1.Literature review

  Darcy is the hero of the famous English writer Jane Austen's novel pride and prejudice. His personality is highly self-esteemed due to his family conditions and family values. He is arrogant and arrogant.However, I was unable to make love for the first time, and then I thoroughly reviewed myself and finally corrected my arrogant attitude and became the ideal figure for everyone.

    In general, darcy's character has three aspects, namely, external arrogance, inner love, and knowledge and error.In these three aspects are heavily intertwined to form a full figure.But he is superhuman, straightforward, and also prone to hasty conclusions. His aristocracy and wealth made him arrogant.In fact, his recalcitrance was the main reason why his first proposal failed.When he proposed to Elizabeth, he talked more about the disparity in status between them than about her charm or beauty or any other compliment.Elizabeth's refusal instilled humility in him.Although darcy does not like Elizabeth's humble social relations, he is as loving to Elizabeth as ever: let the story have a development gap.

一 External arrogance

   In the novel, Darcy was born in a wealthy family. His favorable environment not only shaped his good breeding and elegant manners, but also cultivated his arrogant character. At this point, a life in the English countryside Bennett five sisters is mother "every wealthy bachelor, always want to marry a wife," the set-up of day and night looking forward to meet a "the bachelor", as Mrs Bennett anxious to introduce his daughter every outstanding bachelors to fuse, as the story begins. It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must have a wife, and that attending a ball is the best chance of getting to know them.When darcy first appeared at the party, people paid more attention to his good posture and handsome appearance. So people watched him with admiration for almost half the night, but attitudes and perceptions changed as the dance progressed. Especially when there was a young man at the party, he refused to participate. Darcy's personality is far more complex than that of an outspoken gently.When he first met Jane, he said. "the big mass of Bennett's house is not bad, but she laughs a lot."Darcy is a silent, arrogant, snobbish fellow. When he first met Elizabeth at the dance, his contempt for her was most repulsive."She's ok. " he said, "but she's not very pretty

    I can't move my heart." This caused Mrs. Bennett to be particularly resentful of his snubbing of her daughter-Elizabeth. It was even more unfortunate that his conversation with Bingley, in which he commented on Elizabeth, had been overheard by the party, had added to Elizabeth's impression of him as an arrogant, insolent man.

二 The emergence of love

    Elizabeth's visit to primarily house proved from the housekeeper's wife that darcy is a kind, friendly, amiable person. The so-called arrogance just does not want to grandstand just, and is also particularly concerned about the younger sister, care.As long as it is his sister's favorite, it will need to be done immediately. There's nothing he wouldn't do for his sister. And Elizabeth's visit to a very beautiful living room is a case in point. And he showed a fierce affection for the villain. Darcy was well aware of his misdemeanour, but when he expressed his unwillingness to be ordained, he gave him a sum of money, namely, as compensation for the loss of the priesthood and for the cost of his schooling. In the end, however, when wicked tried to kidnap his sister for revenge, the old steward and their family loyalty let him off the hook, which proved darcy to him.

三、Rectifies

    Almost everyone thinks Darcy is arrogant, tactful, rebellious, reserved, fastidious, and annoying even with good manners. Even when she proposed to Elizabeth, she was haughtily disgusted with her family.Elizabeth was convinced, therefore, that he was insolent, conceited, selfish, and contemptuous of the feelings of others, and thus laid the foundation of her discontent with him.Other incidents added to his hatred. However, when Darcy's proposal was rejected, he quickly realized it and corrected it. This was immediately corrected, but Elizabeth was too excited to find any merit in his behaviour.When she finally came to visit the west estate, Elizabeth found that his behavior had changed greatly and he was entirely polite. Her uncle, on the other hand, spelt him: "polite, discreet, unassuming, and perfectly behaved." His manners, and his subsequent intimacies, were likewise suave, good-humoured, so polite, that the thought of her scolding him at hunsford caused such a change in his manners and character. Even more let Elizabeth believe that he is really a good person to change.

Meaning of research

    The title of this novel is "pride and prejudice". Therefore, she focuses on the external arrogance of the protagonist Darcy, and through his behavior and comments on him by outsiders, she vividly depicts the arrogance quality of the upper-class people who are born into the noble family and have a lot of money. However, the author uses his inner love to highlight his humanity and create his characters of benevolence and beauty. And he used the character he knew he could correct to portray all his virtues as perfectly as possible.Let the readers have the respect and admiration for him.

1.Introduction

    Pride and Prejudice is the masterpiece of the famous novelist Jane Austen. In the work, Darcy's character is quite worth considering. Darcy gets into the plot almost accidentally, through his friendship with Bingley. Everyone is busy with the romance of Bingley and Jane, when all the time below the surface of the real drama is taking place in the half suppressed and halting growth of Darcy's and Elizabeth's love for each other. Darcy's character is a challenge to the perceptiveness of all the other persons in the novel. The many different interpretations of his personality establish him as one of those "intricate" characters just as Elizabeth says, are most amusing. The reader is not given a complete picture directly, but rather Darcy is presented through Elizabeth, Bingley, Wickham, Mrs. Bennet, Meryton, Pemberley, Lambton.

1.1 Reseach Background

    Jane Austen (1775 ~ 1817) was a famous English woman novelist in the late 18th century and early 19th century. In her words "small square two inches of ivory", Jane Austen described a series of life like, vivid characters. All of her six novels, Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Emma, Persuasion, Mans field Park and Northanger Abbey deal with "the business of getting married", are involving either so literary heroines or young women educated by events to cast aside the intrusions. Her presentation of "personality" of the individual consciousness and point of view, marks her as one of the first English novelists who project a world the "modern" reader can recognize as familiar.

    Possibly the been knownnovel of Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice was first written in 1796 as First Impressions. It was rewritten in 1812 and published in1813. The change in titles indicates a change from the notion that first impressions cannot believe that tothe moral cause of those mistaken impressions. The first thing that attracts the reader is the wonderfully lucidpresentation of character-especially through the bright and witty conversation. Pride and Prejudice deals with the everyday life of small and big landlords and their families in the English countryside, particularly withthe love and marriage of the younger members of those families. The story centers round the heroineElizabeth Bennet and the hero of FitzwilliamDarcy and a minor couple, her sister Jane and his friend Charles Bingley. The uneventful vicissitudes of the lives of these characters, including teaand visits and walks and dances and conversations and other expected or unexpected happenings, finally lead to the happy unions of the two couples. However, in spite of the rather narrow limits of the theme in her novel Jane Austen succeeds in producing very vivid portraits of her major characters and in painting realistic and colorful pictures of the life and manners of the upper middle class in rural England of her time.
