Twists and turns
Reading or for the plot. Twists and turns bring visual impact, or nature itself of interest, or only through reading to precipitate the mind, edify temperament...
Of course, I do not deny that the romantic aestheticism in the book makes me fall in love with the feeling of being intoxicated, nor do I deny that the author's superb brushwork depicts lifelike people, things and objects, which are the attraction to readers, attraction becomes temptation, interest arises naturally. I love foreign works, and I firmly believe that works that have been pursued by generations definitely have something worth studying, learning from and reflecting on. However, due to the lack of language, I can only read the translation, which is somewhat regrettable, after all, no translator can fully express the spirit of the original work.
Pride and Prejudice , when I heard the title, my first thought was, "What's it all about?" I had no idea. After reading the preface, I realized that this book mainly reflected the conservative and closed British village life and local customs in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Taking the marriage between Elizabeth and Darcy as the main line, it highlights the different attitudes of girls from middle-class families towards marriage.
"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife."
Elizabeth - Sensible, humorous, playful. What I admire most is her reason, reason clever girl is rare, reason lovely girl is rare. Darcy's arrogance made her unhappy at the beginning, and Wickham's reversal of black and white made her loathe Darcy even more. Therefore, she decisively refused his proposal. Darcy, the master born with golden keys in the upper society, handsome appearance, of course, is the prince charming in the hearts of women, however, she has her own principles, her marriage must be built on feelings. Status, status, money -- Of course, it would be foolish to get married without thinking about these factors. A sensible choice, a marriage without affection is less perfect and less happy. It is a wise choice to base marriage on emotion. Later, Elizabeth realized that it was all a misunderstanding through Darcy's message. Darcy is the real victim, wickham is actually a good man inside evil. Elizabeth repented herself for her folly and changed her mind about Darcy. Darcy, in particular, returned the following summer with unfailing civility. Her prejudices were completely removed, and she began to warm to Him.
As people of different classes, Darcy and Elizabeth's union is blocked. What impressed me most about aunt Catherine's sarcasm was this retort: Lady Catherine, your fanciful claims are unreasonable, and much of what you say superficial and frivolous. You think very wrong of your man, if you think you can persuade me to yield. To what extent your nephew will allow you to meddle in his affairs I do not know, but you have no right whatsoever to meddle in mine. I therefore beg you not to press me on the subject any longer. What a sensible and sharp girl, I couldn't help but applaud her.
What do you say, Darcy? The initial arrogance was really annoying. But, as Xalotti says, his pride does not offend me so much as other pride does. It makes sense because of his pride. One cannot wonder that so very fine a young man, with family, fortune, every thing in his favour, should think highly of himself. If I may so express it, he has a right to be proud. And through the following information, I understand Darcy's arrogance, as Mary said in the book: vanity and pride are two very different things, although the words are often used synonymously, a person can be proud without being vain. Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what we would have others think of us. Darcy's arrogance is self-assured and uncommunicative, with a somewhat grandiose twist.
As Elizabeth said, I could easily forgive his pride, if he had not offended mine. Everyone has his own pride, when you bring someone else's pride to the table, especially the person himself has the cost of attracting attention, no doubt also increased the outside world to this concept of affirmation. Therefore, Darcy was the focus of attention, and naturally his pride became known as pride, and was magnified.
I like Darcy very much, Darcy's kindness, magnanimity are all I appreciate. For the destruction of his sister's famous festival, the seizure of their property Weikehan. He didn't make a scene, and he arranged his marriage to Delia, paid off his gambling debts, found him a job. At the same time, I felt happy for Elizabeth, what a perfect lover, especially when she was refused marriage, Darcy put down his male dignity and continued to pursue love. Darcy's forbearance, his gentleness, his unfailing love, made me feel a little sad for him.
Wickham, I have to say, is a good satirical cameo. No matter I read a book or watch a movie, it is easy to get into the plot, sometimes for the misunderstanding between the protagonist, hurt and depressed, sometimes also hate the villain to gnash teeth. Of course, I have to admire the author or actor, can describe and deduce the leading role so vivid, real. Through the author's description, I think he is a Wolf in sheep's clothing. He has done all the shameful things, but he is still as elegant as before, smiling and talking calmly. At this point, I really want to shout: what a cheeky man. I do not know whether he is shameless or does not care about the eyes of others. Although there is a famous saying, "Go your own way, let others talk", but beyond the most basic degree of being a "person", I still go my own way without red face and breath, then I only have contempt.
When I read this sentence, I almost burst out laughing and couldn't wait to share it with my roommates. A person's appearance is only skin appearance, ironic weikehan handsome appearance under a secular heart. He was not a god, not a Buddha, but a man of extraordinary appearance who was not immune to the idea of making money through marriage. I forgive him for what he did, just forgive, but I don't understand. I am no god, and I shall despise him but have no right to lash him. His selection is only a typical representative of the society at that time. I just wonder, at that time, who would preach that marriage must have feelings? Even now, getting married is mostly about meeting the right person at the right time.
Jane, a woman as gentle as water. I put a label on her in my heart -- the best of ladies. A little self-pity, maybe this life and lady no longer. Elizabeth once said that she was affectionate but stable in character. If a girl uses the same technique to hide her feelings from a man she loves, she may not be able to impress him, shalutti says. As she had expected, bingley's affection for Jane was real, and there was no further development. But fortunately, all shall be well in the end. I admire Jane for her unfailing character. But DO not deny, I reject this kind of "mask".
But who doesn't have a mask? Is it "simple" or "stupid" to wear no mask, especially in this competitive world? A man who can be easily read is dangerous, isn't he?! I'm glad Jane's not a sly one, but that kind of self-protection of character is a little over the top when it comes to family, friends, and lovers. The proper release of emotions makes you closer and more trusting, doesn't it?
I'm a little puzzled that Charlotti, who knows a lot about things, chose a money marriage. "You know THAT I am not a romantic man, that I am nothing of the sort. I wish nothing but a comfortable home; and considering Mr. Collins's character, social connections, and position in life, I feel as likely to be happy with him as most people can boast on being married. Reflecting on this paragraph, I think she is very realistic and realistic some terrible. She only seeks material comforts, but what about spirit? The satisfaction of vanity? In the social background at that time, there were many people who took money as the index of happiness. While criticizing these people, I also sympathized with them. I think she must not understand the meaning and feeling of true happiness. What does a guy value when he proposes to two girls in three days? But also interests, such a person can rely on it? It goes without saying.
What is affection? I don't know, but I long for it. What is marriage? Not the grave of emotion, but the sublimation of emotion. After reading this book, I admire Austen very much. Not for her delicate and vivid writing, but for the whole book to promote the self-freedom and bold pursuit of marriage feelings, as well as the ubiquitous feminism and satire against the idea of child marriage and money marriage, I also feel very emotional.
Now, the new era we must pursue the real happiness of the emotional marriage, do not for a greed into the money vortex, ruined life.
