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 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.
Everyone in the world, whether he or she is rich or poor, can meet a lot of difficulties, even disaster. Different people have different ways to deal with them. After reading the little princess, Sara, touched me deeply. The little princess is by (USA) Francis hodgson Burnett. Sarah is a hero was born in India”s British gentleman”s daughter, lived in a boarding school life princess. Because of Sarah was kind and generous and most of all - sorrow, she is loved by everyone. Everything goes well, until her father died in an accident.
Thoroughly changed everything. She didn”t understand why the teachers and students to her so bad. Even the principal was like her, that she works 16 hours a day. Sarah”s miserable life began to...
When I finished reading the book, I was surprised the incredible pain had suffered Sarah after her father”s death. She was happy, worriless, rich princess, but now she is a lonely, poor servant. She had to work very hard, but without any other small food only. Besides, she had to endure unfriendly, even treat her rude, and her classmates. All the teachers and students in the school despise her. The most important is, Sarah lost love and care of her parents.
How great pain! If you are Sara, can you tolerate the pain Needless to say, an 11-year-old girl, and even adults, he could not bear it. But to my surprise, Sarah face it. Although, the pressure, she is still very optimistic, facing life.
Through reading the novel, I feel inspired, think more. When we encounter difficulties, what should we do Some people always complain fate is not fair. Some people can sustain difficulties and choose to give up. Some people even tried to commit suicide, because they lack the courage to overcome it. Compared with an 11-year-old girl Sara - who can take the pressure of the life and optimism, these people also sounded so lamentable. Why don”t they make it
However, most is she impress me thought characteristic and her "is a real princess." The "princess" does not mean the grand palace, the beautiful clothes and apple others” eyes, but kind-hearted, generous and polite. This is unnecessary, "a real princess" is strong, but she must have a strong will. Sarah is a real princess, because you are in my heart, whether she is very rich, wears beautiful clothes in the classroom or her cold and hungry in the attic, just because she has a good feature and kind heart.
Fortunately, one of her friend Sara”s father found her, tell her that her father left for her great a sum of money. I prayed, and believe that all the good person should have a good result.
