Describe Elinor’s and Marianne’s responses to Marianne’s discovery that Willoughby is engaged to another woman. In your opinion, why is this a repeated theme in other novels and film?

Respuesta :

Marianne and Elinor were both shock and hurt. I think Marianne felt hurt because of Willoughby’s engagement to Miss Grey. I think she was expecting that he would choose her instead.   I think this a common scenario in most novels and movies because many women can sympathize with the scenario. Most woman would often fall for the wrong guy and meet the right guy in the end. 

Answer:

Both Elinor and Marianne were astonished and heartbroken by Willoughby's engagement to another woman. Willoughby had given Marianne such affection and gave way to intentions of a possible engagement too her. To them, it was completely out of character and not expected at all. Others that had watched Marianne and Willoughby together had assumed that both were head over heels for one another. Both seemed to have been in love and had spent every waking hour together. I believe this is a repeated theme because unfortunately, it is the reality of life. Emotions tend to put a screen over one's sight of the reality of a situation. Many times those we hold the most regard for can be very deceitful and full of empty promises. It is the fact that not everything in life is as it seems. Love sometimes can be only one-sided as our minds decide to play tricks on our perception. It gives way to the fact that life is not fair and that we will have many different attachments within our lives. As Elinor had said in the beginning of the novel that you can go years living with someone or subject to their company and only know a small amount about them or their inner feelings and views. You can also spend a small amount of time with one individual and create an everlasting connection. However, people change and transform and may fall in love just as quickly as they fall out of it.
