苔丝英文读后感 第1篇

Why was Tess’s girlish purity lost? Why did such a beautiful, noble and pure woman as Tess should suffer inevitable ruin? Why does the wrong man take the wrong woman? Why it is always the woman who pays? Why they are always hurt? Why is beauty damaged by ugliness? Why the tragedy is happened more than one hundred years ago repeated in modern times? Is everything too late?

Recently I’ve read the British famous writer Thomas Hardy’s masterpiece-Tess of the D’urbervilles. It describes the misfortune of a poor peasant girl Tess. In this novel, we can see Tess resist her unjust fate again and again, till to be ruined. With the development of the plot we find that her tragedy is inevitable. We can not but feel the intense emotions of pity and fear.

The cause of Tess’s tragedy has always been the concern of people, such a beautiful, noble and pure woman as Tess should suffer inevitable ruin. What leads to her tragic destiny? Who killed her? I can’t do very well in analysis the novel. I don’t know clearly how the time she lived in affect her life. I do have an understanding of the novel by myself. Alec and Angel who are the two people very closely related to Tess’s fate. I think fierce Alec played a very important role in killing Tess, but in fact, it was hypocritical Angel who killed Tess indirectly but more cruelly.

I wanted to cry, Tess, do not follow him when I read that plot. I hope she met her true love before she was seduced, but everything was too late. She was seduced by a so called gentleman-Alec, and from then on her life totally changed from this loss of innocence. People looked down on her and respect her no more. Actually she did nothing wrong because before she was seduced she knew nothing of man. Women were too weak. Tess was poor, weak and helpless and met the wrong person at the wrong time.

I strongly believed that it was Angel who killed Tess cruelly and without mercy. Angel was a liberal bourgeoisie. He made himself lived in the countryside rather than serving the god. Angel was a man who questioned the church’s teaching. He thought the church’s views were too strict and did not allow free thinking. Angel extricated him from religion and his family, but he couldn’t break with traditional moral principles. He wanted a wife who was the daughter of nature, honest, sensitive, intelligent, graceful, pure as snow and extremely beautiful. In the first part I thought Angel loved tess very much. In the following part I found that he loved an image he imagined. After their wedding Angel confessed the crime he committed to a woman long time ago and asked Tess’s forgiveness. Tess was not at all angry and forgave angel at once. She innocently thought that the thing she was going to confess would be forgiven. Poor Tess! She sat and told everything to angel, hoping he would forgive her as he was forgiven, but she was wrong. The woman pays.

Angel claimed that you were one person, now you are another when tess asked why. The woman Angel had loved was not tess, was another woman in tess’s shape. Angel loved the person he imagined. He considered tess the daughter of nature. Compared to tess’s words, “ I thought angel, that you loved me-me my very self! If you do love me, how can you treat me like this? It frightened me! Having begun to love you, I will love you forever, in all changes, in all troubles, because you are yourself. I ask no more.” we know how deep tess loved angel. She would have laid down life for angel. She not only loved the merits but also accept the demerits. We know from the book that when angel came back from Brazil, he could hardly be recognized by his mother because the cruel climate and hard work had aged him by twenty years, but tess accepted angel immediately, because he was the man she fell in love with.

I don’t know why angel couldn’t forgive tess since he himself had done the similar thing.

苔丝英文读后感 第3篇

Tess is a tragic figure. Who should be responsible for this tragedy? I'm afraid many readers will think that the culprit is the villain master Alec. In my opinion, although Alec is the cause of the tragedy, Tess's nominal husband Claire is also the cause of the tragedy. Alec only stripped Tess of her virginity in a naked way, which opened the prelude to the tragedy physically; Clare abandoned Tess on the wedding night, which led to the development of the tragedy in spirit, and finally brought the tragedy to an end. If Clare did not abandon Tess and wear that false moral veil, there would be no development and outcome of this tragedy.

