Question

Distinguish between the themes of 'Pride and Prejudice' and 'Jane Eyre' novels written by Jane Austen and Charlotte Bronte respectively?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The novel written by Jane Austen gives us a glimpse of the genteel society in early 19th century Britain. The community was only interested in money and marriage and encouraged women to look for good marriages and wealthy or propertied husbands.

However, Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre shows Jane, character, as independent and assertive. While girls her age were taught to be quiet, gentle and submissive, Jane was independent and forthright and protests against her elders' hypocrisy with bluntness.
