for it seems to be a new idea Written by Stephanie (2/17/2011 10:02 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, Fits in with theme of "upward mobility anxiety", penned by Delories

That is interesting, Delories. I never thought past the obvious class issues in Emma to a focus on the specifics of changing of one's class for a higher one! Already we have examples of that (although, no extremes; most are from a less wealthy state within the class they are still rooted within).

When does Emma take offense at an implication about Mrs. Weston?

(May I thank you all for an excellent group read so far? New ideas are tripping around merrily in my brain -- I am having a fun time!)
