《苔丝》英文读后感

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.

Jane Eyre·Charlotte Bronte

苔丝-读后感 篇4

寒假期间我看了《德伯家的苔丝》这本小说，它被称为英国文学和世界文学的瑰宝，其作者是英国伟大的批判现实主义作家，托马斯．哈代，被誉为“一个耸立在维多利亚时代和新时代交界线上的忧郁形象”。

《苔丝》写的是社会如何把一个纯洁、质朴、正直、刻苦、聪明、美丽的农村姑娘逼得走投无路，终于杀人的故事。她以不同的艺术形象成就了一个悲剧，冗长的故事也因为这个悲剧的成功成为了许多人们心中的痛。它的情节似乎有点老套，但却深刻反映了古老的宗法制农村在资本主义势力侵蚀下瓦解的悲剧。

试想如果没有开头那个牧师的几句话，也许可怜的苔丝会是另一番生活，然而，十六岁的乡村女孩苔丝的悲剧就从这里开始了。苔丝愚蠢的父亲忽然知道自己是一个大贵族的后裔，就在算计着怎么才能享受贵族的生活就逼着苔丝去认亲，结果天真的苔丝遇上了毁了他一生的那人——亚雷。他夺去了苔丝所有的梦想，以及追梦的能力，夺去苔丝纯真的渴望。在苔丝身上，自始至终看到的是她纯洁本性对逼迫她的力量的苦苦挣扎。她是美丽的乡村姑娘，虽然有着贵族血统却依然纯朴。美，不是一种外表，而是内心高雅纯洁的表现。她的纯洁就像蓝天一样，虽然偶而会被乌云遮住，可是当乌云散去，世界上最纯净透明的依然是蓝天。

苔丝是坚强的，乐观的，她的命运却不可逆转。即使再多给苔丝几次选择，我相信她最终仍然会走老路，除非安玑克莱没有抛弃她远走他乡。关于社会的悲剧，家庭的悲剧，人性的悲剧已有很多定论。苔丝和克莱两个人吃尽了苦头，绕了一大圈又回到了原点，只是物是人非，苔丝选择了死亡来成全他们美好的爱情。终究到底是一场空。苔丝喜欢克莱，并把克莱当成他生存的全部源泉，甚至可以说他就是她的救命稻草，所以她的全部意念都是存在这样一个人物身上，而面对现实爱情是多么苍白无力啊，美貌与高贵的血统，也许是战利品，但不是武器。也许苔丝，她，真的是太天真了。

《苔丝》读后感 篇5

可怜的受伤的名字!我的胸膛将是供你养息的眠床。

故事发生在英格兰南部的德瑟特，讲述处在维多利亚时代的了一个纯洁女人苔丝在虚伪的社会中受尽社会的道德挑战。在社会的种种压迫下绝望的她铸成大错，最终在一个静谧的黎明为自己的生命画上了一个充满悲情的句号。

苔丝的父亲约翰・德伯是一个贫穷的乡村小贩，他异想天开地想要自己的大女儿苔丝去认“本家”――一个从北方迁来冒充世家的暴发户，而这家的大儿子亚雷克・德伯更是玷污了苔丝的清白。这是对一个农村姑娘的最大伤害，也反映了当时金钱至上、世家至尊的恶劣社会风气，是统治者对被统治者的压迫，在这个工业资本占领农村的时代里，农村生活艰苦困难，农村人民只能沦为雇佣劳动者。作者哈代对苔丝的悲剧和不幸充满同情和惋惜之情。

苔丝虔诚地信仰上帝，可是哪儿是她一心信仰的上帝呢?哪儿是保护苔丝的天使呢?

