The higher class who in the book are represented by the Bingley’s and Mr. Darcy are the arrogant and cocky. They are influenced by their money and have influences because of their money. They are also enough information of how rich people act and why they act the way they do. We can clearly understand why the actions of the upper class are made and what influenced them to do what they did. It is always about the money and the social status people want to maintain.
In this book Elizabeth is the character who demonstrates that no matter what social class you belong to there is no need of acting as if you have something you don’t have.
