1、Reading after Pride and PrejudiceRecently I have been reading a novel called Pride andPrejudice, whichwas written by Jane Austen. Although I haven 't finished it yet, I still have something to write.The writer, Jane Austen, was an English woman. She was born in Steventon, Hampshine, where her fa
2、ther was a rector. She was the second daughter and the seventh child in a family of eight. The first 25 years of her life Austen spent in Hampshire. Austin didn 'tgo to regular schools, but she read many literary works at her parents 'guidance. She started writing about the age of 20, and pu
3、blished six novels. Pride and Prejudice (1813) and Emma (1816) are the best-known books of them. Virginia Woolf called her“ themost perfectartist among women ”. Most of her novels were all adapted into movies and successful in the world.For living in a small country town, contacting the medium and s
4、mall landlords, pastor as well as their quiet and comfortable living environment, there were no significant social contradictions in her works. She described a truthful picture of her world, especially the marriage and love between gentlemen and ladies by her meticulous feminine observation. The sty
5、le of her works is humorous and rich in comic conflicts, so many readers love them. This type of novels not only at that time attracted broad readers, today; it stillgives the readers unique art enjoyment.The novel describes love process of heroine Elizabeth and hero Darcy, her elder sister Jane and
6、 Mr.Bingley, younger sister Jane and Mr.Bingley, younger sister Lydia and Mr.Wickham, her good friend Charlotte and Mr.Collins.The marriage between Darcy and Elizabeth revealed the characteristics which constituted a successful marriage. One of these characteristics was that the feeling couldn '
7、tbe brought on by appearances and must gradually develop between the two people as they got to know one another.The marriage between Jane Bennet and Bingley was also an example of successful marriage. They had the excellent understanding, super-excellent disposition of Jane and a general similarity
8、of feeling and taste between her and her husband. Unlike Darcy and Elizabeth, there was a flaw in their relationship. The flaw was that both characters were too gullible and too good-hearted to ever act strongly against external forces that may attempt to separate them.Obviously, Lydia and Wickham &
9、#39;s marriage was an example of a bad marriage. Their marriage was based on appearances, good looks and youthful vivacity. Once these qualities could no longer be seen by each other, the once strong relationship would slowly fade away. Through their relationship, Jane Austen showed that hasty marri
10、age based on superficial qualities quickly cooled and led to unhappiness.The marriage between Mr.Collins and Charlette was based on economics rather than on love or appearance. It was a common practice during Austen'stime for woman to marry a husband to save herself from spinsterhood or to gain
11、financial security. However, Jane Austen viewed this as a type of prostitution and disapproved it.Elizabeth was a clever, beautiful and strong-minded woman, who looked down upon the hypocrisy in high-society circles. Facing the marriage, she was courage, visionary and good at thinking. Although, she
12、 had some wrong opinions on Darcy in the beginning, finally she knew about Darcy justly through thinking, hence gained the true love. Darcy was a handsome, rich gentleman, but proud and didn 't want to make contact with others, leading to dissatisfactions from neighbors. Even worse, Darcy left b
13、ad impressions on the people around him and Elizabeth also hated him. She had prejudice against Darcy gradually. When Darcy proposed to her, she refused him decisively. After that, Darcy began to reflect on the self-examination and treated people with more populist. As time went by, they came across
14、 again. Darcy was not only polite, but was popular among the neighbors. Finally, regardless of his aunt 's strong objection and concept of family, Darcy proposed to Elizabeth again. Elizabeth willingly consented. She began to appear her lively side to Darcy.The characters have their own personal
15、ities. Mrs.Bennet was a woman who was eager to marry off her daughters. Mr.Bingley was a friendly young man. Jane was simple, innocent and never spoke evil of others. Elizabeth was a clever girl who always had her own opinions. Mary liked reading classic books. Kitty didn 't have her own opinion
16、s but liked to follow her sister. Lydia was a girl who followed exotic things, handsome man and was somehow a little profligate.As far as I am concerned, love is the most beautiful and valuable thing and the basis of marriage. Although material is important, we shouldn't give upseeking for the t
17、rue love. By contrasting Elizabeth with Lydia, we know the true love is essential.Then, I think the behavior is the symbol of people. If Darcy was polite and warm-hearted in the beginning, maybe he would not have been misunderstood by Elizabeth. Therefore, never be arrogant. It is true that the firs
18、t impression is important, but we should also recognize someone in long time and from all aspects. That requires we are strong-minded, reasoned and sensible. Be tolerant to anyone, and you will be more likely gain happiness.Last but not least, this novel has an effect on today 's Chinese society
19、, which is full of bullionism and hedonism. Many youngers have thequestion,especially girls, “Rose and bread, which is more important ”. Once in a famous dating show called If you are the one, a girl said“Would rather sit in the BMWcar crying, don 'tsit on the bike laughing ”, which means she would live together with a rich man rather than a poor man. Most girls t
