Synopsis
:
This study explores the feminist perspective on motherhood in Jane Austen's Pride
and Prejudice and Prima Santika's Three Weddings and Jane Austen,
concentrating on the influence of mother figures on their daughters' romantic and
wedding options. The central issue is how different mother approaches reflect
broader societal expectations and individual freedom. The research uses a
qualitative analysis method, directed by feminist theory and the attachment theory
of John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth, alongside the comparative literature theory
by Wellek and Warren. The findings show that Mrs. Bennet's obsession with
securing beneficial marriages for her daughters mirrors early 19th-century English
societal norms, where wedding was crucial for financial security and social status.
In contrast, Bu Sri's modern approach stresses individual autonomy and emotional
well-being, balancing traditional values with individual preference. This study
indicates that promoting individual autonomy, providing dynamic support, and
balancing traditions with modern parenting can encourage healthier family
dynamics.
