2022年苔丝,英文读后感 篇一：苔丝英文观后感 Tess of the DUrbervilles Poor Tess, she was survived because of love, and was also destroyed because of love. Tess was a very beautiful girl. Her beauty and elegance was prominent under her white appearance and clear soul. Yes! I wanted to say that she was so white and pure, and this white could not be profaned by dirt; she was very white, brilliant and amazing, and this white could change this world into happiness; she was pretty white, delicate and charming, and this white could even make flowers feel shy! To my surprise, I really liked the repeated played music in this film. The music was so wonderful, and could let us feel a deep touch of sadness. Although the plots of the story was romantic, I still smelt the sorrow, which controlled by fate. The plots and the pictures were seamlessly matched up, the audio and video with the fate of the duet, also painted Tess a fatalistic color. Generally speaking , the main melody, the background music and the blending melody were interspersed in this story, and run with a touch of sadness, loneliness, continuous weak and helplessness, indicated that the dark fate. The novel told a pure, loyal, intelligent, strikingly attractive girl; Tess was seduced by a so-called gentleman-Alec. Unfortunately, her ideals could not prevent her from sliding further and further into misfortune after she became pregnant. Forced by the gossips and the churchs blame, Tess thought she deserved nothing good. In order to get rid of the past, she decided to go to a distant diary farm but still thought she was of guilty. Maybe God didnt approve of this, because the Lord gave her someone she loved with her whole heart-Angel Chare. They loved each other deeply. Somehow, Tess agreed to marry Angel. Soon after their wedding Angel confessed the crime he committed to a woman long time ago and asked for Tesss forgiveness. Tess was not at all angry and forgave Angel at once; in fact she was rather happy and excited for she also had things to confess. She sat and told her past to Angel, and hoping to be forgiven. But she was wrong and Angel didnt listen to her explanation at all. Without Angels love, nothing meant anything to her. Alec found Tess again and forced her to stay with him. At last, Tess couldnt bear it and killed Alec. Everything was changed. Tess was arrested for her murder eventually. And this story was ended with the death of Tess. In the novel, it reflected the Patriarchal. And Tesss father is one of representatives of male parents of the patriarchal society, who dominate the whole family. Thus sent Tess to DUrbervilles mansion and marry a wealthy man. Alec and Angel are also endowed with the male chauvinism, which made them hurt Tess physically and mentally. According to Tess, she was a rebelled girl. Firstly, she would not succumb to social pressures. The contest between corruption and innocence took place not only in a field, but also in the humans heart. In Tesss life, there were two men-Alec and Angel. Both of them had a great influence to change her fate. Facing Alecs force, Tess attempts to rebel him. And after the seducing, Tess decided to leave Alec and work for a distant diary farm. She used her action to prove her rebellion to the world. Secondly, Tess killed Alec at last. This thing showed her rebellion again. In the latter part, as Angle returned with renewed loyalty and love for Tess, it became apparent that Alecs trick had considerably broken down Tesss loyalty to Angle. Torn apart, her shame and grief caused her violent side to explode; Tess killed her lover in a murderous rage out of love for her husband. In a word, Alec of the representatives of the bourgeoisie, he had a bourgeois state apparatus, law, and ethics, as a backup. While Tess and his contradictions, it could also be said that the workers were oppressed and the specific performance of the entire capitalist social contradictions. At the same time, she was coward. This character was also showed on two aspects. First, her loves for Angel. As a typical nineteenth century progressive representative, Angel rejected the values handed to him, and set off in search of his own. His disdain for tradition which was an independent spirit contributes to his aura of charisma and general attractiveness. However, it must be pointed out was that he had not really jump out of his area against the old moral values, he had not really despised from the class prejudices, he was still upholding the decadent bourgeois social customs and moral hypocrisy. Second, her second stay with Alec also presents her cowardice. Tesss situation made her very vulnerable to Alecs persuasions. And she was obviously heartbroken and needed to be loved more than ever. She was also distraught by her familys ever-worsening financial situation. Thus she became Alecs mistress for the