一个旧社会中处于被统治阶级的弱小分子，受到旧道德和宿命论思想的深刻影响，苔丝对自己的悲剧始终怀着一种“我的命为什么这样苦?”“一切都是命中注定的。”的想法，在困境中多次忍让，一生短暂孤苦。她在最美的年华被夺去最珍贵的贞洁;“不正经的女人”后来成了她的代名词;孩子的早夭是对作为母亲的苔丝的最绝情的剥夺。这样的伤害使她最终背井离乡，离开了这个让她伤心欲绝的地方。

后来她遇到了安琪・克莱尔，却因为在新婚之夜坦诚了自己的污点而与幸福失之交臂。丈夫的决然离开、家庭的悲惨变故和亚雷克的死缠烂打就像是上帝的一个个恶作剧，并使得苔丝不得不为了母亲和弟弟妹妹们的生计而出卖了自己的身体。安琪在收到苔丝的朋友们的信之后匆匆赶了回来却发现苔丝已经受尽折磨。在折磨和绝望中苔丝杀死了亚雷克。最终，带着忏悔之意的安琪在苔丝被处以绞刑之后依照妻子的意愿，带着苔丝心中的不甘，决定与苔丝的妹妹丽莎开始新的生活。

苔丝，这一个可怜的受伤的名字，让我感受到了她的绝望，绝望是在当时资本主义社会中一个不能够自主自己的命运的悲剧;让我感受到了她的不甘，不甘是处于绝望中被压迫得只能够接受的悲剧;让我感受到了她的痛心，痛心是一次次被剥夺触手可得的幸福的悲剧。这部一百多年前写下的小说对于我们的意义在于启发我们思考人生的各种问题，通过对苔丝的悲剧警醒我们要时刻反省自己。在压迫中的我们能够做些什么呢?在困境中我们能坚持下去吗?

正如苏联文学批评家阿尼克斯特所说：“苔丝招致毁灭的真正原因是属于现实的性质，女主人公的贫苦和无依无靠，社会上盛行的社会风习，这些情况都决定了这个女子的悲惨命运。”正是因为苔丝的贫苦和孤独，造就了她悲惨的一生。她很善良，可是上帝却没有爱护怜惜她，让她一次次地遭受苦难。是什么使得她坠入社会的深渊?不是因为命运，而是因为社会的不公，上层统治者的压迫。在面对困难时，我们能否摆脱不自觉的软弱?能否走向勇敢?能否走向成熟?能否毅然反抗?

苔丝读后感 篇6

读罢，不仅仅深深为苔丝叹息。在那个所谓的“礼貌社会”中，善良的人惨遭伤害，而犯下恶行的人却能够逍遥法外，最终结果是造就一个纯洁无辜的社会的牺牲者。

这是否是那个时代的使然?可我同时也为苔丝的感情感到不平，为克莱尔的懦弱和决绝深感痛弃!世俗的偏见至今也是存在的，但是如果苔丝能够生活在如今的`时代，那么她的遭遇会不会好一些?这个实在是未知。

哈代用诗一般的文笔描述出了一个敢于大胆追求和争取爱的权利的女性，在她身上闪烁着敢于冲破旧礼教的一切束缚的反抗精神。她坚忍的承受着生活对她的一连串沉重的打击，在艰难困苦中从不祈求神灵，从不向邪恶势力屈服。这是我佩服因苔丝的地方。

但是，她的反抗精神也是很不彻底的，也有顺从命运安排的一面，有以自我牺牲为态度去理解一切的时候。正因把自己的期望和幸福全部维系在克莱尔的感情上，因此导致了个人反抗的失败和个人追求的破灭。

在这本书中，我还要赞叹哈代，正因他不仅仅将苔丝这个人物最生动的体现了出来，在塑造其他人物时，像是描述亚雷克成为传教士后再次坠落的过程的这一讽刺，作为对立面来突出苔丝的纯洁与善良;透过对克莱尔自私行为的讲述，来反衬出苔丝对感情的不顾一切，这种细腻的手法着实珍重。

《苔丝》读后感600字 篇7

人生最大的痛苦不是身体的巨的劳累而是失去精神支柱后的心力憔悴。有时特别愤恨他的冷漠无情。在天真纯洁的她对他暴有莫大希望而向他袒白时，他却冷冷的说了句：“爱的不是你，而是具有你形象的另一女人。”自己本来就不是完美无暇，凭什么以完美主义标准去要求别人呢？装清高！

