Tessofthed’Urbervilles

“Tess of the d’Urbervilles” is regarded as one of Thomas Hardy’s most famous masterpieces in the world.I was deeply impressed by the story:the poor girl girl---Tess Durbeyfields had to work for Alec d’Urbervilles in order to support her family.She was so beautiful that the so-called gentleman seduced her.And form then on,Tess’s life was doomed to be a tragedy.Later she found her true love---Angel Clare.However,when Tess told him about her misery past soon after their wedding day,the man deserted Tess instead of forgiving her becaused he learned that Tess was not as pure as he thought---she was no more a maiden.Angel went to Brazil alone and asked Tess not to write to him.Tess waited for his return,living in a sorrow.Finally,Alec found her and wanted her to be his woman by all possible means.In order to get rid of him ,Tess had no choice but to murder him.It is such a heartbroken story that I couldn’t help thinking about it for several days.Tess has a strong sense of responsbility and self respect.Her father was lazy and her mother was blind.She

was exactly the one who devoted herself to the family.I think,as a daughter ,she had done encough.She was also strongwilled and optimistic.There had been much gossip in the small village because of her prengnancy and people in the village looked down on her.However,she managed to recover from all these and decided to begain a new life at a distant dairy farm.Tess was independent and loyal to love.She refused to get money from either Alec or Angel,she made a living on her own.She worked hard.What’s more,she was honest.She confessed her sufferings to her husband even though her mother told her not to.She did nothing wrong,she was just a little child at that time.Tess wasbraveencoughto kill Alec—the man who ruined her whole life.She set a good example to the women throughout ages.And she didn’t accept the unfair fate as it was,instead she resisted the tempatation of Alec and she won over the misfortunes in some way.I admire Tess for her attitudes toward life;I also show my profound sympathy for Tess’s miserable fate;I envy Tess for she had the courage to fight against fate.

第二篇：德伯家的苔丝的英文书评

Tess----a tragedy of the times Tess Durbeyfield, a tragic character was created by Thomas Hardy who was deeply impacted by the tragic view of Arthur Schopenhauer, Greek tragic view and Shakespeare’s tragedies.He held the idea that no matter how great the human civilization developed, we can do nothing when fate wants to play tricks on us.Due to this kind of believe, all of his novels have such a character: when the hero are going to access the happiness, the adversities befall them inevitably, like the destiny has settled and make fool of people, and so does Tess Durbeyfield’s fate.In this novel, it reveals the shackle of convention explicitly, and Tess Durbeyfield was the victim of that era though she had courage to pursue the true love and rebel the decadent ideology.However, it was not enough for her to break the fetters of traditional moral standard.When she was raped, she was extremely guilty that she felt she did not pure anymore;she even dared not to go to church.However, when we consider about this, is it really her fault? Does she have to bear the catastrophe by herself? The answer is definitely no.She always in a state of auto-accusation ascribed to the traditional idea of chastity, she measured herself whether decent and pure only according the very concept, it was this that made the “humiliation” was engraved in her heart.The feudal ethnical code at Tess Durbeyfield’s time was just like the Three Cardinal Guides and the Five Constant Virtues at ancient China, which forfeited many ladies’ happiness, and became a heavy yoke upon all the people(especially women)at that time, but there were a few people to go against it.Thomas Hardy’s pessimism was the product of his period.At 1880s and 1890s, the Great Britain Empire declined, the financial crises approached, so this kind of background also play an important role in Thomas Hardy’s writing style.Maybe at the beginning of writing, in order to show the underside of the society, Thomas Hardy didn’t decide to give Tess Durbeyfield a “happily ever after” ending, even finally, Tess was together with her true love but unable to escape the nest of convention-----she was sentenced to gallows for the crime of intentional homicide.How sarcastic it was!The throne did nothing when Tess was raped by Alec D'Urberville, but it did have its effect when Tess get rid of these impediments on her way to happiness, and on the other hand, Alec deserved it for his offence.Tess Durbeyfield, she traded her life for her love.She was a victim of convention and feudal ethnics, for one aspect, she dare to seek for true love after hurting, but on the contrary, she was till trammeled by this heavy yoke.It is the very background that created such a tragedy.(11)

