Help with Thesis Statement

Write your thesis statement using your answers/response to the prompt.

Prompt: Historical analysis views a work of art as a product of the period in which it was produced. Jane Austen was writing in England during the nineteenth century, during a period of great political and social change. In what ways do beliefs of the time about rank, social class, proper manners, and marriage shape Pride and Prejudice? Think of the choices Elizabeth makes in regard to marriage, and her actions, speeches, and attitudes toward other characters in the novel (especially Mrs. Bennet, Mr. Darcy, Mr. Bennet, Mr. Collins, Caroline Bingley, and Lady Catherine de Bourgh). How does Elizabeth’s behavior reflect social changes?
