1. Minor Character: Select a minor character in Austen’s Pride and Prejudice and then
a) describe his or her role in (some aspect of) the novel’s plot and
b) analyze his or her relation to one or perhaps two of the novel’s main characters.
For this essay, focus narrowly on a scene or narrative sequence in which the minor character appears and carefully show how Austen portrays this character in terms of style, voice, and narrative space.
