Characters of Mr Darcy
Brief Introduction
As we all know, Pride and Prejudice is a love story, but to some degree, this book is an illustration of the society at that time. Jane Austen perfectly reflected the relation between property and marriage at her time. Different people have different vivid characteristics in the novel. So, I will take Mr Darcy for example to show his personalities.
Analysis of Mr Darcy
1.wealthy and handsome
Mr Darcy is an extremely wealthy aristocrat. He has a large estate in Derbyshire as well as ten thousand pounds a year. While his friend, Mr Bingley only possesses four or five thousand pounds a year. From this reality, we can draw a conclusion that Mr Darcy is so rich. What’s more, he is a handsome gentleman. As the novel says “The gentleman pronounced him to be a fine figure of a man, the ladies declared he was much handsomer than Mr Bingley, and he was looked at with great admiration for about half the evening.” (p12) From the sentence, we know that Mr Darcy is so noble and attractive to draw so much people’s attention.
2.proud and haughty
From the title “Pride and Prejudice”, we can see that Mr Darcy is so proud. When the ladies are more than gentlemen at a ball, he is just
standing and does nothing. He is arrogant, fancying himself so great.
As you know, Elizabeth is a charming and lively lady, but Mr Darcy coldly said, “She is tolerable, but not handsome enough to tempt me.”
(p13). From this, we can infer Mr Darcy is so fastidious and haughty.
With the development of the story, he falls in love with Elizabeth, but he pretends to ignore her because of pride. For example, “Steady to his purpose, he scarcely spoke the words to her through the whole of Saturday, and though they were at one time left by themselves for half an hour, he adhered most conscientiously to his book, and would not even look at her.” (p76)
3.sincere and generous
According to Mr Darcy’s housekeeper, Mrs Reynolds says that he is always the sweetest-tempered, most generous-hearted boy in the world. In other words, Mr Darcy is liberal and generous,----to give his money freely, to display hospitality, to assist his tenants and relieve the poor. (p106) Mr Darcy is also a good brother because he always gives his sister any pleasure.
In another example, Elizabeth’s yo ungest sister, Lydia eloped with Wickham. This infamous elopement will make people look down upon the Bennets. Fortunately, Mr Darcy helped to solve this problem and covered the disgrace. From the details, he helped Wickham pay debts
and gave Lydia another one thousand pounds to make her settlement and so on.
4.devoted and consistent
Mr Darcy loves Elizabeth always the same from first to last. “If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes are unchanged, but one word from you will silence me on this subject for ever.” (p471) He is devoted to Elizabeth in spite of her refusal. Besides, Mr Darcy makes great efforts to help Lydia in order to please Elizabeth. From all of these, we can know that Mr Darcy loves her so deeply from heart and soul.
Conclusion
As a matter of fact, gold can’t be pure and man can’t be perfect. If a person wants to be recognized by the society, he must have many excellent qualities, such as patience, magnanimity, tolerant, easiness and so on. Anyway, the story ends with their happy marriage at last through Mr Darcy’s changes in his behaviors.

傲慢与偏见摘录英文
The distance is nothing ,when one has a motive. Mrs.Bennet’s eyes sparkled with pleasure. We must trespass a litter longer on your kindness. Mrs.Bennet was profuse in her acknowledgements. I often tell my other girls they are nothing to her. That is my idea of good breading;and those persons who fancy themselves very important and never open their mouths , quiet mistake the matter. A lady’s imagination is very rapid;it jumps from admiration to love,from love to matrimony . Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves,vanity to what we would have others think of us. He is ate up with pride. Upon my word ! Affectation of candour is common enough –one meets it everywhere.But to be candid without ostentation or design—to take the good of everybody’s character and make it still better , and say nothing of the bad—belongs to you alone Mr. Bennet was so odd a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humor, reserve, and caprice, that the experience of three and twenty years had been insufficient to make his wife understand his character. Everything nourishes what is strong already. She had high animal spirits,and a sort of self-consequence. The day passed much as the day before had done.
