A lo largo de una trama que discurre con gran ritmo y precisión, Jane Austen reúne una galería de personajes característicos de toda una época: la dama empeñada en casar a sus hijas con el mejor partido de la región, las hermanas que se debaten con sus vaivenes sentimentales, el clérigo adulador que peca de oportunista... El estudio de caracteres y el análisis de las relaciones humanas basadas en la costumbre, elementos esenciales de la narrativa de la autora, alcanzan en Orgullo y prejuicio cotas de maestría insuperable.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Originally published in 1813, Pride and Prejudice is one of the all-time masterpieces of English literature.
Coming soon to Netflix: a highly anticipated six-episode limited series adaptation of Pride and Prejudice, written by Dolly Alderton and starring Emma Corrin and Jack Lowden as the iconic Elizabeth Bennet and the unforgettable Mr. Darcy.
Introduction by Tony Tanner, professor at the University of Cambridge.
Translation by Ana María Rodríguez.
Through a plot that unfolds with great rhythm and precision, Jane Austen brings together a gallery of signature characters of an entire era: the lady determined to marry off her daughters to the best match in the region, the sisters grappling with their romantic ups and downs, the fawning clergyman who sins of opportunism... The study of characters and the analysis of human relationships based on custom—essential elements of the author’s narrative—reach in Pride and Prejudice heights of unsurpassed mastery.
This edition includes a detailed chronology of the author. It also features the original introduction from Penguin Classics by Tony Tanner, who spent his career as a professor of English and American literature at the University of Cambridge, and whose incisive reflections on Jane Austen serve as the best guide for delving into this author’s literary universe.
