Through Lady Bracknell's monologue, Wilde is mocking the hypocrisy of the Victorian society and their thoughts that money is the most important thing in life. Lady Bracknell didn't approve of Cecily and her marriage to Jack until she hears that Cecily is going to inherit a lot of money when she comes of age.

Lady Bracknell is a bit dissatisfied with Cecily but when she heard about Cecily’s inheritance, she gave her consent right away in Cecily and Algernon’s engagement. Wilde only showed here the discrimination when it comes to marriage: Social class and economic standing matters in marrying a person and the underdog remains at the bottom.

<u>"I understood that he spoke of the great lake of ears of corn that all of us Indians have in our heart and from which we get tiny drops of moonlight . . . "</u>

I believe its this excerpt. It seems to have a much more understanding to me that it also explains the connection between human and nature much more efficient to me than the others tho.


I hope this helps! If that's wrong. I'm terribly sorry.
