Reading Report of A Tale of Two Cities

A Tale of Two Cities was written by Charles.Dicken (1812~1870),a famous English novelist, who only had a few years on the school.He become well-known writer, thanks to diligent self-study and hard work..

He lived in the transitional period that from the semi-feudal society to industrial capitalist society of England.The background of the novel and the author\'s life has a close relationship between the times .In reality, Dickens himself had great concern to the French Revolution.His interest in the French Revolution began in England which is lurking in serious social crises at that time .The society of England in later the 19th century was remarkably like the France of later the 18th century.

In the novel, with the broad real background of the French Revolution, it profoundly exposed the society contradiction between the poor and aristocrats.The poor suffered from overcrowding, hunger, repetitive labor and long hours of work.Poor peasants were exploited greatly by the aristocrats and they led a terrible life.

On the contrary, the aristocrats shared luxurious material plundered from the poor.What’s more, the upper cla bullied or even killed the poor without any mercy.So brave peasants rose up and fought against the aristocrats.

From the novel , we can easily read about the author\'s thoughts.He intensely attacks the aristocratic social cla which is diolute and cruel, and sincerely sympathizes with the depreed claes.

About the content, the novel is mainly about three parts: the unjust charge, love and revenge, which are independence but also incident cro-correlation stories together.

Dickens portrayed many vivid characters.

About positive characters, Dr.Alexandre Manette ,who\'s experience is taken as the main clue by the author,is honest and kind but suffers the persecution actually .Lucie Manette, Doctor Manette\'s daughter, is beautiful and gentle .Charles Darney is graceful and noble.He is a descendant of French nobility, but diatisfying with his family\'s acts of oppreion of workers and giving up inheritance rights of property, then he lived in London as a French teacher.

Sydney Carton is a talented but cynical British lawyer,who\'s dual character, one that is both selfle and sensitive, as well as self-pitying and inconsiderate, that makes him one of literature\'s most fascinating characters.At that time he had began to love Lucie but he did not pursue her for one year.He loved Lucie, but he‟s afraid himself can bring happine to her.He once told Lucie that“ „If it had been poible, Mi Manette, that you could have returned the love of the man you see before yourself--flung away, wasted, drunken, poor creature of misuse as you know him to be—he would have been conscious this day and hour, in spite of his happine, that he would bring you misery, bring you to sorrow and repentance , blight you, disgrace you, pull you down with him.I know very well that you can have no tenderne for me, I ask for none, I am even thankful that it cannot be.’” We are easily moved by his sprit: “For you, and for any dear to you, I would do anything.If my career were of that better kind that there was any opportunity or capacity of sacrifice in it, I would embrace any sacrifice for you and for those dear to you.” He just buried his love in his heart deeply .when Darnay was to be killed ,he carried out his promise.In the end of the story , Carton was carried to execution ground, but he was quiet, for his Lucie

and her husband Darnay, he believed he had a splendid life and was worth of loosing his life .Sydney Carton saved Darnay and carried out his promise.Although he was killed instead of Darnay, he wouldn‟t die in our heart.

For me, in fact, Sydney Carton made the best and deepest impreion on me.And I believe Such unselfish deed was just the one that every reader wanted to appreciate.

On the other hand, about negative characters, in the novel, without any hesitation, Dickens exposed what the Evremonde brothers had done.In order to own a peasant woman, the Evremonde brothers forced four innocent peasants to death.While they just signed a piece of paper then they could send anyone to the prison until they let him out.How decaying they were! What‟s more, the earls regarded the poor as animals not human beings.And once when his carriage knocked down a poor child, the aristocrat only cared about his own horses but not the young poor child.When he knew the child was dead, instead of fearing guilt, “It is extraordinary to me,\' said he, „that you people cannot take care of yourselves and your children.One or the other of you is forever in the way.How do I know what injury you have done my horses? See! Give him that.\' He threw out a gold coin……”.

These circumstances made me feel the aristocrats are not human beings at all.How cruel and sinister they are.

The author used various kinds of writing techniques, such as flashback (the beginning of A Tale of Two Cities), narration interspersed with flashbacks, foreshadowing, foreshadowing and so on.It made the Structure become complete and tight and the plots become tense and dramatic.Its style is solemn and gloomy.It\'s full of worried and indignant.

What\'s a pity, in my opinion, the whole novel is the lack of humor.That is a fly in the ointment.The author also use lots of rhetoric.For instance, Dickens began A Tale of Two Cities with this famous sentence: “It was the best of times, it was the worse of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishne; it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkne; it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, …”It is a typical example of parallel structures.Ten used in conjunction by the \"it was ...\" constitutes a sentence to form a perfect parallel structure (which includes five sets of pairs of dual sentence).It described the spirit of the era in which this novel takes place and was easy to take the reader into the specific circumstances at the time of that era.

In addition, there are many a good sentences .For example, at the end of the novel, When Carlton was in exchange for his loved Lucie \'s happine with his own lives that he calmly embarked on a guillotine, and said that: It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known .

I was really touched by his great spirit.Many people think that love is selfish, but Sydney Carton tell us there is the purest and loftiest love in the word, although it is hidden in the deep of the heart , it is profound; although it bear a lot of torture, it make his lover happy ;although it is to devote selflely, it is not waiting for payback.This kind of love has reached a new height, it is beautiful with a little cheerle, it must become claic love.Another example, \"Sadly, sadly, the sun rose; it rose upon no sadder sight than the man of good abilities and good emotions, incapable of their directed exercise, incapable of his own help and his own happine, sensible of the blight on him, and resigning himself to let it eat him away.\" (Book 2, Chapter 5), it‟s a theory of Sydney\'s view of himself.

In conclusion, reading between the lines, I began to understand the position of humanitarian was important in Dickens‟ novels.He had a firm and obvious distinguish between mercy and evil.In A Tale of Two Cities, he showed deep sympathy to the poor.On the other hand, he strongly condemned the feudal aristocrats‟ behaviors.In the novel, we can read his thoughts that no matter the person was rich or poor, if his behaviors agreed with morality, it should be praised.If not, then it should be criticized.

More important is we can’t deny that some of Dickens’ views about humanitarian are still worth appreciating and leaning today.That is, we should agree that humanitarian is important to us.And only“love makes the world go round”.

My Opinions About A Tale of Two Cities

A Tale of Two Cities was written by Charles Dickens, who was born in Portsmouth, England in 1812.As the second of eight children, Dickens had to go to work at the age of twelve to support his poor family, and he lived a difficult childhood.This troublesome time scarred him deeply and provided him with substantial material for such stories as Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, and Great Expectations.Though just accepted only little education, Dickens became a famous writer through his struggling self-learning and extremely hard work, and he was the representative writer of realism in the 19th century.

Charles Dickens lived in the period of transition between feudalism and capitalism, when the industrial revolution originated in England swept through Europe.As large numbers of workers invaded into urban centers to earn a living, the bourgeois took advantages of the surplus of labor by keeping wages low.The poor thus remained poor, and often lived in a narrow and filthy environment.Dickens’ writing depicted various directions about this society, and provided a keen, sympathetic chronicle of the plight of the urban poor.

