傲慢与偏见的英文简介

ummery of the novel

It is universally acknowledged that the eternal theme of Jane Austen’s novels is the choice people make for marriage partners,so is in Pride and Prejudice.Mrs.Bonnet had no other wish if her five daughters could get married as soon as possible with someone wealthy.At a dancing ball,it is obvious that Mr.Bingley could not help falling in love at the first sight with Miss Jane because of her stunning beauty.

Mrs.Benne was so excited that she could not hold her manner and declared publicly she would have a daughter married soon,which frightened Mr.Bingley away.Mr.Collins,a distance nephew of Mr.Bennet,came to ask a marriage to one of his cousins before Mrs.Bennet was able to get clear why Mr.Bingley left suddenly.

After receiving the hint from Mrs.Bennet that Jane already had an admirer,Mr.Collins turned to Elizabeth without wasting a minute and to Miss Charlotte Lucas two days later after refused by Elizabeth.It was difficult for Mrs.Bennet to recover herself as a result of the“deadly stupid” decision made by Elizabeth until she got the news that Lydia finally married Mr.Wickham,though the marriage was built on the basis of ten thousand pounds.

Mr.Darcy offered the money and did everything departing from his will just because he loved Elizabeth so much.He could not hide his feelings any more and showed his affection to Elizabeth at last,who,because of a series of misunderstandings towards him,rejected him without hesitation.This plot is the climax of the novel as the prejudice of Elizabeth to Mr.Darcy was exposed and removed since then.And the combination of the two young couples,Jane and Bingley,Elizabeth and Darcy came at last.

奥斯汀终身未婚,家境殷实。由于长期居住在封建保守势力相当强大的乡下,所以她的生活圈子十分有限,所接触的主要是中小地主和牧师。她以女性的敏锐和细腻描绘出周围的世界:有闲阶级恬静舒适的田园生活,绅士淑女的爱情和婚姻。这里没有可怕的灾祸和尖刻的矛盾,只有日常生活中的风波和人物之间的喜剧性冲突,格调是轻松诙谐的。
