Set in the glittering balls of genteel rural society of 18th century England and verdant landscape of the idyllic Pemberley, “Pride and Prejudice” is the story of young Elizabeth Bennett whose
property is entailed to the nearest male heir.
What can be said about the position of young Elizabeth Bennett in the rural society of 18th century England?

Immaterial means to be of no importance or relevance especially to a law case.
Unrelated means lacking a logical or causal relation.
Extraneous means something that is not pertinent to the matter under consideration.
Academic means marked by a narrow focus on or display of learning especially its trivial aspects.