A Tale of Two Cities mainly about the great atrocities of French aristocrats compelled the poor citizens to resist violently.Doctor Manette spent eighteen years as a prisoner in Bastille because he intended to expose the atrocity after learning that

Marquis Evrémonde killed a beautiful farmwife and her younger brother because of his brother’s lust.After Doctor Manette was free again, his daughter Lucie got married with Charles Darnay, Marquis Evrémonde’s nephew, but chose to live in England because he could not accept the cruel injustices of the French social system and the snobbish and cruel values of his uncle.However, Marquis Evrémonde continued his atrocities.After his crazy carriage crushed over a farmer’s little baby as if nothing happen, he was killed at night.A revolutionary storm was brewing.Mr.and Mrs.Defarge were the revolutionaries in the poor Saint Antoine section of Paris.They wanted to kill all French aristocrats, including Charles Darnay.Mr.Defarge used to be Doctor Manette’s servant, so he was kind to Manettes, while his wife’s heart burned with longing for revenge.At last, Charles Darnay was judged to death, But Sydney Carton, a lawyer who loved Lucie deeply, willing to die instead of Darnay, as they had similar appearance.

From my personal point of view, the person A Tale of Two Cities described astounded me very much.Some of them were cruel, crazy and reasonle, while some of them were kind, moral and had own mind.

Sydney Carton was the person I thought the most.He was a smart attorney, without his help, Mr.Stryver could not solve any cases.But he was lazy, alcoholic, and cared nothing and nobody, he even could not find any interests in his own life, it seems that he lived just for wasting life.But he loved Lucie deeply.Finally, he

became a hero, because he sacrificed his life to save Darnay.I didn’t know why the author spent so many words to form such a strange guy at frist, he used his life to love Lucie, after all.But now, I caught it.Perhaps the terrible Carton symbolized the terrible old France, and his change in the end shown that everything could change, including the old France, a new and fine society would replace the violence.

Then, Charles Darnay.He was worthy of esteem or respect.He displayed great virtue in his rejection of his uncle, Marquis Evrémonde.Money and power meant nothing to him, if they came from exploitation and oppreion.Even though he had to inherit his uncle’s bequest, he left them to the poor and lived in London throught his own effort.When he realized that he must go back to Paris to help Gabelle, one of his servants, and make right the wrong his uncle had done, he acted without hesitation because he knew that was his duty.He even refused Carton’s help after he was judged to death.I thought, Charles Darnay was a shiny diamond in that cruel and violent society, and he was a hope, the hope of equality and peace.

Third, Mrs.Defarge.How crazy this woman was.Nobody could stop her steps toward revenge, except the death.Although it said that wherever there is oppreion, there is resistance, I didn’t agree with Mrs.Defarge totally.Her resistance was inhumane, insensible and endle.For just as the aristocracy’s oppreion had made an oppreor Mrs.Defarge herself, so will her oppreion, in turn, make oppreors her victims.In the end of the novel, her death by a bullet from her own gun.It shown the

author’s belief that inordinate retaliated lust would destroy one own self.

On the whole, A Tale of Two Cities is a succeful novel.It shows us oppreion and resistance, violence and terror, revolution and vengeance, love and friendship.

I am lucky enough to live in the 21st century, when peace and development are pursued all along.Nowadays, there also are many problems and diensions among this world, but violence does not the best way problems are solved.Violence just creates more problems, something every sensible person knows.What we need are talks and communication.The time A Tale of Two Cities mentions has gone, we should do enough preparation to adapt the coming age.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishne, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkne, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way

Charles Dickens(1812~1870),one of the greatest novelist in England.I have read his A tale of two cities .And this is the beginning of the book.

“A Tale of Two Cities”, one of Dickens’ works, is a well-known long story.And it has a great influence on the society at that time.When I saw the title at first, I thought it might tell something about the developing proce of two cities, which might be no fun.However, after reading it , I found I had been wrong.

It portrays a brutal, bloody and revengeful society as well as love and friendship.It happened before and after the Revolution in France.The ruthle and cruel landowners and noblemen exploited the miserable people who owned nothing, but these poor people worked for others day and night.Noblemen had the power that one word would doubtlely send others to prison.As time paed by, the noise of the coming-up revolution storm in Paris was growing louder and louder.At last, it was on the fourteenth of July, 1789 that the revolution broke out.

“The Bastille and its officers were in the hands of people, and the people wanted revenge and blood.” The true Freedom of France came.“The Guillotine, the new machine of death, cut off the heads of many, many people—not only the powerful and the cruel, but also the beautiful, the innocent, and the good.” Among the good, there was a man called Darney.Even though his father, wife and friends knew he was innocent, the people thought he was the enemy and would go to the Guillotine.

In spite of a shadow of fear and hate here and there, we can also see the great and kind persons.I think the greatest person is Mr.Manette who had been a prisoner in the Bastille for eighteen years.What he suffered was difficult to imagine, but he was still kind and loved his daughter.He did his best to save his son-in-law, whose father and uncle were the men that had ever sent him to prison.Another great man is the lawyer, Sydney Carton, a friend of Darney.Before Darney went to Guillotine, Mr.Carton changed places with him and he said, “It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever know.” Besides, the story is full of love, including the love between father and daughter, the love between husband and wife, the love among friends and so on.In short, only if you have love in your heart, the life is meaningful.At the same time, the revenge will run away with you, freedom and happine will be around you.

There is no doubt that Charles Dickens is one of the greatest writers

in English.From this book, I see some true lives and moving stories from the old ages.I think you must feel the same as me that we don’t want to live in that condition.To be frank, we all look forward to living in a peaceful and love situation.Though the present life has improved a lot, there are still wars in some places.All that we need is to solve the problems in peaceful ways instead of by force.So let’s work hard together in order to make our life much more meaningful and happier, make our society more harmonious.

My Commons on a Tale of Two Cities This term I read the novel a tale of teo cities according to our English teacher .Honestly, this is not only the first time I read this almost world- famous novel but also the first time I read an English book.I deeply believe that for me the inner true eence can only be found after a dozen of times reading,so I just have some uncomplicated commons on it.As we all know, Charles Dickens\' novel A Tale of Two Cities is based on the French Revolution in the late 1800s.it is one of Dickens\'s most important representative works.the society contradiction before the French Revolution,intensely attacks the aristocratic social cla is diolute and cruel,and sincerely sympathizes with the depreed claes In that terrible time, every moment was full of great fear. the common people, especially the peasants, were poor, hungry and unhappy.The king and the noble men maltreated the poor in many ways but they had never felt a little ashamed, on the contrary they thought they could do bad things in the nature of things.The novel sride 18 years .the author take the fictional character Doctor Nanette’s experience as the main clue, interweaves the unjust charge, love and revenge three independences but also incident cro-correlation stories together, and the clue is complex.18 years before, in 1757, because of knowing a terrible secret, Dr.Manette was picked up and sent to the Bastille--- one of the most terrible prisons in the world, by the noble Marquis St.Evremonde.18 years after ,in 1775, His only daughter, Lucie Manette, fell in love with Charles Darnay, the nephew of the Marquis St.Evremonde, which abandoned the noble degree to live by himself. “Let the past be past.” Thought Dr.Marnette, and was preparing to have a happy new life with his daughter and her hus band.But the revolution of France broke, and because of his family, Charles Darnay was denounced--- denounced by a letter which was wrote by Dr.Marnette himself 18 years ago! What a cruel strike! Isn’t it? Though he was innocent, poor Charles would have been sent to the guillotine.

