Class and social status in Pride and Prejudice

A conversation carried out by the representative of a great titled family and the members of mediocre class illustrates the differences between them in even the smallest aspects of the everyday life. "When my niece Georgiana went to Ramsgate last summer, I made a point of her having two men servants go with her. You must send John with the young ladies, Mrs. Collins." This statement from an aristocrat, Lady Catherine, to the girls of rather inferior descent, comes to show that if one Miss from a noble family required two servants whilst travelling, then two women of mediocre class were expected to have only one. Perhaps Lady Catherine is one of the characters in the book through whom the reader gets the greatest gist of how important class was in everyday life of the 19 th century people. During a conversation with Elizabeth Bennet Mr. Collins advises her not to fret about her appearance before visiting her ladyship

The Way Home

But, it's really hard to find something that good, and really easy to lose it. Just consider pro and con, and then keep what you really love. However, distance makes everything clearer; you can only see the whole when you are far enough. Take Alex for an example, as she had travelled ever further outwards, she found the answer. The Nature of Truth: Annie was a successful author and she met an old friend, Jane, on the train. Things change a lot, even if you had settled down. Jane had the boyfriend in collage and they soon got married after graduated. At first, they had a happy life, but one year later, Jane's husband had extramarital relations and divorced with Jane.

Oliver twist - kokkuvõte

The woman, without a word of who she was, died and left her new born boy, Oliver, to the drunken nurse that stood by. Chapter2: The State gave Oliver to Mrs. Mann who housed a number of orphaned children. Mrs. Mann took a large portion of the money given to her by the authorities for each child's food so Oliver grew up small and malnourished. On his ninth birthday, the town beadle, Mr. Bumble, came to collect Oliver and take him to the board for an interview. They told him he was to live with other wards of the state to become educated and learn a trade. Oliver did not mind this, but soon after he arrived, the state decided to implement a plan that would save money by feeding the people very little. After a time on this diet, the boys at the table chose Oliver to go ask the head cook for more gruel. Oliver did this, and was taken away. A flyer was then posted that said the state would give five pounds for someone to take young Oliver off their hands.

Pride and prejudice

4. What was Mrs. Bennett's utmost worry? She was one constant slanderer, so there was nothing more enjoyable nor important for her than getting her daughters married as soon as possible (and show off about it afterwards). 5. Why was Darcy's marriage proposal to Elizabeth such a struggle to him according to his words? He was scared by the propriety and the lack of manners and intelligence of the other members of the Bennets family except Jane and Elizabeth. 6. How did Darcy justify his interference with the relationship between Jane and Bingley? He never ment to do any harm, but simply assumed by a glance that Jane isn'i into Bingley as deeply as It would've been necessary for a happy marriage. 7. What words did Darcy use to describe Elizabeth's appearance at the ball where they first met? He claimed that Elizabeth wasn't pretty, nor elegant enough to catch his eye. 8

The mysterious affair at styles

Emily Inglethorp's presence and conversation dominate everyone's life at Styles. This domination must upset someone very deeply because soon Emily is found dead from strychnine poisoning. Emily was a forceful person but even so, who would want to kill her? One obvious answer is Emily's current husband, Alfred Inglethorp. He started out being the old lady's secretary and got promoted to husband. "Rotten little bounder" is how John Cavendish describes him. Inglethorp is years younger than his wife and gushes attention on her in a very obsequious manner. The second suspect to consider is John Cavendish himself. John, the older of two Cavendish sons, was a lawyer who has settled down to the life of a country squire. John's dislike for life at Styles is obvious from the first. The situation between Inglethorp and his stepmother is "making life jolly difficult for us," he tells Hastings. John and his wife, Mary, haven't the funds to move to a place of their own

As novels have such a great influence on me, I often misunderstand people in reality. Also, I quite often jump into conclusions. For example there was this awfully embarrassing situation that happened to me when I thought that General Tilney killed his wife. I was very ashamed of myself. To sum up, I lack of experience and am too keen on reading novels. This is what makes me so naïve and sometimes causes trouble. Even when I think I should read less I just cannot help it!

Afterward, David spoke to Lynn from the station, giving the impression that a single call from London was interrupted. He returned to London on the milk train the next day. Of the three deaths, one is accidental, one a genuine suicide. The only true murder was Rosaleen's. David had no apparent motive to kill his own sister, especially when it would mean depriving himself of the Cloade fortune. But the woman posing as Rosaleen was not his sister; his sister was killed during the bombing of Gordon Cloade's estate two years earlier.