Pride and Prejudice 傲慢与偏见 中英文双语简介
Pride and Prejudice Pride and Prejudice is a novel by Jane Austen, first published in 1813. The story follows the main character Elizabeth Bennet as she deals with issues of manners, upbringing, morality, education, and marriage in the society of the landed gentry of early 19th-century England. Elizabeth is the second of five daughters of a country gentleman living near the fictional town of Meryton in Hertfordshire, near London. Though the story is set at the turn of the 19th century, it retains a fascination for modern readers, continuing near the top of lists of 'most loved books' such as The Big Read.[1] It has become one of the most popular novels in English literature and receives considerable attention from literary scholars. Modern interest in the book has resulted in a number of dramatic adaptations and an abundance of novels and stories imitating Austen's memorable characters or themes. To date, the book has sold some 20 million copies worldwide Plot summary The narrative opens with Mr Bingley, a wealthy, charming and social young bachelor, moving into Netherfield Park in the neighbourhood of the Bennet family. Mr Bingley is soon well received, while his friend Mr Darcy makes a less favorable first impression by appearing proud and condescending at a ball that they attend (this is partly explained in that he detests dancing and is not much for light conversation). Mr Bingley singles out Elizabeth's elder sister, Jane, for particular attention, and it soon becomes apparent that they have formed an attachment to each other. By contrast, Darcy slights Elizabeth, who overhears and jokes about it despite feeling a budding resentment. On paying a visit to Mr Bingley's sister, Jane is caught in a heavy downpour, catches cold, and is forced to stay at Netherfield for several days. Elizabeth arrives to nurse her sister and is thrown into frequent company with Mr Darcy, who begins to perceive his attachment to her, but is too proud to proceed on this feeling. Mr Collins, a clergyman, pays a visit to the Bennets. Mr Bennet and Elizabeth are much amused by his obsequious veneration of his employer, the noble Lady Catherine de Bourgh, as well as by his self-important and pedantic nature. It soon becomes apparent that Mr Collins has come to Longbourn to choose a wife from among the Bennet sisters (his cousins) and Elizabeth has been singled out. At the same time, Elizabeth forms an acquaintance with Mr Wickham, a militia officer who claims to have been very seriously mistreated by Mr Darcy, despite having been a ward of Mr Darcy's father. This tale, and Elizabeth's attraction to Mr Wickham, adds fuel to her dislike of Mr Darcy. At a ball given by Mr Bingley at Netherfield, Mr Darcy becomes aware of a general expectation that Mr Bingley and Jane will marry, and the Bennet family, with the

These past months have been a torment. I came to Rosings only to see you. I have fought against judgement, my family's expectation,the inferiority of your birth, my rank. I will put them aside and ask you to end my agony. Miss Elizabeth: I don't understand. Mr Darcy: I love you.Most ardently. Please do me the honour of accepting my hand. Miss Elizabeth: Sir, I appreciate the struggle you have been through, and I am very sorry to have caused you pain. It was unconsciously done. Mr Darcy: Is this your reply? Miss Elizabeth: Yes, sir. Mr Darcy: Are you laughing at me? Miss Elizabeth: No. Mr Darcy: Are you rejecting me? Miss Elizabeth: I'm sure the feelings which hindered your regard will help you overcome it. Mr Darcy: Might I ask why with so little civility I am thus repulsed? Miss Elizabeth: I might enquire why you told me you liked me against your better judgement? If I was uncivil, then that is some excuse. But you know I have other reasons. Mr Darcy: What reasons? Miss Elizabeth: Do you think anything might tempt me to accept the man who has ruined the happiness of a most beloved sister? Do you deny that you separated a young couple who loved each other, exposing your friend to censure for caprice and my sister to derision for disappointed hopes, involving them both in acute misery? Mr Darcy: I do not deny it. Miss Elizabeth: How could you do it? Mr Darcy: I believed your sister indifferent to him. I realised his attachment was deeper than hers.

傲慢与偏见译文分析
《傲慢与偏见》（节选之一）译文分析 Pride and Prejudice By Jane Austen (An Excerpt from Chapter One) 第一句："It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of wife."*在本文中"It is a truth universally acknowledged"在七个译文中，大多译为“一条举世公认的真理”。在译文一二三六中，几乎无差；但在译文四中，则直接译为“一条真理”；而在译文五中则译为“这条真理无人知晓”；译文七则为“谁都知道；在其余部分"single man"通常被译为“单身男人”或者“单身男士”。七篇译文各有千秋，译文一和二译为“娶位太太”；三译得颇有文采“娶妻室”；而四中而贫乏无味又显得庸长；五用的是“娶妻”用的不是很妥当，且与“单身汉”不呼应；译文七也是如此。 第二句："However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighborhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered as the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters."*在这七则译文中，文字上各有不同的修辞，修饰。在译文二三六七中，译者把"this truth is so well fixed in ...families"这句提放在句首，句式结构很具有逻辑性；而译文一则比较繁杂，啰嗦；在译文四中则把这句放在了句尾，没有起到强调作用；在译文五则译得比较贴切而又不失逻辑。 第三句："'My dear Mr Bennet',said his lady to him one day, have you heard that Netherfield Park is let at last?"*在译文一中，译者把“My dear Mr Bennet"译成“我的好老爷”，个人觉得用的不是很恰当，“老爷”这一词太偏中式化了；而在二三四五六七中，则均译为“亲爱的本内特先生”，给人一种太正式化的印象，夫妻之间的谈话更应亲密些；译文五译得比较好些；而在叙述句中，"said his lady to him one day"译文一四五把此译文放在了第一句，其他的则放在原句位置，个人认为放在句首更加贴切。 第四句："Mr Bennet replied that he had not."*这句简单的译文七句也各不相同。"replied"这词在译文一二三六七中均译成了“回答”，而that从句后后的"he had not"原句应为"he had not heard that"，所以则译为“他还没听说”或是“他还没知道”，个人认为这句，在译文一至七都译得比较不错，贴近原文意思。 第五句："But it is,returned she.For Ms Long has just been here,and she told me all about it."*译文"But it is"一至七中，译文二三译为“的确租出去了”；译文三则“可确是租出去了”’译文四则为“但的确已经租出去了”；文五则为“当真租出去了”；译文六与七则译为“确实租出去了”。在此七句中，我认为译文五译得比较贴切。"returned she"大多数译文则译为“她接着说道”。"all about it"有些译文译得比较繁琐，尤其是译文一；译文二三四六七比较恰当；译文四用了“原委”二字，非常生动形象。

