This thesis explores how the love triangle—a recurring motif in both nineteenth-century and contemporary romantic fiction—is used across Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights, and Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight Saga. By comparing the roles of love triangles in these texts, this study addresses the following questions: How significant are love triangles in romantic literature? How have they evolved from classic to modern settings? And to what extent are they shaped by societal norms? The thesis combines literary analysis, historical context, as well as Sternberg’s and Girard’s theories of love, along with the insights of readers gathered through a comprehensive survey. Ultimately, the thesis argues that love triangles are not just dramatic plot devices, but lenses through which readers examine choice, desire, and the weight of social expectation.
