第 2 页 共 some 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.
