Беннеты столкнулись с серьезными проблемами. Английская провинция 18 века была скучной, но не этот факт беспокоил супружескую пару. Герои воспитывали и растили пять дочерей. Скромное приданое не способствует поиску женихов. Когда глава семейства покинет этот мир, особняк перейдет во владение дальнего родственника, ведь наследника у него нет. Рядом не было богатых и достойных кандидатов в мужья для девушек, поэтому проблемы только усугублялись. Появление в провинции мистера Бингли стало важным событием. У молодого человека отличные манеры, а среди его друзей имеются состоятельные кавалеры…

Chapter 1

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.

However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighbourhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters.

"My dear Mr. Bennet," said his lady to him one day, "have you heard that Netherfield Park is let at last"

Mr. Bennet replied that he had not.

"But it is," returned she; "for Mrs. Long has just been here, and she told me all about it."

Mr. Bennet made no answer.

"Do you not want to know who has taken it?" cried his wife impatiently.

"You want to tell me, and I have no objection to hearing it."

This was invitation enough.

"Why, my dear, you must know, Mrs. Long says that Netherfield is taken by a young man of large fortune from the north of England; that he came down on Monday in a chaise and four to see the place, and was so much delighted with it, that he agreed with Mr. Morris immediately; that he is to take possession before Michaelmas, and some of his servants are to be in the house by the end of next week."

"What is his name?"

"Is he married or single?"

"Oh! Single, my dear, to be sure! A single man of large fortune; four or five thousand a year. What a fine thing for our girls!"

"How so? How can it affect them?"

"My dear Mr. Bennet," replied his wife, "how can you be so tiresome!

Аудиокнига “Pride and Prejudice” – “Гордость и предубеждение” автора Джейн Остин.

Автор: Дмитрий Коропенко

Уровень языка: начальный средний и выше.

Аудиокнига “Гордость и предубеждение“, которую мы рассматриваем в этой статье, записана на основе знаменитого романа с одноименным названием от гениального автора Джейн Остин, впервые опубликованного в 1813 году в Великобритании. Книга “Pride and Prejudice” (“Гордость и предубеждение”) непременно находится на самых первых строках опросов современных читателей англоязычной литературы по популярности. Несмотря на то, что роман был создан в самом начале 19 века, его идеи и проблематика остаются крайне актуальными и сегодня.

Сейчас предлагаю вам ознакомиться с кратким обзором романа “Гордость и предубеждение” на английском языке:

Pride and Prejudice is a novel of manners by Jane Austen, first published in 1813. The story follows the main character Elizabeth Bennet as she deals with issues of manners, upbringing, morality, education, and marriage in the society of the landed gentry of early 19th-century England. Elizabeth is the second of five daughters of a country gentleman living near the fictional town of Meryton in Hertfordshire, near London.

Though the story is set at the turn of the 19th century, it retains a fascination for modern readers, continuing near the top of lists of “most loved books” such as The Big Read. It has become one of the most popular novels in English literature and receives considerable attention from literary scholars. Modern interest in the book has resulted in a number of dramatic adaptations and an abundance of novels and stories imitating Austen’s memorable characters or themes. To date, the book has sold some 20 million copies worldwide.

The novel centres on Elizabeth Bennet, the second of the five daughters of a country gentleman. Mr Bennet is a bookish man, and somewhat neglectful of his responsibilities. Mrs Bennet is a woman lacking in social graces and primarily concerned with finding suitable husbands for her five daughters. Jane Bennet, the eldest daughter, is distinguished by the kindness of her attitudes and her beauty; Elizabeth Bennet, the second daughter, shares her father’s keen wit and occasionally sarcastic outlook; Mary is not pretty, but is studious, devout and musical albeit lacking in taste; Kitty, the fourth sister follows where her younger sister leads, while Lydia is flirtatious and unrestrained.

Many critics take the novel’s title as a starting point when analysing the major themes of Pr >

A major theme in much of Austen’s work is the importance of environment and upbringing on the development of young people’s character and morality. Social standing and wealth are not necessarily advantages in her world, and a further theme common to Jane Austen‘s work is ineffectual parents. In Pride and Prejudice, the failure of Mr and Mrs Bennet as parents is blamed for Lydia’s lack of moral judgment; Darcy, on the other hand, has been taught to be principled and scrupulously honourable, but he is also proud and overbearing.Kitty, rescued from Lydia’s bad influence and spending more time with her older sisters after they marry, is said to improve greatly in their superior society.
