- Abstract
Thackeray's novel Vanity Fair represents profoundly and vividly the society of London in the Victorian Age. The two girls in the novel, Amelia and Becky, make different value choices among love, money and marriage. This paper probes into the their difference in the value choice of love, money and marriage, reveals the underlying causes of Amelia's value choice, and further analyzes the author's implication, thus revealing the novel's deep social criticism.
