The opening sentence of Pride and Prejudice left the deep impression on readers almost two centuries ago. As the author of Pride and Prejudice， Jane Austen was one of the famous realistic writers in English literature in the nineteenth century. In Pride and Prejudice Austen wrote four marriage types: ideal Elizabeth and Darcy， realizable Charlotte and Collins， felicitous Jane and Bingley， unhappy Lydia and Wickham. She pointed out emphatically economic consideration is the bonds of wedlock and love. She said marriage is not determined by property and family status; it is unwise to marry without money， but it is wrong to marry for money; the marriage settled by love is happy and ideal.

1. Introduction 引言

Jane Austen was a British woman writer. One of Jane's most remarkable traits was her observation of human character and nature. And Pride and Prejudice has won her the highest reputation. The original version of the novel was written in 1796-1797 under the title “First Impressions”， and was in the form of an exchange of letters.It mainly describes the development of the relationship between Elizabeth Bennet， an intelligent young woman and the daughter of a country gentleman， and Fitzwilliam Darcy， a rich and haughty aristocratic landowner. The title ”Pride and Prejudice'” refers (among other things) to the ways in which Elizabeth and Darcy first view each other.

In this novel， Jane Austen conveyed her objection to the marriage only for money and status as well as the marriage without consideration for the same background， which was totally odd at the time. She advocated the marriage for both love and economic consideration with love playing the leading role. Meanwhile， she also exposed that the essentials of bourgeois marriage are a deal of money and a combination of benefit under the patriarchy. The style of Pride and Prejudice is well ahead of the other novels of the time and it has a kind of fairly deep power of art.
