How to appreciate Pride and Prejudice from the perspective of ballroom dancing?

They were dancing English country dances, and Darcy didn't like them because he was arrogant. People who don't like to dance are not very good at expressing themselves, so although Darcy is honest and kind, he is misunderstood by everyone, including Elizabeth.

And the lively Mr. Bingley and Elizabeth liked to dance this dance, these two people did not have Darcy brains, but they were very easy-going, especially Elizabeth was very naughty. Therefore, hobbies have a lot to do with personality.

At that time, the country dance was a group dance, everyone danced together, young men and women lined up together, that feeling so innocent, there was no ambiguity of other ballroom dances, showing the atmosphere of boys and girls' first love, especially the simple white dresses worn by girls have this feeling, in fact, British costumes are really very clever, not lost to France at all.

That kind of country dance, the posture is upright, and the two sides of the dance are just holding hands and holding arms, but it is classical and elegant, like pastoral romance. It's not too romantic, with a bit of sensible politeness, and a legacy of Greek art. The British rural culture is envied by this dance alone, so the tasteful Elizabeth has no secret of her love for country life.

Pride and Prejudice is very good, and I think every girl is eager to express herself, including Elizabeth. But Darcy didn't understand it because of his face,—— so he admired it a lot.

Pride and Prejudice

There are two main roles in the book:

1.Deepen character building.

This is mainly reflected in three aspects: first, many of the parties in ** are arranged by the author as the scene of the character's first official appearance. On this basis, some of the main characters begin to come into contact with each other, and then their personalities are revealed through the words, deeds, and psychological portrayals of the characters.

For example, the specific description of the Meryton Ball in Chapter 3 of Volume 1. Will be a popular, gentle Bentley.

Image, slightly arrogant Darcy.

The image is vividly portrayed. Jane and Elizabeth are also shown.

The personal feelings for each roll are confused.

Mr. Bingley's appearance at the ball was highly praised and recognized, as was his sister. This is evaluated from the perspective of the "people" who attend the ball.

They were greeted by Lucas long before the prom.

Such a compliment from Madame, Bennett.

Mr. affirmed him and Bennett's expectations for his wife and daughter, the ball has become a way for "neighbors" to observe and appreciate guests, and it has also become a window for the author to portray Bentley's character, which is reflected in Bingley's words and deeds at this ball.

2.Drive the plot.

The "Meriton Ball" described in Book I, Chapter 3, provides the protagonists with a chance to meet for the first time, and also allows Bentley.

Fell in love with Jane. At the Nigerfeld Ball in Chapter 18 of Book I, Jane and Bingley get closer. When the awkwardness between Elizabeth and Darcy, Miss Bingley's rudeness, Collins.

and when the post-dinner singing event took place, Jane was "calmly talking to Mr. Bingley."

Even when the guests said goodbye to each other, "Bentley and Jane stood together, some distance from the others, talking to each other". This not only illustrates the function of the ball itself as a place of communication, but also shows that the relationship between Jane and Bingley is gradually deepening, that is, using the opportunity of the ball to enhance the understanding and relationship between each other, immerse yourself in the atmosphere of your own conversation, and each ball is the best opportunity for private conversation.

This illustrates the indispensable role that the prom plays in both plot driving and character building.

The main thing is to create the nobility of the heroine, as well as the embarrassment of the male protagonist, which can leave a deep impression on the first meeting of the hero and heroine.

The first point is that the image of the whole character is very special and brings us a different sense of the times, and the second point can also make us feel that this unique plot is a very charming story through the shaping of this character, which is very shocking.

can promote the plot, and can promote the interaction and development of these people, and can also reflect some contradictions in the process of getting along with them.