The story seems to be over, but There is another man we might refer to, that is Sydney Carton, the lawyer of England, the good friend of Manette’s families, who took after Charles very much.It was he, finally be killed instead by his own mind.Why? As you may ask, I want to ask the same question.That is because---I gue---love.And of course, the HOPE, yes, the HOPE.When Sydney was killed as Charles, there was much hope on his face.What was he thinking about as he went to his death? If we could have listened to his thoughts, we might have heard beautiful things:

in my view, Mr.Carton is the real hero.What kind of love will lead a person to save an irrelevant person\'s life with his own life, just because she loves this man, and if he died, she\'ll suffer from deep sorrow? How much has he sacrificed in order to earn the happine of the one she loves? To some degree, he\'s helping his enemy.He has both the bright side and the dark side.He used to be Stryver\'s \"jackal\" who acts as the most humblest capacity.He used to be indifferent to troubles of others.When she appears, he gives his life to her.

As an outstanding writer, in Dickens\'s work, the language skill is eential.Each kind of rhetoric technique, like the analogy, the exaggeration, the contrast, the humorous, and the taunt are handled skillfully and the artistry of the work is also delivered the peak.

But as for me the most thing the novel impereed me is this novel criticizes the violence and oppreion in the society.The author exprees his opinion on two parts.First, he criticizes the aristocrats, esp.the representative Marquis of Evremonde.Second, he also criticizes the revolutionaries in the French Revolution.when we see from the description of the couple, the author does not think high of the revolution.When the revolutionaries begin their revenge, the author describes that everyone is terrible, the man is terrible, the woman crazy, and there is not a human creature at that time.We can see although the author does not show his agreement to the aristocrats’ cruelty, he does not like the bloody revolution, either.

What is more, this novel advocates love and self-sacrifice.Dr.Manette, Charles Darnay, and Sydney Carton, all desperate men leading catastrophic lives, make great sacrifices in order to attain true physical, spiritual, and societal resurrection for themselves and the ones they love.

Overall, Charles Dickens is a humanitarian.And according to the analysis of the characters in A Tales of Two Cities, we can see that the author advocates the universal love and equality between human beings.And this is the basic element in a peaceful and harmonious society.Everyone should love people and only the humanitarianism can improve this situation.And A Tale of Two Cities is the best work, which embodies his humanitarianism.So that we can see that Charles Dickens is an outstanding humanitarian of the capitalistic reformism in the 19th century.

That\'s my understanding of a part of this book.And I\'ll read it again to catch more.

Tell them the story

——A tale of two cities

英语师范061 康婷婷 0607012030

To those who doesn’t know the story ,we must let them know, there was once a different world than the one they see ……A crazy ,dark and cold society ,where many people—— the beautiful , the innocent ,and the good were sentenced to death by the crazy , unreasoning “good” citizens .Let them know, there was once a kind gentleman, who touch people’s spirit and hearts deeply……

It was a novel based on the French Revolution in the late 1800s.In that terrible time, every moment was full of great fear.Before that great revolution, the common people, especially the peasants, were poor, hungry and unhappy.The king and the noble men maltreated the poor in many ways but they had never felt a little ashamed, on the contrary they thought they could do bad things in the nature of things.

The Marquis of Evremonde was the representative of the hateful noble men.He and his brother killed a beautiful girl ,her brother ,and her father .Dr Manette ,who knew their scandalsclearly ,was put into prison for no good reasons for 18 years .During the dark and long period ,he was mentally and physically damaged .Her daughter, Lucie ,was a gentle and beautiful girl .She was loved by two young gentlemen at the same time——Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton .Though Charles was a

French man and Sydney was an Englishman, the two men looked like each other very much, but Lucie only fell in love with Charles .On the day of Lucie’s marriage to Charles Darnay, Charles told Dr Manette that he was the nephew of The Marquis of Evremonde.In order to save his daughter’s happine, Dr Manette put his hate for the hateful family aside and pretended to know nothing.Try to think about it ,in those years that was full of anger and revenge ,if a person were treated like that ,he must hate the whole family of the noble extremely, just like Madame Defarge, whose family was destroyed by TheEvremondes brother ,but he forgave him! We can see how calm and wise Dr Manette was .But the past hadn’t disappeared and been forgotten ,the terrible thing was waiting for them ——because of his special status, Charles ,who was very kind to others and did everything he could to redeem his family’s crime ,was sentenced to death! Sadne hang over them day and night ,and hero always appear at this time——Sydney Carton .

“ Darnary counted the hours——nine, gone for ever, ten, eleven, twelve, gone for ever”, in fact ,he counted the time for Sydney ——the brave man would give his life to keep her dear Lucie’s love alive.In the prison, he made Charles aswoon and put on Darnary’s clothes.When Charles was safe, he waited for death lonely and calmly.Then he met with an innocent pure girl, they gave encouragement to each other so when they faced death they wouldn’t be too afraid.The atmosphere

around the Guillotine was terrible, but Sydney was very calm——he died for love! He knew that what matters are the lives we touch when we are alive.

“It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far ,far better rest that I go to, than I have ever known.” He could never see his dear motherland, England, but he had a hope for the bright future——a happy and peaceful life in his motherland ,and all over the world.

Let’s tell them the story , and pray for the unforgettable man : Explain that life a gift we must cherish

And that we mustn’t be selfish when it is time to let go

双城记读书报告英文

My Opinions About A Tale of Two Cities A Tale of Two Cities was written by Charles Dickens, Portsmouth, second of eight children, Dickens had to go to work at the age of twelve to support his poor family, and he lived a difficult childhood.This troublesome time scarred him deeply substantial material for such stories as Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, and Great Expectations.Though just accepted only little education, Dickens became a famous writer through his struggling self-learning and extremely hard work, and he was the representative writer of realism in the 19th century.Charles Dickens lived in the period of transition capitalism, when the industrial revolution originated in Europe.As invaded into urban centers to earn a living, the bourgeois took advantages surplus of labor by keeping wages low.The poor thus remained poor, and often lived in a narrow and filthy environment.Dickens’ writing directions about this society, and provided a keen, sympathetic chronicle of the plight of the urban poor.A Tale of Two Cities mainly about the great atrocities compelled the violently.Doctor Manette spent eighteen years as a prisoner in Bastille because he intended to learning that Marquis Evrémonde killed a beautiful farmwife and her younger brother because of his brother’s lust.After Doctor Manette was free again, his daughter Lucie got married with Charles Darnay, Marquis Evrémonde’s nephew, but chose to live in England because he could not accept the cruel injustices of the French social system and the snobbish and cruel values of his uncle.However, Marquis Evrémonde continued his atrocities.After his crazy carriage crushed over a farmer’s little baby as if nothing happen, he was killed at night.A revolutionary storm was brewing.Mr.and Mrs.Defarge were the revolutionaries in the poor Saint Antoine section of Paris.They wanted to kill all French aristocrats, including Charles Darnay.Mr.Defarge used to be Doctor Manette’s servant, so he was kind to Manettes, while his wife’s heart burned with longing for revenge.At last, Charles Darnay was judged to death, But Sydney Carton, a lawyer who loved Lucie deeply, willing to die instead of Darnay, as they had similar appearance.

