Character Analysis- Emma

What is there to say about Emma Woodhouse? A LOT of things. The author describes her as "handsome, clever and rich,with a comfortable home and happy disposition.” This statement says a lot about Emma. She is a little stubborn and thinks a little too well of herself. Emma's mom died when she was very young so Emma has very few memories of her. She is very flirtatious and claims she will stay single forever. However, this dream is short lived because she then realizes that she is in love with Mr. Knightly. Mr. Knightly is a neighbour and he is also Emma's brother-in-law's brother. In other words Mr. Knightly's brother is married to Emma's sister, Isabella. There is lots more to say about Emma, but I recommend you read the book.
