染雾傲慢与偏见英文读后感 篇一
"Pride and Prejudice" is a timeless classic that has captivated readers for centuries. Written by Jane Austen, this novel delves into the complexities of romance, class, and societal expectations in the 19th century. After reading this novel, I was left with a profound sense of admiration for Austen's talent for storytelling and her ability to create characters that feel so real.
One aspect that stood out to me while reading "Pride and Prejudice" was Austen's portrayal of the societal constraints that women faced during that time period. The main character, Elizabeth Bennet, is a strong-willed and independent woman who defies societal norms by refusing to marry for financial security alone. She embodies the idea that women should have the freedom to choose their own paths in life, rather than being confined to the expectations placed upon them by society.
Another theme that resonated with me was the exploration of pride and prejudice in relationships. The title itself suggests that these two qualities play a significant role in the novel. Throughout the story, we witness the transformation of both Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy as they confront their own prejudices and learn to let go of their pride. This serves as a reminder that first impressions are not always accurate and that true love can transcend societal barriers.
Austen's writing style is also worth mentioning. Her prose is elegant and witty, and she has a knack for creating memorable and distinct characters. Each character is meticulously crafted, and their interactions with one another provide insight into the social dynamics of the time. The dialogue is sharp and filled with subtle humor, making the novel an enjoyable and engaging read.
Overall, "Pride and Prejudice" is a masterpiece that continues to captivate readers to this day. Austen's exploration of love, societal norms, and the importance of self-reflection is as relevant now as it was when the novel was first published. This timeless tale serves as a reminder that love can triumph over societal expectations and that true happiness comes from embracing one's own individuality.
傲慢与偏见英文读后感 篇二
Upon finishing "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen, I was left in awe of Austen's ability to create a world so vivid and characters so complex. This novel is not just a simple love story, but a social commentary on the customs and expectations of the time.
One of the aspects that struck me the most was Austen's depiction of the role of women in society during the 19th century. Elizabeth Bennet, the protagonist, defies societal norms by refusing to conform to the expectations placed upon her. She is intelligent, outspoken, and refuses to settle for a loveless marriage. Through Elizabeth, Austen challenges the notion that a woman's worth is solely determined by her marital status and wealth.
Furthermore, "Pride and Prejudice" explores the concept of first impressions and how they can often be misleading. The initial interactions between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy are filled with prejudice and misunderstanding. However, as the story progresses, we witness the transformation of both characters as they overcome their pride and prejudice, leading to a deeper understanding and love for one another. This serves as a reminder that true love requires empathy, understanding, and the ability to see beyond surface-level judgments.
Austen's writing style is also noteworthy. Her prose is elegant and refined, with a wit that adds a layer of humor to the story. The dialogue between characters is sharp and insightful, providing a glimpse into the social hierarchy and class dynamics of the time. Austen's attention to detail and ability to create fully fleshed-out characters make the story come alive, allowing readers to immerse themselves in the world she has created.
Overall, "Pride and Prejudice" is a masterpiece that continues to resonate with readers today. Austen's exploration of societal expectations, love, and personal growth is timeless and thought-provoking. This novel serves as a reminder that true happiness can only be found when one is true to oneself and willing to challenge the constraints imposed by society.
傲慢与偏见英文读后感 篇三
After a term’s reading, I finished ten more books, however, what impressed me most is Jane Austen and her two classical books.
In China maybe we all know LiQingzhao, a great female poet whose poetry are full of the emotions from the bottom of her heart. However, in England the figure maybe is my most admirable authoress Miss Austen who can never have too many respects from the common people just like me. After read her two masterpieces of books Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility, I feel so proud of being female to see a world-famous authoress using her independent thoughts, humor words to show us the relationship between the so-called superiors and the lower-class.
At that time, neither in the east nor in the west, it is not so easy for a woman to become a great figure with literary reputation. In China Li made it, while in England Miss Austen with her unique characteristic also realized her dream after a long struggle with the temporal points. It seems that all in Jane’s life, she made a decision between sense and sensibility; once there was an old saying “Affection is desirable, money is absolutely indispensable.” She resolutely chose her true love but not a splendid life or a comfortable home, what a pity she can not marry the one she did not really love even a beloved one, in her short life, she finished six famous books with her heart and soul but never married and stayed single for ever.
When reading Pride and Prejudice, I wondered why the oldest sister in the Bennet family also was named Jane, is there any possibility Jane Bennet is the soul of Miss Austen; and Miss Austen expected to realize all the pity which can not come true in her real life, so Jane Bennet was pictured as prefect as possible to be the best of the five sisters.
