CONFLICTS BETWEEN DARCY AND WICKHAM
We know form chapter 15 that Darcy and Wickham know each other.
‘Darcy and Wickham seem to recognise one another, but both look discomforted by the meeting’.
The first conflict that arises between the two men is when Wickham informs Elizabeth about Darcy’s behaviour towards him.
- Wickham was a favourite of Darcy’s late father, who promised him a good living in the church. Darcy has deprived Wickham of his career as a clergy man. This is Wickhams story.
