According to Austen, is it better to be a Jane or an Elizabeth? Give evidence to support you answer.
(I am stuck in the middle)...I really do not know who is better. Every person has their own thoughts and make the actions for a reason. Jane is nice and sweet BUT she just agrees with everything and does what she is told too. For example with her mom, Jane obeys her and went to Mr. Bingley's house. At the same time it is not good to be Jane because she does not see the bad side of life. Jane does not see the danger that can happen and lives in a fantasy world were everything and everyone is nice.
Elizabeth on the other hand is more of judging people without knowing their reasons or knowing that person. Elizabeth is more on the real world were she knows their are problems and people who lie. She is no sweet girl that can easily get convince right away like Jane.
From Elizabeth and Jane I cannot choose who is better because both have personalities that are to much. For example Jane is to sweet and Elizabeth is just a girl who has anger inside of her and judges people before knowing what really happened.
I like your title! lol.
