Mr. Bingley: A new neighbor of the town and one of the main characters. He likes Jane.
Mr. Darcy: Mr. Bingley best friend. He is proud and a little annoying. He likes Elizabeth, but his
pride does not let him say that. Elizabeth sort of hates him.

Pride and Prejudice tells the story of the five Bennet sisters Elizabeth (Lizzy), Jane, Mary, Catheryn
(Kitty), and Lydia and the tribulations of their respective loves. The story takes place in a rural area of
England at the beginning of the 19th century.

In chapters 1, 2 and 3 the characters are revealed, among them the Bennet Family and their daughters,
which is a family that has little money. Her mother, Mrs. Bennet, is interested in her daughters getting
well-off husbands, and when a rich young man named Bingley comes to town, she does everything she
can to get him to meet her daughters.

Finally, Mr. Bingley meets the Bennet sisters and his best friend, Mr. Darcy, who is also young, rich and
proud, meets Elizabeth, but initially does not think very highly of her.

Women were submissive, they always focused on marriage and had to marry wealthy or well-to-do
men, even though many of them were not in love. The ideal is to have a home, raise children. The men
were respectful and their hobby was hunting.

In the novel there is a strong division of social classes, and they had many prejudices. He did not take
women into account, their only role was to dedicate themselves to housework, being a mother and a
wife. That is why I do not agree with that situation because women were discriminated against and had
no possibility of improving their standard of living unless they had a profitable marriage with a young
man with good economic conditions.

this but responds to his opinions with pride

En la novella existe una fuerte division de clases sociales, y tenian muchos prejuicios. No tenia
en cuenta a las mujeres, su único papel era dedicarse a las labores de casa, ser madre y esposa.
Por eso no estoy de acuerdo con esa situacion porque las mujeres eran discriminadas y no
tenian posibilidad alguna de mejorar su nivel de vida a menos que tuviese un matrimonio
provechoso con un joven de buenas condiciones economicas.