From my personal point of view, the person A Tale of Two Cities described astounded me very much.Some of them were cruel, crazy and reasonle, while some of them were kind, moral and had own mind.

Sydney Carton was the person I thought the most.He was a smart attorney, without his help, Mr.Stryver could not solve any cases.But he was lazy, alcoholic, and cared nothing and nobody, he even could not find any interests in his own life, it seems that he lived just for wasting life.But he loved Lucie deeply.Finally, he became a hero, because he sacrificed his life to save Darnay.I didn’t know why the author spent so many words to form such a strange guy at frist, he used his life to love Lucie, after all.But now, I caught it.Perhaps the terrible Carton symbolized the terrible old France, and his change in the end shown that everything could change, including the old France, a new and fine society would replace the violence.

Then, Charles Darnay.He was worthy of esteem or respect.He displayed great virtue in his rejection of his uncle, Marquis Evrémonde.Money and power meant nothing to him, if they came from exploitation and oppreion.Even though he had to inherit his uncle’s bequest, he left them to the poor and lived in London throught his own effort.When he realized that he must go back to Paris to help Gabelle, one of his servants, and make right the wrong his uncle had done, he acted without hesitation because he knew that was his duty.He even refused Carton’s help after he was judged to death.I thought, Charles Darnay was a shiny diamond in that cruel and violent society, and he was a hope, the hope of equality and peace.

Third, Mrs.Defarge.How crazy this woman was.Nobody could stop her steps toward revenge, except the death.Although it said that wherever there is oppreion, there is resistance, I didn’t agree with Mrs.Defarge totally.Her resistance was inhumane, insensible and endle.For just as the aristocracy’s oppreion had made an oppreor Mrs.Defarge herself, so will her oppreion, in turn, make oppreors her victims.In the end of the novel, her death by a bullet from her own gun.It shown the 3/4

author’s belief that inordinate retaliated lust would destroy one own self.

On the whole, A Tale of Two Cities is a succeful novel.It shows us oppreion and resistance, violence and terror, revolution and vengeance, love and friendship.

I am lucky enough to live in the 21st century, when peace and development are pursued all along.Nowadays, there also are many problems and diensions among this world, but violence does not the best way problems are solved.Violence just creates more problems, something every sensible person knows.What we need are talks and communication.The time A Tale of Two Cities mentions has gone, we should do enough preparation to adapt the coming age.

双城记英文观后感(精选多篇) 第一篇:双城记 爱—幸福的基本元素 -----------双城记观后感

itwasthebestoftimes,itwastheworstoftimesitwastheseasonoflight,itwastheseasonofdarkneitwasthespringofhope,itwasthewinterofsadneitwastheyearonethousandsevenhundredandseventy-five不得不承认这本书的开头就深深地吸引了无数人。书的开头就如那个错综复杂,矛盾。

《双城记》以法国贵族的荒淫残暴、人民群众的重重苦难和法国大革命的历史,来影射当时的英国社会现实,充分展现了两座城市的状况。《双城记》被誉为描写法国大革命的最杰出的代表作,我想最大的原因可能是因为它的与众不同。和其他的作品,比如卡莱尔的《法国大革命》不同,狄更斯更注重的是底层人民的喜怒哀乐。尽管在那个时代,这些小人物本身并不能引起世界的关注。但是作者敏锐的捕捉到这些小人物和大革命有着千丝万缕的联系,可以说法国大革命本身就是有小人物们的力量所引发的。

在这部作品里,我看到了很多很多不同的人。;lucie是爱和温情的化身;drmanette正直高尚,且善良宽容,是仁爱的理想化身忠厚老实的lorry豪爽忠诚的miprocharlsdarnay是给统治阶级指明出路的人。这些人物表现出来的种种美德,都是作为人道主义者的狄更斯所热情赞颂的。扭曲了人性的德发奇太太,,残忍阴险的埃佛瑞蒙兄弟……复杂的仇恨纠缠不清,残忍的复仇制造了更多仇恨,爱在地狱的边缘再生,却是以生命为代价。这错综复杂的一幕幕,活生生的展现在面前,仿佛重现了那个失去理智的时代。

《双城记》作为一部不朽的著作,如果drmanette的存在和所作所为,这部小说就失去了它的价值和光辉。它提醒了我们:真正的自由与平等是无法用断头台建立。

dralexandrenmanette的身世很值得人去琢磨,到底受到多大的冤屈,多大的经历,多大的思想创伤,都令我们去思考。十八年的牢狱生活不仅摧毁了他的身体健康,也使得他的精神遭受严重的伤害。十八年不见阳光,不知外面冷暖的日子,没人任何亲人的消息,没有任何人间的温暖的牢狱里,他依然保持着那颗正直高尚的心。即使经历了那样不公平的待遇,他并没有像madamedefarge那般有一种惧怕的感觉,冰冷、毫无人情,充满仇恨。他受到女儿的关心后,恢复成一个正常的人,并继续发扬着他救死扶伤的医者精神。没有沉浸在复仇的泥塘里,而是尽情地享受和心爱的女儿,友好忠诚的朋友在一起的美好时光。我十分敬佩他,也非常欣赏他的正直,宽容。更是被他的明智,通情达理深深感动。哪怕知道charlsdarnay就是让他无辜遭罪的贵族的儿子,他依然将自己心爱的女儿交与了他,不为别的只为他们真心相爱,为他能带给善良的lucie幸福快乐。他最终展现的,是一位作为父亲,用爱关心自己的女儿的情节中我们可以感受到爱是人间最好的疗伤药。他无疑是不幸的,但是他的不幸是残暴的法国统治阶级和残忍的贵族造成的。是那个糟糕的时代的造成的。但是我们还是能明显的感觉到他的幸运。而他的幸运是他自己创造的。即使经历了十八年的痛苦生活,尽管他的精神确实收到严重的打击。他却不选择报复。就是这个明智的选择让他拥有了幸福。难道我们不该赞扬他,向他学习吗?

“复活在我,生命在我,信我的人,虽然死了,也必复活;凡活着信我的人,必永远不死。”这就是狄更斯为“最坏的时代”开出的良药,然而这毕竟是一种理想。有人说,鲜血无法洗去仇恨,更不能替代爱---贵族的暴虐对平民造成的伤痛不会因为鲜血而愈合,平民对贵族的仇恨也无法替代对已逝亲人的爱。这本小说悬念很多,铺垫很充实,是那种越看越明白的,就像一条条小溪逐一地汇聚,最后成了奔腾的大江,使人越看越激动,越看越想看。这部作品终究还是善与恶的对抗,善的胜利,令人激动地收场了。同时也让我们深思,复仇到底是否值得人们去做。人们常常歌颂爱的伟大,或许就是因为爱的力量能让深受苦痛的人们重见幸福的光芒吧。

1 Full of romantic elements in the suspense novel ---a Tale of Two Cities

1.1 Strong romantic elements in Dickens’ novel It is generally regarded Dickens as a realist, but not a romantic writer.However, French historian Kazha thinks that Dickens is eentially a romantic, he claified Dickens and the Bronte sisters as a romantic writer,to Thackeray called realists.His argument on the later research on Dickens is very enlightening.British novelist, George Giing and Jester Dayton found the romanticism in Dickens’ creations, Giing think that Dickens and Shakespeare, are the supreme idealist, he even directly called Dickens a \"romantic realism \" [1 ] ; Jester Dayton that shaped the characters of Dickens is not a person like\" God \", he called England Dickens,\" the last myth of writers, perhaps the greatest myth of writers \" [2] .Modern British poet T.S.Eliot said that \"Dickens\'s characters and the characters Dante and Shakespeare, like, all belong to the scope of poetry\" [2] .Indeed, the spirit of idealism to the romantic way Dickens can never exclude.In his work, romantic love is often described; the struggle of good over evil is romantic; figure of joys and sorrows of life and death is often romantic parting.Specific to the \"Tale of Two Cities,\" the novel, Carlton and Pro complete of their noble acts are on the very romantic, even when Cruncher from bad to good are also very impaioned, romantic and exciting atmosphere.A Tale of Two Cities is a true reflection of the times that all kinds of conflict and discord, quirks, depreion, vitality and their unusual wealth.Although the details of Charles Dickens described unique, the characters sharp and detailed observation of the external characteristics, he may be described as a \"realist\" is not appropriate.

