Austen satirizes the concept of marriage in the 1800s. She portrays it as a social ladder, a meaningless preoccupation of women with it, and it's rules.

Pride & Prejudice is a nice book. I don't think Jane austen made references to real life famous people, event, artwork, or concepts.

the author Jane Austen wrote fiction yet you should must trust that there have been genuine characters who inspired her writing regardless of the very undeniable actuality that none were reported. She particular had a options for dry humour and the strategies of the Victorian age.

I know she did in some other novels (especially Persuasion--the war with Napoleon--and Northanger Abbey--Ann Radcliffe's The Mysteries of Udolfo) but I can't think of any in P&P. It was written ten or fifteen years before it ever got published, so they'd probably be out-of-date anyway.
