Book Report-Pride and Prejudice

오만과 편견이미지
 The novel was written by Jane Austen. The story follows the main character Elizabeth Bennet as she deals with issues of manners, upbringing, morality, education, and marriage in the society of the landed gentry of early 19th-century England. Also, she tends to judge on first impression, so she decides that Mr. Darcy is excessive pride at a ball that Elizabeth attended. Mr. Darcy is the wealthy owner of the famous family estate of Pemberley in Derbyshire. He is handsome, pride, tall, and intelligent. At a ball given by Mr. Bingley who is Mr. Darcy's friend at a Netherfield, Mr. Darcy becomes aware of a general expectation that Mr. Bingley and Jane who is the eldest Bennet sister will marry. But Mr. Bingley abruptly quits Netherfield and returns to London, devastating Jane, and Elizabeth becomes convinced Mr. Darcy has colluded to separate him from Jane. Her dislikes of Darcy hardens further. Thus she is of no mood to accept when Darcy arrives, and confesses love for her and begs her hand in marriage. But Elizabeth rebukes him because she decides he is arrogant. The more she meet him, the more she has misjudged him. Suddenly, Mr. Bingley's returns and subsequent proposes to Jane, who immediately accepts. After Lady Catherine  do Bourgh warms Elizabeth against marring Mr. Darcy and drops by inform her nephew on Elizabeth's abominable behavior. However, this lends hope to Darcy that Elizabeth's opinion of him may have changed. He goes to Elizabeth and proposes again. Then, Elizabeth accepts. The course of Elizabeth and Darcy's relationship is ultimately decided when Darcy overcomes his pride, and Elizabeth overcomes her prejudice, leading to them both to surrender to the love they have for each other. The last scene is impressing when I read the book. After I read the book, I saw pride and prejudice which is made by the book into a movie. It will probably work better as a book than as a film. But if you read the book, I will recommend the movie, too.

  3. Hello Chae Eun~ I love this story very much! I actually love everything that Jane Austen wrote; I recommend all of them. But this is one of my favorite books of hers. I also enjoy the BBC dramatization that you have a picture of on your blog, and the newer movie. The piano music in the newer movie is very beautiful. I hope you can read more of Jane Austen's books!
