法国大革命是人类史上一个血的印记。在那个混乱的时代,充满不确定;在这种无秩序的状态下,人性的一切表露无疑。双城记以法国大革命为背景,透过为族与平民之间的仇恨冲突,作者狄更斯只想传达出---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正因鲜血而愈合,平民对贵族的仇恨也无法替代对已逝亲人的爱。

故事中,梅尼特医生从监狱中重获自由和女儿一齐到伦敦生活。五年后,他们在法庭上为名叫查尔斯?代尔那的法国青年做证,露西和代尔那因相爱而结婚。1792年,法国大革命爆发,故事场景转至法国。代尔那因身为贵族后裔而遭逮捕并判死刑,在千钧一发的时刻,一向爱恋露西的英国青年西得尼?卡登替他上了断头台。

卡登是书中最富魅力亦最复杂的主角之一。颓废、消极,求学时,他只替同学写作业;出社会后,即使拥有一身才华,它仍然选取为另一名律师工作。但是,在他冷漠的外表下,有著深深的温柔。凭这一斛温柔和对露西的爱,卡登做了一个好处重大的决定---代替代尔那上断头台---用自己的生命换回另一个人的性命,换回一个家庭的幸福和笑颜。这是卡登守护露西的表现,为爱而牺牲,这在那个大时代、甚至现代,是多?高贵的举动!

相较於代表的温柔和爱,多法石太太则是杀戮和血腥的象徵。由於亲人惨死在代尔那的父亲和叔叔的魔掌下,她终其一生为仇恨而活;为置代尔那一家於死地,无所不用其极,最后终於让自己死於擦枪走火的意外。多法石太太的嗜血固然使人不寒而栗,但也叫人不禁感叹恨的力量,将本该快乐幸福的女生塑造成复仇女神。十八世纪末的法国,被这种执拗复仇的火焰燃烧成阿修罗地狱。

教训和好处不能正因岁月而被遗忘。如果我们无法从其中获得一些什?,相同的杯具依旧会重演。两百年后的这天,期望活在这个世代的我们能创造出真正平等、自由、博爱的新世纪。

卡登的死,就像一支羽毛轻柔的飘落水面,没有水花,却有一个个涟漪,提醒人们:真正的自由平等无法用断头台建立。有一天,世界会变得更好,就像卡登临死前看见的世界,那不是天堂的幻影;有一天,那会是我们的世界。

品不一样的人生

爱情在生与死的悬崖边上徘徊,而死亡则是解决最终爱情的唯一方法。

“这是最美的时代,也是最糟糕的时代;这是智慧的年代,也是愚昧的年代;这是信仰的时期,也是怀疑的时期;这是光明的季节,也是黑暗的季节。”这是书中我认为最经典、最有分量的语句。

英国著名作家狄更斯为我们讲述了在这样复杂的时代背景下1个感人的爱情故事。

卡顿,这个故事中的1个男主角。他深爱着女主人公露西,然而露西有1个深爱着的而且对方也深爱着露西的爱人--达尔内。对此,他选择了放弃,用宽容来成全他们的爱。

书中,他在每个喝醉了酒的夜晚,晃悠到露西他们所在的街角。清冷的月色下,唯有街道两旁的影子与他相伴--坐在那儿,就那样望着那栋房子。不知何时,晨曦的第一缕光已洒向不远处教堂的顶端。

“复活在我,生命也在我,信仰我的人虽然死了,也必复活,凡活着信仰我的人,必永远不死。”书中,道路悄然,夜色渐浓,《圣经》的词句拌和着他脚步的回音,在空中回荡。由于达内尔家族的关系,法国大革命后的他将要被群情激愤的广大人民送上断头台。卡顿为了爱情,毅然决定用自己酷似达内尔的长相去换回达内尔的生命。

塞纳河岸依旧,水浪怒涌着,扑向岸边,打起一串串水珠,而后转瞬退去。新生还是死亡?在这个最好也最坏的时代,一切都是未知的。

在即将踏上断头台的那一刹那,他看见露西:抱着那个以他来命名的孩子在多年以后,和达尔内在一起,达内尔向这个孩子讲述着他的故事。长大成人的孩子在这条路上奋勇前进……

他满足地笑了:因为他现在所做的比所做过的一切都要好;他将要到1个比他所知道的还要好的地方去好好休息!

