Pride and Prejudice :: Pride Prejudice Essays

Pride and impairment                      In fact, Pride and Prejudice was originally entitled First Impressions. However, the allegory is not only to the highest degree scratch impressions. Although we push aside find the first impressions about the characters through the first few chapters, this book shows us the effects of those impressions on the individual characters-- detriments of the characters. The reputation almost evenly describes the defects of Fitzwilliam Darcy who show pride at the beginning of the novel he speaks carelessly and insultingly to Elizabeth Bennet, and George Wickham who deceives others on purpose and conceals his truthless character. Elizabeth misunderstood two of them at first because of her prejudice.                       At first I have false that the title of this novel alludes clearly to Darcys pride and Elizabeths prejudice. I also conceit that the novel tells how Darcy and Elizabath overcome their pride and prejudice. However, I realize that this over simplifies the authors purpose. We can certainly see that Elizabeth has pride as much as Darcy has. She is noble-minded of her intelligence, comprehension and independence. Actually, Darcys pride disappears quite a bit early in this novel. By chapter 6, he is starting to change his attitudes towards her. He is humbling himself to be close to her.  This shows   Darcys change But no sooner had he make it to clear to himself and his friends that she had hardly a good feature in her face, than he began to find it was rendered uncommonly intelligent by the beautiful expression of her olive-drab eye (16 page) He began to wish to know more of her, and as a step towards conversing with her himself, attended to her conversation with others.  From this point, Darcys prejudice against El izabeth begins to fade while her prejudice towards him still remains because he refused to dance with her at the ball. Her prejudice spreads passim the book, and that prejudice is an outcome of her wounded pride.                      The main subject of this novel is wooing and marriage. Jane Austen, the author of Pride and Prejudice, shows and indirectly criticizes the 18th century Englands rural parliamentary law and the pride of high class through several peoples marriages who are in different social position.
