Emma essay #3 - question

Hi ladies-


REMEMBER: re-do's are due MONDAY.

Okay, and here we go on the next one!  Remember to look critically at both question and quote, determine the relevant events / symbols / characters / supporting quotes, and finally considering which critical commentary would most effectively address the issues at hand.


"The first error, and the worst, lay at her door. It was foolish, it was wrong, to take so active a part in bringing any two people together. It was adventuring too far, assuming too much, making light of what ought to be serious—a trick of what ought to be simple. She was quite concerned and ashamed, and resolved to do such things no more."


Discuss some of the effects of Austen's use of relationships, riddles and games in Emma.


I'd like to see a plan and a few comments on Monday.  Let's make this one due Thursday 3rd March.
