| dcterms.abstract | While Jane Austen’s novels were published over two hundred years ago, her stories continue to captivate audiences through print and the screen. There seems to be a growing tradition of adapting certain novels, such as Pride and Prejudice, over other ones like, Northanger Abbey, Persuasion, and Mansfield Park. In this paper I explore how the former three novels differ from Pride and Prejudice from their heroines and heroes to the romantic relationships between the two protagonists. Then I take into consideration the large impact of Colin Firth’s Mr. Darcy in influencing Austen’s other heroes such as Captain Wentworth, Henry Tilney and Edward Bertram, by giving them more emotions and love speeches. All of these elements help prove why these three novels are often adapted less frequently than the forever popular Pride and Prejudice. | |
