So, in my last post, I talk about what Pemeberley symbolized in the book. Well, now, I have also decided that Elizabeth's visit to Pemberley and her love of the beauty of it foreshadows her eventual discovery of her love of it's owner, Darcy. She loves the beauty and serenity of it all and is stuck by its openness and lack of decorations everywhere to prove the owners wealth (unlike at Rosings). She runs into Darcy here, and is also stuck by his openness and civility. Pemberley, just like Darcy, opens so many her eyes to the things she was ignorant of before. One of them being her true feelings for Darcy, which at one point startles her so much that she has to remind herself that she does not regret turning down his offer of marriage. Ahh, young love...
