5/30/2023 0 Comments Mr darcy from pride and prejudiceShe often says the opposite of what she really means. This allows her to stand back and offer judgements on certain situations. She shares her capacity for irony with her father and the narrator. She likes to laugh at people, including herself. (See Chapters 8,9, and 11, when she is looking after Jane at Netherfield, in her conversations with Bingley, his sisters and Darcy). She is Mr Bennet’s favourite daughter and her ‘quickness of mind’ is made evident in her witty and teasing conversations, where she often adopts striking and independent views. The novel is concerned with pride and with prejudice and she and Darcy are the main players. Her personality, her attitudes and her development throughout the novel bring together the story and all the other characters. She is the main focus of our interest, she is the novel’s heroine, even though she makes mistakes and is not particularly heroic. Elizabeth is the central character in Pride and Prejudice – indeed it could be said that Elizabeth is Pride and Prejudice.
