Decoding The Dialogue

Worksheet Description

This worksheet invites students to dive into Jane Austen’s “Sense and Sensibility” through the analysis of two selected quotations. For each quotation, students will first determine which character from the novel said it.

By engaging with these quotations, students will gain a deeper understanding of the novel’s themes, characters, and the nuances of Austen’s language. This exercise encourages critical thinking and literary analysis, fostering an appreciation of the rich dialogue and social commentary found in “Sense and Sensibility.”
