◆However, because the novel is also concerned with the effects of the character's first impressions, that is their prejudice, Jane found the title Pride and Prejudice more appropriate. In Georgian England, Mrs. Bennet raises her five daughters - Jane, Elizabeth, Mary, Kitty and Lydia with the purpose of getting married with a rich husband that can support the family. They are not from the upper class, and their house in Hartfordshire will be inherited by a distant cousin if Mr. Bennet dies.

read a lot
who already sees a world beyond class and commerce, beyond pride and prejudice, and dreams of doing what was then nearly unthinkable - marrying for love. Naturally, her parents are searching for a wealthy, well-appointed husband to assure their daughter's future social standing. They are eyeing Mr. Wisely, nephew to the very formidable, not to mention very rich, local aristocrat Lady Gresham, as a prospective match. But when Jane meets the roguish and decidedly non-aristocratic Tom Lefroy, sparks soon fly along with the sharp repartee. His intellect and arrogance raise her ire - then knock her head over heels. Now, the couple, whose flirtation flies in the face of the sense and sensibility of the age, is faced with a terrible dilemma. If they attempt to marry, they will risk everything that matters - family, friends and fortune.

The impression of Pride and Prejudice
关于简奥斯汀的PPT
An extremely wealthy aristocrat贵族, Darcy is proud, haughty傲慢的 and extremely conscious of class differences at the beginning of the novel. He does, however, have a strong sense of honor and virtue. Elizabeth‘s rebukes责难 after his first proposal to her help him to recognize his faults of pride and social prejudice. It is, in fact, precisely because Elizabeth is not so awed 敬畏的by his high social status as to be afraid to criticize his character that he is attracted to her. The selfknowledge acquired from Elizabeth's rebukes and the desire to win Elizabeth's love spur him to change and judge people more by their character than by their social class.

傲慢与偏见
• 《傲慢与偏见》是简·奥斯汀的代表作。这部作 品以日常生活为素材，一反当时社会上流行的 感伤小说的内容和矫揉造作的写作方法，生动 地反映了18世纪末到19世纪初处于保守和闭塞 状态下的英国乡镇生活和世态人情。这部社会 风情画式的小说不仅在当时吸引着广大的读者， 时至今日，仍给读者以独特的艺术享受。 也有 根据书本改编的电影。
理智与情感
• 《理智与情感》虽是简·奥斯汀的第一部小说，但写作技 巧已经相当熟练。故事中的每一个情节，经作者的巧妙 构思，表面的因果关系与隐藏在幕后的本质缘故均自然 合理。女主人公根据表面现象产生合情合理的推测和判 断，细心的读者虽然不时产生种种疑惑，但思绪会自然 而然随着好的观察而发展，等着最后结果出现时，与表 面现象截然不同，造成了出乎意料的喜剧效果。如果反 过来重读一遍，会发现导致必然结果的因素早见于字里 行间。
人物生平
奥斯汀终身未婚，家道小康 居住在乡村小镇，接触到的是中小地主、牧师等人物以及他们恬静、舒适的 生活环境，因此她的作品里没有重大的社会矛盾。 她以女性特有的细致入微的观察力，真实地描绘了她周围世界的小天地，尤 其是绅士淑女间的婚姻和爱情风波。 18世纪末到19世纪初，庸俗无聊的“感伤小说”和“哥特小说”充斥英国文 坛，而奥斯汀的小说破旧立新，一反常规地展现了当时尚未受到资本主义工 业革命冲击的英国乡村中产阶级的日常生活和田园风光。
• 成为简·奥斯汀，而且她的生活同样充满了激情 与爱情。1796年，二十岁的简遇到了汤姆·勒 弗罗伊（Tom Lefroy，詹姆斯·麦卡沃伊饰）。 他们的感情成为了现实生活中的传奇，而爱情 故事也成为她毕生最伟大的著作。
成为简·奥斯汀
简·奥斯汀（Jane Austen）是英国文学史上著名的女作家，她用独特和细腻 笔触创作出感人至深的爱情故事，自己却终身未婚。喜欢看《傲慢与偏见》、 《理智与情感》、《爱玛》的影迷不要错过了，影片《成为简·奥斯汀》将解 开她的情路历程，而且这部电影的风格就如同那些根据奥斯汀小说改编的影 片一样。 只不过，《成为简·奥斯汀》将重点描写，放在了奥斯汀的生活 经历是如何促使她写出那些浪漫的小说的。把一位当时信手涂鸦完成的作品 现在被公认为经典名著的作家的生活改编成电影，是很冒险的一件事情。在 这么多年以来，出现过各种各样简·奥斯汀小说的电影版本之后，能够拍摄一 部关于她自己真实世界的电影，这样看上去是再好不过的一件事情。

Sense and Sensibility
❖ Sense and Sensibility is a novel by Jane Austen, and was her first published work when it appeared in 1811 under the pen name "A Lady". A work of romantic fiction, better known as a comedy of manners, Sense and Sensibility is set in southwest England, London and Kent between 1792 and 1797, and portrays the life and loves of the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne. The novel follows the young ladies to their new home, a meagre( ['miːgə] 贫弱的) cottage on a distant relative's property, where they experience love, romance and heartbreak. The philosophical resolution of the novel is ambiguous: the reader must decide whether sense and sensibility have truly merged.

• Something about the title
Jane Austen began her second novel, Pride and Prejudice, before she was twenty-one. It was originally titled First Impression because the appearances of the characters created the plot of the novel. However, because the novel is also concerned with the effects of the character's first impressions, that is their prejudice, Jane found the title Pride and Prejudice more appropriate

First Impression (original title) Themes: 1.Pride and Prejudice 2.Love And Marriage Main Chracters:Bingley & Jane; Elizabeth & Darcy; Charlotte & Collins; Lydia & Wickham; Mr. & Mrs.Bennet
The beginning……
“IT is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune mu st be in want of a wife. ”
The main subject in the novel is stated in the first sentence of the novel: "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife." In this statement, Jane has cleverly done three things: she has declared that the main subject of the novel will be courtship and marriage, she has established the humorous tone of the novel by taking a simple subject to elaborate and to speak intelligently of, and she has prepared the reader for a chase in the novel of either a husband in search of a wife, or a women in pursuit of a husband. The first line also defines Jane's book as a piece of literature that connects itself to the 18th century period
• "Single women have a dreadful propr, which is one very strong argument in favour of matrimony(marriage)"
-- Jane Austen, letter of March 13, 1816
The tone of the novel is light, satirical, and vivid. Scenes such as Mr. Collins proposal to Elizabeth, and Lady Catherine visits to Lizzy at Longbourn, provides comic relief to the reader while at the same time revealing certain characteristics of the characters. For example, Lydia's lack of common sense and responsibility is revealed when she takes pride in being the first Bennet girl to be married. Lydia does not take into consideration the circumstance of her marriage, the personality of her husband, or the prospects of their marriage for the future. Elizabeth Bennet's ability to laugh off her misfortunate and to continue to be optimistic, considering her situation, also contributes to the tone of the novel.
