Pride &
Prejudice:
The movement of Romanticism believed in abandoning restraint, embracing feelings/emotions, and the celebration of natural beauty. Austen, on the other hand, maintained the traditional thought of discipline and order. She also refrained from lengthy descriptions of her settings, which would have been opposite of a Romantic’s perspective. In short, Austen remained separate from the Romanticism movement in her work. Readers will also note that Austen chooses not to include the political and social events that would have existed in England at this time. It could be argued that the political intrigues of court and the Napoleonic wars would have been distant from the lives of those depicted in Pride & Prejudice.
