This is a theory that has not been used in published research to examine the parents in Austen’s novels. In fact, in the studies of Northanger Abbey and Sense and Sensibility, where the parents play little of an actual role within the novel, past critics have had little to say about the parents of the heroines. The critic who has come the closest is Bernard Paris, who examined character and conflict in Jane Austen’s novels. In this paper, only the parenting style practiced with the heroine will be examined. The relationships between parents and the children, the way in which parents raise their children–in Austen’s case, the daughters–generally has a major influence on the marriage choices that these daughters make.
