Hi. Here's a site that gives a totally fresh insight into literature in general at and Pride and Prejudice in particular at http://humanscience.wikia.com/wiki/Pride_and_Prejudice. It studies Pride and Prejudice as a mirror of life, and attempts to infer insights into the character of life through the circumstances, characters and events in the story.

The link you have provided contains wonderful and original insights into the action, the characters and the nature of life. It is striking to note how life has foreshadowed the final outcome of the story even at the beginning through the apparently chance meeting of all the characters at Meryton. We often fail to notice such correspondences and when we do we dismiss it as artistic device. The articles on Human Science reveal that it is actually the artistic device of Life itself!
