Julia Bertram Character Analysis

Julia is the younger daughter of Sir Thomas and Lady Bertram, and is Fanny’s cousin. Julia is described as quick to laugh and has a bit of a dramatic flair. She is very close with her older sister Maria, but often competes with her, especially for male attention. Julia has a crush on Henry, and is upset when he begins to favor Maria over her. Julia does not take part in the play, because she doesn’t get the part that she wants, but it is during the theatre production that Julia meets Mr. Yates, with whom she elopes at the end of the book.

Chapter 21 Quotes

It was a very proper wedding. The bride was elegantly dressed– the two bridesmaids were duly inferior– her father gave her away– her mother stood with salts in her hands, expecting to be agitated– her aunt tried to cry…Nothing could be objected to when it came under the discussion of the neighbourhood, except that the carriage which conveyed the bride and bridegroom and Julia from the church door to Sotherton, was the same chaise which Mr. Rushworth had used for a twelvemonth before. In every thing else the etiquette of the day might stand the strictest investigation.
