Description

Proud of his position. He is wealthy, and has his head up high.

Darcy addresses his flaw of pride, but also justifies himself.

Dialogue between the girls sounds very similar to that of today's teenage girls.

Very proud of her daughters; however, she tries not to brag too much. For example, she was talking to Mrs. Lucas about Jane and although was fishing for compliments, tried to keep on the down low as well.

Strongly prejudiced; has opinions on everything! For example, she believes in love first and marriage second. Love shouldn't come after.

Elizabeth and Charlotte's conversation still relates to today. They bring up two major points

If you show you love him he might feel too proud to show it back.

If you don't show it and he loves you then it might not go anywhere.

People's lives were centered around rumors, gossip, and people. The women especially had nothing better to do than get together with friends and have some tea.

Prejudiced against women and people of lower rank and fortune.

This argument showed how easily their opinions could be shifted. It also showed the personalities of the characters. Elizabeth, even though disagreeing with Darcy, showed firmness and independence. Bingley tried to ease the tension through humor.

Keeps reoccurring; Pride is when you think highly of yourself, vanity is when you desire others to think highly of you

Elizabeth too easily believes everything Mr. Wickham says. When everyone else tells her that he is not a genuine man, she doesn't agree and sticks to her belief that he is great.
