One character that I particularly liked this semester was Elizabeth Bennet from Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice." Elizabeth is characterized as independent, witty, and strong-willed. She stands out in a society where women are expected to be submissive and obedient. Elizabeth's intelligence and refusal to conform to societal norms make her a refreshing and relatable character for modern readers. Her character challenges traditional gender roles and beliefs, making her one of the most memorable characters in literature.
