Gender is a key theme in Pride and Prejudice . The story takes place at a time when gender roles were quite rigid, and men and women had a very different set of options and influences. What does it mean that Mr. Bennet’s property is “entailed”?

It can only be inherited by a male.

Wickham has told Miss Bingley lies about Elizabeth’s character.

Darcy is constantly speaking ill of Elizabeth.

Elizabeth insulted Miss Bingley at the ball.

. Who is prideful and who is prejudiced?

Austen’s novel shows that almost anyone is capable of being prideful and prejudice

. "I am no longer surprised at your knowing only six accomplished women. I rather wonder now at your knowing any . " what does this quote explain?

Elizabeth makes this retort to Darcy after he explains the high standards he has for women and the skills he expects them to possess. Elizabeth sarcastically points out that his expectations are unrealistic and unfair.

Mr. Collins assumes that everything Lady Catherine does is intelligent and in good taste because he is prejudiced by her wealth and social position

Darcy shows his integrity and generosity. Elizabeth realizes that her prideful and prejudiced attitude has led her to be totally mistaken about the characters of both men.

What does Mr. Darcy think about Elizabeth Bennet ?

she is tolerable but not handsome enough to tempt him

she is very pretty and intelligent but too independent to tempt him

she is too poor and low witted to tempt him

she is tolerable but not wealthy enough to tempt him
