In the 19th century, the British novel Pride and Prejudice and Jane Eyre came out successively, which changed the traditional male-centered creative mode and highlighted the distinct feminist characteristics. However, owing to the limitation of the background of the British society at that time, the writers subconsciously became the caterers of the patriarchal society and, to a certain extent, wore the shackles of the patriarchal society unconsciously. In view of this phenomenon, this paper probes into the dilemma faced by female writers in breaking through the siege from three aspects: the patriarchal cultural imprint of the novel, the view of marriage and love from the perspective of male chauvinism and the popularity of the novel's ending.
