And we see the same in the Dashwoods... Written by Trish W. (9/19/2009 12:45 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Charlotte more like her mother, penned by LouAnn

Marianne, the younger, is more like her mother than Elinor. Maybe Jane had her own psychological theories on birth order and the differences between first born, middles and last borns?

The phenomena is also seen in Persuasion in how similar Elizabeth is to Sir Walter.

Edward, to me, seems to have the typical "middle child syndrome."
