简爱经典段落 求英文原版翻译

Do you think,because I am poor,obscure,plain,and little,I am soulless and heartlessYou think wrong!-I have as much soul as you,-and full as much heart!And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth,I should have made it as hard for you to leave me,as it is now for me to leave youI am not talking to you now through the medium of custom,conventionalities,nor even of mortal flesh;-it is my spirit that addresses your spirit;just as if both had passed through the grave,and we stood at God's feet,equal,-as we are!

最经典的话：

      你以为我会无足轻重的留在这里吗？你以为我是一架没有感情的机器人吗？你以为我贫穷、低微、不美、缈小，我就没有灵魂，没有心吗？你想错了，我和你有一样多的灵魂，一样充实的心。如果上帝赐予我一点美，许多钱，我就要你难以离开我，就像我现在难以离开你一样。我现在不是以社会生活和习俗的准则和你说话，而是我的心灵同你的心灵讲话。

创作背景

作者创作《简·爱》时的英国已是世界上的头号工业大国，但英国妇女的地位并没有改变，依然处于从属、依附的地位，女子的生存目标就是要嫁入豪门，即便不能生在富贵人家，也要努力通过婚姻获得财富和地位，女性职业的惟一选择是当个好妻子、好母亲。

以作家为职业的女性会被认为是违背了正当女性气质，会受到男性的激烈攻击，从夏洛蒂姐妹的作品当初都假托男性化的笔名一事，可以想见当时的女性作家面临着怎样的困境。而《简·爱》就是在这一被动的背景下写成的。

这本小说是一部具有浓厚浪漫主义色彩的现实主义小说。《简·爱》是部脍炙人口的作品，一部带有自传色彩的长篇小说。《简·爱》中的简·爱人生追求有两个基本旋律：富有激情、幻想、反抗和坚持不懈的精神；对人间自由幸福的渴望和对更高精神境界的追求。

这本小说的主题是通过对孤女坎坷不平的人生经历，成功地塑造了一个不安于现状、不甘受辱、敢于抗争的女性形象，反映一个平凡心灵的坦诚倾诉的呼号和责难，一个小写的人成为一个大写的人的渴望。