1.2A suspense novel with wonderful story Dickens is good at creating suspense..A Tale of Two Cities is particularly succeful in dramatized the plight of individuals with personality conflicts by a good structure and the tense atmosphere in the social historical background.At the beginning , the writer didn’t tell us the reason why Dt.Manette as a prison for 18 years.When Charles Darnay ask to Dr.Manette that he want to marry Lucie, Manette seemed to be aware of what cause for alarm, again and again to stop Darnay, asked him to repeat the morning of the marriage; the same evening, Manette again fall ill, the spirit of it Lost in the days of the Bastille.

Even wondered for a moment the reader, however, not be explained Dickens.Readers can not help asking: what is the link of Darnay\'s life experience and Manette? Until the end of the book, people knows the link of Damay and Manette .By use of suspense, Dickens make the Manette as a person who see the bright side of human nature, and bring a wonderful story and the beauty of works of art for readers.

2 The benevolence spirit and in the novel.

2.1The justification of the revolutionA Tale of Two Cities\" was written in the 19th century 50\'s, a period of rapid economic development of capitalism.The capitalist development brings evils and impoverishment of working people\'s lives lead the British society to the edge of the outbreak of a social revolution.As early as 30~40years in 19c , the working cla to fight for political rights, on a grand scale acro the country launched a \"charter movement.\" Which Lenin called asthe world\'s first broad, truly ma, political, proletarian revolutionary movement[3] And this makes Dickens clearly aware of the 50\'s Britain and 18th century French society is very similar .For this reason,he decided to create a novel set in the French Revolution to Criticize the British social reality, provide a reference for the contemporary English, it is the background that the novel \"Tale of Two Cities\" in 1859 come out.\"Tale of Two Cities\" is a historical theme of the novel, but Dickens\'s focus is firmly targeted at the real life.Works of the late 19th century French and British social life, extensive descriptions of the French Revolution broke out to explore the root causes are to the French Revolution\'s various social crisis and the reality of British society together, in an ancient metaphor for the modern use of way, warned the British rulers of the bourgeoisie: the cruel exploitation and oppreion, the people\'s extreme poverty is the root of the revolution, if not alleviate the suffering of the civilian population, then the current outbreak of revolution in Britain is inevitable.Novels to social conflicts before the French Revolution shows very detailed and real, whether in cities or in rural areas \", hunger rampant everywhere\", the majority of the people to \"mulberry gra\" for the food, while the upper cla is extravagant, bully Pa women, among the country do not see \"a face with any respect,\" unbearable oppreion, the people are ready to \"hang with a rope and pulley to the enemy.\" In

1859, Charles Dickens On the \"Tale of Two Cities\" creative experience, said: \"I spent a lot of time and effort to create\" Tale of Two Cities \", after numerous changes, finally satisfied.Able to repay my creation your effort in any way any money and other things, but the novel\'s theme of the meaning and the joy of creation is complete.\"[4] Indeed, the deep thinking of this for Dickens, regardle of their historical significance revealed and social significance, or poe its own aesthetic values are worthy descendants mining and exploration.

2.2 Forgivene Thought and the benevolence spirit \"Tale of Two Cities\" is a controversial novel, the lower revolutionary image Madame Defarge of the novel impact aement is an important factor.Liang Shiqiu said: \"Dickens read the card depends on which of the\" French Revolution \", was deeply moved and determined to try to write a history of the Romans.Karay and sent two cars for his reference book, but most are not Charles Dickens Canada used because he did not want to write the history of the revolution have been Carey and the best structure in the former, not to write the neceary, as long as he captures the atmosphere of that era, with a story to illustrate the bloodshed will only lead to more bloodshed, only love can save the hearts of catastrophe.\"[5] This is insightful.Dickens is the French Revolution as the only carrier to reflect the sharp cla antagonisms and intense cla struggle, as reflected in this cla antagonism and cla struggle has shown a wide range of people and human nature, the expreion of specific events that goes beyond and have a more general sense of things.Dickens in the novel shaped the way Lucie, Manette ,Darnay and Carlton the ideal of humanitarian character, in that they embodied a kind of humanity as the core of the Christmas spirit.Best embodies the spirit of this love to be part of the British lawyer Carlton, purely for love, his unconditional practice the \"I want for you and your loved ones and make all the sacrifices\" of the promise, help Lucie\'s husband escape the prison to arrange a road away from the danger , while he replace Darnay on the guillotine.The Lord said: I am the resurrection, life is in me; believes in me, though dead, yet he will live; whoever lives and believes in me will never die.\"intended to emphasize the spirit of Carlton\'s benevolence and altruism world forever.

Conclusion

A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens shows effectively the novelist’s aim to point out the injustice of oppreion and the justification of the revolution.However, Dickens shows his strong criticism on the exce of bloodshed during the French Revolution, especially in his consideration of the innocent(like Charles Darnay) being punished along with the guilty.He feels that the old ways of oppreion must be changed, and that much oppreion and much misery inevitably lead to revolution, but when the revolution actually comes, he thinks that it is too violent and that the le bloodshed the better.The chief and the best portrayed figure is the benevolence spirit the leader of the revolution.

第18篇:双城记读后感

双城记读后感

为了你,为了你所亲爱的任何人,我愿意做任何事情。倘若我的生命中有值得牺牲的可能和机会,我甘愿为你和你所爱的人们而牺牲。

——西德尼·卡尔顿

就这样被感动了。它是一部波澜壮阔的历史,它是一个感人肺腑的故事,它更是一种纯洁而高尚的爱。它就是狄更斯笔下的《双城记》。全书充溢着扑朔迷离的色彩,作者以一连串引人入胜的故事为框架,以十八世纪法国大革命为背景。在黑暗的资本主义社会里,农民阶级和工人阶级忍受着资产阶级无情的剥削。正如作者所说:“昌盛而又衰微,笃诚而又多疑,光明而又黑暗,这是充满阳光希望的黎明,又是阴暗失望的长夜,人们拥有一切,却两手空空。”而主人公西德尼·卡尔顿、露西·曼内特和查尔斯·达尔内之间真挚的情感,成为这部名著亮丽的一笔。