她说过，自从结婚后，每一个念头，每一次眼神要忠于他变成了她的宗教。她好傻。只要他原谅，她宁愿做他的奴隶。如果分别之际，她表现的悲怆痛苦，也许他就会心慈手软，回来吻她，这是他后来自己说的。但是她太爱他了以至于什么也没说，她故作坚强只是想让他不那么为难，轻松离去。这是爱的极至，胜过于什么天荒地老、海枯石烂。然而他却曲解了这份神圣的爱，依然把她当作骗子，抛弃她扬长而去。她爱他百分百，他对她的爱却不是赤裸裸的，不是完整的。

后来他懂了，回来了，但是为时已晚。她为他把那个她万分愤恨但又不得不屈服的人杀了。俩人逃跑，但是她注定就是个悲剧。但她死而无憾，因为他终究原谅了她。

《德伯家的苔丝》读后感 篇8

暖人的友情!

喜欢哈代的抒情诗，其中不乏情节生动，语句隽永的作品。《德伯家的苔丝》是哈代最着名的长篇小说之一。这是个美丽凄凉的爱情故事。当我合上书，苔丝对克莱尔忠贞的爱情故事确实令我感动，但令我温暖的是和苔丝一起挤牛奶的3个可爱少女伊丝、玛丽安与雷蒂。她们也同苔丝一样深深爱着那个英俊少年克莱尔，但也深知克莱尔只爱苔丝，于是就把爱恋深深地埋在心里，而把祝福送给他们。我喜欢她们三个的纯洁的友谊和坦率的言行。就是在克莱尔无情地抛弃苔丝时，善良的伊丝也没落井下石，与克莱尔有过一段话：

“你非常非常爱我，伊丝?”克莱尔问到。

“是的我非常爱你，我一直都爱着你!”

“比苔丝更爱我吗?”

“不!”伊丝摇摇头低声说，“不如她爱你!”

“这话怎么说呢?”

“没有人比苔丝更爱你了。”

“因为她可以为你去死，而我无法做的。”

读到这里我心中一阵激动，我仿佛看到一个高尚的灵魂，左右了她那质朴敦厚的天性，这真是一个真正善良、真心待人的好姑娘呀，真令人感动。在苔丝回到娘家又身无分文时，因为失恋而酗酒的玛丽安又帮她找到了一份工作，使苔丝的生活又有了一丝光亮。在那些阴霾的日子中，温暖着苔丝冰冷的心的依然是这份暖人的友情……

苔丝是不幸的，她的父母为了所谓的家庭荣耀，而让她去攀亲，而毁了自己。她最爱的人又无情地抛弃她，而她又是幸运的，在她短暂的一生中，在她遭遇爱情抛弃时，不离不弃的是那份温暖的友情。

