What did you learn about pride and prejudice from this chapter that might help you in writing your second paper?
From the third chapter of The Cambridge companion to Jane Austen I learned that Pride and Prejudice is modeled after a play. Therefore the characters were introduced in a highly descriptive, and in depth, summary plot. They are not only just characters, but role players. Jane Austen makes sure that through each role the character plays that he or she fulfills their part. This I believe could help me write my paper since I will have to make statements regarding sex, money and power (which is what the characters must fulfill as their roles)and back it up with quotes and references from the book. This will be especially helpful since her writing is so descriptive due to the fact it is a play format.
