Introduction After reading this book，I searched the Internet and

7、found something about the author Jane Austen. Her novels were witty, warm and ironic portraits of the privileged classes of 18th- and 19th-century England. Her best-known works are Emma (1815), Pride and Prejudice (1813) and Sense and Sensibility (1811).The main object of Janes satire in the novel i

8、s the mercenary and the ignorance of the people, a common criticism of the 18th century.The first sentence in this novel is impressive.It reads: It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.Sun 83 The undertone is very clear: th

9、e foundation of the marriage at that time is not love but possession.The main story of the novel happens between Elizabeth Bennet and Darcy. Although, it seems that, they havent attracted anyones eyes. I mean that nobody has thought that love will exist between they two. Because almost everyone has

10、heart of the complaint from their mouths about the other. So it is not surprise to see the father become so amazed when Lizzy says that she loves Darcy. But whats the reason? What stopped them from getting together at first? Its pride and prejudice. We all know that at the first ball, when Lizzy ask

11、ed Mr Darcy to have a dance. He refused. He didnt think that anyone at the village can deserve him. After this, Lizzy promised not to pay attention to him any more because of his pride. There are other two things that make the impression of the hero worse.One is that she thinks its he that had separ

12、ated her sister and her lover. The second is that she heard of something bad ,fabricated by Wickham who has antinomies with Darcy. These make the feeling of prejudice stronger and stronger.At last, when everything comes to light Lizzy regretted. She found that she had misunderstood him. And Darcy ha

13、d although changed.He made an offer of marriage to her again and was accepted. No pride and no prejudice are between them.The novel also reflected the author oneselfs marriage view: It is wrong to marry for the property, money and position. She emphasizes the importance of the ideal marriage, and re

14、gard men and womens emotion as the foundation stone which concludes the ideal marriage .In modern society, a lot of parents try to interfere their childrens marriages. Education background, jobs and possessions may influence ones marriage. Marry for money is still a bog problem.I want to saycan mone

15、y determine everything？I believe that true love is the most important thing.Just because Pride and Prejudice, I have a profound thinking about marriage. The writer uses intelligent words to depict a few different marriages in the book, each of which reflects peoples attitudes toward marriage in that

16、 time. We can comprehend the essence of Jane,and Bingleys marriage, Elizabeth and Darcys marriage , Lydia and Wickhams marriage and Charlotte and Collinss marriage through Elizabeths views. Through the wise heroine, we see marriage description. To marry for wealth and beauty is wrong. This kind of m

17、arriage cannot retain long-term happiness, and truly happy marriage is based on love and sense. Elizabeth Bennet was a 20-year-old girl, and the protagonist of the story. She is her fathers favourite and inherits his intelligence and wit. She is generally regarded as one of the most enduring and pop

18、ular female protagonists in English literature.II. The analysis of Elizabeths character Elizabeth Bennet is a person worthy of our imitation. She is a model because she is different from all the other characters, except Darcy, and because she does not adhere rigidly to the standards set forth by soc

19、iety, she is self-reliant and independent. Elizabeth rejects Mr. Collins proposal because she does not think that marriage was boring, nor does she believe in marriage of convenience. When Mr. Collins says arrogantly to Elizabeth, she politely refused him. Unlike Charlotte Lucas, Elizabeth would nev

20、er violate her principle and her integrity and throw away her talents by marrying Mr. Collins, a conceited, narrow-minded, and pompous fool. Elizabeth looks nature because she puts her trust in her own perceptions and impressions. On the other hand, she is not ready to rebel against society. She doe

21、s not totally disregard social proprietary. She has good manners; her slight breach of decorum walking alone to Nether field Park is justified by her genuine concern for her sister who is ill. She has good manners. When Lady Catherine criticizes Elizabeth skill of playing piano, she can have good ma

22、nners to keep polite. Elizabeth demonstrates that she has great restraint even under tremendous pressure. Elizabeth realizes that she must take responsibility for her own education because she can not look to either of her parents for advice, and she must ultimately depend on her own experiences,ins

23、tincts, and judgments. Her self-reliant attitude causes her to think of herself as to be independent, but her views are distorted because she also regards herself as above normal social relationship. Elizabeth is unconscious that she suffers from pride. She does not realize the inherent dangers of h

24、er error. According to Darcy, Elizabeths defects are her willful tendency to misunderstand others. She embraces stubbornly her own quick perceptions about the people around her as true and accurate. The flaws in her character are revealed by her prejudices. Elizabeths initial prejudices against Darc

