Prejudices in Regency and Victorian England

The analysis focuses on prejudices depicted in Elizabeth Gaskell's "North and South" and Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice," categorizing them by gender, space, and class. It investigates how these prejudices are constructed within the narratives and examines their underlying causes. The thesis further explores how characters confront and overcome these biases, aiming to provide a structured overview of the prejudices present in both novels and comparing the characters' responses to them.
