About Mr. Darcy
Fitzwilliam Darcy Esquire, generally referred to as Mr. Darcy, is one of the two central characters in Jane Austen's 1813 novel Pride and Prejudice. He is an archetype of the aloof romantic hero, and a romantic interest of Elizabeth Bennet, the novel's protagonist. Brooding, reserved, and magnetic, Darcy initially deeply offends and vexes Elizabeth, but their paths diverge and his character deepens as the two grow closer and mend their differences. Usually referred to only as "Mr. Darcy" or "Darcy" by characters and the narrator, his first name is mentioned twice in the novel. Mr. Darcy has been portrayed in film by Colin Firth, Matthew Macfadyen, and Laurence Olivier.
