摘要簡愛是19世紀的一部小說，它講述了簡愛的生活經(jīng)歷以及與羅切斯特的愛情故事，我們都為之動容。同時我們從小說中學到了好多，例如對生活的積極態(tài)度以及簡愛的所表現(xiàn)的高尚的品質。總而言之，這部小說成功建立了新女性形象，一種追求自由和平等的形象，追求女性獨立，為追求真愛為努力。在現(xiàn)代社會人們的婚姻觀發(fā)生了巨大的變化，有人不再相信永久的愛，而追求短暫的快樂。所以本文的目的在于闡明簡愛的婚姻對未婚者和已婚者的啟示。簡愛的故事教會了我盡管女主人公并不漂亮，她仍然得到自己的真愛。她的人格魅力，勇于追求自由和平等，相互理解和尊重。只有對別人尊重，信任別人，這樣才能找到真愛，特別是對現(xiàn)代社會的人。關鍵詞：簡愛；獨立；平等；尊重；信任ContentAbstract
