Social Background
The story of Pride and Prejudice took place in the time of the Regency in Britain.At that time,Britain was at the period of transition from the earlier stage of Capitalism to Capitalist Industrialization.In the countryside,the aristocratic family still held great power and right that country squires were likely to fawn upon them.However,as the development of Capitalism and the expand of the rank of rich people,the distinction between social strata was becoming smaller and smaller,while money was getting more and more important in people’s mind about social value.A western literature critic once said that “ even David Ricardo (a British economist) had a unlikely clearer understanding about the function of money in daily life as Jane Austen had.”(3) It is exactly because of the secure pledge in finance that the country squire society could be existing strongly and solidly.
