Pride and perjudice- Social class



In the book we read there were explained many situations that make us a little idea of the ancient social class and the difference between characters according to their incomes. The most surprising thing I saw in the novel was the interest showed by the mother to find a rich husband for her daughters. In that age rich families could only got married with other high class' families to preserve the richness and the reputation. Nowadays it's different in my opinion, I think that it can keep happening in some families but we can find some cases where a rich man meets a nice middle class girl and they get married, for example our prince Felipe and Leticia. I don't know the current situation in Britain but according to the video we saw in class there are still families who have a lot of money and they live in palaces, all inherited from their ancestors. They have different manners because they are educated different than the rest.
