In Pride and Prejudice,Darcy’s pride and change are two quite crucial elements that help to move the plot forward.However,Darcy’s pride is more shrouded with a romantic evil that his pride has promoted the interaction between him and Elizabeth and contributed to their mutual understanding.While his change has convinced readers of the infinite power of love and affection.Darcy’s pride and change had been explained more from a romantic point of view than a realistic one.Pride and Prejudice has been considered as a realistic novel that has exposed the reality of that time by presenting the lives of the middle-class,including their daily interpersonal communication and love entanglement.This paper aims to illustrate Darcy’s pride and change from a naturalistic point of view by resorting to the basic theory of naturalism.
