  Many people simply regard Pride and Prejudice as a love story, but in my opinion, this book is an illustration of the society at that time. She perfectly reflected the relation between money and marriage at her time and gave the people in her works vivid characters.

  The characters have their own personalities. Mrs. Bennet is a woman who makes great efforts to marry off her daughters. Mr. Bingley is a friendly young man, but his friend, Mr. Darcy, is a very proud man who seems to always feel superior. Even the five daughters in Bennet family are very different. Jane is simple, innocent and never speaks evil of others. Elizabeth is a clever girl who always has her own opinion. Mary likes reading classic books. (Actually she is a pedant.) Kitty doesn’t have her own opinion but likes to follow her sister, Lydia. Lydia is a girl who follows exotic things, handsome man, and is somehow a little profligate. When I read the book, I can always find the same personalities in the society now. That is why I think this book is indeed the representative of the society in Britain in the 18th century.

  The family of gentleman in the countryside is Jane Austen’s favourite topic. But this little topic can reflect big problems. It concludes the stratum situation and economic relationships in Britain in her century. You can find these from the very beginning of this book.

  The first sentence in this book is impressive. It reads: “It is a truth well known to all the world that an unmarried man in possession of a large fortune must be in need of a wife”。 The undertone is very clear: the foundation of the marriage at that time is not emotion but possession.  People always think that Austen was an expert at telling love stories. In fact, the marriage in her book is not the result of love, but the result of economic needs. After reading this book, I know the truth is that a poor woman must be in need of a husband, a wealthy man.

  I couldn’t forget how eager Mrs. Bennet wants to marry off her daughters. If you want to know why she is so crazy about these things, I must mention the situation in Britain at that time. Only the eldest son had the privilege of inheriting his father’s possessions. Younger sons and daughters who are used to luxurious lives have no choice but marry a man or woman in possession of a large fortune to continue their comfortable lives. Thus, we can see that getting married is a way to become wealthier, particularly for women without many

  possessions. Jane Austen told us that money and possession determined everything, including marriage and love in her century.

  In “Pride and Prejudice”, the sister of Mr. Bingley strongly opposed his plan of marrying Jane because the Bennets don’t have many possessions and their social positions are much lower than them. From this, we can see there are a lot of obstacles for a not very rich woman to marry a wealthy husband. The society, the relatives would not allow them to get married.

  In modern society, although the marriages of economic needs have decreased rapidly, the concept of “money determines everything” is still rooted in some people’s mind. A lot of parents try hard to interfere their children’s marriages. Education background, possessions, jobs remains the main reason that may influence one’s marriage. Marry for money is still a big problem in our society. We can’t help thinking: can money determine everything?

  Austen left this problem for us to think. The genius of Jane Austen lies in this perfect simplicity, the simplicity that reflects big problems. Although Austen was only 21 when she wrote “Pride and Prejudice”, her sharp observation of social lives makes the style of this book surprisingly mature and lively. The plots in her works are always very natural. The development of the plot is as inevitable as a problem in mathematics. I think the depth of Pride and Prejudice is the reason that makes this book prominent and classic. Today, her book still can be the guide telling us the economic relationships both at her time and in modern time.

  翻译:

  许多人只是把傲慢和偏见视为一个爱情故事,但在我看来,这本书是当时社会的一个例证。她很好地反映了金钱和婚姻之间的关系,并赋予了人们在作品中生动的人物形象。

  人物有自己的个性。班纳特太太是一个女人谁努力嫁女儿。彬格莱先生是位很友好的年轻人,但他的朋友,达西先生,是一个非常骄傲的人谁似乎总是感觉优越。即使是五个女儿的班纳特家有很大的不同。简是简单的,无辜的,从不说别人的恶。伊丽莎白是一个聪明的女孩,她总是有自己的见解。玛丽喜欢阅读经典书籍。(其实她是一个书呆子。)凯蒂没有自己的意见,而是喜欢跟她的妹妹,丽迪雅。丽迪雅是一个女孩谁如下异国情调的东西,英俊的男子,并在某种程度上有点挥霍。当我读这本书的时候,我总能在社会上找到同样的个性。这就是为什么我认为这本书确实是英国在第十八世纪的社会的代表。

  在农村的绅士家庭是简奥斯丁最喜欢的话题。但这个小话题可以反映大问题。它总结了英国在她的世纪的阶层状况和经济关系。你可以从这本书的开头找到这些。

  这本书的第一句话是令人印象深刻的。它写道:“这是一个众所周知的真理,在全世界拥有大量财富,一个未婚男人必须在妻子”的需要,底色是非常明确的:当时的婚姻的基础不是感情而是占有。人们总是认为奥斯丁是一个讲爱情故事的专家。事实上,在她的书中的婚姻不是爱的结果,而是经济需求的结果。读完这本书,我知道事实是,一个贫穷的女人必须有一个丈夫,一个富有的男人。

  我不能忘记班纳特太太急切想要嫁女儿。如果你想知道她为什么对这些事情如此痴迷,我必须提到当时英国的情况。只有长子继承了继承父亲的财产的特权。年轻的儿子和女儿们习惯于奢侈的生活,别无选择,只能和一个拥有大量财富的男人或女人结婚,来继续他们的舒适生活。因此,我们可以看到,结婚是一种变得更加富裕的方式,特别是对没有许多妇女的妇女

  财产.简奥斯丁告诉我们,金钱和财产决定了一切,包括她的世纪的婚姻和爱情。

  在《傲慢与偏见》,彬格莱先生的姐姐强烈反对他娶简的计划因为bennets没有太多的财产和社会地位比他们低得多。从这个,我们可以看到有很多障碍,一个不是很有钱的女人嫁给一个有钱的丈夫。社会上,亲戚们都不允许他们结婚。

  在现代社会,经济需求的婚姻虽然迅速下降,“金钱决定一切”的概念仍然植根于一些人的头脑中。很多父母都很努力地去干涉他们的孩子的婚姻。教育背景,财产,工作仍然是可能影响一个人的婚姻的主要原因。在我们的社会里,为了钱结婚仍然是一个大问题。我们不禁在想:钱能决定一切吗?

  奥斯丁把这个问题留给我们去思考。简奥斯丁的天才在于这种完美的简单性,简单性,反映了大问题。虽然奥斯丁在她写《傲慢与偏见》时只有21岁,但她对社会生活的敏锐观察,使这本书的风格出奇的成熟活泼。她作品中的情节总是很自然的。情节的发展是数学中的一个问题的必然。我认为傲慢与偏见的深度是使这本书突出和经典的原因。今天,她的书仍然可以是指导告诉我们的经济关系,无论是在她的时间和现代时间。
