内容摘要
简·奥斯汀是十九世纪英国文学史上最伟大的现实主义小说家之一。
她的《傲慢与偏见》于1813年问世,是一部享誉世界的著名小说。
小说将故事情节置于十九世纪初,十九世纪的英国,婚姻是女性获得社会地位和社会认知的唯一途径。
本文使用社会历史批评的方法来分析小说中五种不同类型的婚姻,探讨金钱与爱情在婚姻中的重要作用,从而得出作者简·奥斯汀的婚姻观:
财产、门第和爱情是婚姻中必不可少的三个因素,为了金钱而结婚是错误的,然而缺少金钱的婚姻也是不明智的。
奥斯汀的婚姻观强调爱情和经济条件,但是爱情起着重要的作用,这一点在奥斯汀所处时代是有重要意义的。
本文作者意在借用奥斯汀的一些进步观点为现代女性在婚姻观方面提供一些借鉴,同时为使用文学批评方法研究奥斯汀的这一著作增添一些新的东西。
