Different people may have different attitudes toward marriage. Someone will consider that love is the fundamental of marriage, while some people may realize that marriage can provide opportunities of class mobility and financial support; money and class are thus closely connected in their decision of marital partners. Powerful as love is, it can let the hero restrain his pride, and let the heroine abandon prejudice, and re-know and accept a person. This thesis first of all introduces the author and the novel, followed by character analysis of the two protagonists and how pride and prejudice influence their relationship from the beginning to the end. The paper aims at proving that one has to give up his pride and prejudice and treat people rationally and impartially through the change of the two protagonists’ relationship.
