Document Summary
Austen provides us with a variety of men who behave badly in their own self-interest (i. e. lecture 8: emma ii. Churchill: a variety of these kinds of men, mr. weston"s son but does not have the surname weston, makes himself seem attracted to emma to cover up duplicity (secretly engaged to. Jane fairfax: can"t announce this to his father, mr. w, or aunt, mrs. churchill, bc he would be disinherited, dangerous figure; villainous, not a stupid man (perhaps unlike wickham or willoughby), knows what he"s doing. Pianoforte: jane doesn"t want to draw attention to herself or relationship with churchill, churchill buying her the pianoforte embarrasses and teases her bc she doesn"t want this sort of attention. Even the person churchill loves, he is cruel to: he"s also cruel to emma bc manipulation. People may fall in love, but have to be careful how they act when they do.
