Question: 1 / 400

In what year was the novel Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen published?

1797

1813

Jane Austen's novel Pride and Prejudice was first published in 1813. As such, option A, which states 1797, is incorrect. This is because Austen began writing the novel in October 1796 and completed it in August 1797, but it was not published until 1813. Option C, which states 1825, is also incorrect as this is eight years after Austen's death in 1817. Similarly, option D, which states 1847, is also incorrect as this year is 34 years after Austen's death. Therefore, the only correct option is B, which states 1813 - the year in which the novel was actually published.
