It has sold more than 20 million copies since it was written two centuries ago and has had generations of schoolgirls swooning over the ultimate romantic hero.

经典名著《傲慢与偏见》自两个世纪之前出版以来累计销量已超过两千万本，而其中的主人公达西先生更是俘获了万千少女的芳心。

But the great unspoken background of Jane Austen's world is that both Mr Darcy and Mr Bingley in Pride and Prejudice got rich from the slave trade, says author Joanna Trollope.

但是最近英国作家乔安娜·特罗洛普却称，在这部小说中，作者简·奥斯汀没有点明的一个背景信息其实是，主人公达西和宾利的财富都是靠贩卖奴隶获得的。

The novelist, speaking at the Festival of Literature in Dubai, dispelled the myth about Mr Darcy and Mr Bingley being the perfect men and described the 'very dark underbelly' to Austen's books.

特罗洛普在迪拜文学节上打破了好男人达西和宾利的“神话”，并讲述了奥斯汀小说中包含的一些“黑暗面”。

She said: 'Why does Mr Bingley in Pride and Prejudice have all this leisure to sort of drift between Netherfield and London?

她说：“《傲慢与偏见》中的宾利为什么能有空闲时间在内瑟菲尔德和伦敦两地之间穿梭？”

'He is a young man with means because of the slave trade. The slave trade is lightly touched upon in several of the novels but not very heavily.