《傲慢与偏见》英文读后感.doc
《傲慢与偏见》英文读后感 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 very 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.) K itty 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
英文版傲慢与偏见 人物剖析
When Prid e Encounters Prejudice, Everything is Different Ⅰ: Jane Austen (16 December 1775 –18 July 1817), one of the most famous novelists in Britain, was born in Hampshire. She lived in the villages throughout her life. Although there were 2 suitors, she never married. She finished her first novel when she was only 21 years old. This work’s name was First Impressions (After amending, it had a new name: Pride and Prejudice). Ⅱ: Pride and Prejudice is a humorous story of love and marriage. Mr. Bennet was an English gentleman living in Hertfordshire with his wife. He had five daughters: the beautiful Jane, the clever Elizabeth, the bookish Mary, the immature Kitty and the wild Lydia. Because of the law, after the death of Mr. Bennet, their house would be inherited by a distant cousin whom they have never met. This family's future happiness and security dependent on the 5 daughters’ marriages. One day, a rich gentleman Mr. Bingley came and rented a large house in this country. His sisters and his best friend Mr. Darcy came together. Love was soon in the air for one of the 5 sisters, while another had a prejudice against Mr. Darcy. Then they experienced many things, but at last, Mr. Bingley married the oldest sister Jane, and Elizabeth overcame the prejudice and married to Mr. Darcy. It’s a happy ending. Ⅲ： Although Mr. Song said the book report should be objective，but I had to say this book touched my heart d eeply. The women written by Jane Austen still live in our world. Some like Charlotte Lucas, they choose a marriage without love just for money and a stable life. Some like Lydia, they are so frivolous and foolish that they flatter themselves that they can do anything well. Some like Mary, they are not good-looking but think themselves are the best ones. They look down every man while they are eager for a man’s love in their hearts. Some like Jane, they are kind and beautiful, but they are also reserved and feminine。They don’t have courage to fight for the love of their own but wait here in vain. And there are also some girls like innocent Ms Darcy or like vainglorious and superficially clever Bingley sisters. Of course, some girls like Elizabeth, they are clever, gentle, open-minded, and they know their own hearts. They never give in even facing a difficult situation. They are good ladies who are worth loving and cherishing. Jane Austen’s wisdom always appeals to me, which makes me smile through the whole reading.
Pride and Prejudice傲慢与偏见赏析
Pride and Prejudice 1.主题(Theme) -----Theme of Love In Pride and Prejudice, love is not a necessary component of marriage.At the same time, it is shown to be a completely special emotion that is available only for intelligent, mature adults. ------Theme of Marriage The novel shows us the miserable marriage of the Bennets and mercenary marriages of Charlotte and Lydia, And with the marriages of Jane and Elizabeth front and center, the novel does allow room for good partnership as well. ------Theme of Wealth Wealth is crucially important in Pride and Prejudice. There is almost no conversation about potential spouses that doesn't also calculate the annual income that the pair might have to live on. ------Theme of Society and Class Darcy's character arc is to become the ultimate gentleman –he starts out wealthy, aristocratic, and good-hearted. Conversely, although Wickham seems to have the outer polish of an aristocrat, he is proven to be thoroughly ungentlemanly. ------Theme of Women and Femininity The novel is actually concerned with the plight of the middle-class, single woman. Most of the women we see here are caught in a bind. Pride and Prejudice offers us a look into this rather intensely feminine world of courting, marriage decisions, and social realities. ------Theme of Family We all have families that embarrass us to some extent, but the Bennet family takes it to a whole new level, creating endless problems for the two eldest Bennet daughters. the joy and pain of love, the pursuit of happiness and the infulence of social opinion. The main themes of pride and prejudice: love, reputation, class, courtship and pride. the last part of the paper shows that this great novel not only attracted thousands of readers in austen’s time, but also gave a special feeling to today’s people. 1. love between darcy and elizabeth 2. reputation--a woman’s reputation is of the utmost important 3.class boundaries and prejudice 4.courtship --those between darcy and elizabeth and between bingley and jane 5. two ways of pride: positive and negative 2.情节 Pride and Prejudice is one of the representative works of Jane Austen, first published in 1813.
