Pride and Prejudice Questionnaire

Task 1: watch the movie to the end on You Tube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6RI7Rb2g6k
and answer the questions :

What was the relationship between Mr. Wickham and Mr. Darcy (what kind of common past did they share)?
Both had grown up in the same area and under the protection of grand old Mr.Darcy, who had raised two boys equally as his sons . Two childhood friends parted immediately after old Mr.Darcy’s death in arguings over money , power and honour (which one –Wicham- had less in tons).

Mr. Darcy seemed to be an utterly arrogant, cold - and careless-natured man to strangers. Once you got to know his true nature , you got to know one honest, loyal and fair man, who expressed his disgust for “ false pearls” by keeping distance. Even though he so tended to escape from those worthy of his sympathy, too. Still , everything wonderful fascinated him deeply, as a pure soul – he didn’t lie about his feelings .
Mr. Wickham hid an irresponsible, ungrateful and advantage -taking persona under the mask of a gentleman. A pretty face with a rotten heart , but nothing extraordinary...
Mr. Bingley was one positive character all the way. Nobody could ’ve believed bad things of him. As an extremely good -hearted and quite a romantic soul, he was kind of naive and that bought up a lot of misunderstandings. A person everyone seemed easy to sympathize with.
The Bennet sisters Two of the eldest were close to the heart from the beginning and this feeling grew stronger the more you understood their characters . The youngest ones , instead, were plain and silly, only out for lust and fun. The older these two grew, the worse their nature started floating out...

Fitzwilliam Darcy.

What were the three main reasons that Mr. Collins wanted to get married ?
1) to act the way lady Lucas wanted 2) to gain someone , who’d take care of the household 3) to make a gift to the Bennets (following God’s will).

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).

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.

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.

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.

What was the attitude of Darcy / Elizabeth towards dancing?
There was a quiet challenge between the two of them , they tried to look through each other while dancing, probably to find reasons for dislike which was dangerously fading and being transferred into interest.

What did an “accomplished woman ” have to be like and what qualities to possess according to Darcy’s definition ? What did Elizabeth think about that definition?

Who were pride/prejudiced in the film in your opinion and why?
Everyone have those kinds of qualities like pride and prejudgment - we all are humen. But the most prejudiced were clearly Mr.Wickham (for his handsome appearance) and Mr.Darcy, clearly. The ones with biggest pride were lady Lucas and Caroline Bingley, rich ladies with sharp tongue.

Task 2: Identify who uttered the quotes (the list of characters might be of help):

*“My good opinion once lost is lost forever ” Charlotte Lucas
*“Oh, my goodness. Everybody behave naturally“. Mrs. Bennet
*“So this is your opinion of me. Thank you for explaining so fully. Perhaps these offences might have be overlooked had not your pride been hurt by my honesty“ Mr.Darcy
*“That will do extremely well, child . You have delighted us long enough. Let the other young ladies have time to exhibit” Mr. Bennet
*“I am the happiest creature in the world. Perhaps other people have said so before , but no one with such justice. I am happier even that Jane; she only smiles, I laugh” Lydia Bennett
* “And those are the words of a gentleman. From the first moment I met you, your arrogance and conceit , your selfish disdain for the feelings of others made me realize that you were the last man in the world I could ever be prevailed upon to marry.“ Elizabeth Bennet
*“It was the lack of propriety shown by your mother , your three younger sisters, and even, on the occasion, your father .“ Mr.Darcy
*“Have you no consideration for my poor nerves?“ Mrs. Bennet
*“It's been many years since I had such an exemplary vegetable .“ Mr. Collins
*“My goodness, did you see her hem? Six inches deep in mud. She looked positively mediaeval“ Caroline Bingley

Pride and Prejudice Book report

Jane Austen "Pride & Prejudice" Pride and Prejudice, first published on 28 January 1813, has consistently been Jane Austen's most popular novel. Austen sold the copyright for Pride and Prejudice to Thomas Egerton. Egerton published the first edition of Pride and Prejudice in three hardcover volumes in January. The tone is light and a little humoristic. Pride and Prejudice is a humorous story of love and life among English gentility. At first the book was called "First impressions" and this gives a better expression to the requests of the author, than the later heading. People meet, do not understand each other and communication does not offer joy either. So this is contrary to love at first sight. It is a tale of love and values in the class-conscious England of the late 18th century. It is a story of five sisters and their lives

TARTUFFE (inglise keelne)

Still, the sincere are easy to distinguish; And many splendid patterns may be found, In our own time, before our very eyes Look at Ariston, Periandre, Oronte, Alcidamas, Clitandre, and Polydore; No one denies their claim to true religion; Yet they're no braggadocios of virtue, They do not make insufferable display, And their religion's human, tractable; They are not always judging all our actions, They'd think such judgment savoured of presumption; And, leaving pride of words to other men, 'Tis by their deeds alone they censure ours. Evil appearances find little credit With them; they even incline to think the best Of others. No caballers, no intriguers, They mind the business of their own right living. They don't attack a sinner tooth and nail, For sin's the only object of their hatred; Nor are they over-zealous to attempt Far more in heaven's behalf than heaven would have 'em. That is my kind of man, that is true living,
