The early nineteenth century in England was marked with outstanding women writers, such as Jane Austen, Charlotte and Emilia Bronte and some others. These great ladies brought romantic literature to the new level. Their novels investigate human psychology with the focus on feminine heart and soul. It seems for the first time in literature that their characters are strong women, who are nevertheless capable of deep feelings. For instance, let us take a look at Elizabeth Bennet of 'Pride and Prejudice' by Jane Austen. She is raised in a medium family of moderate income, surrounded by a great number of sisters and under command of a fussy mother, whose only concern is to find her daughters a decent husband. Elizabeth seems to be much higher than her surroundings both with her intelligence and strength of the spirit. As a new character arrives in the neighborhood, young Miss Bennet finally finds an equal counterpart. What a pity, that Mr. Darcy provokes only negative feelings in her. Will Elizabeth be able to outpower the social pressure? Will she be able to overcome her own prejudice? Will she be happy anyway? Listen online to the audiobook 'Pride and Prejudice' by Jane Austen and discover the universe of deep thoughts and feelings.
