Lady Catherine de Bourgh
Lady Catherine de Bourgh is a wealthy, haughty, and overbearing woman who is the aunt of Mr. Darcy. She is a foil to Elizabeth Bennet, the protagonist of Pride and Prejudice, in that she represents everything that Elizabeth despises. Lady Catherine is constantly trying to control the lives of those around her, and she is particularly determined to marry her nephew to a woman of her choosing. She is a formidable opponent, but Elizabeth is more than capable of holding her own.