The plot of the story is not complicated: Tess, a simple and beautiful old rural woman, came to the noble d'Urberville's house to work as a maid. She was cheated into pregnancy by the villain's young master Alec, and was ridiculed and accused by her neighbors. From then on, she fell into the abyss of pain. Later, Tess met Claire, who was born into a wealthy pastor family, and they really loved each other. On the wedding night, Tess told Claire her past tragic experience, but what she didn't expect was Claire's ruthless departure. Tess suffered all kinds of unimaginable hardships, but she did not get Clare's forgiveness and any news. Forced by the poor life, Tess in despair falls into Alec's hands again. After that, Claire, who was disillusioned, found Tess again, and Tess was unable to reach back. In order to live with her beloved Claire, Tess killed Alec, who had destroyed her life. A few days later Tess was arrested and sentenced to hanging for murder. Claire followed Tess's will and started a new life with her sister Lisa.

In the novel, Hardy portrayed Tess, a kind and beautiful girl, with vivid strokes and deep feelings: just like _a fresh and pure daughter of nature_, _showing a noble dignity in both temperament and appearance, just like a queen_, _her body is full of poetry, every move is poetry, and the poetry that the poet only writes on paper is vividly shown_. Although Tess was a woman who lost her virginity and even became a murderer, the author boldly abandoned the secular concept and praised her as _a pure woman_, _far more fresh than other virgins_.

The Woman Pays

TESS is really a tragic figure in the book TESS of the d’Urberwilles.

She was seduced by a so-called gentleman—Alec, and from then on her life totally changed from this loss of innocence. People looked down on her and respected her no more. Actually 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.

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 Chare. Angel popped the question to her but she refused him without saying why. She said she loved him deeply and perhaps no one in the world could love him more than she did but she could not marry him for some unspoken reason. Angel wasn’t satisfied with this vague answer and did his best to win Tess. Somehow she agreed and they soon fixed the wedding day. Soon after their wedding Angel confessed the crime he committed to a woman long time ago and asked for Tess’s 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 everything to Angel, hoping he would forgive her as he was forgiven but she was wrong. She was not forgiven, not as she thought she was. The woman pays.

Without Angel’s love, nothing meant anything to her. The result wasn’t important now. Tess was arrested for her murder of that so-called gentleman. Why? She still loved Angel and when he finally went back to her and asked for HER forgiveness, after he regretted what he had done unfair to Tess, she was desperate. That was too late—Alec had always told Tess that Angel would never come back so he won Tess’s trust. Unluckily Angel did come back and found Tess.! Everything was too late!

Tess was deceived and she lost Angel for the second time! The strengh of her love was so strong that she had forgotten the difference between right and wrong. Before that she had done nothing wrong but when she killed Alec, everything really changed! She became a criminal! How could it be? She was as pure and innocent as the good wife in the Bible. Her whole character was honest and faithful. Angel figured out at last that a person should be judged not only on what he has done but also on what he wanted to do!

Tess didn’t want to be seduced by man and she had no power to defend herself so she lost her innocence and that’s all! Angel also did the wrong thing and it was even more serious than Tess’s crime but HE was not blamed for it. Why it is always the woman who pays? Why they are always hurt? Why was Tess’s girlish purity lost? Why does the wrong man take the wrong woman? Why do the bad often ruin the good? Why is beauty damaged by ugliness? Women are too weak! Thousands of years of history have shown us that women have always been treated unfairly!

In old China there was a culture, which didn’t think of women as human beings. If you asked one if he was the oldest in his family, he would probably answer “the oldest one” even if he had some elder sisters. If you asked why then he would say, “Ha, they are not included!”

People gave birth to many girls in order to have only one boy to keep the family name going. They thought girls had no use for the family. They would be married and go to live with their husbands’ home and be their wives some day sooner or later. So they were extremely hard on girls.

Girls should be hard working, faithful, loyal, intelligent, and virtuous and the most important thing was she must be a maiden! If her husband was the first man who touched her then she was a good girl, a good wife no matter how she thought. If she wasn’t, then she would gain a very bad reputation and nobody would dare to go near her. What about men? People did not care whether he was an experienced man or not, nor did they care about his character. They thought man equals power and power equals rights…

Now let’s not be so bitter. Nowadays women’s situations have become much better. Some are because of the change of society and some are because of civilization. Just let those poor painful women like TESS be just a memory.

The comment

This is a dolorous book.

