We discussed the different viewpoints in Pride and Prejudice, and in Rossetti's poems. Rossetti has a very negative view of men and thinks they are worthless, whereas Jane Austen gives men a purpose, to marry, be it for love or for security. There are different viewpoints from each character in Pride and Prejudice. For example Catherine believes you should marry for security and comfort, however Jane and Mr Bennet think marriage should be based around love and affection. Elizabeth and Mr Darcy are undecided and are not even sure love exsists until they fall for each other and their opinion changes.
