    Darcy is the character most often associated with pride and Elizabeth Bennett with prejudice. Ironically the novel was originally called ‘First Impressions’ an aspect Darcy seems to lack originally. Understanding the world can be perceived in many different aspects; literally or figuratively. The protagonists; Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy capture our attention from the beginning of the novel. Austen is able to contradict the patriarchal society that existed in the nineteenth century, as she builds Elizabeth to be rational, strong and independent. Women were mainly seen in this time to entertain yet Elizabeth did not carry these traits. Her perspective of the world was different to how her mother saw her future, she rejects two men of which rank highly on the social ladder proposal towards her. Ironically she ends the novel marrying the wealthiest of them all. Whereas, Darcy originally is not fond of Elizabeth ‘She is tolerable, I suppose, but not handsome enough to tempt me’ his second glance at her changes his judgement he describes her eyes to be. Darcy emits a character full of pride and…

    Pride and Prejudice reflect the strictly regimented nature of life for the middle and upper classes in Regency England. Jane Austen satirizes this kind of class-consciousness, particularly in the character of Mr. Collins, who though Mr. Collins offers an extreme example, he is not the one to hold such view. His conception of the importance class is shared, among other by Mr. Darcy who believes in the dignity of his lineage.…

    Jane Austen uses letters in Pride and Prejudice for a number of reasons, (such as character development and plot) however, I feel the most important function is the role they play in the engagement of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy. There are three letters in particular that pave the way for this engagement: Darcy’s letter to Elizabeth, Jane’s letter to Elizabeth while she is at Pemberley and Mrs. Gardiner’s letter to Elizabeth regarding Darcy’s involvement in Lydia’s wedding. It is not only the content of the letters, but also the reactions to the letters that leads to the acceptance of Darcy’s second proposal.…

    Literature is consumed with romantic heroes. Jane Eyre’s Mr Rochester, Juliet’s Romeo, Elizabeth Bennet’s Mr Darcy… the list is endless. The character of Fitzwilliam Darcy in Jane Austen’s 1813 novel, “Pride and Prejudice” is an example of one of the most well known romantic figures in Western society. Although not initially popular, Mr Darcy, a wealthy, handsome but arrogant gentleman, goes through significant reappraisal. High expectations, arrogance and pride initially position the reader to dislike Darcy, but as the novel progresses, events and circumstances transform the readers’ opinion of him.…

    I have always been fascinated with behavioral disorders, especially OCD. I learned about OCD a few years ago when I was reading a medical journal. At first, it seemed like something very odd. The idea that otherwise normal people can do such strange things, and not be able to control themselves was fascinating. I wanted to know more about this topic, which is why I chose to write my paper on it. I thought that by knowing more about the subject, I will be able to better understand how these people's lives can be literally taken over by their constant worries and anxiety. Also, I think a lot of people exhibit these behaviors and aren't even aware that they may have a severe problem, and more importantly, that they can be getting help to control these obsessions and compulsions. I also know that I have a lot of habits that could possibly be considered obsessive, and by writing this paper, I may have a better understanding of my own behaviors, and the ability to distinguish between a habit, and an obsession.…

    One vital regard of OCD is the alarming statistics. An estimated 4.3 million American adults have this disorder. That is approximately one in fifty people. It has an impact on people more than any other mental or emotional-based disorder. The typical age population affected is between eighteen and fifty-four; however, OCD makes no discrimination among race, sex, or culture. The average onset stage of OCD is nineteen years old, but one may also develop it later in life. Nearly half of all sufferers find it to be rooted in their childhoods, showing signs as early…

    Mr. Darcy’s first declaration of love for Elizabeth is a perfect illustration of how love functions in this novel: "You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you [despite your awful family and your socially inferior position]." There are many obstacles on the road to love in Pride and Prejudice, not the least of which are …pride and prejudice. But Jane Austen pens a happy ending, showing us that there’s something about love that enables it to overcome all the pride and prejudice that society throws in its way.…

    Assignment: _Write a review of the 1995 Pride and Prejudice film, (seen in class) comment on the cast, music, setting, wardrobe etc._ Generally speaking film adaptations of classic novels rarely ever prove superior or a match for the books on which they are based. This may be attributed to the fact that the written word allows for more nuances than the camera. In many cases the book is severely compromised in order to make the story more cinematic, key parts are altered or omitted entirely and the book becomes wide open to be interpreted and thus reflected as producer sees it fit. Thus it may be argued that it is an incredible feat when a famous novel’s tone can be seamlessly translated to the screen, satisfying fanatical admirers and relatively unfamiliar audiencesalike. The cast may be described as uniformly impeccable, with actors such as David Bamber as the smarmy Mr. Collins and Alison Steadman as the ever discordantMrs. Bennet . Miss Austen herself probably could not have selected better feet to fill the shoes of her characters. The main plot traces the relationship between Elizabeth Bennet (Jennifer Ehle), the second of five sisters, and a wealthy young bachelor named Darcy (Colin Firth). The two are not immediately attracted to each other, it is actually a pride and prejudice separates them (hence the title), but as the story progresses, they are forced to examine their hearts as well as their preconceptions about each other, in order to understand the truth. A proverb states that, “Life without music is a journey through a desert.” This is certainly true in this film, as the composition and the soundtrack support the overall momentum. It is the music that brings to life what would be just a series of pictures and words, if the film were bereft of the heart pulsating and melodious nerve soothing music the film would hardly be what it is. Somewhat more importantly is the setting, as it is this that ties together all the other factors. The meticulous…