德伯家的苔丝读后感 篇9

Tess of The D’urbervilles

At first, I want to talk about Thomas Hardy.He was an English author of crossing two century.New industrialization was impact on ancient area in that century.There was a variety of contradiction.So I could watch Tess of the D’urbeivilles which was touched our heart of novel.Tess Durbeyfield was a pure and simple country girl.Tess asked for going to the family of Alec D’urbervilles when her parents knew themselves to be a direct descendant of noble family of D’urbervilles.Tess met Alec who was attracted by her.After a long premeditation, Tess was lost girlish purity.And from that time, Tess’s life was to be completely changed.She had a baby, but nobody gave the baby baptism.The next day, the baby dead and Tess was buried the child by herself.She had suffered, and hope of finding a place with no memories.Then, she looked hard for work away from home.Tess was to be a milkmaid in dairy barn.Meanwhile, she met and fell in love with Angel Clare.I thought Tess would gained happiness of life, and even better than we can imagined.But life is forever unknown.After the wedding, Tess and Angel confessed their past to each other.Tess forgave Angel for his past.On the contrary, Angel could not forgive Tess having a child with another man.He thought Tess cheated him and she was not a pure girl.Angel ran away from her.Tess went through hardship again, maybe the right man to love hardly ever comes at the right time for loving in life.Tess met Alec again when she sought a job.She get entangled by Alec who wear black parson’s clothes.Tess resented Alec but had to live together.Alec helped her family avoid poor life.However, Angel had regretted his behavior to ask for the pardon of Tess.So Tess thought that Alec tricked her and led to the source of his suffering.Unfortunately, she killed the man and had happy life with Angel for seven days.Then polices asked Tess away.After I reading the novel, I can’t help meditating who led to this tragedy.Tess was a beautiful and pure girl;she yearned for a truth and kindness of life, but suffered from hypocrisy.Although she lost her virginity, she still looked forward to love.Tess was braved enough to challenge fate, but still suffered the abandon of so-call rules.Finally, she had to become a murder.Why would appear this kind of situation? It is truth that her parents more love money than her or her husband’s selfish and mistrust even Alec had evil intentions.What’s more, there was hypocritical religion and morality in this country.Tess was really fallen girl? No , she was a pure person.The kind and unyielding Tess is a beam of light in the dark country.Angel was an open-minded intellectual.Although he born in a pastor’s family, he did not want to be a pastor who served god, and more willing to engage family.Angel despised class bias and hierarchical.But it was such a person, didn’t trust Tess and even ran away from her.In his eyes, Tess was a nature baby and a symbol of purity.As he knew the truth, he did not understand Tess.I don’t know if Angel really loved Tess, or his deep-rooted thought gave rise to their tragedy.Of course, it’s worth to forgive Angel when he began to push over decayed thought and accepted his wife.It is so pity.I have guessed that if Angel has not abandoned her, all things may be totally different.Although he regretted his action, but it was too late so that he lost Tess forever.Never have such a kind girl loving him.Love should accept the past of another, no matter how bad it is.You should not mind if she or he makes mistakes.Because everyone have the past, you are supposed to understand and accept her or his mistakes if you really love another.And if love have not tolerance, it means that the love id dangerous and will be end.In addition, Tess of D’urbervilles reflects the most severe of issue in the prevailing society.It’s uncovered the hypocritical moralizing, mental slavery, emphasis on chastity, inferior women’s position.The novel also is a powerful criticism of the hypocritical moral values in that age.Thus Tess’s tragedy is not only a result of the contemporary, but also represents the tragic contemporary society.You should read the novel.You will cherish yourself life after finishing it.After all, I feel ourselves to be much happier and much better off than Tess.

《德伯家的苔丝》读后感.doc 篇10

关键词：苦难、无奈、牺牲品、悲剧、道德、男权

正文：

“我过去是牺牲品，就永远是牺牲品——这就是规律！”在燧石山农场苔丝又一次遇到阿历克时无奈、绝望地喊出这么一句话。作为封建社会的底层农民阶级又是个妇女，她权利无几，却又处处受伤。

在官方说法中《德伯家的苔丝》描写的是威塞克斯破产农民的前途和命运。这点的确不可否认，以苔丝一家在父亲死后全家被逐离且无处可去的困境，以苔丝个人被阿历克伤害、因非己之过被克莱尔抛弃、在燧石山农场被农场主欺负以及最后以死亡收场的悲剧命运，体现了威塞克斯破产农民的无望、孤苦渺茫的前途和悲苦、注定被牺牲、抛弃的命运。苔丝一家正是这苦难的破产农民的缩影。

然而，我从《苔丝》这本书中看到的更多的是女性在男权社会下的苦难与无奈。

在当时社会，苔丝算是一个比较富有思想、善于思考的女性。如在第十三章有那么一句“有时候，她的离奇幻想会强化周围的自然程序，直到它们似乎变成她的历史中的一部分，它们岂止是变成她的历史的一部分，简直就是她自己的历史，因为世界只是一种心理现象，表面上看起来像什么，它实际上就是什么。”