在小说中,狄更斯成功地塑造了主要人物鲜明的个性。曼内特是个深爱女儿的父亲,在经历磨难后仍宽容地把女儿嫁给仇人的儿子;露西是温柔善良的贤妻良母,为了让丈夫能看自己一眼每天风雨不改地到大墙对面站立两小时;查尔斯是个正直、豁达的贵族,与露西相爱,为了爱情甘愿放弃爵位与财产。

小说中还有一个人物,就是让人有点憎恶的泰雷兹·德伐日。失去亲人使她活着的唯一意义就是革命胜利之时为亲人报仇。可是等到革命胜利时,她许多年来梦寐以求的复仇却失去了对象,她的愤怒之深是可以想象的,然而为了发泄积愤却拿侯爵兄弟的儿子及其家人抵罪,她走上了一条与那些伪贵族同样残忍的道路,于是她的种种行为使她一步步失去了读者的谅解。最后,恶人有恶报,她戏剧性地因为手qiang走火而结束了自己充满仇恨的一生。也许这才是她最佳的结局。那些像德伐日那样以复仇为生活唯一目的的人,即使命运坎坷,也决不能博得人们的同情。

而在整篇小说中,最让我喜欢也是最令人感动的就是律师助手——西德尼·卡尔顿。他一出场就带着一身忧郁,隐去了光芒,总是灰心、失望、冷漠、凄凉。他妥协于周围环境,但有时却又显得格格不入,作为律师助手的他才华出众,却甘心情愿躲在人后,做别人成功的垫脚石,他仿佛亲手筑起了一堵墙,隔绝了名利、社会,默默地逗留在角落里。他与查尔斯长得十分相似,也同样深爱着露西,然而两者命运却截然不同。他羡慕查尔斯,也恨他。可在经历痛苦的煎熬后,他依旧带着诚挚的祝福,愿露西与查尔斯永远幸福,因为“爱比恨更为强有力得多”。这个表面上懒散、放纵的“无用之徒”,内心却是崇高而纯洁的。

终于,他向露西表达了自己的情感。每次读起那段话,难免感到心酸,“我希望你知道你是我灵魂最后的梦。我是在堕落的生活中看见你和你的父亲,还有你所经营的那个甜蜜的家,才恢复了我心中自以为早己死去的往日的梦想。我也因此才感到比任何时候都要凄凉可怜。自从我见到你以后,我才为一种原以为不会再谴责我的悔恨所苦恼。我听到我以为早已永远沉默的往日的声音在悄悄地催我上进……”

当查尔斯因为家族的犯罪而被无辜判决死刑,西德尼竟然代替他去断头台接受行刑。在生命与爱之间,他选择了后者。他爱露西,为了她的幸福,他为她的爱人献出自己的生命。当他走上断头台的时候,面上依然保持着笑容,他信守对露西的诺言……因为,他的爱便是他的生命。此时此刻,我的脑海中想起了裴多菲的那首诗:“我愿意是急流/山里的小河/在崎岖的路上/岩石上经过/只要我的爱人是一条小鱼/在我的浪花中快乐地游来游去……”

尽管小说以一个意外的“大团圆”收场,但当读者流着眼泪读完该书时,却感到无限的遗憾、心酸。有人说爱情是自私的,但在狄更斯的《双城记》中,我却能深深地感受到一种超脱世俗的最纯洁、最崇高的爱。它隐藏在内心深处,但却无比的深厚;它默默地承受煎熬,为的只是使心爱的人幸福;它总是无私地付出,而不求一点儿的回报。这种爱在无形中上升到一个新境界,永恒地放着凄美而迷人的光彩。

“为了你,为了你所亲爱的任何人,我愿意做任何事情。倘若我的生命中有值得牺牲的可能和机会,我甘愿为你和你所爱的人们而牺牲。”

双城记读后感

复活在我,生命也在我;信我的人,虽然死了,也必复活;凡活着信我的人,必永远不死。

那是最昌明的时代,那是最衰微的时代;那是睿智开花的岁月,那是混沌蒙昧的岁月;那是信仰笃诚的年代,那是疑云重重的年代;那是阳光灿烂的季节,那是长夜晦暗的季节;那是欣欣向荣的春天;那是死气沉沉的冬天;我们眼前无所不有,我们眼前一无所有。这个就是狄更斯笔下的18世纪后期法国大革命时期。

他在对社会问题的思考中认为统治阶级的奢靡暴虐必然导致激烈残酷的报复和社会制度的更换。但似乎他并没有时刻表达着这一主题。反而是在更多的刻画人们之间的爱,他那种反对暴力的人道主义思想。这也正是他想表达的另一主题。在他对人物的精心刻画中透露他好像是不认同革命群众的。我们却知道,法国大革命是世界上无产阶级第一次登上历史政治舞台,它无一阵狂风暴雨吹遍法国,使它成为欧洲各国中最为彻底的一次革命。但是书中更多的是无数复仇者的愤怒掩盖了他们的善良,仇恨使他们多么的不顾一切,暴力成为他们的享受。并没有深刻剖析这次革命发生的必然性,也没有对受苦受难的贫苦人民奋起反抗的那种精神进行赞扬。不过在这次革命中不得不说很多人是盲目的,无知的,愚昧的。在对抗这种盲目无知中,作者也表述出了他的最高道德理想:以爱战胜恨,以牺牲自己求得人与人之间的和谐。在最后,作者通过对角色的意识流动抒写了《双城记》的最终主题——复活在我,生命也在我;信我的人,虽然死了,也必复活;凡活着信我的人,必永远不死。

双城记读后感

诗境一样。一样,我们茫然无措。直到的,我自己走,自己选择。

茫茫人海,逝者如斯。我取木成筏遨游人世,不禁产生莫名的感叹:人生几何?

也许,一个炎热的天气,一个空旷的操场,一群训练的学生,会演绎出好戏。也许他们会为一个微不足道的细节而争吵,为齐步走时,喊口号‘1’时迈哪条腿而争吵。又也许矛盾会激化,团队的队长与队员之间产生了分歧。队员的主张正确,队长也不错。按常理讲人是不会轻易否定自己的。人群之中,我行我素,结果更多的是争吵和混乱的气氛。

谁都不愿意自己的想法被否定,谁不会心悦诚服纠正自己同时承认他人。也许因为虚荣,因为面子,也许因为别的什么。

人是独立的个体。有些事自己更情愿坚持自己的观点,自己的思考。广阔天地有许多不同的人在同一个天地,同一个时间,同一个机会,参与回答同样的问题,却做着不同的选择。

曾经作为希腊着名的哲学家第欧根尼也在做不同‘选择’:他一生都与其他的人背道而驰,到处狡辩,甚至连柏拉图也无奈于这个发疯的苏格拉底。剧场散戏时他往里挤,还说:“我的一生都在做这件事。”人们都在为亚历山大开路,崇拜亚历山大。他却言:“请不要挡住我的阳光。”心的自由和开放是第欧根尼一生的写照。也许这是一个稀有的例子。因为无论怎样,特殊人都是在追求着自己的信仰,走着不同的路,同时又与大众信仰相抵。崇尚了其他信念,便是犯了大错,会被唾骂,被视为邪恶,丑态和另类。讥笑攻击便接踵而来,直到你不在坚持或你屈服了的时候……

有些人就愿意追求大众,它是一个真正的与‘人民群众’同在的人,他相信众人并愿意沉沦于服从权威。有了服从者便有主宰者,为了维护自己的权威,所以才会有封建的迷信,所以才会有那历史社会遗留下的刑具和宗教的火盆。因为绝对的正确和错误由他们来定。当地一长满的泥墙于青苔遍布的石阶诉说的一代代王朝的幽暗与光明大起大落,天气的祥和阴霾。一天天的过渡,一年年的发展。

现代的年代可以用双城记开卷语来描写,人的大脑的发育,人心的深邃的思考,这个复杂而又简单的人所描绘的社会!

