远大前程的英文读后感 远大前程的英文读后感 Dickens is not a writer disdaining women.Instead he loves,respects and takes care of them,however,in his novels,he unconsciously degrades women and puts them inferior to men.This time I want to adopt Great Expectations to evidence my thesis.Two reasons aount for this.The Victorian Age pushed women back to home and indulge in their obedience and docility.An able woman today may be sung highly as a model of independence but male dominated that period even a little bit of rebellion from female world is regarded as the despising of sacred belief.The other one lies in that Dickens,as a well-known and truly suessful writer,poses various and popular works.As a male,his achievement sounds great,which belittles the rest of his contemporaries,let alone the women.His suess made him believe in mens great ability.There are three aspects in this novel that I believe this kind of thought of Dickens is revealed.The first one is that women are fragile.“Weaker,your name is woman.”Two hundreds ago,Shakespeare authored to the world this unprecedented sentence in Hamlet.Later,Dickens followed this great instruction unconsciously in creating his own works.That is not because that women are in lack of will but that they need surviving abilities and that of self-survival and struggle against destiny.They always turn to men.That can be called“hero saving the beauty”。This notion originated in the Greek tales but is still adopted suessively.The only difference between them lies in the plot and structure.Estella is adopted and trained to break mens hearts by Miss Havisham.Havisham revenges men and marries Estella to an unworthy guy though Pip deeply loves Estella.Nothing can be bitterer than see his lover married to another guy for a man.Pip really fell into the despair of losing Estella.However,Estella suffers a lot and begins to regret for her initial choice for her spouse and begins to treasure Then es my second point.Facing destiny women are physically and intellectually inferior to men.Actually it does not mean they have an inferior intelligence but that it seems so.Or we can say that both men and women have the same potential of intelligence,but women never show a lot.God create everyone equally but not everyone is granted the same approaches to suess or achievements.They are restricted to families,which restrict them from showing a lot.They can cook food well,which is one standard for their excellence but not the one for males world.The novel goes this way since it implies the male consciousness.The ordinary intelligence of women in marriage and love is exposed pletely.Havisham is abandoned on her wedding day,but she keeps the room like the day she got married,while on the other hand she tries every means to revenge men.Bearing these two conflictive thoughts in mind,Havisham certainly fails to live her own life out of the control or influence from male though she se The discipline for women is my third point.A feminist De Bufuwa says,One is called woman because she is“made”not“born”。Culturally woman is the product of society and the result of its strict restrictions.Those women who do not obey the disciplines are not regarded as gracious or good women by social criteria,which emphasizes on families,the responsibilities for their husbands and their dependence on men.In Great Expectations,Estella and Havishams misfortunes are closely attached to love and marriage.They try to revenge men and but they cannot leave men.Estella leaves Pip but at last es back to him,and Havisham keeps thinking about her marriage day and her the other part,who should e that day,in that gloomy room though she on the other hand revenges men.So tracing the track of a decent woman is the priority for women,as revealed in Dickens novel,otherwise tribulation falls.Every period has an outstanding feature,which make descendants linger in mind.Victorian Age passed long ago,but its typical rules for women still work to some extent.To learn this novel can help us in understanding better womens efforts to stand up.Society presses public to believe in notion that male play a dominant role.Even a feminist will drop into that swirl as she sees more and thinks more.Havisham can symbolize a feminist but what then?She needs a male aompany.Her ending somewhat is tragic but Estella harvests through a long time,but anyway she wins in depending man and leading a pleasant life.The above is what I get from the novel in the textbook and to conclude my opinion in one sentence,I should say that women depend on men.That is not my opinion,but what I get.I have to mention that again since I myself am one part of that group and I am not willing to take a subordinate role in both family and society.In this summer holidays,I read a book called,it was written by Charles Dickens,one of the most famous English writers.He wrote lots of wonderful novels.This book is one of his positions.People always like to pare with their friends.It is a big foible of all the people.If other people have a lot of money,we also want to be rich.If all the people around us are poor,we never mind that we are very poor,too.we will not ashamed because of our folly.This is a social problem.If we never possess anything,we will not mind we lost some thing.Since we dont want to be very rich,we will not feel despond because poor.The protagonist of this novel is Pip（Handel）。His parents died when he was a baby.His sister had brought him up by hand。His sister married to Joe Gargery,the village blacksmith.They didnt have much money,and Pip never went to school to study.But he was often very happy.Because all of his friends are like him.It isnt very unfortunate to them,this is their lives.But by a chance,Pip helped a convict;he gave much food to him.Then he met Miss Havisham,a very strange old woman and she was very rich.Four years later,Miss Havisham wants Pip to be removed from his home and educated as a gentleman who expects inherit a fortune when he grow up.After hearing that.Pip started to despise his poor friends.He even feel ashamed because he live with the poor man.Pips great expectations destroyed his life.This novel told us that we cannot pare with others.Dont feel envy at the others money.And if one day you be very rich,please dont despise your poor friends.