sake of her family. When she felt the opinions of all the sacrifices was so insignificant, as all acts of levity, finally decided to angrily rebel. Of course, Tess once expressed her plainness angrily by the last letter to Angel under a completely disappointed condition. Tesss soul was pure and her virtue was lofty, but in the face of bourgeois morality, she was regarded as the typical offend public decency, serve to the lascivious example. Tess was such a strong and beautiful girl, she did nothing wrong, but in the face of power and violence, and she had been to forbear. Finally she rebelled and she paid the cost of life. Tesss life was ruined by the two men; I thought Angel should be responsible mainly. Sometimes happiness was really completely in our hands, it was easy to get happiness if we forgave other people. If the thoughts were radical and stubborn, it would not only harm ourselves, but also destructed our happiness. Angel had been haunting because of the deep psychological ingrained traditional ideas of ethics; it personally ruined the happiness of Tesss life. Just imagined, if Angel was open-minded and forgave the past of Tess, the tragic story would not happen, and Tess did not become a murderer. Angels heart was bound by a secular moral values, and what angry was that Angel had the same past as Tesss, but he could not forgive Tess as Tess forgave him, which not only showed the gender injustice, but also reflected the social patriarchal thought at that time. I was so touched by her story after read all above these words. In order to get her love Tess paid the most expensive price of her, and she preferred to do in that way. What the love really it is, it is worthy someone to afford their lives for it? I do not know, and I also think many people will have no certain idea about it. But they will certified their love in their own ways, and whatever they might are. They deserved respected always, I think. 篇二：Tess的英文 苔丝 文 法 分 院 读书报 告 题 目：Tess of the DUrbervilles 班 级: 10商务英本一 姓 名: 戴妲莉 学 号:10203023218 书 名:Tess of the DUrbervilles 作 者: 总 页 码： 出 版 社：出版时间： 版次，印数 Title Abstract： Tess of the Durbervilles is one of Thomas Hardy Wessex series , written in 1891. Word has it that it is a great tragedy about a poor girl. In my opinion everything happening has its own causes. The tragic love story narrates leading lady Tess asked her fake kin Alec who is fairly rich in the native areas for help. The dudish man Alec deprived Tess of her virginity . Personally speaking , that is the deep root of tragedy. Key words Tess tragedy and the love attitudes in Tess of the dUrbervilles The reason I read it As a English mayor , I prefer watching foreign films. Occasionally , I encountered a film named Tess of the dUrbervilles. The gorgeous plot and characters impelled me to read the famous essay. Title 1. Brief Introduction of Thomas Hardy Thomas Hardy was a famous British novelist and poet. He carried forward and developed the literary traditions of the Victorian Age. He described the tragic plots vividly and truthfully in his works. He was considered as “Shakespeare of British novels”. Hardy was born in an architects family and was expected to become an architect. He trained as an architect and worked in London and Dorset for ten years. Hardy began his writing career as a novelist in 1871 publishing Desperate Remedies. He was soon successful and left architecture for writing. Hardy was pessimistic about life. The main theme of his novels is the futility of mans effort to struggle against cruel and unintelligible fate, chance, and circumstances, which are all predestined by the immanent will. He bravely challenged many of the sexual and religious conventions of the Victorian Age. He exposed the hypocritical morals, laws and peoples miserable life, especially the womens life in social economic, politics, morals, custom, etc. after the invasion of industrial capital to the British villages. He described people of different social classes. He was good at viewing life with “a tragic light”. 2. Plot The story is about the tragic life of Tess Durbeyfield, the daughter of a poor family. She is sent to work as a maid for dUrbervilles, because she has to support her poor family. Tess is seduced by Alec, the son of the family which she serves for, and then gives birth to a child. However, the child dies in infancy, which makes her very depressed. After that, she goes to work on a dairy farm, and then she is engaged to Angel Clare, the son of a clergyman. On their wedding night, they tell each other about their past hoping to be forgiven by each other. However, Clare leaves her after that because he cant accept the truth. Then Tess becomes a labor again. She is insulted and ill-treated by her master. Whats worse, her fathers death and the bad condition of her family drive her to seek help from Alec who is a preacher now, and she can do nothing but to abbey him. Angel Clare comes back and wants to be reconciled to Tess, but the fact that Tess living with Alec hinders her from coming back to Clare. At last, Tess kills Alec in despair and she is soon arrested, tried and hanged. 