Justin Johnson Hr 3 Literary Criticism Essay Pride and Prejudice The late 1700’s weren’t exactly a friendly time period for women and Jane Austen’s book Pride and Prejudice affirms this.

In this course‚ we have gone over a lot of topics‚ that have been interesting and some have been very confusing.

Well‚ it was about a month ago so I’m over what I was initially asking‚ but I was wondering if you’ve read _American Tricksters: Thoughts on the Shadow Side of a Culture’s Psyche_.
