- A list of characters in the novel
- A detailed author page
- Descriptions of life in Georgian England, rules of etiquette, class differences, the position of women, legal and economic realities
- A description of carriages and how they are important in Austen's writing
- A chronology of events
Editing, annotations and historical information by J. Winston Rowles.
Illustrated by Charles Edmund Brock.