25、y are rooted in the pride of her own quick perception, and her distorted perception of reality. Elizabeth believes that Darcy is bad, so she naturally gives Wickham the benefit of the doubt when he told her about Darcys breach of agreement without hearing Darcys side of the story. Elizabeth is dispo

26、sed to think badly of Darcy because of his ungentlemanly behaviour, but she thinks well of Mr. Wickham because his charm, his smoother facade, and his sharper wit endears him to everyone. Her prejudice renders her incapable of judging the merits of Darcy.On the surface, Elizabeth is just ordinary. S

27、he is attractive but not beautiful; she is endowed with certain graces and talents, but not unusually gifted, she is appealing without being exquisite. In the end, she wins everything: the prince, the castle, the happiness, and the esteem. Elizabeth will find happiness because she learns to recogniz

28、e her faults, but characters like Lady Catherine and Ms. Bingley will never find happiness because they do not learn from experience. Elizabeth becomes more of a lady than Lady Catherine. Lady Catherines defeat was brought about by her arrogance. Her display of egotism not only fail to dissuade Eliz

29、abeth from marrying Darcy, but led Darcy to propose the second time; Lady Catherines disdainful act makes Darcy realize that Elizabeth still has some feelings for him. On the other hand, Ms. Bingley possesses self-defeating cunning, Jane will also never find enduring happiness. Elizabeths blindness

30、of her faults was opened by Darcys letter. She learns to judge others more accurately and not be blinded by first impressions. Elizabeth realizes that whenever she discusses Darcys faults, she unconsciously touches upon her own. Elizabeths confession that she was guilty of prejudices based on her ow

31、n judgment tells us that she is superior to the other characters, such as Lady Catherine, Ms. Bingley, Mrs. Bennet, Mr. Collins, Lydia, and Wickham, but above all that she is human. She also realizes that people cannot be judged based solely by their appearance, and that character evaluations must a

32、lso take into account the substance behind a persons appearance. Elizabeth becomes a rational creature speaking the truth from her heart. Without neither family wealth nor wisdom to aid her, Elizabeths success is a attribute to her inner strength. Darcy in the beginning is snobbish and proud. III. E

33、lizabeths views about her sisters and friends marriage A.The most realistic marriage Charlottes marriage Charlottes Elizabeths best friend, but they have different choices on marriage.Although Charlotte is a well-educated girl but she doesnt have much property.She isnt as beautiful as other girls. S

34、he realize that marriage isnt equal with happiness, but it is inherently like a safe to a woman(Sun 83). To get financial guarantees of security, opportunity really rare, we must cache it quickly,it is almost irrelevant about what kind of person the man was(Zhu 78). And Charlotte is different from E

35、lizabeth.She has no wealth.She is unremarkable, but she is smart. She thinks it is a chance about whether marriage life will be happiness or not. As an already 27 years old woman, her choice of marriage is entirely out of realistic consideration. When she first met Collins, she saw his folly, and wh

36、en he asked her to marry him, she also clearly know Collinss certainly not a reasonable person, and do not let people like. But she still accepts the proposal, for marriage has been her goal, as to find that kind of guy, married life is less concerned about how well educated, education but property

37、for the young woman, it not marry is the only a decent way to happiness, and although can doubt and married also must be their most agreeable can from poverty refuge. For money and marriage, Charlotte by marriage just wants to get a rich husband, thus she can have the economic security. Marriage for

38、 them is a task, but Collins couples obtain from the marriage what they want: Charlotte gets stable of rich life; Collins also gets a warm home. This is their understanding of marriage. B. The most ridiculous marriage Lydias marriageBennetts daughter Lydia is a simple, frivolous and vanity girl, the

39、 young age and keen on social, like and merrys officer exchanges, and proud of it. If anyone a urged, she will devote anyones arms. Her feelings always kept fluctuating, wavering. Wickham is a handsome appearance, actual moral corruption, very luxury, and treachery. First he deceived rich Darcy miss

40、, he failed. Centuries later, he joined the first to Elizabeth, then and all the gold to rich miss launch to pursue, finally unexpectedly and Lydia elopement.Lydia and Wickham is absurd combination of extremely. Their relationship is completely built on lust and appearance, no love foundation, say,

41、is neither practical nor romantic. The marriage between them is conditional, and it is in Darcys help, the two talents grudgingly married. But two extravagant, consider eyes comfortable and happy, CARES in the future, they often depend to Jane or Elizabeth write for help, hoping their put to pay bil

