How does elizabeth forthrightness and indepence represent an attack on conversation with Lady Catherine de Bou

Question

forthrightness, independence, conversation, Lady Catherine de Bourgh.

Answer 1

well, this really belongs in book and authors . . .

Elizabeth has nothing to gain from kissing up to Lady Catherine. She does not seek to marry anyone of that high an estate. She is able to speak truthfully and freely to her, without fear of serious reprisal. Lady Catherine has nothing to hold over her.

It is this that drives Lady Catherine insane when she gets wind of Fitzwilliam's plan to wed Lizzie. Lizzie has done nothing to win her favor over and Lady Catherine knows that she has no power over either of them.

It is, in fact, frustrating that the one thing Lady Catherine wanted, her daughter's marriage to D'Arcy, is thwarted by Lizzie's independence. It was that forthrightness and independence that attracted him to Lizzie and turned him off to Lady Catherine's daughter.
