1 IntroductionThe main story of the novel happens between Elizabeth Bennet and Darcy. Although, it seems that, they haven’t attracted anyone’s eyes. We all know that at the first ball, when Lizzy asked Mr Darcy to have a dance. He refused. He didn’t think that anyone at the village can deserve him. After this, Lizzy promised not to pay attention to him any more because of his pride.At last, when everything comes to light Lizzy regretted. She found that she had misunderstood Darcy. And Darcy had although changed. He made an offer of marriage to her again and was accepted. No pride and no prejudice are between them.The novel also reflected the author oneself's marriage view: It is wrong to marry for the property, money and position. She emphasizes the importance of the ideal marriage, and regard men and women's emotion as the foundation stone which concludes the ideal marriage .Just because Pride and Prejudice, I have a profound thinking about marriage. The writer uses intelligent words to depict a few different marriages in the book, each of which reflects people's attitudes toward marriage in that time. We can comprehend the essence of Jane and Bingley’s marriage, Elizabeth and Darcy’s marriage , Lydia and Wickham’s marriage and Charlotte and Collins’s marriage through Elizabeth’s views. Through the wise heroine, we see marriage description. To marry for wealth and beauty is wrong. This kind of marriage cannot retain long-term happiness, and truly happy marriage is based on love and sense.2 The analysis o f Elizabeth’s characterElizabeth Bennet is a person worthy of our imitation. She is a model because she is different from all the other characters, except Darcy, and because she does not adhere rigidly to the standards set forth by society, she is self-reliant and independent. Elizabeth rejects Mr. Collin's proposal because she does not think that marriage was boring, nor does she believe in marriage of convenience. When Mr. Collins says arrogantly to Elizabeth, she politely refused him. Unlike Charlotte Lucas, Elizabeth would never violate her principle and her integrity and throw away her talents bymarrying Mr. Collins, a conceited, narrow-minded, and pompous fool. Elizabeth looksnature because she puts her trust in her own perceptions and impressions. On the other hand, she is not ready to rebel against society. She does not totally disregard social proprietary. She has good manners; her slight breach of decorum walking alone to Nether field Park is justified by her genuine concern for her sister who is ill. She hasgood manners. When Lady Catherine criticizes Elizabeth skill of playing piano, shecan have good manners to keep polite.3 Elizabeth’s views about her sisters’ and friend’s marriage3.1The most realistic marriage —Charlotte’s marriageFor money and marriage, Charlotte by marriage just wants to get a rich husband, thus she can have the economic security. Marriage for them is a task, but Collins couples obtain from the marriage what they want: Charlotte gets stable of rich life; Collins also gets a warm home. This is their understanding of marriage.3.2 The most ridiculous marriage —Lydia’s marriageLydia and Wickham is absurd combination of extremely. Their relationship is completely built on lust and appearance, no love foundation, say, is neither practicalnor romantic. Lydia got erotic satisfied; Wickham also get what he wanted wealth,this is their understanding of marriage.3.3The most happy marriage —Jane’s marriageJane and Bingley marriage is considered the happiest marriage. Jane and Bingleymatch each other faces, male prodigy, anyone opinion, they are the most suitable for together. Their marriage, love, in my opinion, is not the main base, the main is a kindof attraction. For Jane's beauty and Bingley, Jane attracted to kind of handsome and Bingley attracted gentleman poise, their love more performance for a mutual admiration of love. Marriage is a complicated contract, both parties must have enoughlove to maintain the basis of this contract. But Jane and the love between the Bingleytoo insipid, too. That's not enough deep-rooted, let I don't feel safe, seem to lurk trace dangerous breath.3.4 The most admirable marriage —Elizabeth’s marriageThe marriage is tortuous between them but again ups deep-rooted of love based."Economic and social structures with such great power sways interpersonal the relationships between people and this made her became the cartoonist monster"(D.W.Hardin 166-179). With first marriage proposal as a border, in thinking changed not only is Elizabeth, and Darcy. Elizabeth because Darcy letter, to realize their prejudice; Darcy because Elizabeth words, to realize their arrogance. If Elizabeth for Darcy's first marriage proposal didn't refuse words may Darcy for her infatuation will