3. Character Analysis Tess -the leading lady Intelligent, strikingly attractive, and distinguished by her deep moral sensitivity and passionate intensity, Tess is indisputably the central character of the novel that bears her name. But she is also more than a distinctive individual. Hardy have ever said that her eyes are “neither black nor blue nor grey nor violet; rather all these shades together,” like “an almost standard woman.” In my part, Tess represents the changing lady of the agricultural workers in England in the late nineteenth century. Also Tess is a symbol of unclear and unstable notions of class in nineteenth-century Britain, where old family lines retained their earlier glamour, but where cold economic realities made sheer wealth more important than inner nobility. Beyond her social symbolism, Tess represents fallen humanity in a religious sense, as the frequent biblical allusions in the novel remind us. Just as Tesss clan was once glorious and powerful but is now sadly diminished, so too did the early glory of the first humans, Adam and Eve, fade with their expulsion from Eden, making humans sad shadows of what they once were. Tess thus represents what is known in Christian theology as original sin, the degraded state in which all humans live, even whenlike Tess herself after killing Prince or succumbing to Alecthey are not wholly or directly responsible for the sins for which they are punished. This torment represents the most universal side of Tess: she is the myth of the human who suffers for crimes that are not her own and lives a life more degraded than she deserves. Alec Alec is a representative of the bourgeois societys authority, the wealth and the evil. He has an aristocrat dUrbervilles surname, a large amount of money and a great power which dominate the local people. He takes advantage of Tess poor family condition, and tempts her with money to go to his family as a servant. He always forces Tess to do something she is not willing to do. For example, when in the cart, Tess wants him to slow down, but he says that he will not do unless Tess let him “put one little kiss on those holmberry lips” . That is a total insult to Tess. Then he seduces Tess, destroying her chastity which means all her life. At the end of the story, when Tess father dies, and her family is homeless, Alec “helps” her again. He tells Tess that her family can move to his cottage, and “the children can go to school” . In fact, he just wants to possess Tess. He is full of violence and plots. He says that he is Tess “friend”, but he is unlikely to treat Tess as his real friend because they belong to different social class and they have totally different status and life experiences. Angel Angel is a representative of the traditional moral concepts. At that time, the whole society is full of those ridiculous traditional moral concepts. At first, Angel considers Tess as the fresh and virginal daughter of nature” , but when he knows the history of Tess, he abandons her. He says “forgiveness does not apply to the case. You were one person; now you are another” . It shows the traditional moral concepts are still deep-rooted in his mind. Angel is born in a pastor family, but he refuses to go to college and to be a pastor “serves for God”. On the contrary, he chooses to work on a farm and “serves for the humanity”. It seems that he is a person who has already run away from all traditional concepts. He falls in love with Tess, a dairy woman, and he doesnt care whether she is born in a good family or not. It seems that his love to Tess is true love. However, when it comes to marriage, he still considers Tess social status. He wants Tess to take “mistress Teresa dUrbervilles as her name and he claims that the change “may take an appreciable difference to acceptance of you as my wife”. “After I have made you the well-read woman that I mean to make you” his mother will think much better of her. This means he holds the same idea as his mother to some extent. 4. comment: Firstly I want to say that Tess tragedy comes from her helpless and pessimistic characters. As I know, the Durbeyfields were born with downfallen clan. I even called back to mind the dialogue from Tess of the Durbervilles: “Tess, are stars either good or bad? “Yes. I think each star represents a family. ” “Is our star bad?” “I think so.” From the above dialogue I got that Tess is pessimistic about her life and reality, which press her to ask Alec for help and laid the seed of her tragedy .She becomes Alecs victim in the forest. She p
