Introduction

Chronology
13
Chapter
1:
Background on Jane Austen
1.
Rural Gentry
16
Gary Kelly
The growing mobility of the middle and upper classes is
shown in Jane Austen s family and her novels.
2.
Jane Austen: Class in Life and Work
24
John Lauber
Jane Austen s Pride and Prejudice reflects much of the
class distinctions in her life. Some of her brothers, like
their father, were able to rise in class through the spon¬
sorship of wealthier relatives.
3.
What Class Meant for Women
31
Marilyn Butler
Although Jane Austen never married, she
—
like her hero¬
ine, Elizabeth Bennet
—
was involved in the same social
events tied to courtship, which inevitably involved rank
and money.
Chapter
2:
Pride and Prejudice
and Class Issues
1.
Levels of Rank
42
David Spring
The world that Austen writes about consisted of the aris¬
tocracy, the landed gentry, the unlanded gentry, and pro¬
fessionals, the last sometimes referred to as the bour¬
geois.
2.
Rank and Human Relationships
51
Thomas Keymer
Social rank is intrinsic to Austen s Pride and Prejudice,
forming the single most important issue in personal rela¬
tions.
3.
Courtship and Class
57
David Monaghan
Courtship is the main concern of Pride and Prejudice,
and class divisions are often the main impediments to
marriage.
4.
Morality and Social Distinctions
65
John McAleer
Austen is concerned with social climbing and class limi¬
tations but stresses that rank means nothing without or¬
der and morality.
5.
Money, Class, and Marriage
74
Edward Copeland
Pride and Prejudice, focused on the middle class, was
written and set in a time of extreme economic flux.
6.
The Big Bow-Wow of Social Change
81
Christopher Kent
Although Austen does not specifically mention the great
social upheavals of her day that transformed the class
system, these events are in the background of Pride and
Prejudice.
7.
Changes in Class Structure and Values
87
Terry Eagleton
Instead of wanting to totally reform the social system,
Austen hoped for a return to the traditional values of ci¬
vility, propriety, and good manners.
8.
Distinctions Within the Circle of Family
98
and Friends
Juliet McMaster
Not only were there different shades of rank among the
untitled gentry, but also, there were class distinctions
within families, creating the entailment so crucial to the
novel.
9.
Male Power and Female Talk
106
Deborah Kaplan
In Pride and Prejudice, gender figures prominently in a
class divide within the upper and middle classes.
10.
Defying Social Restrictions
113
Emily Auerbach
In Pride and Prejudice, Austen challenges the ideas
about class held by the inhabitants of her village, who
turn young people into pawns to raise family status and
fortune through marriage.
Chapter
3:
Contemporary Perspectives
on Class Issues
1.
The Uneven Playing Field
124
Janny Scott and David Leonhardt
Despite the existence of fewer class barriers in the United
States, class divisions, largely based on wealth, create an
uneven playing field for those who want better lives.
2.
Marriages That Cross Class Lines
133
Tamar
Lewin
Greater strains are often placed on married couples from
different social classes.
3.
Girls and Classism
140
Stephanie Jones
School girls today are wounded by the classism that per¬
sists in American society.
4.
Single Women and Happiness
150
Sarah Mahoney
Women who have not married are not necessarily lonely
and frustrated as many people automatically assume.
5.
The Widening Gap
157
Chris Spannos
Policies that make the few members of the elite richer
and the great masses of the poor poorer are ruining the
United States.
