Recommended: Jane Austen's view on society in pride and prejudice

To my paramour, Befriending you in LHP, to me, is mere serendipity. Your altruistic nature, along with your youthful ebullience, is what earns you the sobriquet “The Most Amiable Gentleman of 10CA1.” It was sheer exaltation, therefore, to receive a laconic yet maudlin confession from so fervent and endearing an admirer. Nonetheless, it was such an ignominy for this callous creature to respond in so apathetic a manner as to repudiate your affection for me… Notwithstanding, you indefatigably endeavoured to win a humble reciprocation from me. And your perseverance triumphantly moved me, as I at last realized how passionately I am in love with you. This is the ostensible reason for my writing this letter: “In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.” – Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice. …show more content…

The effulgent pulchritude of your smile. The sanguine perspective on life of yours. They never cease to enrapture

We hear stories of the hopes with which the Puritans arrived in the new world; however, these hopes quickly turned dark because the Purtains found that the first buildings they needed to create were a prison, which alludes to the sins they committed; and a cemetery, which contradicts the new life they hoped to create for themselves.

  • A Modest Proposal - Rhetorical Analysis Essay

    737 Words  | 2 Pages

    In 1729, Jonathan Swift published a pamphlet called “A Modest Proposal”. It is a satirical piece that described a radical and humorous proposal to a very serious problem. The problem Swift was attacking was the poverty and state of destitution that Ireland was in at the time. Swift wanted to bring attention to the seriousness of the problem and does so by satirically proposing to eat the babies of poor families in order to rid Ireland of poverty. Clearly, this proposal is not to be taken seriously, but merely to prompt others to work to better the state of the nation. Swift hoped to reach not only the people of Ireland who he was calling to action, but the British, who were oppressing the poor. He writes with contempt for those who are oppressing the Irish and also dissatisfaction with the people in Ireland themselves to be oppressed.

  • Dialogue In Pride And Prejudice

    1391 Words  | 3 Pages

    The characters, in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, come to life through dialogue. Some characters have an inability to stop talking, while others remain quite and save their words for times when they need to convey their feelings. The dialogue in Pride and Prejudice is unlike that of Shakespeare's play where characters have lengthy monologues, the dialogue is more conversational, very witty and clever. Rarely is there a character embarking on a extensive speech, and there are not any chapters solely devoted to describing each and every physical characteristic of each person. Jane Austen uses dialogue to portray the personality of her characters, to allow the reader to see the underlying feelings and meanings behind the characters words.

    “The book was better” is the mundane response when inquiring as to books and their respective film adaptations. Pride and Prejudice is no exception.
