Mrs. Bennett: Austen's Punching Bag

This essay should be highly rewarded for its intricate and fresh ideas. The title was extremely clever and catchy especially because Austen's satire "punches" the reader. Though there were some thin areas that lacked proper quote analysis, the essay often pulls the reader in many directions with so many firm points. Unfortunately, this detracts the reader from the main point. Though I loved the second opening sentence about Mrs. Bennett's happiness, which is evidently dependent upon the financial security of her daughters, the first opening sentence is too convoluted and lengthy, thus boring the reader. Without an quick  snatch, the writing suffers and can only offer ambitious knowledge sporatically.  Immediately following their respective topic sentences, the first and second quotes are awkward because they lack proper quote context (set up). Additionally, the third quote should be shortened. Still, there were minimal grammar errors. Passive language, incorrect quote citations, and colloquial language, however, did reveal  that the writer needed to touch up on some grammar.Regardless, the ideas were substantial and I must  agree that Mrs. Bennett's multi dimensions are imperative to eliminate prejudice against her. These other facets allow the reader  to consider, and hopefully reevaluate, the reasons that Mrs. Bennett responds in such a seeemingly superficial way. In fact, in my own essay I used some similar ideas about Mrs. Bennett's myopic pursuit, thus accounting for her superficiality.
