10、uages, Nanjing University of Finance and Economics1. Introduction This paper discusses and analyzes the view of marriage in the book Pride and Prejudice which reflecting the marriage view of people in the late 18th century and early 19th century. The causes of these four different kinds of marriage
11、views appeared will be discussed and analyzed in the thesis, such as the influence of traditional social background and the effect of the development of feminism at that time. For those literature stories written by writers like Jane Austen, the development of the love stories are always twisting bu
12、t has happy endings finally. Actually these tough plots of the love stories in Jane Austens book are the reflecting of the social pressure to marriage at that time. The word that Marriage has to be matched is rooted into peoples heart and the matched point always means the family background, namely
13、the material condition and power position. These books also express the yearning for free marriage with love of the writer herself which derives from her unsatisfying own love story at that era. For example, at the very beginning of the book, theres a sentence that “It is a truth universally acknowl
14、edged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.” (Austen, 1813:2)This sentence naturally draws the next topic of marriage and love, and then the story can go on. While this sentence also expresses its hidden meaning in it at the same time. For women, they need and
15、have to rely on men by marriage, especially marrying to rich men so that they would have dependence. Just like an American scholar said that the narrator wanted to be outside the story rather than observe the characters life and story, but this didnt last long. This story is mixed with the writers o
16、wn wish and idea. 2. The social background in late 18th century and early 19th century2.1. Womens social position at that time in late 18th century and early 19th centuryIn 19th century, womans position is not as equal as man like nowadays and woman is seemed to be not smart enough like man as well
17、as having enough ability to complete events so woman is connected to family and to deal with family problems only. Then people naturally had the thought that woman should obey to their husband and the tolerance and obedience are womans virtue at that time. They had to commit that woman are naturally
18、 not good and smart enough as man and they had to listen to mans words and orders. Man had become the only financial support in a home. So marriage is always linked to finance.At that era, the heritage cannot be received by woman, heritage is for man. So even though woman in middle class, they still
19、 had not much fortune after their fathers death. Man had become the only financial support in a home. So marriage is always linked to finance. For young ladies at that time, marrying to a rich man is the only way to get respect, peace and good social position. (颉,2000:28)The social environment of Au
20、stens era was not suitable for the creation of female characters because the view that female is naturally with low intelligence was rooted in peoples heart deeply, so many male critics always had psychological repellence to female writers or even combined words attack to female writers. Besides, ma
21、le critics always expressed an attitude of so-called protection to female writers that they usually considered the success of females as a result of luck and themes of works of female writers were not lofty. Under this kind of adverse environment, every works about feminism might be blamed or even c
22、riticized by those male critics, so feminism developed quite slowly but still kept going until today. In nowadays, females have had many rights comparing to before which is the result of fighting of every feminist in every time era. Although females have had many equal rights like males, unequal tre
23、atment still exists, such as in work, job and study. The view that woman should not go to work or should be at home to take care of children has been rooted deeply in peoples mind. Whats more, womans intelligence being not as good as man is also a common idea among people. Until nowadays, the femini
24、sm is still in the process of development and there are still many problems having to be solved. 2.2. The influence of the writer Jane Austen herself to the marriage view in the book Pride and PrejudiceJane Austen, the writer of the novel Pride and Prejudice, is a typical example who is the sacrific
25、e of pressure from social background to marriage. Austen loves writing since she is young and she often writes some short passage to read to others. She is a little proud before her meeting to Lefroy because Lefroy says that her eyesight is not broad enough so her works are also boring as well as la
26、ck of deep meaning. However, after gradual knowing to each other, they fall in love with each other. Their love is not allowed by Lefroys uncle, but his uncle is the guardian and he says that he would give him all his fortune only if he marries an acceptable woman. The condition of being acceptable
27、is the family background-fortune and position while Austen is only a common woman in town with not much money, no position and no heritage, so his uncle certainly does not agree on their love and marriage. Lefroy is required by his uncle to go back home and is engaged to a wealthy woman. Austen is v
28、ery sad at that time but as a woman, she can do nothing to change this situation. Meanwhile, a rich local minister loves Austen and he proposes to Austen even though his mother does not like Austen for her family background. After Lefroys leaving, Austen accepts the ministers engagement. No long tim
29、e after that, Austen sees Lefroy again because Lefroy escapes from his marriage and disobeys his uncles plan. Then Lefroys uncle says that his heritage would not be given to Lefroy, not even one penny. Austen is very happy and excited that Lefroy is willing to elope with her, and she is willing, too
30、. In her mind, elopement is a kind of expression of true love and against social bondage. However, she finally gives up because she sees Lefroys letters from his family and she knows that Lefroy has to get the money from his uncle in that he has to bring up his brothers and sisters and he uses pin m
31、oney from his uncle to raise his brothers and sisters. She thinks that she is selfish if she just goes away with Lefroy because that means cutting down the financial income of Lefroys, which he uses to take care his brothers and sisters. Not only from her book Pride and Prejudice, but also the love
32、story of herself, the pursuing of true love and marriage without any material bound, and feminism are expressed clearly. She combines the unequal treatment and feminism idea which can be seen everywhere in social reality as well as common wish to happy ending to her book and the description of sever
33、al different kinds of marriage to express how love is important in marriage and the balance of other factors. At the same time, Making Elizabeth as the heroine in the book obviously shows the theme from one clear aspect. Thats why American critic Edmond Wilson says, the Britain had ever had several
34、revolution in theme and style and the literal taste truly affects the reputation of almost every writer, but only Shakespeare and Jane Austen are keeping popular. and why Virginia Woolf says, her greatness is the most difficult to catch among all the writers.代写各专业硕博学位论文,代写代发CSSCI、北大核心论文,合作加QQ:970795

The development and influence of feminism at that time both in the book and society3.1. The development of feminism at that era in the society
37、In the 17th century, the feminism thought had been appeared. Some female pioneers started to write books and publish articles to call on people to realize womans rights and wanted to improve womans social position. They even set up schools for girls to teach girls advanced knowledge and spread the f
38、eminism thought. In the late 18th century, the private schools for girls in middle class had great development; the knowledge spreading covered more female people. However, many of these schools paid most attention to educate these middle class girls how to be elegant and courteous, which just made
39、preparation for their marriage.In the 19th century, females desire to equal rights had become more and more obvious. Marion Reid was a distinct representative. Reid thought that education for girls at that time limited the creation of female and females thinking ability cannot be expressed. The educ
40、ation at that time for girls just made girls as robots to receive rigid knowledge without any consideration.In the late 19th century, the development had not just been expressed via writing and paper. Real feminism campaign had started. They set up organizations to gather partners to fight for femal
41、e together. They tried to start high school for girls and negotiate with famous schools to give chances to girls by examination like male. At the same time, they encouraged woman to find jobs to realize their dream and provided professional skill training for girls so that they can have the ability
42、and good chance to get a job.3.2. The influence of feminism thought to characters in the bookIn the book Pride and prejudice, the pride and prejudice are the gap between Darcy and Elizabeth. Darcys pride leads to the prejudice of Elizabeth and her refusal to his proposing. With the development of fe
43、minism and the feminism campaign, the marriage view of woman at that time has some changes. For the main character Elizabeth, material condition is not the most important factor to consider when it comes to marriage. For her, love and appreciation are more important than material condition but this
44、does not mean that material condition is not considered, just not as important as love. Meanwhile, Darcy is so pride and impolite to her, and with the bad comments from other people, so Elizabeth dislikes Darcy. For Darcy, his pride is based on his material condition and social position. Because of the traditional social background, he has the right and ability to