This is a story of love.

Tess, the poor girl as innocent as the sleeping birds in the trees, or the small field animals in the hedges, her life destroyed by her relatives, lover and some other people. They say they love her, but they like themselves most. Her parents want her married Alec only because they want her doing some good for the family. Alec wants to possess her, because she is the most beautiful girl in the village. He makes her pregnant but can’t give her his love. Angle is tess’s true love, but his love also not consummate, he can’t forgive tess’s mistake, although he had did wrong with a women.

Why only the women had to pay? I thought of this problem for a long time. In the 19th England, women had not status, they live very hard because people’s prejudice. Tess is the victim under the not fair environment, she lives with force, and even the law thinks the insults are allowable! At the end of the book, Fortune's wheel bereaves the last thing she had—her life.

How to vindicate the women’s right? Expect change the people’s prejudice women must learn to be adamancy and independent. We must know how to take care of ourselves. We must have the ability to feed ourselves, so that we can win the independent of personality and life. And so that we can have a pure au pair love.

The word “woman” doesn’t means “puny”!

苔丝英文读后感 第8篇

The book, Tess of the d_ Urbervilles, is a tragic of a pure and poor girl. When I put down this book, I was in tears. I just wanted to ask, Angel, why did you treat her like this?

I could imagine such a terrible night when Tess lost her way in a dark and silent wood. The What she faced was a b man and she hadn_ t known how dangerous the man could be. She was so weak that she was unable to resist him. No one could come up in time to help her. Eventually, beauty was damaged by ugliness. Why did the wrong man take the wrong woman? Angel, it was the time you saved her but where were you at that time? The Maybe as the old saying said It was to be. The Then it was the start of Tess’s tragic.

The social rule made her feel guilty and want to die. Unfortunately, her father just thought that she brought shame upon his noble name. No one could comfort her broken heart except herself. She kept all the people out her house and stayed alone and wanted to do heavy things to forget her past. The I was very happy to see that she knew such a thing shouldn’t prevent her from living an useful life. It was previous for her to have the courage to continue her life.

When Tess fell in love with Angel, the she tried to hide her love because she thought she hadn_ t had the right to get true love. But Angel, the man who loved her deeply, conquered her. However, when Tess told him her dismal past with great care, he couldn’t understand her and at last, he left her. So poor was Tess that when she wanted to be understood and forgave , she was pushed to abysm by the person she loved deeply .It was like adding more salt to the hurts of a broken heart. She was pious to everything about Angel. she could remember every sentence he said, and she learned to sing the songs he was fond of. Even when she was hurt by him, she didn’t hate him. When Angel was walking in sleep, she could choose to fall into the river to die with him but she didn’t do that because she knew she had no right to take his life. You can image how kind a girl she was.

Her love was great, unselfish and pure .The real purity came from her mind, not her appearance .Even if she was a ordinary and plain girl ,I thought Angel would love her as well. When Angel was reminded that Tess would have laid down her life for you，he suddenly realized his prejudice and narrowness .But it was too late. Tess was already in deep desperation and became Alec’s wife. When she realized she was cheated by Alec again, she was full of anger. She came to the end of her endurance so she killed Alec d’Urberville, the person who damaged her happiness for life.

They spent the last five day together .It was the most previous period during their life because Tess was going to be sentenced to death several days later. If Angel were brave enough to accept Tess’s past, they would live a happy life now. But he didn’t cherish Tess’s true love until he lost it forever. It was already useless for him to regret. Late, too late!

If you love a person deeply,then to accept his or her past, or you ’ll lose your true love for life. That’s the experience I learnt from the book.

苔丝英文读后感 第9篇

Tess of the D'Urbervilles is known as the treasure of English literature and world literature. It was published at the end of the 19th century. The author is a great British critical realist writer. _A melancholy image stands at the junction of the Victorian era and the new era_, Thomas Hardy.

Tess is a story about how the society forced a pure, simple, honest, hardworking, intelligent and beautiful rural girl into despair and finally killed her. She has created a tragedy with different artistic images, and the story of the elder has become a pain in the hearts of many very old people because of the success of this tragedy.

