In the passage from Jane Austen’s Novel Northanger Abbey‚ Austen uses several literary devices to describe Catherine Morland such as her use of diction and imagery to help characterize Catherine Morland. “Her situation in life‚ the character of her father and mother‚ her own person and disposition‚ were all equally against her.” After reading this what would you think of Catherine Morland?

“It is a truth universally acknowledged‚ that a single man in possession of a good fortune‚ must be in want of a wife.”(Pride and Prejudice 1.1-2). Simply put‚ marriage is an agreement between two people to be joined together for the rest of their lives‚ but as shown in two passages from novels‚ Pride and Prejudice with Mr. Collin’s proposal along with Our Mutual Friend and Mr. Headstone’s proposal‚ there can always be added twists and turns to each marriage.
