Text of the page (random words):
s often touted as one of the most enduring romantic heroes in literature largely in my opinion because he actually changes his ways for the woman he loves yet before he earns his romantic hero stripes he s very far from perfect granted elizabeth s wilful misunderstanding causes much of his initial antagonism but there is plenty of which to disapprove in his character at the beginning in austen s words he is haughty reserved and fastidious continually giving offence he owns himself to having a resentful temper and admits at the end of the novel to having been selfish all his life given how much we all come to adore him it is conveniently easy to forget quite how unlikeable he is to begin with austen doesn t show us his descent into resentment and conceit we only see his scramble out of it after elizabeth s rejection at hunsford nonetheless my question has always been how did he end up so thoroughly disagreeable without forfeiting the esteem of his nearest and dearest it s true that those we re closest to aren t exactly predisposed to look for our faults thus darcy s loved ones seem wholly oblivious or indifferent to his flaws we see bingley tease him for standing about in a stupid manner at the meryton assembly but teasing is a far cry from condemnation we hear colonel fitzwilliam accuse darcy of not making small talk with strangers because he will not give himself the trouble yet there is no admonition in this pronouncement only vague amusement even caroline bingley is blind to darcy s faults claiming he may hug himself because he has no defects at which elizabeth can laugh it takes elizabeth a relative stranger to see the imperfections in darcy s character this led me to wonder how far down the path of bitterness and conceit an essentially good character could travel before anybody tapped them on the shoulder and said excuse me but you really are behaving like an almighty twit enter jane bennet similarly to darcy she is inherently good and surrounded by loving friends and family none of whom are anticipating that she will undergo any remarkable character alteration but perhaps they ought to have because as elizabeth tells us people themselves alter so much that there is something new to be observed in them for ever p p ch9 austen s jane bennet is portrayed as sensible kind and saccharinely modest but she is not without faults she is excessively diffident something we see when she refuses to blame bingley for abandoning her insisting there had merely been an error of fancy on her side mr bennet accuses her of being too complying and elizabeth teases her with a hint of exasperation for her credulity oh you are a great deal too apt you know to like people in general you never see a fault in any body all the world are good and agreeable in your eyes i never heard you speak ill of a human being in my life i would wish not to be hasty in censuring any one but i always speak what i think i know you do and it is that which makes the wonder with your good sense to be honestly blind to the follies and nonsense of others affectation of candour is common enough one meets it every where but to be candid without ostentation or design to take the good of every body s character and make it still better and say nothing of the bad belongs to you alone p p ch24 these were the traits i accentuated in mistaken to set jane on the slippery slope away from her canonical forgiving nature some bad advice a want of perspective and certain run of the mill human sensibilities such as jealousy insecurity and disappointment soon land jane in such a muddle of resentment that she s in the middle before she knows she s begun and just as darcy s friends did jane s loved ones remain oblivious to the change in her until it s too late it s easier to read darcy s early hubris and resentment because readers never see him before he becomes that person and thus there is no comparison whereas jane bennet has been immortalised as sweetness and light since pride and prejudice first went to print watching her make bad decisions is difficult but readers shouldn t be put off i wanted jane s journey to mirror darcy s after all and we all know that after elizabeth s rejection he well and truly redeemed himself mistaken jane hasn t had the advantage of a hunsford moment but she is equally good at heart and what better proof of virtue is there than the ability to reform all she requires is a little self awareness the question that fascinates me now is will readers forgive her as readily as they did darcy the snippet below from early in the book shows how jane s disappointment diffidence jealousy and mother are beginning to work against her reason to change her outlook on life thank you everyone for dropping in today to join in the mistaken blog tour please feel free to ask me any questions in the comments section or you can contact me on any of the social media pages listed in the author bio below i d love to hear from you wednesday 20 may 1812 hertfordshire jane started when the parlour door was flung open and her mother swept in ah good you are both here said mrs bennet dropping into her favourite armchair come closer girls i would speak with you jane looked enquiringly at elizabeth who looked back at her with equal bemusement both set their work aside and moved to sit on the sofa it is clear after yesterday began mrs bennet that you are both in dire need of some direction jane i shall begin with you mr bingley arranged that picnic in your honour yet you spent most of the afternoon sitting out of games and refusing to speak to him he will think you are not interested if you continue to be so unforthcoming her mother could not have made a more distressing observation for jane was all too conscious that the easy and treasured friendship she and mr bingley once enjoyed had been eclipsed by awkwardness and reserve you like him do you not i love him then you must show it or he will never offer for you jane gasped i think what mama is trying to say elizabeth interjected reaching for jane s hand is that perhaps mr bingley needs a little encouragement if you only spoke to him a little more oh as you do jane had not meant to say the words aloud and she was sorry when elizabeth recoiled yet now it was said she found she could not regret it all day at the picnic whilst she had struggled to think of a thing to say her sister had delighted the guests and more particularly the host with her easy conversation and clever wit watching mr bingley watch her at archery had been deeply troubling akin to watching the entire neighbourhood watch them dance together at the assembly both incidents had kindled a wholly unfamiliar yet potent sentiment in her mind envy she is quite right lizzy mrs bennet said you must desist from flirting with mr bingley elizabeth s expression of pained disbelief was nothing to jane s dismay surely her dearest sister would never usurp mr bingley s attentions by design yet if her mother believed it i assure you ma am elizabeth said tightly i flirted with nobody yesterday and certainly not mr bingley indeed it grieves me that you consider me capable of it mrs bennet clicked her tongue impatiently do not get on at me girl i did not say your manner was at fault only your focus leave mr bingley alone and you speak as though i am lydia pestering the poor man for attention if mr bingley and i have become better acquainted it is only through my attempts to help you jane when you have been too shy to speak to him you have no business being friends with mr bingley her mother objected negating the necessity of jane saying the same thing no you must direct your efforts towards mr greyson elizabeth s eyes widened mr greyson why yes he likes you very well you could secure him in an instant if you would only use the same charm on him you have done with mr bingley madam i have used no charm and i do not wish to persuade mr greyson of anything mrs bennet s expression grew pinched you will do as you are told if you had done your duty and married mr collins none of this would matter then you could have flirted with whomever you chose elizabeth surged from her chair with an angry growl and stormed to the door mrs bennet followed her screeching at her even after she quitted the room about wilful ways and ingratitude elizabeth s only reply was to close the front door with excessive force mrs bennet turned back into the parlour her lips pursed and her face and neck suffused with a deep flush obstinate headstrong girl jane was unused but not entirely averse to the sense of vindication that overcame her not quite so charming now lizzy she muttered her complacency was not to last in the next moment her mother rounded on her you could learn a good deal from your sister she has gentlemen eating from the palm of her hand you would do well to take a leaf from her book before mr bingley changes his mind again and disappears off to this nova scotia place he keeps wittering on about forevermore she stomped from the room shouting for hill and jane was left to all the satisfaction of having forced her to say what gave no one any pain but herself author bio i ve always loved words reading them writing them and as my friends and family will wearily attest speaking them i dabbled in poetry during my angst ridden teenage years but it wasn t until college that i truly came to comprehend the potency of the english language that appreciation materialised into something more tangible one dark wintry evening whilst i was making a papier mâché octonauts gup a google it you ll be impressed for my son and watching a rerun of pride and prejudice on tv fired up by the remembrance of austen s genius with words i dug out my copy of the novel and in short order had been inspired to set my mind to writing in earnest i began work on a regency romance based on austen s timeless classic and my debut novel mistaken is the result the regency period continues to fascinate me and i spend a good deal of my time cavorting about there in my daydreams imagining all manner of misadventures the rest of the time i can be found at home in
