The importance of women’ s independent consciousness in Austen’ s view of marriage has been stressed. Song Jian-hua puts forward in Feminism in Pride and Prejudice that the most essential thing Austin reveals by in her view of marriage is the female consciousness, which includes the awakening and the insight of female consciousness, the dependence of women’ s marriage consciousness, reflecting on the social reality, and the lack of morality in emotional consciousness (2001) . He Chao-yang, in Jane Austen' s Feminine Point of View, holds that through the image of Elinor in Sense and Sensibility, Austen shows that to gain an ideal marriage, women should be independent, which means that the female must have the ability of recognizing themselves, and be capable of thinking independently, handling stuffs on their own decision (2001) . In 2002, in The Feminine Consciousness That Reflected in Pride and Prejudice, Huang Jing holds that Austen believes that women could be as intellectual and rational men and in her writings, some outstanding women have more keen observation and judgment than men in their surroundings. Huang thinks in Austen’ s view, women don't take obedience as one of the virtue but yearn for a happy marriage on the basis of mutual respect and understanding.
