Zásady pro vypracování
The thesis analyzes the different types of marriages in the novels Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen and considers what possibilities the main heroines have for achieving their desired marriages. It delves into the complexities and nuances of the various types of marriages and examines the limitations, obstacles, and transformations that the heroines undergo, as well as how they navigate societal conventions and ultimately achieve their goals. By examining the two novels the thesis will explore whether the two books complement each other on the issue or if there might be a change in how the theme of female strategies in relation to marriage is depicted.