It’s a classical book with abundant description of everyone’s inner heart, especially the changes in their hearts. It can never deserve too many analyses for it was so wonderfully worked. One can say anything but ordinary to show our respects and admiration.
The man said“I do not have that talent of conversing easily with people I have never met before.” The woman said“We all don’t know him.” The book is full of the man’s pride and the woman’s prejudice in its lines and words.
From his pride we can see his confidence and persistence; whereas from his pride we can’t see his kindness and gentleness which he hid behind the surface.
From her prejudice we can see her firmness and treason; whereas from her prejudice we can’t see her expectation and worries which she hid behind the surface.
So it gave us a beginning of the story of pride and prejudice and led us to Miss Austen’s emotion world. So wonderful a book, so classical a story, so prefect a happy ending made it never a problem whether his pride or her prejudice counted, because of love, all can be neglected.
In the book once the proud Mr Dracy talked about the traits an accomplished woman must have, it needed a thorough knowledge of music, singing, dancing, drawing and modern languages, and besides this, a certain something in her manner of walking, in her voice and her behaviour. What’s more, something more solid, the improvement of her mind by wide reading. It could never be too strict for a common woman to follow.
About the attitudes to the marriage, Charles Dickens in the Oliver Twist also showed us the opinions of that day, he said if a man has ambitions to enter politics, then he marries a woman with a stain on her name, over though it’s not her fault, it might spoil his chances of success in his life. The society is cruel, people might use the knowledge of his wife’s doubtful birth against him, and against his children, too. And one day, he might begin to regret his marriage.
But love is so great that nothing can conquer it, and in the Pride and Prejudice we see the type of classical love, if we say in the realization we are so sorry to see the over more interest lead us to forget what love is, what a pity when love is not so pure as it should be, what a pity when love is used as a medium of exchange.
To my happiness the books inflected Miss Austen’s marriage view, it is wrong to get married for property, money and states. She objects to getting married for money and regarding the marriage as a trifling matter. She also points that the man and the woman’s emotion is the foundation of an ideal marriage.
After reading it, I feel that I just want to turn Elizabeth who is ordinary but with special beauty, brave but with a little stubborn, though she is not a prefect woman our eyes, she does be a woman with prefect disadvantages. To the hero Mr Dracy, I feel that I just want to marry a gentleman like Mr Dracy who always puts his love deep in his heart, till the day he made sure that Elizabeth was the one he wanted to spend the rest time of the live. Under the handsome and gentle; proud and serious face, there was a kind heart full of love.
Pride is just like a piece of beautiful clothes which is luxurious and untouchable. However, the expense of pride is loneliness. Prejudice is just like the clouds floating in the sky with its freedom. However, the expense of prejudice is lost.
What I learnt from the books and Jane Austen is deeply printed in my mind and I should never forget Elizabeth and Mr Dracy’s prefect love story, they usefully influenced each other. His mind might have been softened and his manners improved by her sociability, and she might have learnt from his greater judgment and knowledge of the world. Just like a fairy tale, the price and princess have a happy live together, which I am looking forward.
傲慢与偏见英文读后感 篇四
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 ve
ry 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 family of gentleman in the countryside is Jane Austen’s favourite topic. But this little topic can reflect big problems. It concludes the stratum situation and economic relationships in Britain in her century. You can find these from the very beginning of this book.
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.
傲慢与偏见英文读后感 篇五
Pride and Prejudice is a famous classic written by Jane Austen. I was attracted by the characters and plots of the film adapted from the novel.
Elizabeth is the heroine of the story. When she meets Darcy, a handsome, rich but arrogant man, on the party for the first time, she is dissatisfied with the proud manner of Darcy. Darcy looks down on those who are in a lower social class,including Elizabeth. However, after getting to know the courage, independence and confidence of Elizabeth, he almost falls in love with her. But Elizabeth believes the lies of Wickham which causes her great prejudice to Darcy. She rejects Darcy’s propose marriage to protect her self-respect. Finally, Darcy goes away because he couldn’t tolerate Elizabeth’s sisters’ vulgar manners. He writes a long letter to explain his thoughts and love to Elizabeth. After reading it, Elizabeth feels guilty about misjudging Darcy and regrets turning him down. As time goes away, Darcy gradually improves his pride and keeps helping Elizabeth’s family out from troubles. At last, Elizabeth removes the prejudice to Darcy and accepts his propose marriage.
From the film I learn that we can’t judge a man immediately by the first impression. If we are controlled by our subjective senses, it will easy cause prejudice andmisunderstanding and probably influent the developments of many events. To avoid this situation, we need more communication to understand others deeply by ourselves.
