N2  - Much has been said of the light and sparkling side of Pride and - the delicious social comedy, the unerring dialogue, the satisfying love stories and its enchanting and spirited heroine. Nonetheless, the novel is also about deeper issues in which Jane Austen demonstrates her belief that the truly civilized being maintains a proper balance between reason and energy. As Tony Tanner remarks in his stimulating introduction: 'Since to stress one at the expense of the other can either way mean loss, both to self and society, the picture of achieved congruence between them offered in Pride and Prejudice is of unfading relevance. It is perhaps no wonder that it has also proved capable of giving eternal delight.'
