Read the excerpt from pride and prejudice by jane austen. it is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife. however little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighbourhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered as the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters. how does point of view affect the tone of the excerpt? the narrator’s description of the families’ certainty creates an admiring tone. the narrator’s understanding of the families’ feelings creates a mocking tone. the narrator’s presentation of the social customs of the time creates an objective tone. the narrator’s knowledge of the characters’ situation creates a sympathetic tone.
