The Effect of Social Class on Marriage in the Works of Jane Austen
HOSPODÁŘSKÁ, Martina
This diploma thesis focuses on the differences between social classes in Regency England at the turn of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and the extent to which these social inequalities affect the formation of marriage in the six completed novels of the author Jane Austen. As this period was also marked by the disadvantaged position of women in society and in marriage, the thesis also includes an analysis of these issues and the distinctions in rights and responsibilities between male and female characters. The overall aim of the thesis is to highlight the conditions under which the characters in Jane Austen's novels decide to enter into marriage, what role the differences in social status play for them when choosing a partner, and whether they take into account their feelings or rather economic and social reasons when doing so.
Vliv sociální třídy na manželství v Pýše a předsudku
HOSPODÁŘSKÁ, Martina
The aim of my bachelor thesis is to consider the importance of social class and determine to what extent it influences the formation of marriages in one of the most famous classic novels Pride and Prejudice by the significant English author Jane Austen. In the theoretical part, I will describe the historical and social background of the late 18th and early 19th century, which is the time the author lived in. In the practical part, I will specifically focus on the marriages that were formed in the novel and try to determine whether the characters were influenced by class differences when choosing their partner. I will also characterize the importance of social class in general and mention how the role of female characters differs from the male ones.