Tess has pure and natural beauty. She is the daughter of nature. Her purity is like the blue sky. Although it is occasionally covered by dark clouds, when the dark clouds disappear, the most pure and transparent sky in the world is still blue.

Tess is also strong and optimistic, but her life is irreversible. Even if Tess is given several more choices, I believe she will eventually choose the old way, unless Angela does not abandon her.

Tess's experience reflects the reality of many societies. Perhaps every reader can read the profound implication. However, in the contemporary life, I think we should all learn Tess's attitude of keeping her heart pure and facing all difficulties positively. Even though she was desperate, she finally died in love.

When she was ruthlessly defiled by Yalei, she resolutely chose to give up the quality of life provided by Yalei and return to her poor home. From this, it can be seen that she sticks to her inner purity.

When she knew that she had a child from Yalei, she still insisted on giving birth to that little life. This is a kind of greatness derived from maternity. She only loves her children, which is a kind of deep love without regrets. At that time, as an unmarried mother, she was undoubtedly great.

Love comes from the deepest heart. This is a kind woman. This book, this person, this matter, we need to personally understand. The above is just my humble opinion.

This book is a merciless flogging of ugly men. Durbeyfield, Tess's father, was an incompetent person who put himself into a fantasy with alcohol. He dreamed that God would drop the rain of happiness on his head. He would never think about or understand the meaning of human existence; Derby, a shameless and despicable rascal, can be said that he directed Tess's tragedy. Everything he did to Tess was to satisfy his own dirty physical desire. Tess killed him, but he killed Tess; An Ji, a dignified and narrow-minded villain, is arrogant, but never dare to face his hypocritical soul. In Tess's tragedy, he is a true accomplice. In this book, he is probably the most humble hero; Poor Mr. Clay, his helpless Taoism never saved any soul, even his three sons

I do not know the British society at that time, so I have no right to comment on how the social system affected the fate of the lower class people, but I still saw the social customs at that time from the novel. Beautiful, kind-hearted, hard-working and strong Tess did not succumb to the harsh fate. She did not lose heart because of people's disdain for her eyes, nor did she shrink back because of the farmers' grievances. She stood up bravely under the guidance of secular people, but fell helplessly in front of secular Clay. What a tragedy.

When I wrote here, I thought of Yu Hua's Living. In the preface of this book, the author concludes as follows: _It is this_ To Live _, which describes people's tolerance to suffering and their attitude to the world. The writing process makes me understand that people live for themselves, not for anything other than life. I feel that I have written noble works._ This expression of the author can also be shown from the words of Fu Gui, the hero of the work: _It's better to be a normal person, earn this and that, earn it and lose my life. Like me, the more I get along, the less promising I am. But I have a long life. People I know die one by one, and I am still alive._

Here, living is far from earth shaking significance, but only lies in its attachment to life and life. In my opinion, the meaning of Living has gone beyond the category of _why people live_. Like Tess of the D'Urbervilles, it is really eulogizing and praising a kind of life.

As for the society, each of us is _ignorant of Lushan Mountain_, and I have no intention to explore its true face. I am satisfied to be worthy of being a person: why is it difficult?

The comment

This is a dolorous book.

This is a story of love.

Tess, the poor girl as innocent as the sleeping birds in the trees, or the small field animals in the hedges, her life destroyed by her relatives, lover and some other people. They say they love her, but they like themselves most. Her parents want her married Alec only because they want her doing some good for the family. Alec wants to possess her, because she is the most beautiful girl in the village. He makes her pregnant but can’t give her his love. Angle is tess’s true love, but his love also not consummate, he can’t forgive tess’s mistake, although he had did wrong with a women.

Why only the women had to pay? I thought of this problem for a long time. In the 19th England, women had not status, they live very hard because people’s prejudice. Tess is the victim under the not fair environment, she lives with force, and even the law thinks the insults are allowable! At the end of the book, Fortune’s wheel bereaves the last thing she had—her life.

How to vindicate the women’s right? Expect change the people’s prejudice women must learn to be adamancy and independent. We must know how to take care of ourselves. We must have the ability to feed ourselves, so that we can win the independent of personality and life. And so that we can have a pure au pair love.

