这是一部享誉世界的经典名著,描写的是一个维多利亚时期的纯洁的女子被玷污的性道德问题。作者托马斯.哈代把一个失身的女子写成是一个“纯洁的”女人。小说的伟大之处不仅在于哈代能够成功地复制出现实的丑恶,而且在于作为一个男性作家能够超越传统的男性视野,为女性伸张正义,把自己的犀利笔触直指维多利亚时代的性道德标准。小说中的苔丝就是这种龌龊的发人深省的性道德的牺牲品,让人为之怜悯。 This is a world class classic, portraying a sexual morality that blemishes a pure Victorian girl. The author Thomas Hardy writes a woman who was laid off as a “pure” woman. The greatness of the novel is not only that Hardy succeeds in reproducing the real ugly, but also that as a male writer, he can transcend the traditional male perspective, apply justice to women and direct his sharp brushstrokes to sexual moral standards in the Victorian era. Tess in the novel is the shameful and thought-provoking sexuality of the victims, people have compassion.