not lasting. If no refusal dialogue, Darcy or that although multimillionaire, although a handsome, but too arrogant on high. For such people, Elizabeth even for impulsive and agreed to marry him, in the near future, Elizabeth still will be sorry. And if not rejected that after letter, Elizabeth is still that although bright, beautiful, frank, but too subjective and prejudice, for such people, Darcy will soon tired. Because have these twists and turns, the love between them is more precious, more deeply.4 Conclusion"There is no doubt that Elizabeth and Darcy's love is the shining pearl in the history of literary, and their love is the ideal mode which has been esteem by Austen"(Zheng 79). The author’s view about marriage: it is wrong to get married for property, money and position. Getting married without considering that above-mentioned factors are unwise ether. So that she objects to get married for money, objects to regarding the marriage as a trifling matter. She emphasizes the importance of the ideal marriage, and regard men and women's emotion as the foundation stone which concludes the ideal marriageLove is impulsive and is of no reason no passionate, and full of madness. Love itself is crazy. However, how many people can love with madness? The reality is cruel, marriage doesn't equal to love, and this ideal are away from us far away. Darcy and Elizabeth’s marriage is the happiest, with deep-rooted of love, and a necessary condition that Darcy strongly wealth. Money is not secular in their marriage wasn'tsecular; the wealth is just like sunshine and nutritions their marriage is of much envy for any person. If marriage is such a castle, so I'd like to be trapped in such a city, Are being loved besieged not a kind of happiness?As far as I concerned, Pride and Prejudice reflects the British sentiment of the end of 18th century and the early of 19th century under the circumstance of conservative，and tells us different ways and attitudes to the marriage between Mr. and Mrs. Bennet’s five daughters’. This reveals the author’s attitude toward marriage .And that is love and marriage based on money, property and social status is not perfect, and it is very stupid. "And we must emphasize the importance of ideal marriage, meanwhile, oppose to love and marriage based on money or property"(Hu 17). We must take the affection or love as the cornerstone of ideal marriage between male and female. Elizabeth was born in the family of squireen's, and loved by Darcy. Darcy proposes marriage to her in spite of their difference of the possession of property and social status, but is still refused by Elizabeth because of his pride. So if Darcy's pride still exists, there will be no love and even happy marriage between Elizabeth and him. And I think pride and prejudice aren't very good. If someone is always full of pride, he will look down upon others and think he is very great and smart. Because of Darcy's pride, Elizabeth hold prejudice against him. If someone is a prejudiced person, every time he meets somebody or something, what he thinks of others all depends on his foregone experience and his mood of the time. What’s worse, he doesn’t think what he does is wrong. He thinks everyone is the same as him and everyone has his special way to know the world, but it is absolutely wrong. Though everyone can be judged in the way he likes, he can’t ignore others. He can like what he likes and hate what he hates, but he should be objective when he treats others. So I think we should consider things rationally and thoughtfully and not just do as we like. That is to say, we shouldn't have any pride and prejudice, or we couldn't treat things and others impartially and it couldn't lead a happy life.References[1]孙致礼,译,简·奥斯丁.《傲慢与偏见》南京:译林出版社,2000年：83Sun Zhili,Pride and Prejudice,2000:83[2]朱虹,《奥斯丁研究》.北京:中国文联出版公司,1985年：178Zhu Hong,The Research of Austen,1985:178[3]郑晓园.文化深层的激荡.阅读与欣赏,1998年：79Zheng Xiaoyuan The Deeping Evoking of Culture，1988:79[4]D.W.Harding.‘Regulated Hatred:An Aspect of the Work of Jane Austen’Watt.Jane Austen:A Collection of Critical Essays（2005）：166-179[5]胡宗锋：《英美文学精要问答及作品赏析》．西安出版社，2002．17[Hu Zongfeng ：British and American literature works q&a and appreciation Journal of Xi’an2002：17]AcknowledgementsIn the course of writing this thesis, I received a magnificent amount of help and support, and I would like to take the opportunity to express my gratitude to all who have help me.In the course of writing this thesis, I received a lot help and support from my teachers and from my friends, now i have this opportunity to express my appreciation to all the people who have help me.I want to give my profound thanks to Mr Lu, He is strict to me, and he is also very patient to me, I have done the thesis by his priceless help and his guidance.
