Yes, her stance at the end only tips Elizabeth to think of Darcy more, but I think that Lizzy was already there. With Lady Catherine "transmorgified" (to use a Calvin :) term), not only would Rosings be a better place, but you could also see a Kate Maxwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04342220424771084070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6589226281542951200.post-88212399118010101772010-04-12T15:39:14.445-04:002010-04-12T15:39:14.445-04:00Hi emiv.

Lady Catherine is definitely a strong candidate for neutralization, even though her interference helps Darcy and Elizabeth in the end. I really enjoy the sequels where she recognizes the error of her ways. More frequently, she is portrayed as even more horrible than Austen made her.