Comments on Tess of the D'Urbervilles

Tess of the D'Urbervilles is the most famous novel of Thomas Hardy.Focusing on the tragic experience of its heroine Tess, the plot of story begins.Tess comes from a farmer’s family, the Durbeyfields.She has lived a poor but peaceful life.However, God, “The President of the Immoral” begins to play a cruel joke on this innocent girl.One day her father, John Durbeyfied learns that they are descended from the D’Urbervilles, an ancient family once renowned in England.Tess’s parents are in an ecstasy of delight over the news.Her mother urges Tess to claim kinship with the remaining D’Urbervilles, so that Tess could marry a gentleman.Unwillingly, the girl comes in contact with the Stoke, D’Urbervilles.There she meets Alec D’Urbervilles, who shows off the estate and always seduces her.Having received a job of tending to chickens, Tess stays in the D’Urbervilles.Her tragic life has just begun.Before long the rich and guileful Alec manages to seduce the girl and make her pregnant.Being humiliated and resolute, Tess returns home.Despite the rumors all around, she gives birth to a child, who is called Sorrow but dies soon because of grave illness.For several weeks, Tess is overwhelmed by grief and sorrow.Nevertheless, without financial support, Tess has to leave home and goes to work as a dairymaid at a distant farm, where she meets Angel Claire.They have met each other before, and Tess has made a favorable impression on Angel.After Angel persistent pursuit of Tess, the two fall in love and become engaged.Then comes the wedding night, too honest to keep any secret, Tess admits about Alec D’Urbervilles and the child.She begs for forgiveness, but Angel leaves her in disgust.Tess again returns home alone, only find that her family remains impoverished and she even has no place to stay.In the meantime, Alec D’Urbervilles, the evil person appears again.He takes advantage of the Durbeyfields’ poverty and continues to tempt Tess.He promises to support her family, only as a means to make Tess dependent.At the end of hope, the girl jumps into the trap of the shameless man.However, the tragedy has not finished yet.Angel Claire, who is remorseful for his mercilessness, comes back, but to find the cruel reality.And his arrival makes Tess even more desperate.After Angel leaves, she stabs Alec in the heart and kills him.Then she follows Angel and escape with him.They manage to hide for a while in a wood before they come to Stonehenge, where she is arrested.She is hanged later.This wasn’t my first time to read “Tess of the D'Urbervilles” Actually, the first time I read the novel was in high school.At that moment, I thought that Tess was really a tragic figure in the book “Tess of the D’Urbervilles”.She was seduced by a so-called gentleman—Alec, and from then on her life totally changed from the loss of innocence.People looked down on her and respected her no more.Virtually, she did nothing wrong because before she was seduced she knew nothing of men.She was just a girl when she first met that terrible man.Nonetheless, she was forced by the gossips and the church to blame herself for this accident, so she thought she deserved nothing good.In order to get rid of the past, she decided to go to a distant dairy farm but was still saying to herself that she was wrong.Maybe God didn’t agree with that, because the Lord gave her someone she loved with her whole heart and life—Angel Chari.Unfortunately, it was still a sad ending.When I read the story again, I had different affections to the figures of this novel.Why, I meant why Tess fell so much in love with Angel and ended herself up in such misery? I could not tell any merits from Angel from the very beginning, even back to that May Dance on the lawn.Honestly, at the first glance, I concluded that he was an emotional unstable youngster who can barely bear any responsibility.He adopted dual moral standards, I bet Tess's life would be getting better, or even a happy ending with Alec or other normal but kind man without ever

Getting the chance to meet Angel.And I was more than willing to adapt this sentence “If we had danced that day, how happy we might have be” to “ If we have hadn't met on that day, how happy I might have be”.Poor Tess, you got the wrong way!Obviously, Angel was a devil, but this can still make no difference to Tess if she chose to keep that secret what she had already sworn to her mum, an incapable but intelligent mother who always cared for Tess.That's to say, Tess's purity should be blamed, at least partly, for her own tragedy, devil needs counterparts not a real angel to match with each other.In the meantime, Tess is a perfectionist, she can't stand any flaws lying between Angel and herself, yes, and her pursuit of perfect love without any reserve from that man she deeply loves predicts her destiny.Poor Tess, there is never ever perfect love like you imagined in the real world, why not let go of the past and move on? I can't help feeling badly sad for her, she shall know the principle of equity can't be translated into reality, particularly a world ruled by men back then, which is almost the case nowadays.Overall, I emphasize that Tess’s purity, perfectionism, principle of equity, and poignancy ended herself up in hanging.Anyway, it's just a fictive novel, but there must be something in common which is applicable even today.

