Pride and Prejudice

Jane Austen novel. You know, it's just amazing to be able to read this Jane Austen novel. And Mr. Darcy was a very, very, very, very powerful man.

I love those books I thought it was a good thing

did you know those writers had a colonial mindset they were racist and bigots and are subconsciously brainwashing you

Jane Austen will recognize is the exclamation given by both Lydia Bennett and her mother in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice.

I want to watch Pride and Prejudice tonight. Right? ... I hate Pride and Prejudice. Did you watch it? Pride and Prejudice? Yeah. I've seen it years ago.

But Michael Che's point isn't just that Jane Austen is doing all this in her novels, Emma and Pride and Prejudice and Mansfield Park and Sense and Sensibility.

So like, for example, like in Pride and Prejudice.

But I remember rationalizing it to myself as a modernday Pride and Prejudice.

For those who don't remember the plot of her book Pride and Prejudice, Mr. Darcy, who has been promised in marriage to his wealthy cousin, falls instead for Elizabeth Bennet, a woman of modest means.

Mr. Darcy is engaged to my daughter. Now what have you to say?

Only this, if that is the case you can have no reason to suppose he would make an offer to me. You selfish girl!

This union has been planned since their infancy. Do you think it can be prevented by a young woman of inferior birth?

Heaven and earth are the shades of Pemberley to be thus polluted. Now tell me once and for all, are you engaged to him? I am not.

I first became aware of Vivek Ramaswamy at an event in 2021. Like Jane Austin's Mr. Wickham from Pride and Prejudice, he said you did the following, which was a line from Mr. Bennett, Elizabeth Bennett's dad as portrayed here in the 1995 version of the movie Pride and Prejudice.

Polls sound sexual. Pride and prejudice. Prejudice is fine, but pride is a term that has been co-opted by the game. It's disgusting.

Like, you know, a factory worker in Idaho may not have the time to sit down and read a book like, you know, sapiens or, you know, so, or pride and prejudice with Thomas.

There are whole novels written about this. Jane Austen has been writing. Maybe she writes about this better than anybody else at all. Just talking about sort of the rules of polite society and what exists behind those rules.

the relationship between Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy in Pride and Prejudice is kind of sets the bar for what a relationship... should look like.

If you want the most, the biggest touchstone culturally for this era is Jane Austin. Jane Austin is a contemporary of Bo. She's born, I think, two and a half years before him. But they live in London basically during the same time. And she never references him directly.

I read a very detailed article by some some scholars with the Jane Austin fan club who I trust to know their shit, who argue like she didn't reference him directly. But most of the male characters in her novels were either based on him or reactions to him.

So that's that's an argument that people make. Right. I'm not a Jane Austin scholar, but these Jane Austin scholars make that argument.

Right. So Bo grows up idolizing Tom Sheridan and specifically idolizing the fact that he earns a lot of respect because he's funny and kind of a dick. He's going to learn from Tom that like that's sort of how you make a place in yourself in societies. You learn how to put people down in a way that's so funny. They don't really get angry at you.

Novels were another major place where this kind of culture spread. Jane Austen is a big part of this.

I mean, I'm fond of paraphrasing the famous lines from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. You know, it appears that any nation in possession of an empire must be in want of an obelisk.

One writer who used the dash in this way was Jane Austen. In Pride and Prejudice, published in 1813, the arrival of the handsome Wickham causes a stir ... Austen uses dashes to redact the letters in the name of the army regiment he is about to join.

one of the books we had to read was Pride and Prejudice. I hate that book. I think if Jane Austen was a good writer, she'd be a Bronte sister.

I'll read that if you read Pride and Prejudice.

He read Pride and Prejudice in one night. He stayed up all night reading it.

And he wrote a review on Goodreads about Pride and Prejudice.

Sandy says is her drug of choice.

The mud-splattered cover reads, Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.

Reading Austen reminds him of his school days, but it's also a window to a time and society untouched by the horror he's surrounded by.

But for now he is immersed in the comforting world of the quick-witted heroine Elizabeth Bennett and the brooding hero Mr. Darcy.

In a 2003 BBC poll to find the UK's best love novel, it comes second behind Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings.

In 1943, he is consoled by his daughter reading him Pride and Prejudice.

So what I can't let go of this week is this weekend is actually a very big weekend for fans of the 2005 Pride and Prejudice movie featuring Keira Knightley. ... I think I saw it at some point, read the books, like, you know, but it's not my thing, but, you know, I understand why. ... I watched it years and years ago, but now I was a Succession superfan, so I need to rewatch it so I can get the Matthew McFadden whiplash of Mr. Darcy and Tom Womskans. ... I would say for lovers of this movie, it is like, there's a whole subculture of people who are obsessed with this movie. I'm a member of that subculture, so I'm very excited.
