Lady Augusta Bracknell in The Importance of Being ErnestThe most memorable character and the one who has a huge impact on the audience is Lady Augusta Bracknell. Wilde's audience would have identified more with his stance and bearing. Wilde humorously makes her the instrument of conflict and much of satire. It serves the plot and theme of the play well. She is the strong hand that forces the entire play to move forward with a happy ending.. Overall, Lady Bracknell is first and foremost a symbol of Victorian seriousness and the unhappiness that comes with it. She is powerful, arrogant, ruthless in the extreme, conservative and correct. In many ways, it represents Wilde's views on the negativity of the Victorian upper class, conservative and repressive values, and power. His opinions and manner betray a careful and calculated way of speaking. He is able to go back and forth with the other characters on witty epigrams and social jokes. Despite her current position, Lady Bracknell was not always a member of the upper class; she was a social climber intent on marrying into the aristocracy. As a former member of the underclass, he represents the righteousness of those who were once excluded. Because she is now Lady Bracknell, she has opinions on society, marriage, religion, money, illness, death, and respectability. It is another of Wilde's inventions to present his satire on these topics. So, talking about her importance to the plot, we can see that she is the person who raises many important questions and ultimately she is the one who has the power to answer them. This way, it guides the game to move towards the destination.
