The concern with getting daughters married into good families pervades jane austen's pride and prejudice and forms a large part of the social mannerisms that the novel mocks. in which lines in this excerpt does one of the bennet parents make an ironically false claim about having gone to great lengths to achieve that goal?

The theme of marriage is prevailing in the novel "Pride and Prejudice;" a novel by Jane Austen.

Explanation:

From the very beginning of the novel this theme was depicted to the reader,

"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife..."

Though the topic of marriage is serious one, but the author had in an ironical manner portrayed the views of marriage that society have towards it. It is considered a business deal between the two families rather than love being the factor for the marriage.

As other parents, Mr. and Mrs. Bennet are also concerned about the marriage of their five daughters. (Though it is only Mrs. Bennet who makes much of the effort for the same, Mr.s Bennet just sits down in his library.)

The lines in which we get the glimpse of ironical false claim of Mrs. Bennet going to length to achieve the goal of successful marriage of their daughters is found in the last Chapter of the book (61) and first few lines, quoted below,

"HAPPY for all her maternal feelings was the day on which Mrs. Bennet got rid of her two most deserving daughters. With what delighted pride she afterwards visited Mrs. Bingley, and talked of Mrs. Darcy, may be guessed. I wish I could say, for the sake of her family, that the accomplishment of her earnest desire in the establishment of so many of her children produced so happy an effect as to make her a sensible, amiable, well-informed woman for the rest of her life; though perhaps it was lucky for her husband, who might not have relished domestic felicity in so unusual a form, that she still was occasionally nervous and invariably silly."

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
