dc.description.abstract | Jane Austen’s six novels have been the starting point of many sequels, continuations,
and adaptations. One of such is Eligible by Curtis Sittenfeld, a rewriting of Pride and
Prejudice set in 21st-century U.S.A., where the search for an eligible bachelor becomes a
TV reality show. This essay analyzes how Sittenfeld modifies Austen’s characterization
of the main characters and their matrimonial quest taking into account how marriage
has changed since the 19th century, exploring what elements persist and what
adjustments need to be made in order to bring the spirit of the original to our current
days and if such an attempt is ultimately successful. | spa |
