銆婂偛鎱?笌鍋忚?銆 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.) Kitty doesn鈥檛 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鈥檚 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:鈥淚t 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鈥?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鈥檛 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鈥檚 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 鈥淧ride and Prejudice鈥?the sister of Mr.Bingley strongly opposed his plan of marrying Jane because the Bennets don鈥檛 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 鈥渕oney determines everything鈥 is still rooted in some people鈥檚 mind.A lot of parents try hard to interfere their children鈥檚 marriages.Education background,possessions,jobs remains the main reason that may influence one鈥檚 marriage.Marry for money is still a big problem in our society.We can鈥檛 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 鈥淧ride and Prejudice鈥?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.鑼惰姳濂 Those Beautiful Flowers ---Book Review:鈥淐amille鈥 I read the Chinese version of 鈥淐amille鈥 a few years ago.At that time I was deeply moved by the main character Marguerite Gautier.鈥淐amille鈥 or 鈥淭he Lady of the Camellias鈥 by Alexandre Dumas,fils,is the story of Marguerite Gautier,a young courtesan,or kept woman,in Paris in the mid 1800's,and how she falls in love with a young man,Armand Duval,and then tries to escape from her questionable past.Unfortunately,it comes back to haunt her and she ends up returning to that life and dies painfully and alone,but with the knowledge that she was a noble woman at heart.When I first began to read the book,I did not care for Marguerite or her attitude or lifestyle,but as I got further into the narrative,I realized that her saucy attitude was a front to cover the lonely woman that she really was.She felt used,abused and unloved,until the gentle Armand Duval came into her life and showed her that he loved her as a person and not for what she could do for him.It must have taken great courage for Marguerite to leave the life she had lived for so long,knowing all along that it was probably too good to be true and would not last indefinitely.And it also showed that Marguerite really loved Armand Duval for she could even change herself for him.However,happiness didn鈥檛 last for long.When M.Duval,Armand's father,came to her,pleading for her to leave Armand to save both Armand's reputation and that of his younger innocent sister,Marguerite saw a way to become pure of heart,if not in body.She felt that it was her duty,because she loved Armand so much,to do this even though it meant giving up her own happiness and hurting Armand temporarily.She reluctantly returned to her former life,knowing that some day Armand would forgive her.Sadly,she died in debt and basically alone,except for her one female friend,Julie Duprat,who helped her during her illness.She had her journal sent to Armand after her death,explaining why she had made the choices she had.I think Dumas's last few lines about Marguerite being the exception,not the rule were quite true,and I also agreed with his view that while her lifestyle could not be condoned,we as a society assume that all of these type of women are cold and heartless,while this may not always be the case.A person can make the wrong choices in life when they are young,and try to redeem themselves,but sometimes past situations prevent them from changing their lives,even though they desperately wish to do so.This applies to both men and women in many different types of circumstances:involvement in crime; drug or alcohol abuse; gambling; prostitution; financial problems; poor marriage choices; etc.And this is the fact,which exists in the whole society.As far as the other characters in the book,I think Marguerite was right in saying that no one truly cared about her,but only wanted something from her,the only exceptions being Armand and Julie Duprat.Of course,the Comte de G.and Comte de N.wanted her body and appearance.The Duke needed to 鈥渨ake up and smell the coffee鈥 and realize that she could never replace his dead daughter.If he truly cared,he could have helped her leave her lifestyle without 鈥渒eeping鈥 her himself.And lastly,Prudence was a blood-sucking leech who used Marguerite almost worse than the men.I also think she was jealous of the fact that Marguerite had so much more courage than herself and someone truly loved her.Last morning,when tiding my bookshelf,I took this book out of the shelf,and a dried flower flew away from the book.It was pale blue,very transparent,with thin fine veins.a dried flower flew away from the book.It was pale blue,very transparent,with thin fine veins.I held it against the morning light and blew on it.The soft breeze carried it away.Camille is just like the camellia,she could never escape from the destiny of withering.But it wasn鈥檛 her fault; it鈥檚 because of the evil of Capitalism and the hideousness of that society.Suddenly,I remembered a saying:鈥淲omen are like the flowers鈥?Those pretty women are like those beautiful flowers; their delicate beauty makes people feel they are the miracle of life.However,even the God envies their beauty.It seems that beautiful women always have tragic endings.As we are normal persons,even we can see the hideousness of humanity that results in their fate of withering,we can at most ask quietly in our hearts:Where have those beautiful flowers gone?Where have they gone?
