Expressing the Problem of Personality and Society in the English

Lady Catherine de Bourgh, who possesses wealth and social standing, is haughty, domineering and condescending. Mr Collins, among others, enables these characteristics by deferring to her opinions and desires. Elizabeth, however, is duly respectful but not intimidated. Darcy, whilst respectful of their shared family connection, is offended by her lack of manners, especially towards Elizabeth, and later, when pressed by her demand that he not marry Elizabeth, is quick to assert his intentions to marry whom he wishes.

  • Aunt and Uncle Gardiner: he is Mrs Bennet's brother, and a successful businessman in London—quite sensible and gentleman-like. His wife is close with—a mentor to—both Elizabeth and Jane, and she proves vital in assisting Elizabeth and in interpreting Darcy. Jane stays with the Gardiners in London for a while, and Elizabeth travels with them to Derbyshire, where she again meets Darcy. They both support the Bennets by trying to help Lydia when she elopes with Wickham.

  • Georgiana Darcy is Mr Darcy's quiet and amiable younger sister, aged sixteen when the story begins. In a letter to Elizabeth, Darcy describes events of the previous year, when Wickham tried to persuade Georgiana to elope with him, so that he could inherit her £30,000. Later, Elizabeth meets her at Pemberley, where she is amiable and sweet. She is very happy with her brother's choosing of Elizabeth and maintains a close relationship with them both.

So, we know that Jane Austen wrote about people who had money and property (Houses and land). Some people were richer than others, but none of them were poor. These people did not work. They visited each other and they met at balls and dances. They played cards and read books and had conversation. Men got a money band property from their fathers. An eldest son usually got most of the money and property after his father’s death. Younger sons often went into the church or the army. Daughters stayed at home. They learnt to read and write, to draw, play music and sew. It was important for a girl to marry a man who had money and property. In this society, people were very polite and formal. They used polite words everywhere and every time. People travelled in carriages pulled by horses or walked, but women did not usually go out alone.