正因她爱思考，才会多幻想。同时她也是一个纯粹的唯心主义者，她在奶牛场时“对于她来说，整个世界的存在全凭她的感觉，所有的生物的存在也全凭她的存在。对于苔丝，宇宙本身的诞生，就是在她降生的某一年中的某一天里诞生的。”。正因如此苔丝更显天真、活泼，对于这个世界充满着无限的热爱，即使在受了那样的耻辱后，走向牛奶场时仍能“精神奇妙地振作起来。迎着温柔的南风，她一路跳跃着向前走去，她的希望同阳光融合在一起，似乎幻化成一道环绕着她的光环”，甚至在一声鸟的啼鸣里“也似乎潜藏着欢愉”。

不过她的思考也给她自己带来了诸多困扰，在克莱尔想教她历史时，她回答说“除了我已经知道的东西以外，就不想知道更多的东西了”、“知道了又怎么样呢，只不过是一长串人中的一个，只不过发现某本古书中有一个和我一样的人，只不过知道我要扮演他的角色，让我难过而已”、“我倒想学一学为什么——为什么太阳都同样照耀好人和坏人？不过那是书本里不会讲的”。

然而如此善良、美丽而又聪慧的苔丝，仍逃脱不开被牺牲的厄运，在传统封建男权社会中仍要经历着苦难，却无力反抗。

首先是苔丝的父母一心想“认亲”，却将苔丝推入阿历克的“虎口”，这是苔丝悲剧命运的开始。是阿历克让她失贞，让她在众人面前抬不起头，让她只敢在傍晚出门，让她害怕人类：“她知道怎样抓住傍晚时分极短的那个时刻。那时候，光明和黑暗恰到好处地得到平衡，白昼的拘束和黑夜的紧张相互得到中和，留下来的是心灵上的绝对自由，只有在那个时候，活着的苦恼才被减到最小的可能程度。她并不害怕黑夜，她唯一的念头就是避开人类——或者不如说是被称作世界的冷酷的生命群体。”。

接下来，虽然在奶牛场苔丝重获新生，却又被克莱尔抛弃。苔丝能宽恕他的放荡，他却无法原谅苔丝的非出于己意的失贞，甚至说“我以前一直爱的那个人不是你，是和你一模一样的另外一个女人”。而这主要是因为克莱尔头脑中的传统道德评价。在传统社会，男人可以放荡，女人却必须对男人绝对忠贞。这不仅仅只是苔丝的悲剧，更是诸多在此种社会背景下的群体女性的悲剧——封建男权体制传统道德思想体系下的牺牲品。

后来是在燧石山农场，苔丝在哪里不仅受农场主的折磨，还有阿历克的纠缠不休。就是在那里，在阿历克再次找苔丝时，苔丝在用手套甩了他一掌后，绝望地喊出：“我过去是牺牲品，就永远是牺牲品——这就是规律！”。阿历克这个苔丝一生灾难的开端，如今却可以皈依宗教，她却因他被丈夫抛弃，受尽苦难，“他本是给她带来祸根的人，现在却站在了神灵那一边，而她本是受害的人，现在灵魂却还没有得到新生”。

最后，苔丝苦难的一生以死亡收场。虽然克莱尔最后宽恕了她，但，就如苔丝在他们再次见面是说的那样“太晚了”，苔丝无法原谅那个再次被阿历克欺骗的自己。但为了与克莱尔团圆，她选择杀了阿历克。她这一悲壮的反抗，仍逃不开被处罚的命运。从始至终，牺牲的都是苔丝……

书中有一句话，形象地表现了一群像苔丝一样在男权社会传统道德思想压迫下的女性的无奈与绝望：“她用眼睛看着他说，那目光就像是一只被人抓住的麻雀，感到绝望又不能反抗，只好等着抓住它的人拧断脖子。”。

“我过去是牺牲品，就永远是牺牲品——这就是规律！”

这就是传统道德约束的男权社会的规律，这就是群体女性的悲剧……
