Winner of the 2009 John Whiting Award for drama. An incredibly bold and mature first play, reminiscent of Noel Coward's Design For Living and Kevin Elyot's My Night With Reg. Alternating between 1958 and 2008, and featuring the same three people, forever thirty-something, living similar but radically different lives, The Pride examines changing attitudes to sexuality over a per...(展开全部)

For over 150 years, Pride And Prejudice has remained one of the most popular novels in the English language. Jane Austen herself called this brilliant work her "own darling child." Pride And Prejudice , the story of Mrs. Bennet's attempts to marry off her five daughters is one of the best-loved and most enduring classics in English literature.

《傲慢与偏见》主讲了奥斯丁的讽刺艺术，不仅表现在某些人物的喜剧性格上，也不仅表现在众多情节的喜剧性处理上，而且还融汇在整个故事的反讽构思中，让现实对人们的主观臆想进行嘲讽。男主角达西最初断定，贝内特家有那么多不利因素，几个女儿很难找到有地位的男人，可后来恰恰是他娶了伊丽莎白。而伊丽莎白呢，她曾发誓决不嫁给达西，可最后还是由她做了达西夫人。再看看那个不可一世的凯瑟琳·德布尔夫人，为了阻止伊丽莎白与她外甥达西攀亲，她不辞辛劳，亲自出马，先是跑来威吓伊丽莎白，继而跑去训诫达西，殊不知正是她这次奔走为两位默默相恋的青年通了信息，促成了他们的美满结合。更令人啼笑皆非的是，就在这几位“智者”受到现实嘲弄的同时，书中那位最可笑的“愚人”贝内特太太，最后却被证明是最正确的。她认为：“有钱的单身汉总要娶位太太，这是一条举世公认的真理。”这种荒谬与“真理”的滑稽转化，尽...(展开全部)

Few have failed to be charmed by the witty and independent spirit of Elizabeth Bennet. Her early determination to dislike Mr. Darcy is a prejudice only matched by the folly of his arrogant pride. Their first impressions give way to true feelings in a comedy profoundly concerned with happiness and how it might be achieved. Edited with an Introduction by Vivien Jones

He explains how language has been used by the great heroes of...(展开全部)
