Analysis of Pride and Prejudice
Elizabeth, like Joseph Andrews, was a virtuous person. She was confident, knew what
she wanted, and stood by her values under any circumstances. When we look back at
the people of the 18th century, we can clearly see that their value judgments were
different. Women's only desire was to have a good husband. Above all, one must have
pride. For a good relationship, people must know themselves. Elizabeth was such a
woman, but the awareness of a person born in such a society became both her
greatest punishment and her greatest fortune. She was able to find someone like
herself. Looking back at the novel, it is rare for such an event to occur in such a
society, and this stands out as a masterpiece. Even in our current world, people
are the same as they were in the past, only the opportunities have changed. It is
also an obvious fact that people who possess the virtues of honesty, goodness, and
sacrifice in real life are isolated in society, as we can clearly see with Mrs.
Bennet.
People's value judgments largely come from their family and environment. Mr. Bennet
is a witty and intelligent man. Elizabeth's independent thinking and sense of humor
largely come from her father. Her mother's pressure on marriage caused her to
distance herself from such thoughts and develop her own values. At the same time,
Charlotte's sudden decision allowed her to deeply examine her perspective on
marriage.
Elizabeth's constant reading gives her critical thinking skills. This enables her
to look from a broad perspective and form her own value judgments. Elizabeth's
observation skills allow her to evaluate herself.
Although the 18th century was the beginning of the modern world, there was class
and gender discrimination because the complexity and change of the social structure
were slow to occur, as clearly shown in the novel "Pride and Prejudice.
