Title: Pride and Prejudice
***** (5 stars aNobiane)
Author: Jane Austen
Description
"Published in 1813, Pride and Prejudice is the most popular of Austen, the most perfect balance of polish and narrative style, "he writes in the introduction Attilio Bertolucci. "Around the character of Elizabeth, pretty without being beautiful, intelligent and firm without being harsh, the truth comes out of England before the industrial revolution, with its green forests in the mud of its fall season, with the red of his military uniforms. "
first stop. From Chap. I chap. XV, including Short
comment
The book is really like me. I love the conversations between Mr. and Mrs. Bennet, and the relationship between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy very promising: the two were exchanging jokes so significant that one can not participate emotionally in their game of interest and pride.
I find the character of Elizabeth very modern, especially thanks to the spirit of independence which is equipped. Mr. Darcy is truly fascinating, a "dark": the sex symbol who secretly inflames the heart of every woman.
Jane Austen's style is sublime: so intelligent and harmonious, but at the same time smooth and intimate. Its critical and ironic vein is always present and the story seems to be told by a friend with some extraordinary properties of language, but also nice.
I look forward to continuing my reading ...
3 interesting quotes: The novel attacks
now ironically with the theme:
- "E 'truth universally acknowledged that a single man very well endowed with property and fortune should feel the need to marry. " ^ _ ^
then ...
- "Pride has to do mainly with the view we have of ourselves, vanity with this che vorremmo che gli altri pensassero di noi."
- "Nel matrimonio la felicità è dovuta al caso. Per quanto due persone possano sapere dei reciproci caratteri e per quanto questi possano essere simili, tutto questo non servirà minimamente a renderli felici."

Breve commento
Ragazze, eccoci alla seconda tappa! :) Che dire…
La lettura prosegue emozionandomi ogni pagina di più. La curiosità prende talvolta il sopravvento e divoro i capitoli come una leonessa famelica. Un romanzo troppo ben fatto, ecco.
Continua la delicata caratterizzazione dei personaggi e il quadro dell’epoca is full of details and colors. In this part make their appearance important to Mr. Collins and Mr. Wickham, the first so talkative pimp boring, the second apparently perfect, but prone to gossip and what not a little suspicious to me. On the sensitive reader begins my disappointment to the blind world view of Jane: Is there really a good girl so that I could not grasp the dark side of the next? Jane Wake up! The behavior of Charlotte Lucas does not surprise me too much: it fits perfectly in the middle-class milieu to which it belongs, in fact, only Elizabeth and Mr. Bennet seems to come out because of their unconventionality. What about Miss Bingley ... but absolutely nothing! E 'character perfect for the plot of the story. In conclusion
expensive "sister" (read:) I can only go on the book with the ecstasy that only the first reading can give. After reading I see the movie or the show ... as transpositions between 1000 television movie or do you recommend to see?? Kisses.
Third stage. From chap. XXVII chap. XL Short
including comment
What novel! ... As you can not divorarselo!?
This is the stage that certainly won me over, for obvious reasons;)
's been too nice follow up to that point can sink the pride of Mr. Darcy and the prejudice of Elizabeth against him ... I am thrilled at every meeting so curious to follow conversations at times and number of circumstances, sometimes close and mocking. Eliza On the one hand I wanted to continue with its provocative and engaging air, he opened his eyes and the other plainly saw the glimmer of affection that leaked from the attitudes of our darkness. Their complicity is increasingly evident, as the obvious understanding that the two are made for each other. And it's all a crescendo, until ... (I will not run into spoilers!). Girls
'm going to continue reading ...:)
Fourth stage. From ch. XLI chap. The brief included
comment
We reached the fourth stage. The relationship between Elizabeth and Mr Darcy becomes increasingly complex, yet clear: the two can finally meet in the true sense of the word, Mr Darcy now seems to have freed himself of his pride, at least in part, and our heroine of her prejudices. Elizabeth studied with the attitude of impartiality, the ways, his character and begins a journey of self-analysis that leads her to discover new sensations in her near him, to consider his new feelings. The affection of Mr. Darcy is now clear and the situation seems to have turned in favor of the blossoming of true love, but lack still about 100 pages to the end and the Austen part at this point a nice twist! Curious? ^ _ ^
Fifth stage. From chap. LI chap. LXI including
Short comment
This last part is very exciting, the rest is ... the end! :) The
Austen is a magician of the pen and the book concludes with dignity, not a comma is out of place, not a detail is ignored. The height of genius is, in my opinion, reached in the meeting / clash between Elizabeth and Lady Catherine de Bourgh: what pace!
I am infinitely happy to have read this book, not just seeing the 2005 film starring Keira Knightley: P Council Instead the TV miniseries in six episodes of the 1995 Simon Langton!
dispassionately conclude by advising that this book deserves 5 stars aNobiane (if not something more:)
End ^ _ ^
