How was Elinor's sense of propriety upset? Identify at least two examples from the novel in your response. Your answer should be at least one hundred words.

Answer and Explanation:

"Sense and Sensibility" is a novel by author Jane Austen. One of the main characters, Elinor, would be the representation of the "sense" in the title. It is not that she is not a sensitive woman. Elinor has feelings just like her mother and her sister, Marianne. However, those two characters allow themselves to actually feel and show how they feel, while Elinor maintains her propriety. She behaves in a prudent, careful, and polite manner, taking care of things and people no matter what.

Yet, there were two times in the novel where Elinor's sense of propriety was upset, and she couldn't help but show her feelings. First, she had a hard time concealing her emotions when she heard of Edward and Lucy's engagement. Second, she displayed her emotions when Edward showed up to her house all of a sudden, after Elinor had been told he had gotten married. Those two times deeply affected her ability to keep her feelings in check.
