Abstract	The novel "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen tells the story of the Bennet family, focusing on Mr. and Mrs. Bennet and their daughter Elizabeth. The novel explores the theme of family solidarity and the strength of women who challenged the cultural norms of the time, especially regarding marriage. Elizabeth faces many challenges but is able to overcome them with her intelligence and determination and find happiness. This article examines two questions related to the novel: "What feminist issues are reflected in 'Pride and Prejudice'?" and "What are the dominant roles of women in the novel?" Through our analysis, we hope to provide insight into the role of women in the early nineteenth century, when they were seen as weak and lacking the abilities of men. Our findings show that "Pride and Prejudice" offers valuable insights into feminism and helps readers better understand the struggles and contributions of women during this period. We hope that our analysis will give readers a deeper understanding of the novel and the importance of feminism in our society today.
