George Knightley
George Knightley is a principal character depicted by Jane Austen in her novel ''Emma'', written in 1815. He is a very wealthy landowner and a lifetime friend of Emma's, though he is nearly seventeen years older than she. He enjoys correcting Emma, as Emma observes in chapter 1.
==Character==
A kind and compassionate person, Mr. Knightley portrays good judgment, high moral character and maturity in contrast to Emma's still-maturing character. One incident which displays this is his disappointment when he sees Emma insult Miss Bates, a spinster of modest means. Mr. Knightley's reprimand of Emma for this insult also demonstrates his affection and esteem for her as a friend. Another incident which shows his quality is his anger with Emma for persuading Harriet Smith to refuse Robert Martin's proposal of marriage, Martin being in Knightley's eyes an eminently suitable mate for Harriet.
