Jane Austen was the first English language writer of fiction to observe how people's behavior changed with their moods and how these observations could be used to develop a more fully realized character. Of all Austen's novels, Pride and Prejudice is her best known, and in it she brings her observations of human behavior to bear on just how such observations may lead one astray. The novel also explores the often times comic foibles of a family of the gentry of Georgian England, the Bennets., ISBN13: 9781566190930 ISBN10: 1566190932 Material Type: hardcover
