of literature as the fine art of introducing remarkable characters’ traits. This study will use the concept of emotional intelligence introduced by Daniel Goleman, in
1995. The psychological approach is important because without knowing the characters’ personality, it is impossible to understand the emotion that the
characters express in the story. Therefore, to analyze the characters’ personality development in Pride and Prejudice, one must have a good understanding about
the basic knowledge of id, ego and superego from the theory of psychoanalysis and emotion from the theory of Emotional Intelligence EI.