这美好的年代却糟糕混乱和欺骗不退,反而愈演愈烈,那个信仰美德的日子,善良的手连向的心却在怀疑,我们面前有素质,快乐,人道,全民,却有一半是跟风。着我们发现了好的路,走走着却又换了方向。

同样,相反!

当我在做选择题时会思考:世界上有没有完美的答案,一个永不改变的真理,一个能遵循一生的格言。

因为白天也有绿阴,深夜也有灯火通明。生命有许多可能不可太绝对。但当我的思想出现扭曲,想法出现偏折信念动摇时,我们不坐以待毙,沉溺自我,要有更为敏锐的目光,提起勇气然后选择变化或挑战未来。

夕阳在山,小山在迷雾茫茫中,朦胧眯着双眼。窥探着忙碌的人。红绿的交替,人海的攒动在余辉的照耀下懒懒地划来划去。我奔跑,停滞,回首。是徘徊,还是直走,或者停留?

诗境一样。一样,我们茫然无措。直到的,我自己走,自己选择。

选择,只有两个。对或错。只有两个。

第19篇:《双城记》读后感

前些日子借了一本超厚的世界名著《双城记》,看了几章后,我决定还了它,实在没意思,而且又看不懂,今天我借了它的减肥版,总算看完它了。书中人物其实很多,但人物的各种关系又是那么的令我意想不到,主人公是一个曾在巴士底狱当了18年的囚徒马内特医生,她的女儿露茜,他的女婿查尔斯…

英国和法国就是所谓的双城,小说的背景也就是法国大革命,我是学历史的,关于法国大革命我是清楚的,联系到小说中,我真想问一下,是真的吗?小说嘛,多半是虚构的,看完之后,给我的印象是:狠毒的得法热夫人,无辜的查尔斯,好得无话可说的西得尼`卡登先生,忠心的女仆人普罗斯小姐,热心肠的贾维斯`劳里先生…

我对好人总有一种好感,对坏人总有一种厌恶感,不奇怪啊,每个人都这样,除非他是超级好人,对坏人存有仁慈的心,或者他是超级大坏蛋,对好人总有一种感觉,“他们好虚伪啊!”其实这也不奇怪的,事实就是如此嘛!一群虚伪的家伙。得法热夫妇去找露茜,原以为要帮她的丈夫查尔斯,其实是害了她的丈夫再次入狱,并且最终导致卡登先生的死.我本人觉得卡登先生很讲义气,重感情,他第一次见露茜就爱上她,虽然表白遭到拒绝,但对她的爱仍不改变,最后为了露茜能和她丈夫团聚,为了露茜不再伤心流泪,他去监狱和查尔斯调包了,用自己的命换了露茜的幸福,不能不说他是令我最受感动的一个人物。

第20篇:双城记读后感

《双城记》读后感

我是读完这部文学作品之后立刻写这篇读后感的,真是太精彩了,抑制不住自己内心的激动。特别是读到最后两三章的时候,原先迷茫如大雾般的情节慢慢地似受到初生的阳光而将迷雾驱散后的天空一般明朗起来。怪不得作者狄更斯自述,这部小说使他“深受感动,无比兴奋”,并且渴望能亲自在舞台上扮演西德尼•卡顿;在我看来,西德尼•卡顿确实是一个能让人“深受感动,无比兴奋”的人物,虽然我一开始对他的出场没十分感兴趣,只是一个放荡君子而已;最后兄妹两人相继奔赴断头台的那个场景真的让我泪如雨下。尤其是最后的留言,包含了小说的结局,又显示了西德尼•卡顿的性格,以及让我们再次看到了人性的善良之处。“我所做的,是我一生做过的最好、最最好的事情;我即将得到的,将是我一生最安详、最最安详的休息。”,确实是五段催人泪下的“临终告别词”。

首先,对于人物,稍微做一点个人见解。

就按人物的出场顺序,第一个就是贾维斯•洛瑞。从后面的描写来看,他是一位兢兢业业的为银行工作的职员,极度忠实于银行以及后文中遇到的朋友亚历山大•马奈特。他起码在银行里待了几十年吧,从作者风趣的描写“在台尔森银行各式各样的幽暗大橱小柜之间,一些年迈老头郑重其事地在办公。每当雇用一个年轻人进伦敦台尔森银行,他们总是把他藏起来一直放到老,像块干酪似的把他藏在一个阴暗的角落里,直到他浑身有了十足的台尔森味,长满斑斑青霉。”中就可以看出。而对于他极其重要的工作都可以置之不理的就是对老朋友的关心与帮助。我记得在文中确实写过一处,为了老友他可以连工作都放在一旁。还有在露西结婚后她父亲的发病,也使洛瑞先生很不安:“洛瑞先生度日如年,希望越来越渺茫,心情也越来越重。”、“洛瑞先生由于焦急不安地日夜守护,弄得精疲力竭,竟在值班时睡着了。”、“不过这时他突然犯起疑来,怀疑自己是不是仍在梦中。”都到了这种身心疲惫的程度了,可以看出他对朋友一家子的友谊有多深。还有,最后要不是有洛瑞为他们准备行程,较坦然地通过各个验收,光凭后面一个惊恐的女人,一个昏厥的男人,一个弱小的小孩,一个神志不清的老人,再怎么逃也逃不出所谓“人民”的魔爪的。

再一个人物就是露西了。她本人的出场就已经敲定了她是一个富有同情心的弱小而又坚强的女子。对于被囚禁了十八年的老父,她用自己的爱帮助他走过一个个难关。她先找回了自己的父亲,帮他脱离的肉体上的束缚,而对于父亲那深刻入脑海中的不定期的苦难的回忆,只有她才能最快、最轻柔地安慰住父亲那不定的心,这一点是连老友洛瑞都束手无策的。还有的就是在法庭上的作证,她相当地用情,“面对着这样的同情,这样动人的青春和美貌,被告此时的心情,比面对所有看热闹的人群要难受多了。”等等描写的句子都显得露西极有同情心;最终吻别丈夫的时候,她还是坚持下来了,和所有面对悲剧的人一样,坚强地面对;虽然后来还是有些力不从心,但她还是爱的化身。 说道女儿不免要提到她的父亲。亚历山大•马奈特的身世很值得人去琢磨,到底受到多大的冤屈,多大的经历,多大的思想创伤,都令我们去思考。他受到女儿的关心后,同样地力所能及地回报他的女儿。他最终展现的,是一位作为父亲,用爱关心自己的女儿的情节。同样的,本人认为他也有他的极大的不幸。这号人物的身世十分坎坷,而最终并为实实在在地为女儿带来幸福,旧病复发,满屋子寻他的活计,就是这时,他才显得苍老又无依无靠。一个悲剧导致另一个悲剧的发生。