The word “woman” doesn’t means “puny”!

苔丝英文读后感 第15篇

Tess in Tess of the D'Urbervilles is brave. In the age of patriarchy, she dares to talk about self-respect, but in the face of reality, she cannot escape the moral shackles of fate, which is a tragedy of a pure woman. The following is Tess's reading experience of the d'Urbervilles for your reference.

Tess of the D'Urbervilles is a beautiful novel written by the famous British writer Hardy. After reading this work, we will be deeply impressed.

Faced with her father's immersion in the past brilliant family, the expectant eyes of her brothers and sisters, and the scene that the only old horse in the family died in her own hands, Tess violated her principle of not wanting to marry the rich, started a life she did not want to live, and embarked on a path that could destroy her life..

Pure Tess, like a helpless deer, is attacked by the evil Yalei. What she gets is people's cynicism, and bears others' contempt and insult. However, she yearned for love all the time, so Tess always dared not admit her past under the love offensive of Angel, which meant that she was getting closer to her tragedy bit by bit.

At that time, Britain was in a period of change and turbulence. Tess was born in a rural family. As a labourer living at the bottom of the society, although she is beautiful, kind and smart, she looks so small under the pressure of life.

The feelings between _open-minded_ Claire and Tess are fragile. He uses the deep-rooted traditional concept of chastity to see whether a woman is chaste, does not pay attention to Tess's innocence, and personally pushes her into a hopeless situation. The moral prejudice of the society at that time made Tess a victim of bourgeois ethics once again.

From the beginning, Tess's beauty was not publicized. She had clear and naive eyes, but always showed a firm and indifferent expression. Tess is brave. In the age of male power, she dares to talk about self-esteem. At the last moment of execution, her calmness scares off all people. But in the face of reality, she cannot escape the moral shackles of fate, which is a tragedy of a pure woman.

苔丝英文读后感 第16篇

Among the books I read, there is one that I like best. The heroine in this book is very beautiful, and the hero is very gentle and considerate. However, Man 2 is a very tactful person. This book is Tess of the D'Urbervilles, written by Hardy of England.

This book mainly tells that Tess's father heard that he was a descendant of an ancient noble, so he asked his daughter to go to a rich old woman who claimed to be a descendant of Debor. When Tess got there, she was seduced by Alec, the old woman's son. Tess fell in love with Angel while working in the dairy. When he confessed his past misfortunes to his husband, Angel did not forgive him, but left her to Brazil for development. Tess's family is in a dilemma. Her husband has no news. In despair, she has to live with Alec. Angel returned home to find his wife. But Tess felt that she had no face to return to her husband's arms, so she had to kill Alec. After five happy days with her husband, Tess was arrested

When Tess was still a little girl who didn't know anything, Alec destroyed her life's happiness, but Alec said he did so because he loved Tess. Is this also the way of love? His method can only find the blame, hatred, shame and abuse of the world, and will never be recognized and blessed by the world. What about Tess? She has only hatred for Alec, and absolutely has no trace of love, care, let alone pity. Angel is a gentle and considerate man. He will not cheat Tess's love with rhetoric, nor will he get Tess in that dirty way. He melted Tess's heart bit by bit with his perseverance and love, and moved Tess with his actions day by day to finally win her heart. This is the comparison of two people's qualities, behaviors and results. Tess was blinded by the hatred for Alec, and finally killed Alec under the combination of hatred for Alec and love for Angel. He was arrested after spending five days of happiness, happiness and romance with his husband Angel. In prison, she thought about her life so sad that she could not face it, so she had to commit suicide

Tess died with regret and blessing to her husband Angel. He made a choice between love and hate, but also paid the price and lost happiness.

苔丝英文读后感 第17篇

I think Tess must be a kind-hearted girl.

She endured so much pain, but she never complained about others. When she was young, she missed her best love. Then fate began to play jokes with her. A so-called gentleman cheated her and took away the most important thing of an un-married girl. No matter Tess was regretted or not, people around her, contained the church, all of them thought that she was a bad girl. She couldn’t get married. She couldn’t stay home to wait for her parents’ order to get married. She ran away and met her best love. Since she thought that she wasn’t innocence, she stood her deep love of Angel, and put the opportunities to other girls, those who can never compared to her.

