The Role of Women in the Society Depicted by Jane Austen in Pride and P

The Role of Women in the Society Depicted by Jane Austen in Pride and PrejudicePride and Prejudice is a raw which based in truth, exploresrelationships between juvenility men and women two hundred years ago. It isnot difficult for the reader to comprehend Jane Austen?s point ofview, but she presents her arguments in a subtle way. Not only isit an admirable story of write out lost and found, with an eventual happyending, it also tells us a extensive amount slightly society at the time.This, however, contrasts heavily with todays values and behaviours.In ill-tempered the role of women then was quite different to the roleof women in the present day. Pride and Prejudice is mainly concernedwith women of a particular social class - the Bennett Family are notpoor, they are above the workings class, but they are not superrich either. Jane Austen explores the position of young women in thissituation by telling a story close what seams to be love, but isactually a novel also or so th e role of women and how they used loveand marriage in life to discover what they wanted. She does this byexplaining to the reader about all of the necessities that a womanshould have, explaining about the different opinions of the differentcharacters in the novel, which are based on opinions of documentary people ofthat time.

If she had notmarried Darcy it would be very unlikely that she would have time to play off another man who would marry her as she would be considered to be in addition o ld for marriage and therefore not a good match.To me, this novel shows women living a live without fulfilment orinterest. Women were seen as objects that consummate a household andwere looked upon the same as a beautiful statue or piece of art work.This lifestyle seems quite stifling and the lack of rights that womenhad at this time seems brutally unfair and backwards. The novel showsa society that was extremely judgemental and unforgiving that was toofixed on the theme of marriage where it is a truth universallyacknowledged that a single woman leave alone be in want of a husband in bullheadedness of a good fortune.
