Emma is walking in her lawn as she recollects her conversation with Mr Knightley at the ball, when Mr Churchill comes through their doors with Harriet clenching to his arm and almost ready to faint. Harriet and her friend Miss Bickerton were on a walk when a group of Gypsies approached them begging. Miss Bickerton ran away frightened but Harriet had sprained her ankle at the ball and could not run away with her, this was when Mr Churchill saw her and “saved” her from the Gypsies. This chapter is quite interesting because it evidently steps away from the stylistic features usually ubiquitous in Austen’s novels and drifts further towards conventional features seen in romance novels, such as “the damsel in distress”. Similarly, the entrance of the Gypsies in this chapter also seems a little illusive as it differs from the realism we usually see in her books. Despite the integration of conventional themes of romantic literature and the extraordinary nature of such an occurrence, the narrator gave no indication of such a relationship stemming between Harriet and Mr Churchill, which could be due to Austen’s attempt of representing Emma’s development in her self awareness as the protagonist, evident through; “She would not stir a step, nor drop a hint. No, she had had enough of interference”
