Characters Plot
Pride and Prejudice , of course, serves as a primary source of that inspiration, if only because the eponymous character, an outwardly stern but secretly kind man of exacting manner and particular tastes, so matter-of-factly reflects Mr. Darcy, the most enduring of men from Austen's oeuvre.
The ‘love across class divide’ plot certainly reminds me of Pride and Prejudice .
Our schemer might also be in the vein and a subversion of the title character from Austen's Emma, as she's a matchmaker here—albeit with mean-spirited intentions.