第四篇：苔丝

遗忘，是来自自由的回忆

——论苔丝

总会有些过去会让人落一生泪水，总会有些故事暗示七千哀伤。念念不忘。

那么倾向于把《苔丝》看作关于过去的故事，关于回忆，以及一个女子的生命中，两个男子交错奏鸣的交响。

德伯家的、苔丝。从德伯维尔这个古老的姓氏中我们就可以感知些什么，一个故事的开始，只需要因为一个失落的姓氏，一段被人遗忘的往事。而整场悲剧，也从查尔斯时代就生发开来，于是整个家族的悲哀如五月里的雏菊，轻展腰身，回忆，渐次苏醒。

苔丝的悲剧，在我们看来，是一种必然，是因为当时的社会环境，当然，苔丝其本身也存在着诸多缺陷，在与“黑桃皇后”争吵后，出于愤怒以及报复的快感，不计后果地跟随亚雷离开，从而引起悲剧的发生，我们可以看到她莽撞的一面。而在苔丝的清白被毁后，社会环境又对其继续碾压，撇开这些我们暂且不论，如果当时苔丝没有跟随亚雷，是不是在以后与亚雷相处的日子里，就一定可以保证悲剧不会发生呢？抑或，当悲剧发生之后，即便是在现今的社会，对于苔丝那样失去清白的女子，我们可以保证不带任何的不屑与鄙视？那么，我们又如何奢望在当时，人们可以用毫无偏见的眼光去看待苔丝？

如果当时那位牧师没有告诉苔丝的父亲他们家族的过去；如果当时苔丝没有接受亚雷的邀请而去他家中认亲；如果当时苔丝没有杀死亚雷，又或者，苔丝在杀死亚雷后就积极逃亡。那么，结局会不会比现在更好，我们，不得而知。

这样的悲剧，个人的命运在时代洪流的裹挟中滚滚而下，我们叫它历史的必然，苔丝说它是天意，只是这天意究竟在哪里，那些“如果当时”假设的前提与结局，谁比谁更适合，谁比谁更好，冥冥中我们永远无法比较，无从知晓。

那时候，苔丝哭着说，我什么都不知道，我还只是个孩子啊。

是的，她毕竟只是一个孩子，太沉重的过去，整个家族的命运，她承担不起。

而安琪儿，那个谐音是天使的男子，在开幕的那场乡村舞会，他来到苔丝的身边，邀请的却是另一个舞伴。也许，从故事的一开始，就与他要守护的苔丝擦肩而过；也许，从故事的一开始，苔丝就被她的安琪儿，她的天使所遗弃，尽管，尽管在离开时，安琪儿那么惆怅，可在以后的淡忘里，苔丝，也只是出现在他生命里的一场无关紧要。

而在后来，安琪儿求婚时，苔丝曾那么多次想要说出她的过去，可每一次都被安琪儿阻止。其实，安琪儿只是活在他自己的幻境里，他用自己的幻想创造出一个至纯至美的女子，然后强加到苔丝身上，对于苔丝，她终究只是安琪儿的一种寄托，其实，他爱的是另一个女子，是附在苔丝身上的那个金碧辉煌的幻象。

我所不能确定的只是，这个幻象，究竟是只有依附苔丝才能存在，或者，苔丝，只是一场随遇而安。

故事里弥漫的那种似是而非的眷恋与爱情，对于苔丝来说，她不能当真，也不能不当真。在心死去那么久之后，她曾奢望一场不离不弃，可是在这样突如其来的爱情中，她的过去，仍旧如早已埋在心底的种子，突然开出凄艳的花，让人防不胜防的哀伤。

回忆，是相会的一种形式； 忘记，是自由的一种形式。

如果说苔丝当时对她的新姓氏置之不理，对她被折辱的过去不再那么耿耿于怀，或者，安琪儿对于苔丝的过去不生出那样一种绝望来，他们，终究会是幸福的一对。

说到底，他们都是纠缠在过去与回忆的孩子。

除了亚雷，故事里的每个人，他们都是普普通通，他们只是做着人之常情所做的事情，苔丝父母小小的虚荣，对于生活改善的要求；苔丝的情绪化；安琪儿在对于苔丝美好的梦境被打碎后的绝望。拆开来看，也许我们做的不会比他们之间的任何一个人好。可是，当所有的瑕疵被拼凑，一场可怕的悲剧就此形成。

