Autorenporträt
Consagrada como uma das maiores romancistas da literatura inglesa do século XIX, Jane Austen, a autora de Orgulho e Preconceito, tinha apenas 21 anos quando escreveu esta história, em 1797. No entanto, o livro só foi publicado em 1813, em razão do sucesso de sua primeira obra, intitulada Razão e Sensibilidade. Austen é considerada pioneira no enfoque do papel da mulher na sociedade em uma época em que as leis referentes à herança beneficiavam apenas os homens. À mulher restava o caminho do casamento. Jane Austen nasceu em Steventon, na zona rural da Inglaterra, em 1775. Era filha de um pastor da igreja anglicana, sendo que recebeu esmerada educação. Morreu em 1817, em Winchester. Suas criações literárias se destacam pela narrativa elegante, bem como pela ironia e pelos diálogos afiados e expressivos, características que têm atraído legiões de fãs de todas as idades e culturas.