对于达内,这个人一般般,追寻着母亲的理念而“引发一系列的事端”(这里并不是对他

的否定)。他其实也是内心善良的人,由于这个使他因小小的求救就回去致使自己与一家人都陷入了困境。这也是一系列错综复杂的原因导致的结果。

其中最富有传奇色彩、最令人落泪的要数西得尼•卡顿了。出场时的情况“一直看着天花板”显出他的放荡不羁,而后来我们发现他实在是一个被湮没的才子,有才而在无法溶入当时的社会。内在的情感也很高尚,最终是成全了情敌(姑且这么说,但是还没有觉得他俩的关系真的像以往故事中说的那种斗得你死我活的,恩,这里也看出他的心平气和了,或许是装的?如果是装的,那么就说明他很有才干了。真是一个够令人钦佩的人物。)。在帮助达内越狱的时候,他还是那么一幅什么都不在乎的样子,但只有他在那时心里是最清楚的,应该怎么做,不应该怎么做。昏死的达内和他的妻子,纪念他的死是天经地义的事!最后的他于他的妹妹的相遇,上刑场,安慰、鼓励他妹妹,真是一种看尽人生的超脱,小说也写了“那天晚上,巴黎城里人谈起他,说是历年上吉萝亭最平静的一个。不少人还说他表情神圣,像是先知的预言家。”这个人物的设订还是很扣人心弦的,比如在要去监狱帮达内越狱之前和洛瑞先生交代之后,“卡顿走进院子,在那儿独自呆了一会儿,仰望着她屋里的灯光。他轻声地向它祝福,道一声‘永别了’,边消失在茫茫的黑夜里。”我在看这句的时候,心里隐隐地觉得有些不对,但是又因为前文交代了卡顿要洛瑞等他的,也想不出有什么会变动的。这句就有些淡淡的伤感,想让人哭但又不让人哭出来的味道。这个就是卡顿内心的描写,轻浮浪荡的表面下藏着一颗对他人的爱而不顾献身的人的心。

反派人物特别是德发日太太,可以说是以人民的利为幌子而复仇的一个深谋老算的人物。她最平常的动作就是编织,一句话都不说,但是样样事都记在心里,记在她的毛线上;像这种人都会使人对她有一种惧怕的感觉,冰冷、毫无人情的化身。他们身边的雅克三号,复仇女等等都属于一种瞎起哄的,只觉得能从砍别人的头中得到一种快感。他们根本没有像德发日太太的那种觉悟,只是对生命的亵渎,从他们凌乱的外貌和败坏的礼仪就可以看出。对于德发日,他虽然想推翻国王,但是对于自己以前服侍过的老主人,还是有一定的隐恻之心的。他妻子也说了,要她自己动手,他丈夫“老实想救那医生一家”,可见德发日还可以算得上中立派,但事实强迫他对主人一家动手,他就是活在矛盾之中的,可能受他复仇心强烈的妻子的影响。

这本小说悬念很多,铺垫很充实,是那种越看越明白的,就像一条条小溪逐一地汇聚,最后成了奔腾的大江,使人越看越激动,越想看下去。举例,最突出的就是第二部第六章《成百的人》和第七章《侯爵老爷在城里》毫无关系,如果把第七章单独拉出来,也可以成为一本小说。直到后面才看出他是关系到达内的身世,再后来看出了关系到露西,再后来看出了他关系到老医生,最后伴随着医生的信件,复杂的人物关系一览无余,对阐述人物关系,有很好的辅助作用。无疑,最后两章是高潮,最令人激动的部分。最后兄妹的相认是超乎我想象的,作者这样安排无疑突出了卡顿,他是一种正义的象征。现在冷静下来,觉得要思考一下为何兄妹会全部关在里面的。我觉得最根本的原因就是这场大革命在作者眼力本身就是混乱的,无人权可言,疯狂的民众只按自己的意愿办事,那终究导致悲剧。

这部作品终究还是善与恶的对抗,善的胜利,令人激动地收场了。让我们深思的,复仇到底是否值得人们去做,但是德发日太太的复仇之心不是那么一日造就的,是对死去的哥哥,姐姐,父亲的回应;是阶级斗争的烙印,无可避免地形成复仇的观念,造就她冷

冰冰的性格。说到底造成这种结果,各方面都要负一定的责任,社会环境也是一个不可分割的因素。

这是一个以两百多年前的两个伟大的城市为背景的故事。浓雾弥漫,车灯摇曳不定的伦敦,绝望、颓废的巴黎的最底层。

对于当时那场发生在巴黎的轰轰烈烈的大革命,太多人花了太多的笔墨去描述它。这对法国来说是一场具有重大意义的转变,甚至对于欧洲,对于整个世界来说也是如此。作者狄更斯,是英国最杰出的现实主义批判作家之一。虽然他没有亲眼目睹,却依靠自己丰富的想象力看到的当时的景象。

《双城记》被誉为描写法国大革命的最杰出的代表作,我想最大的原因可能是因为它的与众不同。和其他的作品,比如卡莱尔的《法国大革命》不同,狄更斯更注重的是底层人民的喜怒哀乐。尽管在那个时代,这些小人物本身并不能引起世界的关注。但是作者敏锐的捕捉到这些小人物和大革命有着千丝万缕的联系,可以说法国大革命本身就是有小人物们的力量所引发的。

在这部作品里,我看到了很多很多不同的人。正直善良却惨遭迫害的马奈特医生,美丽温柔的露西,优雅高尚的查尔斯,忠厚老实的洛瑞,外表冷漠、内心热情,放荡不羁而又无私崇高的西德尼,扭曲了人性的德发奇太太,豪爽忠诚的普洛士小姐,残忍阴险的埃佛瑞蒙兄弟……复杂的仇恨纠缠不清,残忍的复仇制造了更多仇恨,爱在地狱的边缘再生,却是以生命为代价。这错综复杂的一幕幕,活生生的展现在面前,仿佛重现了那个失去理智的时代。

作为一个优秀的作家,在狄更斯的作品里,语言的精彩是必不可少的。各种修辞手法,比喻、夸张、对比、幽默、嘲讽,被运用自如,而作品的艺术性也被送上巅峰。“……于是,克伦彻先生只得再听检察长先生怎样把史蒂夫先生套在陪审团先生们身上的紧身衣又一件件脱下来,翻个底朝天;……最后法官大人站了起来,把那件紧身衣里里外外捣腾了一遍,看得出来,他想为犯人裁剪寿衣。……”诸如此类精彩的段落,作品里比比皆是。于是,作者想要表达的每一个中心,都被体现得淋漓尽致了。我相信这对我们平时的学习,必定是大有帮助的。

有人说,《双城记》是描写了两个男人和一个女人的故事,我却觉得,这样说的人必定没有了解作者真正想表达的意图。如果只是表达了这个,任何一部作品都可以达到露西和查尔斯的水准,那么《双城记》的优势怎么体现出来呢?在我看来,德发奇一家和法国贵族的仇恨也好,露西、查尔斯和西德尼的感情问题也好,都是为了体现一个共同的主题而设的。这个主题就是剖析这场大革命与民众之间的关系,看到底是什么引发了这场革命,到底这场血雨腥风给人们带来了什么。我想这才是作者想要表达的重心所在。