苔丝，或者安琪儿，除了亚雷，奶牛场的玛丽安，依茨，无论故事里的谁，我们都不能苛责太多，世事纷繁，人心慌乱，每个人都想从身边获取一点温暖。只是苔丝不知，她的三千柔情，苔丝只能取一瓢饮。太多，他承载不起。

只是，过去那么多，她，那么善良。只是，记得。要忘记。

回忆，还是回忆，苔丝只有在回忆里才能自由地取暖，可她的回忆，也是充斥着凄凉。她的回忆，她的过去，盛开遗忘的身旁。

只是，德伯维尔，一个姓氏里，为什么，有她一生的哀伤？

第五篇：苔丝

《苔丝》读后感

《苔丝》写的就是社会如何把一纯洁、质朴、正直、刻苦、聪明、美丽的农村姑娘逼得走投无路，终于杀人的故事。她以不同的艺术形象成就了一个悲剧，老长老长的故事也因为这个悲剧的成功成为了很老很老的人们心中的疼痛。它的情节用现在的观点看似乎有点老套，但却深刻反映了古老的宗法制农村在资本主义势力侵蚀下瓦解的悲剧。苔丝的失贞主要是亚雷．德伯的责任，她第二次落入亚雷．德伯之手是她的父母、安机．克莱和亚雷．德伯共同的责任，而她终于杀死亚雷．德伯则是一位受尽欺凌的弱者的最后反抗。在苔丝身上，我们自始至终看到的是她纯洁本性对逼迫她的力量的苦苦挣扎。

如果说卡门的美在于野性叛逆，简爱的美在于倔强顽强，那么苔丝的美一定在于纯净自然，她是大自然的女儿。她的纯洁就像蓝天一样，虽然偶而会被乌云遮住，可是当乌云散去，世界上最纯净透明的依然是蓝天。

作为女人，她有迷人的外表。漂亮的脸蛋，和恰到好处的身材。哈代给这个美人加了点色，那就是着重去写了她的唇，她唇上的曲线。说那是任何男人都会为之神魂颠倒。红丽娇艳，如花沾露的唇，本身就是情种，再加之细致分明，乖巧柔美的线条，在顾盼流转间，不动人也难。

苔丝是坚强的，乐观的，她的命运却不可逆转。即使再多给苔丝几次选择，我相信她最终仍然会走老路，除非安玑克莱没有抛弃她远走他乡。关于社会的悲剧，家庭的悲剧，人性的悲剧已有很多定论，令我感到叹息的只有苔丝和克莱的爱情悲剧。两个人吃尽了苦头，绕了一大圈又回到了原点，只是物是人非，苔丝选择了死亡来成全他们美好的爱情。终究到底是一场空。对于苔丝来说，她承受的苦难远大于克莱，她内心的彷徨无助克莱永远体会不到，如若不是苔丝的善良痴心，不计一切的去爱克莱，他们早已成为陌路人了。受尽苦难的苔丝实际什么都没有得到，受尽了侮辱，却只想到要成全克莱的高尚纯洁，最后只能把克莱拜托给自己的妹妹。在这场爱情当中，克莱是完全的操控着，最后的大赢家，苔丝是完全的牺牲者，纯粹的奉献自我至死方休。克莱表现出来的虽然看上去是维护心中那份对爱情的信念，实际暴露出来的是那份冷酷与自私！他爱的仅仅是自己虚构的一个形象，并非活生生的苔丝。如果不是在异国他乡遭受病痛的折磨事业的失败我相信他不会还记得有个苔丝在泥沼里苦等着他前去营救。

虽然后来克莱尔意识到自己的偏见和狭隘，他的心仿佛看见天上有一颗名叫“苔丝”的星星对他说：“亲爱的，现在你原谅我了么？”

很美的感觉。但是，这终究是一个悲剧，仿佛许多的爱情都是如此。为什么不可以抗拒，抗拒那虚伪的道德！离别......，等待......，彷徨......，后悔......虽然苔丝和克莱尔最后度过了五天美好的时光，可是，为爱复仇的苔丝结局依然悲惨。

爱是伟大的，是无私的。如果你深爱一个人，就应该接受她的过去，因为过去也是她的一部分，是她心灵的一部分。如果你不能接受她的过去，就永远无法走进她的内心，她那颗深爱你的心。情到深处是理解，爱到深处是包容，因为爱，可以让我们的心像蓝天大海一样宽广，一样无私。因为爱的温度能溶化一切。因为，爱是我们生活在这个世界上唯一的理由。
