What estimate have you formed of the character of Mr. Darcy? Do you think that, in portraying him, Jane Austen has portrayed an incredible person?

A Handsome Man, with a Disagreeable DispositionWe meet Mr. Darcy quite early in the novel. In fact, we meet him at the very outset on the occasion of an assembly which is held in the town of Meryton and which is attended by all the leading families of the neighboured. Mr. Darcy is described by the author as a fine figure of a man, and as a tall person with handsome features and a noble bearing.
