1. 研究目的与意义(文献综述包含参考文献)

1 Introduction The main plot of the novel occurs between Elizabeth Bennet and Darcy. Though, it seems that they don't attract anyone's attention. As we all know, in the first ball, when asked to dance up to Elizabeth. He refused. He didn't think anyone in the village would be worthy of him. After that, Elizabeth promised not to pay more attention to him because of his pride. Finally, when all the truth is revealed, Elizabeth regrets. She found that she misunderstood Darcy. Darcy has changed. He asked her again, and was accepted by her. There is no pride and prejudice between them. The novel also reflects the author's own view of marriage: it is wrong to marry for property, money and status. She emphasizes the importance of an ideal marriage and regards the feelings of men and women as the cornerstone of an ideal marriage. It was because of pride and prejudice that I had a deep thought on marriage. The author describes several different marriages in the book with the words of wisdom, each of which reflects the attitude of the people to marriage at that time. Marriage between Jane and Bentley, Elizabeth and Darcy's marriage, Lydia and Wickham's marriage, Sherlock and Collins's marriage can be understood by Elizabeth's point of view. Through the heroine of the wisdom, we see the description of the marriage. It is wrong to marry for riches. This marriage does not maintain long - term happiness. A truly happy marriage is based on love and reason. 2 Literature Review Xu Yongxin (2013) believes that Elizabeth's concept of love in "Pride and Prejudice" reflects Austen抯 attitude towards love and marriage: a marriage simply for money, status, honor or appearance is immoral, but the marriage based on love and care must also consider economic factors, for both love and wealth are indispensable. Chen Yan (2013) believes that Austen describes both the wise part and the unwise part of women when in the choice of marriage. from the novel, it is easy to find that the author keeps stressing the importance of love in marriage and the concept that marriage for money and status is wrong,but not considering the above factors is also stupid. Female consciousness is also another element of Austen's embodiment: women must be eager to act and introspect to catch hope. Dignity and love are indispensable in marriage. At the same time, Austen ,with her delicate feelings, shows her concerns for women in the middle class and the marriage problems they have, just as she said: "To write several homes in the countryside" ,"To paint slowly with a brush, in a small piece of ivory of 2cm wide" , revealing the weakness of human nature, emphasizing the influence of the awakening of female consciousness on marriage. Zhou Yingchun (2011) thinks that although Austen had already been a woman of self-consciousness, she didn't find the way to seek women's freedom and equality, but just wanted to find some men who were different from "ordinary people" who are "self - Awakening" to "give" women freedom. And her view of marriage is but a misunderstanding of marriage, which is hard to work in any time. Therefore, if women want to seek equality, being independent, mainly economically independent is their only choice. Only in this way are they qualified to talk about equality. Huang Rui and Jia Peng (2009) analyze three typical marriages in Pride and prejudice based on Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory.They think Lydia and Wickham's marriage is based on the physiological requirements, Sherlock and Mr. Collins抯 is based on the security requirements, while Elizabeth and Darcy's marriage is the self realization. Lina (2005) by analyzing and comparing life, personality and the concept of marriage of Elizabeth in "Pride and Prejudice" and Bridget in the "B.J single diary", concludes that the secular vision, especially from mothers, has an important influence on their daughters?marriage choice. Halperin (1988), who studies Austen's life, finds that Austen was not rich enough to marry his loved ones. This is perhaps why she keeps emphasizing the importance of money in marriage in her novels. Ceil (1979) thinks that in the age of Austen's life, marriage is not a combination of love and romance, but a combination of maintaining and improving family social status. Maslow (1954) believes that human motivation can be divided into five levels. The pyramid of demand from the bottom to the top are physiological needs, safety needs, belongingness and love, esteem needs and self actualization needs. The second floor and the above is reached only when the lower storey is built. ? 3 The analysis of Elizabeth抯 character Elizabeth Bennet is a person worthy of our imitation. She is a model, because she is different from all the other characters, apart from Darcy. She is independent because she does not strictly abide by the social standards. Elizabeth rejected Mr. Corran's advice because she did not think marriage was boring, and she did not believe in marriage of convenience. When Mr. Collins said, "arrogant Elizabeth", she politely refused him. Unlike Charlotte Lucas, Elizabeth will not violate his principles and integrity and throw away her talents to marry Mr. Collins, a conceited, narrow-minded, conceited fool. Elizabeth looks very natural, because she believes in her perception and impression. On the other hand, she is not ready to resist the society. She does not completely ignore social ownership. She is very polite and her slight violation of etiquette and walking down the park alone is the reason she really cares about her sister's illness. When Lady Catherine criticized Elizabeth for playing the piano, she was just keeping polite. 4 Elizabeth抯 views about her sisters?and friend抯 marriage 4.1The most realistic marriage ?Charlotte抯 marriage For money and marriage, Charlotte's marriage is just to get a rich husband so that she can have economic security. Marriage is a task for them, but the Collins couple get what they want from their marriage: Charlotte has got a steady and prosperous life, and Collins has also got a warm home. This is their understanding of marriage. 4.2 The most ridiculous marriage ?Lydia抯 marriage Lydia and Wickham are an extremely absurd combination. Their relationship is entirely based on desire and appearance, without the foundation of love, neither realistic nor romantic. Lydia got the gratification of sexual desire; Wickham also got the wealth he wanted, which was their understanding of marriage. 4.3The most happy marriage ?Jane抯 marriage Jane and Bingley are considered to be the happiest marriages. Jane and Bingley match the appearance, the male prodigy, the opinion of anyone. They are most suitable for being together. Their marriage, love, in my opinion, is not the main foundation, mainly a kind of attraction. For Jane's beauty and Bingley, Jane attracts a kind of handsome and Bingley to attract gentry, and their love is more of a mutual admiration of love. Marriage is a complex contract, and both sides must have enough love to maintain the basis of the contract. But the love between Jane and Bentley is too flat. It was not deep enough to make me feel safe. It seemed to have a hidden danger. 4.4 The most admirable marriage ?Elizabeth抯 marriage The marriage between them is tortuous, but it is a deep-rooted foundation of love. "The economic and social structure has such a tremendous force that affects the interpersonal relationship between people, which makes her a monster of cartoonists" (D.W.Hardin 166-179). With the first courtship to be the boundary, it is not only Elizabeth and Darcy who have changed their minds. Elizabeth recognized their prejudice because of Darcy's letter; Darcy realized his arrogance because of Elizabeth's words. If Elizabeth did not refuse the first courtship of Darcy, perhaps Darcy's infatuation would not last. If there is no denial of dialogue, Darcy, though beautiful and rich, but he is too arrogant. For such a man, even if Elizabeth agreed to marry him, but in the near future, Elizabeth would still regret it. If we don't decline the letter, Elizabeth still thinks that although he is bright, beautiful and frank, but too subjective and prejudiced, Darcy will soon be tired of such a person. Because of these twists and turns, the love between them is more precious and deeper. 5 Conclusion There is no doubt that the love of Elizabeth and Darcy is a bright pearl in the history of literature, and their love is an ideal model for Austen "(Zheng 79). The author's view of 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 an ideal marriage and regards the feelings of men and women as the cornerstone of an ideal marriage. Love is impulsive, no reason, no passion, full of madness. Love itself is madness. How many people, however, can love madly? The reality is cruel, marriage is not equal to love, this ideal is far from us. The marriage between Darcy and Elizabeth is the happiest, with deep love, a necessary condition for Darcy's strong wealth. Money is not secular; wealth is like sunshine and nutrition their marriage which is envied by anyone. If marriage is such a castle, then I would like to be trapped in a city like this, is it not a happiness to be surrounded by love? Personally, pride and Prejudice reflects the feelings of the British in the conservative way at the end of eighteenth Century and early nineteenth Century, and tell us the different ways and attitudes of Bennet's five daughters' marriage. This reflects the author's attitude towards marriage, that is, love and marriage based on money, property and social status are imperfect, and very stupid. We must emphasize the importance of an ideal marriage and oppose love and marriage based on money or property. We must take love or love as the cornerstone of the ideal marriage for men and women. Elizabeth was born in a small family, and loved Darcy. Darcy asked her to marry him regardless of the difference of property and social status, but Elizabeth still refused him because of his pride. So, if Darcy's pride still exists, there would be no love between Elizabeth and him, and there would not be a happy marriage. I don't think arrogance and prejudice are very good. If a person is always full of pride, he will look down on others and think he is very clever. Because of Darcy's pride, Elizabeth was prejudiced against him. If a person is a prejudiced person, whenever he meets someone or something, his opinion of others depends on his past experience and his mood at that time. Even worse, he didn't think he was doing the wrong thing. He thinks that everyone is the same as him, and everyone has his own unique way of understanding the world, but it is absolutely wrong. Although everyone can judge according to 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 think rationally and thoughtfully, not just according to our wishes. That is to say, we should not have any pride and prejudice in others, especially faced with the person with marriage potential. pride and prejudice will never lead to a fair and objective outcome. However, the above statements do not mean that we should completely ignore economic and social factors. The five sisters?experience in the novel has taught us there is o perfect marriage in the world, but a relatively perfect one is still waiting if we can achieve a extraordinary balance between all the factors.

