1 As we go through each slide, make 2 inferences about the person you see and provide justifications. For example, you can infer that the person is nice or mean, sad or happy, and rich or poor. Be reasonable and respectful in your inferences. This is a silent activity; you will have time to share your answers at the end of the slide show. Directions

9 Discussion Questions Were you surprised by what you learned about each individual? Explain why.

10 Directions: On your handout, list 3 qualities that you based your inference on.

11 Transition

12 Answer the Following Questions 1. When you have a daughter, what characteristics will you instill in her? 2. At the Age of 27, what can reasonably be expected of a woman? 3. What qualities do you desire in a wife? 4. What are some reasons why a woman might not get married? 5. When a man and woman get divorced, what happens?

13 Definitions Civility: formal politeness and courtesy in behavior or speech. Customs: a traditional and widely accepted way of behaving or doing something that is specific to a particular society, place, or time.

14 Civility The aristocratic characters in Pride and Prejudice show their civility through their dry tolerance of those whom they consider to be of a lower class than themselves. For example, Miss Bingley and Mrs. Hurst are examples of this type of civility. Their kindness to Jane was only temporary, and was mostly out of kindness when they felt that Mr. Bingley was interested. Once Darcy intervened and separated Bingley from Jane, Miss Bingley ceased her acquaintance with Jane in a flat and mean way as if Jane was not worthy of her friendship in the first place.

15 Customs: The Gentlemen In riding horseback or walking along the street, the lady always has the wall. Meeting a lady in the street whom you know only slightly, you wait for her acknowledging bow- then and only then may you tip your hat to her, which is done using the hand farthest away from her to raise the hat. You do not speak to her - or to any other lady - unless she speaks to you first. In going up a flight of stairs, you precede the lady (running, according to one authority); in going down, you follow. At a public exhibition or concert, if accompanied by a lady, he goes in first in order to find her a seat. If he enters such an exhibition alone and there are ladies or older gentlemen present, he removes his hat. A gentleman is always introduced to a lady - never the other way around. It is presumed to be an honor for the gentleman to meet her. Likewise a social inferior is always introduced to a superior.

16 Customs: The Ladies If unmarried and under thirty, she is never to be seen in the company of a man without a chaperone. Except for a walk to church or a park in the early morning, she may not walk alone, but should always be accompanied by another lady, a man, or a servant. Under no circumstances may a lady call upon a gentleman alone unless she is consulting that gentleman on a professional or business matter. A lady never dances more than three dances with the same partner. A lady should never "cut" someone, that is to say, fail to acknowledge their presence after encountering them socially, unless it is absolutely necessary. By the same token, only a lady is ever truly justified in cutting someone.

17 Entitlement Entitlement: the fact of having a right to something. Inherit: receive (money, property, or a title) as an heir at the death of the previous holder.

18 Entail An entail was a legal device used to prevent a landed property from being broken up, and/or from descending in a female line. This is a logical extension of the then-prevalent practice of leaving the bulk of one's wealth (particularly real estate) to one's eldest son or "heir" (thus Darcy has an income of £10,000 a year, representing a wealth of about £200,000, while his sister has £30,000; similarly, Bingley has £100,000, and his two sisters £20,000 apiece)."heir"Darcyhis sisterBingleyhis two sisters

19 Courtship Courtship: A period during which a couple develop a romantic relationship, especially with a view to marriage. Discussion Question: How and why does the Father modify his daughters behavior in the paragraph below? "Louisa Burton was naturally ill-tempered and Cunning; but she had been taught to disguise her real Disposition, under the appearance of insinuating Sweetness, by a father who but too well knew that to be married would be the only chance she would have of not being starved, and who flattered himself that with such an extraordinary share of personal beauty, joined to a gentleness of Manners, and an engaging address, she might stand a good chance of pleasing some young Man who might afford to marry a Girl without a Shilling."

20 Marriage/Divorce The seeming preoccupation with money in connection with marriage in Jane Austen's work may mislead modern readers. While there is no lack of greed and shallow materialism on the part of some characters, even sensible people must devote serious thought to this topic, since it is rather foolhardy to marry without having a more-or-less guaranteed income in advance -- not only was marriage for life, but there was no social security, old age pensions, unemployment compensation, health insurance, etc.-- it is only the ridiculous Edward in Love and Freindship who extolls "the Luxury of living in every Distress that Poverty can inflict, with the object of your tenderest Affection".Jane Austen'sshallow materialism on the part of some charactersmarriage for lifeEdwardLove and Freindship"the Luxury of living in every Distress that Poverty can inflict, with the object of your tenderest Affection"

21 Answer the following Questions When you have a daughter, what characteristics will you instill in her? At the Age of 27, what can reasonably be expected of a woman? What qualities do you desire in a wife? What are some reasons why a woman might not get married? When a man and woman get divorced, what happens?
