Pride And Prejudice Quiz – The Bennet Sisters and Mr Darcy

Jane Austen published Pride and Prejudice in 1813, having drafted it in the 1790s as First Impressions. The Bennets of Longbourn have five daughters and no son, so the estate will pass to their cousin Mr Collins.

When rich Mr Bingley rents Netherfield, he falls for Jane, while his friend Mr Darcy seems proud to Elizabeth. Elizabeth refuses Mr Collins, and later turns down Darcy's first proposal.

After Lydia elopes with Mr Wickham, Darcy quietly saves the family from disgrace, and Elizabeth sees him clearly at last. Famous adaptations include the 1995 BBC series with Colin Firth and the 2005 film.
