Resumen
Jane Austen es una escritora británica conocida fundamentalmente por sus seis novelas, en las que analiza el papel de la mujer hacia el final del siglo dieciocho y principios del diecinueve, y critica a la clase social británica llamada aristocracia rural. El objetivo de este Trabajo de Fin de Grado es el de analizar las plausibles tendencias feministas que se pueden encontrar en una de sus obras más populares, Orgullo y prejuicio. La posición injusta de la mujer por la sociedad patriarcal, la clasificación jerárquica de la sociedad y los matrimonios beneficiosos son los temas que se tratarán en el trabajo.
Jane Austen is an English novelist who is essentially known for her six novels, which discuss the role of women at the end of the eighteenth century and the beginning of the nineteenth century, and criticise the British social class known as landed gentry. The aim of this Final Degree Project is to analyse the plausible feminist tendencies that can be found in one of her most popular novels, Pride and Prejudice. The unfair position of women due to the patriarchal society, the hierarchical division of society and favourable marriages are the main subject matters that will be developed in this essay.
