Notes on Pride and Prejudice


  • Collins misreads Elizabeth, Bingley misreads Jane, Lydia misread Wickham and Mrs Bennet misread everyone
  • Heidegger claims emotion influences what we see
  • Elizabeth has emotional and rational intelligence
  • We see emotions that comic character miss
  • 'Darcy is masculine becuase he is emotional' p131
  • the worst character are those that speak most forcibly for contemporary mores' p135
  • Mrs Bennet always takes on the position of conflict with Mr Bennet and Elizabeth
