Abstract

Pride and Prejudice, originally titled First Impressions, which is written by fresh and refinement witty language, tortuous plot, and full of drama color. It’s the most popular work of Jane Austen’s works. The work bases on the marriage experience of Bennet’s several daughters, and the main plot lines in Elizabeth and Darcy’s emotional experience. It displays the marital status of British social noble estate in the later 18th century. The thesis discusses the formation of four different marriages --- sex desire marriage, material marriage, moral marriage and perfect marriage in Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. The analysis is that one’s character influenced the formation of marriages and the social issues have a restrictive effect on them. It attempts to use the four marriages to show us that the harmonious marriage is the combination of physical life and mental life. Love, money, status and knowledge are the four important cause of happiness.

Key words: marriage; love; money; social issue;

摘要

《傲慢与偏见》原名为《最初的印象》。小说语言清新洗练，风趣机智，情节曲折有致，极富戏剧色彩，是简·奥斯丁的小说中最流行、最受欢迎的一本。作品以贝内特几个女儿的婚姻经历为基点，以伊丽莎白与达西的感情经历为情节主线，展示了十八世纪中后期英国社会贵族阶层的婚姻状况。本论文通过论述简·奥斯丁的《傲慢与偏见》中四种不同的婚姻形式，介绍了四种婚姻——性欲婚姻，物质婚姻，道德婚姻和完美婚姻。分析得出一个人的性格影响着他对婚姻的看法，以及社会环境对婚姻形成有着制约作用。本文试图利用四种婚姻来说明美满的婚姻是物质生活和精神生活完美的结合。爱情，金钱，地位，学识可谓幸福的四大要素。
