Abstract:Pride and Prejudice is one of the great works of England’s great writer, Jane Austen. In this work, Jane Austen describes four different marriages in Pride and Prejudice. Through the analysis on four marriages in Pride and Prejudice, this dissertation discusses different concepts of love and marriage of four different marriages and analyses the views about love and marriage of Jane Austen. There are four different marriages with different concepts of love and marriage, and different roles have different ideas about love and marriage. In Pride and Prejudice, Some people just want to have power, status and wealth, and others only look for true love. But people need to consider the importance and cruelty of reality in marriage. Reality is ruthless, people should have clear ideas about love and marriage, and don’t be fooled by false and unreal things. The true love is the foundation of a happy marriage; if people ask for too much on power, status and wealth, they can not have true happiness on love and marriage.
