內(nèi)容概要

　　《純愛英文館：傲慢與偏見（英文版）》是簡·奧斯汀的代表作。這部作品以日常生活為素材，一反當(dāng)時社會上流行的感傷小說的內(nèi)容和矯揉造作的寫作方法，生動地反映了18世紀(jì)末到19世紀(jì)初處于保守和閉塞狀態(tài)下的英國鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)生活和世態(tài)人情。這部社會風(fēng)情畫式的小說不僅在當(dāng)時吸引著廣大的讀者，時至今日，仍給讀者以獨特的藝術(shù)享受。

章節(jié)摘錄

　　'Oh! Single， my dear， to be sure! A single man of large fortune; four or five thousand a year. What a fine thing for our girls! '　　'How so? How can it affect them?'　　'My dear Mr Bennet，' replied bis wife，' how can you be so tiresome? You must know that I am thinking of his marrying one of them. '　　'Is that his design in settling here?'　　'Design! Nonsense， how can you talk so! But it is very likely that he may' fall in love with one of them， and therefore you must visit him as soon as he comes. ，　　'I see no occasion for that. You and the girls may go， or you may send them by themselves， which perhaps will be still better; for， as you are as handsome as any of them， Mr Bingley might like you the best of the party. '　　'My dear， you flatter me. I certainly have had my share of beauty， but I do not pretend to be any thing extraordinary now. When a woman has five grown up daughters， she ought to give over thinking of her own beauty. '　　'In such cases， a woman has not often much beauty to think of. '　　'But， my dear， you must indeed go and see Mr Bingley when he comes into the neighborhood. '　　'It is more than I engage for， I assure you. '　　'But consider your daughters. Only think what an establishment it would be for one of them Sir William and　　Lady Lucas are determined to go， merely on that ac-count， for in general you know they visit no new comers. Indeed you must go， for it will be impossible for us to visit him， if you do not'　　'You are over scrupulous， surely. I dare say Mr Bingley will be very glad to see you; and I will send a few lines by you to assure him of my hearty consent to his marrying which ever he chuses of the girls; though I must throw in a good word for my little Lizzy. '　　'I desire you will do no such thing. Lizzy is not a bit better than the others; and I am sure she is not half so handsome as Jane， nor half so good humoured as Lydia.　　But you are always giving her the preference. '　　'They have none of them much to recommend them， ' replied he;' they are all silly and ignorant like other girls; but Lizzy has something more of quickness than her sisters. '　　'Mr Bennet， how can you abuse your own children in such a way? You take de Light in vexing me. You have no compassion on my poor nerves. '　　'You mistake me， my dear. I have a high respect for your nerves. They are my old friends. I have heard you mention them with consideration these twenty years at least. '　　'Ah! You do not know what I suffer. '　　'But I hope you will get over it， and live to see many young men of four thousand a year comes into the neighborhood. '　　'It will be no use to us if twenty such should come， since you will not visit them.'　　Depend upon it， my dear， that when there are twenty　　I will visit them all. '　　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. Her mind was less difficult to develop. She was a woman of mean understanding， little information， and uncertain temper. When she was discontented， she fancied herself nervous. The business of her life was to get her daughters married; its solace was visiting and news.　　……
