Criteria Feedback
- You state a clear research question and return to it in the conclusion, which gives the investigation a definite direction.
- Your chosen examples from Elizabeth Bennet’s interactions with Collins, Darcy, and Lady Catherine are relevant and well aligned to your topic.
- You show initiative by using linguistic ideas such as politeness, face-threatening acts, and Grice’s maxims to frame the discussion.
- Your topic is still quite broad, so the focus sometimes feels more general than tightly controlled.
- The method is only implied rather than clearly explained, especially in how you selected scenes and source material.
- Some sections drift into background summary, which weakens the precision of the investigation.

- You show clear awareness of major themes such as entailment, marriage, class hierarchy, and Elizabeth’s social position.
- Your use of terminology such as irony, politeness, face-threatening acts, and speech acts gives your discussion a useful analytical vocabulary.
- There are some factual inaccuracies, including character naming and historical detail, which reduce confidence in the precision of your knowledge.
