This thesis explores the social classification system and ethical tensions in Jane Austen’s novel Pride and Prejudice. It examines how rigid class distinctions and societal expectations influence the behavior, relationships, and moral decisions of the characters. Special attention is paid to the internal ethical struggles experienced by Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy, as well as the broader societal pressures that shape their actions. The study argues that Austen critiques the limitations of social hierarchy while highlighting the importance of moral development and self-awareness.
