    The book opens with a parable regarding mountains. Eli makes it well known that they are heavily disabled alongside various other identities. Using disability to represent himself, the parable of the mountain describes social class and structure as being a daunting mountain.

    1. The parrot says “Allez vous-en! Allez vous-en! Sapristi! That’s all right!” (Chopin 5). It means “Get out! Get out! Damn it!” The words foreshadow something tragic to occur in the end of the novel. The parrot is also caged and also speaks a language in which only the mockingbird can understand. The parrot symbolizes Edna Pontillier who seems to only be understood by some but not all and seems to be beside herself because her husband doesn’t seem to notice her.…

    Of all the books I’ve read throughout high school, I feel that Pride and Prejudice epitomizes politics the most. Throughout the story, there’s this class struggle that manifests itself between the lower, middle, and upper class. Members of the upper class, the Bingleys and the Darcys, are portrayed as being “snobbish” and “prideful” people, and they aren’t afraid to flaunt their wealthy status to others. The Bennets, on the other hand, are part of the middle class and are constantly reminded of their inferiority to the upper class by specific members of the upper class. For example, Catherine De Bough, who attempted to prevent Elizabeth from marrying her nephew, Mr. Darcy, so their family’s reputation wouldn’t be tarnished, or Miss Bingley, who constantly degraded Elizabeth and Jane for attracting more successful men despite their lower social status.Then there’s the people of the lower class like Wickham, whose one goal is to assimilate with the upper class by marrying a woman who exudes wealthiness. Despite this inter-class struggle, Jane and Elizabeth both end up marrying higher class men, challenging the notion that in-class marriage is the only acceptable way to find one’s significant other.…

    Stated by Jane Austen in the novel Pride and Prejudice, “ There are few people whom I really love, and still fewer of whom I think well. The more I see the world, the more I am dissatisfied with it; and every day confirms my belief of the inconsistency of all human characters, and the little dependence that can be placed in the appearance of merit and sense” (Austen). No one fits into the idealistic world exactly. It is human nature to discriminate and conclude opinions on other people for their disparities, which is called prejudice. Prejudice is exemplified within Of Mice and Men in both language and actions of the characters, but what does prejudice really mean? Prejudice limits a person's ability to process information, and to judge others…

    Is it possible for a film to show an audience the internal tensions between two potential lovers? Or do the details of the script, sets, costumes and cinematography block the view? For example, look at Jane Austen 's classic love story "Pride and Prejudice" as told in two very different films. While both versions correctly tell the tale of love winning out over one girl 's selfish conceit and opinionated judgments, Simon Langton 's A&E miniseries holds true in every way to the depth of the story, while Joe Wright 's 2005 feature film dances over only the popularly known highlights. The resulting views of the story and romantic tension are, of course, completely different!…

    * JOURNEY: Nearly every scene in Pride and Prejudice takes place indoors and the action centers around the Bennet home in the small village of Longbourn. Nevertheless, journeys even short ones function repeatedly as catalysts for change in the novel. Elizabeth’s first journey, by which she intends simply to visit Charlotte and Mr. Collins, brings her into contact with Mr. Darcy, and leads to his first proposal. Her second journey takes her to Derby and Pemberley, where she fans the growing flame of her affection for Darcy. The third journey, meanwhile, sends various people in pursuit of Wickham and Lydia, and the journey ends with Darcy tracking them down and saving the Bennet family honor, in the process demonstrating his continued devotion to Elizabeth.…