2. 研究的基本内容、问题解决措施及方案

There are several points in this thesis that contain great value as, which should be presented ahead. In Pride and prejudice, the view of marriage varies from person to person. In previous studies, most of the cases choose to center on women to analyze marriage, but this thesis analyzes views on marriage from these three angles: parents, men and women. Plus, analyzing the social environment that leads to the three types of people's outlook on marriage and their attitude towards the status of money is also included. To continue, researches on women in "Pride and Prejudice" mostly concentrate on the awakening of female consciousness. However, only discussions of the awakening of female consciousness and criticism of women marrying for money is not comprehensive. Women face the choice of ideal and reality in the face of marriage. As a social vulnerable group, their view of marriage has objective reality that they have to consider, which is worth discussing. Also, there are difficulties.For example, it is quite a job for scholars to study the factors affecting the marriage concept of men, so it is difficult to find a large amount of information to make reference. And there are many factors in the choice between the ideal and the reality. It is impossible to cover all the factors, therefore the thesis can only give the answer based on the given factors. Here are the procedures: 1.Collect literature and monographs on the study of marriage outlook in Pride and Prejudice 2.Make records while reading literature and monographs 3.Collate Abstracts when finishing up reading 4.Collect literature and Monographs on the study of male marriage 5.Collect literature and Monographs on the study of female marriage 6.Collate the collected data and integrate own views 7.On the basis of previous literature, through comparison and screening methods, from the angle of men, women, parents, and the ideal angle, analyze the views and attitudes of marriage of the characters in the novel,and further reveal the author's view on marriage and the influence and significance of the works to the society
