Dictionary Definition : Laura: Also known as "Solveig", her internet pseudonym, this female specimen of Homo Sapiens founded the Literary Cabinet world. One can spot "Laura," by the fun she has grading papers and drinking coffee, with triple coffee consumption ever since she quit smoking. Like another species, Homo Sapiens Zarasahanous, she enjoys picking at the extreme Twilight fans. This specimen is particularly fond of procrastinating, as most of the other species of the Literary Cabinet Universe are.

| I am writing a paper about the different types of women encountered in Jane Austen's two most famous novels, i.e. "Pride&Prejudice" and "Sense&Sensibility". When I read these texts, I find again and again that there are categories of characters, both among men and women. I have therefore divided the women in "heroines", "friend" and "(potential) enemies", each with subcategories.
Do you feel similar? And if yes, where would you place the women in the novels, are they friends, foes, or perhaps unclassifiable? Also, what would you call the categories? | |
