The book review of Pride and Prejudice
管宁
Pride and Prejudice is a novel by Jane Austen, first published in 1813.The story follows the main character Elizabeth Bennet as she deals with iues of manners, upbringing, morality, education and marriage in the society of the landed gentry of early 19th-century England.
After reading this book, I find that its name, Pride and Prejudice, is quite meaningful.Both the pride and prejudice are caused by money and social hierarchy.Jane reflected the reality of society by drawing the characters of specific person as well as the tongue they used when they speak.Some people think that only Mr.Darcy was proud and only Elizabeth had prejudice towards other else.But I hold the different opinion.
When a wealthy young bachelor, Bingley, moving into Netherfield Park in the neighborhood of the Bennet family, he is soon well-received because of his income of 5000 a year and poibility of marrying one of the young girls in the town.It’s quite easy to see the whole society was chasing down money and fame.That is a good background that the writer succefully set, making the following things sound reasonable.
The Bennets\' cousin Mr Collins, a clergyman, was proud of his rich patrone, the noble Lady Catherine de Bourgh.After being refused by Elizabeth of the offer of marriage, Mr Collins soon recovered and promptly became engaged to Elizabeth\'s close friend who pointed out that Mr Collins is a good, respectful, well-employed man which is absolutely untrue.How eager was she to have financial security by marrying a, what to say, kind of rich and powerful husband.We wonder whether the society had real love.
When Elizabeth went to visit her married girlfriend Charlotte and Mr Collins, she was to meet Mr.Darcy more frequently.Mr Darcy finds himself, again, attracted to Elizabeth and proposes to her.While talking to each other, Elizabeth charged him with pride, with destroying her sister\'s happine, with his disgraceful treatment of Mr Wickham, and with having conducted himself in an ungentlemanly manner.All the reasons of her prejudice towards Darcy were shown in no other.However, after reading the letter sent to clear himself by Mr.Darcy, Elizabeth came to acknowledge the truth of Mr Darcy\'s aertions.Later, Elizabeth realized what a kind, amiable and considerate person Mr.Darcy was little by little.
While facing the unreasonable order from Lady Catherine de Bourgh of never marrying her nephew, Elizabeth refused to low her head, believing that everyone had right to chase their own happine.However, lady Catherine believed her to be too low born for her nephew, Mr Darcy, upon hearing this, realized that Elizabeth\'s opinion of him may have changed and again proposes.We are never too surprised to find that the elegant noble lady Catherine who represented the highest cla of Britain was so arrogant under such a mammonish society.
But the combination of Darcy and Elizabeth proved that after so many generations living in such a material society and being told forever marrying to money and fame, the true love from the heart
and soul has not perished from the earth.
