Presentation

4. ● Jane Austen was born in the Personage of the village
in the Year 1775.
● With her sisters she was educated at home,and passed
her life very quietly, cheerfully ,in the doing of small
domestic duties.
● She began to write at an early age of her life.
● Miss Austen appears to have begun writing with the
idea of Presenting the life of English Country Society.
❖ About Jane Austen :-

5. “ That Young lady has a talent for
describing the involvements and feelings
and characters of ordinary life which is to
me the most Wonderful I ever met With.”
— SirWalter Scott

6. ❖ A Brief Overview about the Novel -
“ Pride and Prejudice”
● Pride and prejudice has a Charmed
Place as the most Popular of Jane
Austen’s novels.
● It Considered as the greatest novel of
her.
● This novel achieves an ideal relation
between the individual and society.
● The novel published on 28th January
in the year - 1813.
● ‘Pride and Prejudice’ regarded as the
most Widely read of her novels.

7. ● The Economic difference we can find in lots of
Austen women and Austen men was certainly
Striking.
● The novel - “ Pride and prejudice ” is one of
them.
● Mr. Darcy - Upper Class
● Bennet Family - members of the middle class
● So, the theme of Social Class and money reflects
in our present novel.
● Pride and Prejudice did not go far, and Austen’s
letters for that year,as for every year are full of
reference to small economics.
❖ EconomicPerspective :-

8. ❖ How the theme of Money reflects in the novel :-
● One of the hardest Concepts for today’s readers to grasp in Jane Austen’s
novels - are the economic realities of the times.
● A great deal has been written about the Socio - economic identities and
circumstances of Jane Austen’s Characters.
● Though, ’Pride and Prejudice’ can be read as a delightful romance,but
properly understood, the romance Camouflages a grimy realistic depiction of
the dismal Position of women in Austen’s society.
● Money plays to the central role of Pride and prejudice.

9. ● Money was to support Women and also their Families.
● In the novel, Mrs. Bennett is very much Concerned With
Fortune in Which her daughters will marry into.
● She tries as much that she can too find good and Well- Off
husbands for her daughters.
● She also tried her best to Convince about this to her husband
- Mr. Bennett.
● Her Prayers are that one day all her five Children will be
Financially Secure.
❖ “ It is truth Universally acknowledged that a single man in
Possession of a good Fortune must be in Want of a Wife.”
● This Proves that Women were to be married to rich men in
Order to be Financially secure as the Society will never
allowed them to work , inherit or Own their Own Property.

10. Purpose Of My Presentation :-
● In today’s time We can see that this Economical
aspects affects very much in marriages.
● We still believed that Marriages always happened
between those who belongs to same
Status and Position.
● When we talked about Relationships and
Marriages, Generally people are fond of Sound
Financial Position of the Opposite one.

11. ❖ Conclusion:-
● To Conclude my Point I would like to say that
this Economic aspects is not that much bad in
the Concept of Marriages. But, when it leads to
selfishness and Pride than it is a bit Problematic
thing because when the two Persons truly love
each other..other things like Social status and
Financial differences doesn’t matter…
