The Really Jane..

It is a story betweens marriage, property and intrigue lie. The live of a couple of Bennet and
their five unmarried daughters change when bachelors with big fortune come to their town. Mrs.
Bennet wanted her daughter marry with him. It is easy for them who have pretty face and quite
educated to get him. But it is not as easy as they think. Social distance makes it hard for them to get to
marry with him. It is part of the story of Jane Austin Novel Pride and Prejudice. One of the Major
characters in this story is Jane Bennet, the eldest daughter of Bennets who is wanted by Mrs. Bennet to
marry with Mr. Bingley, the bachelor of big fortune.

Jane Bennet is described as all that is good in a female. She is patient and humble, long-suffering
and non-judgemental. She is an amiable, naïve, and extremely optimistic young lady whom sees no evil
or illness in others.

Besides her seraphic appearance, Jane is kind and thinks no harm of anyone in the world. In
Elizabeth’s words, Jane is the kind of person who “like[s] people in general” (16). “You never see a fault
in any body. All the world are good and agreeable in your eyes. I never heard you speak ill of a human
being in my life” (16), cried Elizabeth, when her elder sister was praising Mr. Bingley’s amiable and good-
humored personality, even though she has just met him once. However, Jane’s excessive optimism
blinds her from seeing those obvious illnesses in people: “Jane united with great strength of feeling,
composure of temper and an uniform cheerfulness of manner, which would guard her from the
suspicions of the impertinent” (22). This overly positive attitude towards general human beings made
Jane innocent, but at the same time, simplistic and naïve.

Her naive nature wants her to believe there is good in everyone, she doesnt want to see the
bad, she wants to believe in them. Of course she has thoughts of when people are rude, or when they
do outrageous things, like lydia, for example.

she's almost a satirical character because she's so extremely passive and sweet, But toward the
end of the book, Mr. Bennett points out that she and Bingley are so compliant and wussy that they will
be cheated by all their servants. Jane takes it as a joke, but there's a strong grain of truth in it

Seeing only the good, she is incapable of suspecting the worst of people.

Jane is an unformed character who lives on the mere surface of society, expending all her
energy to maintain a pleasant external behavior and positive disposition. Her behavior is a reaction to
the embarrassing vulgarity of her mother, but at the same level. Her father’s influence appears in her
determination to behave exactly opposite to her mother’s middle class vulgarity in every respect, being
quite, genteel and pleasing at all times. She exercises whatever strength she has not to be bad, evil or
shamelessly dynamic.
there is no energy of personality. She behaves as a kind of observer of the world and her own
future and allows life to take initiative on her behalf. Jane is unintelligent and incapable of forming
strong opinions. She casts all her opinions in a non-controversial, social mould. She is powerfully
attracted by men who are equally unintelligent, incapable of action, or even strong opinions.

She feels sorrow when he leaves, of course, but that does not diminish her love for him