At last, she got married to Angel, but the fact of her history made her husband angry and bad-tempered. She tried her best to make her husband happy, but he didn’t care what she had done, how sad she was. Until Angel found that he loved Tess very much, Tess had come back to the disgusted man. True love was a power. Tess killed the man, ran away with Angel, lived in others’ house, and be caught by the police. Although Tess would be in prison and be killed, she wouldn’t regret at last. After all, Angel really loved her at last.

Everybody will day dream sometimes. But we won’t care it any time. Tess’s father was a dreamer. We must think about ourselves. When somebody tells us a thing which is far away from our daily life, we must think about it carefully and investigate the fact. We are not fools. If what they say, what you believe, our world will become a mixture. We all know that we are just citizens of China, and students of Kashgar Teachers’ collage. Life is life. How can we fall into a hole of imagination? This imagination led Tess to death. That was the result.

In the old times of China, people also had a conception of innocence of girls. But did they think about men? Yeah, at that time, men were the host of world. Women just needed to give birth to babies, teach them, and do housework to their husband. That was a duty. Even though at present, we don’t have a judge on men either. We also meet problems on finding jobs. Because those companies think that our women are terrible. We can’t do many things but men can, we will give birth to babies but men don’t, every month we have several days of mental problems but men don’t. That’s unfair. We do so much, so it is right to give more opportunities to us.

At the ball, Tess missed her love. Nowadays, we need to be brave. And when the opportunity is coming, we must catch it in time. If we lose, we can hardly meet it again. The chance is given to the people who get the ready to. So we should prepare and chance will find us. And we need to learn refusing. If Tess refused to made friends with Alec, maybe she could avoid this disaster. In present times, many children know the relationship between women and men earlier. And also many of them don’t know. Actually, our society need to teach them in order to know what will happen or what they should do to protect themselves. Although most parents think that this is a bad thing beyond virtue, but it tends to the young to learn that.

We need forgiveness. We can see that Tess lived in a religion place, but those people didn’t get the thought of kind-hearted and forgiveness. As we are students who have the relief on Marxism, we have learned to be kind-hearted, but how about them? So we should be an atheism. We learn science, not ghosts.

After Tess went to the farm, she met her love again. She was afraid, was under pressure, and was shy on her first feeling of love. Why should we have a crime feeling after making a mistake? Just correct our mistakes, we are good persons too. Of course, we can not make mistakes if we know they are wrong.

We can not avoid problems either. Tess daren’t to tell Angel the truth. When Angel knew that, he couldn’t accept at once. In our daily life, we can meet many difficulties. And we may make mistakes. At that time, we must think highly of it and face it but not to avoid. Fact will come out unless you don’t do it. Most of us can not accept our relatives’ or friends’ betray. So face it earlier, maybe we can get forgiveness earlier.

Another important thing was that Tess’s family had many children. The poor environment made her have to approach to Alec. Should the poor do like this? There are many poor men in our country, but they find jobs for themselves, although the job is very hard to do. They make their own money and endure pains.

I just think of my family. I am the only child of my parents. They love me very much. And most of my life, they had a correct way to teach me. And I have grandparents. When I was young, four of them taught me to do housework. They said that I would be a good girl if I listened to them. And I always listened to them, contained other things, which might be wrong now. This winter vocation I went home. I found that they had many wrong conceptions. So I think that if I was as clever as now when I was young, maybe our family would be a good family. But when I think about the development of our society, my parents and grandparents did a good job already. So I regret a little that I love them not so much. And sometimes I quarreled with them. I should talk to them, right? That is to be a good daughter and granddaughter. Their thought may not catch up with the society. So it’s necessary to us to tell them the right or advanced thing.

Women’s reputation is higher and higher. It is quite different now. Men become good husbands who always listen to their wives. Maybe we must make this situation fairer. Two persons must respect each other, and then life will be better. My parents quarreled in winter vocation. It was a small thing. I don’t know why they quarreled. It seems that if you think more highly of another, you will have more words to say.
