Originally published in 1813, Pride and Prejudice is one of the all-time masterpieces of English literature.

Jane Austen describes a gallery of characters to create a perfect and subtle portrait of the time: the adventures of a lady determined to marry off her daughters to the best match in the region, the emotional ups and downs of the sisters, the opportunism of a fawning cleric … The tracing of the characters and the analysis of human relationships subject to a rigid social code, key elements of the author’s narrative, mean that Pride and Prejudice reaches levels of unsurpassed mastery.

And what will the world be like in the millennia to come?
