This research paper explores the pivotal role of marriage in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, analyzing how the institution shapes characters’ social status, personal growth, and romantic relationships. Marriage, in the novel, is not only a social expectation but also a reflection of individual values, desires, and the evolving gender roles in Regency England. Through the lens of characters like Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy, the paper examines how marriage serves as a medium for character development, societal critique, and the negotiation of love versus financial stability. Austen uses marriage as a thematic device to critique societal norms, presenting both romantic and pragmatic approaches to union. The study also delves into the complex relationships between love, wealth, and marriage, highlighting how these elements influence character choices and outcomes.
