Reaction to Pride and prejudice

Pride and Prejudice was Jane Austen’s second novel written in 1796 and was published in January 1813. The main subject in the novel is stated in the first sentence of the novel: "It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife." In this statement, she has declared that the main subject of the novel will be courtship and marriage. Similar to other Jane Austen’s novels, it was written in gentle satire. The main object of Jane’s satire in the novel is the mercenary and the ignorance of the people, a common criticism of the 18th century.

However, it is the priceless love that impressed me most. Pride and Prejudice contains one of the most valuable love stories in English literature: the courtship between Darcy and Elizabeth. As in any good love story, the lovers must overcome many stumbling blocks, beginning with the tensions caused by the lovers' own personal qualities. Elizabeth's pride makes her misjudge Darcy on the basis of a poor first impression, while Darcy's prejudice against Elizabeth's poor social standing blinds him to her many virtues. Austen, meanwhile, put countless smaller obstacles to the realization of the love between Elizabeth and Darcy. In each case, anxieties about social connections, or the desire for better social connections, interfere with the workings of love. Darcy and Elizabeth's realization of a tender love seems to imply that Austen views love as something independent of these social forces, as something that can be captured if only an individual is able to escape the effects of hierarchical society. Yet with this devious love story, I know and believe that true love is a force separate from society and one that can conquer even the most difficult of circumstances.
