    Sammanfattning : In Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, gender roles and gender expectations relate to class differences in a system of social convention which operates to delimit all of the characters - men and women, rich people and less privileged people - to a greater or lesser extent, in a way which reflects actual class and gender structures in England around 1800. The most important strain of social commentary on gender and class in the novel is constituted by the characterisation of Elizabeth Bennet. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Can chick-lit be canonical? : a feminist reading och Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and Candace Bushnell's Sex and the city

I hope to find out what made Austen an esteemed writer and if the same criteria of evaluation can be applied to Bushnell. LÄS MER
