Pride and Prejudice suggests a view of marriage as a social contract driven by economic and social considerations, where compatibility and mutual respect may not always be the primary factors. The conversation between Mr. and Mrs. Bennet in Chapter One highlights the lack of communication and understanding in their marriage, reflecting a union based more on convenience than genuine connection. Mr. Bennet's dismissive and sarcastic remarks about their marriage further emphasize the idea of marriages of convenience during the time period.

Mr. Darcy values a well-rounded education and believes a gentleman should have intellectual pursuits. Elizabeth's interest in studying character reflects her curiosity about people's behavior and personalities. Both characters prioritize personal growth and self-awareness in their own ways.

In "Pride and Prejudice," Jane Austen highlights the importance of novel reading as a means of education and personal growth. Through characters like Elizabeth Bennet, who gains wisdom and self-awareness through reading novels, Austen suggests that engaging with fictional literature can help individuals develop greater empathy, insight, and critical thinking skills. By presenting her characters as avid readers and showing the impact of their reading habits on their attitudes and behaviors, Austen underscores the transformative power of literature in shaping one's understanding of themselves and the world around them.

In "Pride and Prejudice," the exposition introduces the Bennet family and the social norms of the time, focusing on the need for the five Bennet daughters to marry well due to their lack of inheritance. It also sets up the arrival of Mr. Bingley and Mr. Darcy in the neighborhood, sparking romantic interests and conflicts.

We only know of one marriage proposal Jane Austen received. It came from a man named Harris Bigg-Wither, who was very wealthy, but not very attractive. She accepted it, but after thinking about it for about a day, decided to break the engagement.

Unfortunately, there is a lot about Jane Austen's life we do not know, and so there may have been other marriage proposals we do not know about.

Yes, in 'Persuasion' Anne Elliot is reminded of Frederick Wentworth, her past love and she has a flashback. She remembers how in love they were and what happened to make her turn him away.

Among English writers, we might list Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron, Shelly, and Keats as contemporaries of Jane Austen.

Of course, the King of her time was George III, and she lived the last part of her life under the Regency. The Napoleonic Wars were going on during much of her life, and so she would have recognized the names of such people as Lord Nelson and the Duke of Wellington.

Darcy is proud of his family. He believes Elizabeth's family is not as good as his own, in some undefined way. He is proud, but he is also prejudiced. He tries very hard not to fall in love with her, but he cannot. Aside from being pretty, lively, and charming, she may be the only woman he has ever met who is unimpressed by his money. He makes his reservations about her very clear when he proposes in Hunsford, and feels wounded by the rejection he receives. So he writes Elizabeth the famous letter.

We do not know much about Darcy's thoughts between then and the time he meets Elizabeth at Pemberley. I imagine he must have compared the vulgarity of Mrs. Bennet with the bad manners of his own aunt, Lady Catherine. Certainly, we can understand that he would have had the inferiority of Elizabeth's family reinforced by the news of Lydia's elopement. But in fact, he must have understood that, as much as the elopement damaged the reputation of the Bennets, his own family only missed the exact same disgrace by chance. In the end, when he says he is still in love with Elizabeth, included in the dialog are his words, "your family, much as I respect them..."

As for Elizabeth, she has always been proud of her own ability to judge others, and her prejudice against Darcy is partly based on this pride. Her disgust of Darcy only increases until his proposal, and the letter he writes after being rejected. She then begins to realize that she has misjudged him. In the subsequent events, she realizes that Darcy is not who she had thought. What she had thought was pride was clearly something else. Darcy's sister is found to be shy, rather than proud, and we might wonder whether Darcy, himself, was not shy also.

After Lydia's elopement, Elizabeth is mortified to find that Darcy had actually found Lydia and Wickham, and had attended the wedding. She realizes what disgust he must have felt at having to do this. She believes he has every reason not to want to see her again, and finally understands, at a point where she thinks all his love of her must be gone, that she is in love with him. Her understanding is made complete when she is told that he found Lydia and got Wickham to marry her for her own sake, despite the fact that he did not believe she would ever marry him.

The book "Emma" by Jane Austen takes place in the early 19th century in the fictional village of Highbury in England. It was published in 1815 and is set during the Regency era.