42、ls. Wickham to Lydia love soon turned into a cold. Lydia and Wickham is also from marriage got what they want: Lydia got erotic satisfied; Wickham also get what he wanted wealth, this is their understanding of marriage. C. The most happy marriage Janes marriageAmong all the marriages in this novel,

43、the combination of pleasant Bingley and mild Jane is the most blessed and happy one. The couple has similar interests and they insisted on pursuing their true love, which leads them to a happy and perfect marriage. Mr. Bingley was a good looking and he is the person who has giant fortune about 5,000

44、 pounds a year. As a young man who had good breeding, he was cordial and simple with disposition. With this character, he never appeared dissatisfied. He was easy to approach and constant in love although he was very rich. However, he is lacked of strength and independence in his marriage, which was

45、 a grievous defect of him. In the novel, Bingley was popular with almost everybody in everywhere. He had a pleasant countenance and easy unaffected manners. It is easy to find that he was agreeable both in appearance and character. But the exact time when the readers began to know him was some days

46、later. At the first ball at Nether field, he was shown to everybody and the readers began to make acquaintance of his personality through his behaviour. Mr. Bingley also noticed Jane at that night. He fell in love with Jane at their first ball and their romance flourished quietly and steadily. His a

47、ffection toward Jane was obviously sincere and unaffected. It was obvious that when Jane suffered a trifling cold, he was worried about her. It is not difficult for the readers to find Bingleys real concern and affection toward Jane from these details. He was cordial and constant in his love. Genera

48、lly speaking, his marriage with Jane was successful by the help of Darcy. They were good friends although they were different in character. There was a very steady and constant friendship between them. Bingley was endeared to Darcy by the easiness, openness and ductility of his temper. It is no doub

49、t for Darcy that Bingley had the firmest reliance. Jane was the first children in her family. She was a kind and mild girl who was the most beautiful one among her sisters. As an introverted girl, she is constant in her love but lacks strength and self-confidence. She didnt want others to know her l

50、ove to Mr. Bingley, so she pretended that she had nothing to do with him. Compared with other girls, she was the mildest, kind, modest and almost perfect girl in this novel. Sometimes she was a little innocent. In her eyes, everybody is perfect. She never saw the ugly fact of life even she was decei

51、ved. Her character is vividly showed in many parts of the novel. According to the above, Darcy thought that though Jane was pleased with Bingley, she didnt love him. In his eyes, Bingley was involved in an unavailable love. So after then, he made great efforts to separate Bingley from Jane. After Bi

52、ngleys departure, Jane suffered great distress. She was very depressed. But because of the defect of her character, she pretended to be all right and said nothing about her sadness. Here, readers can find that her weakness and obedience had been thoroughly exposed. According to the relationship betw

53、een Bingley and Jane, love and similar interests are the basic factors of a successful and happy marriage. With many similarities in character, people can understand each other easily. Most important of all, the couple with similar interests can live together with a happy life, because there are und

54、erstanding, helps and supporting between them. They dont care the defects of their partners and even they dont see any faults in each other. Just as the old saying going, “Birds of a feather flock together, people of a mind fill into the same group.”Jane and Bingley marriage is considered the happie

55、st marriage. Bennetts big daughter Jane gentle lovely, beautiful generous, the people always went to good side to think. Her these attractive temperament completely attracts the young handsome and natural and unrestrained rich Bingley. Two attraction and mutual love, although be the best things are

56、difficult, finally, they also abandoned status many obstacles together. This is a pile is the envy of a good marriage. However, I think this beautiful is behind the crisis of certain lurk. Jane and Bingley match each other faces, male prodigy, anyone opinion, they are the most suitable for together.

57、 Their marriage, love, in my opinion, is not the main base, the main is a kind of attraction. For Janes beauty and Bingley, Jane attracted to kind of handsome and Bingley attracted gentleman poise, their love more performance for a mutual admiration of love. Marriage is a complicated contract, both

58、parties must have enough love to maintain the basis of this contract. But Jane and the love between the Bingley too insipid, too. Thats not enough deep-rooted, let I dont feel safe, seem to lurk trace dangerous breath. D. The most admirable marriage Elizabeths marriageMr. Qian Zhongshu talked about marriage and compared marriage to a castle. But I think this marriage theory is not suitable for Darcy and Elizabeth. The marriage is tortuous between them but again ups dee