卡顿为了爱情,选择了牺牲。然而不知道为什么,在我的身边和许多的影视作品中,人们在爱情的道路上往往都是自私的。难道,看着自己爱的人幸福不是1种幸福吗?

道路悄然,夜色渐浓,泰戈尔的那句话似乎又在吟唱,自心底升起:“让死者有那不朽的名,让生者有那不朽的爱。”

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。

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。

那是最美好的时代,那是最糟糕的时代;那是智慧的年头,那是愚昧的年头;那是信仰的时期,那是怀疑的时期;那是光明的季节,那是黑暗的季节;那是希望的春天,那是失望的冬天;我们全都在直奔天堂,我们全都在直奔相反的方向--简而言之,那时跟现在非常相象,某些最喧嚣的权威坚持要用形容词的最高级来形容它。说它好,是最高级的;说它不好,也是最高级的。

这是整本书的开头第一章,将全书的基调定上了悲剧色彩,然而就在这矛盾的时代中,也确实存在过光明。

这本书叙述了法国大革命时期围绕在医生马奈特一家周围的事,这本书颠覆了我对自由,权利以及善恶的看法——法国人民不堪重负,推翻了波旁王朝,然而新政权建立之后朝他们走来的难道是他们心驰神往的自由吗?不,仍然是以往的提心吊胆,稍不留神明天就会被送上断头台。得势之后的德发日太太滥用 职权,将死敌们个个置于死地,最后却落得个惨死的下常正如那句话所说的:“自由啊,有多少罪恶是假借你的名义干出来的。”大革命并不如想象中的那么美好,而是以暴易暴。它没有拯救人民,而是将人民推入了另一个火坑。

再来看看另外一位大革命的牺牲品——达内,革命前,他放弃了国内的家业,只身来到英国谋生,在他看来,压迫人民是一件极不人道的事,然而,革命爆发后,他反而无辜地成为人民的敌人,人们不分青红皂白地要将他领上断头台。不过相信在九死一生之后,他依然是原先那个善良的达内。而卡顿——一个才华横溢却自甘堕落的律师,他与达内有着相同的长相,却有着不同的命运,在面对活着还是让自己心爱的人得到幸福的抉择时,毅然决然的选择了后者,在他看来,生命在爱的面前是微不足道的,即使在断头台上,他也表现出了令人难以想象的沉着冷静。因为在他的心底,一直有一个信念在支持他:“耶稣说,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。”他用死完成了自我救赎,他用死来反抗虚伪的革命者,他用死来诠释露丝的爱。生命,成了他最后的武器,爱,成了他唯一。

法国大革命是人类史上一个血的印记。在那个混乱的时代,充满不确定;在这种无秩序的状态下,人性的一切表露无疑。双城记以法国大革命为背景,透过为族与平民之间的仇恨冲突,作者狄更斯只想传达出---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。

时代可以改变一个人的一生,我们现在所生活得太平盛世已经不太太平了,我们必须努力学习,学到更多的东西,将来才能更好的保护家人,守护国家!

篇5:瓦尔登湖读后感英文

一百六十多年前的1845年7月4日美国独立日这天,一个哈佛大学的28岁的毕业生亨利•梭罗独自一人来到距康科德两英里的瓦尔登湖畔,搭一间小木屋,自食其力,开始了他隐居山林的简朴生活。他自己劳作耕种,不于外界发生任何关系,除了必须的劳动,他的剩余时间就用来观察自然,思考问题,分析生活,评断价值,批判习俗,探求怎样实实在在的生活,怎样体验与经历有意义的生活。两年零两个月又两天后,他回到文明世界,为我们留下了一本宁静、恬淡、充满智慧的书——《瓦尔登湖》。

选择在一个寂寞的黄昏,独自一人,翻开《瓦尔登湖》。时光如一江春水,在窗下翻书的沙沙声里流过,流入瓦尔登湖。读《瓦尔登湖》,我们可以听得见蛙声和鸟啼,看得见湖水的波纹和林中的雾霭,处处蕴含着返璞归真的美丽。他记录了观察与体验大自然的详细情况,为其赋予了通俗的哲学意义,这正是梭罗超越众人所拥有的一切所在。反观如今,充斥着追名逐利、物质要求的时代,恐怕难以找到如此沉淀,专心体味生活意义的仙露琼浆了,让人们的心灵从沉重的物质中解脱出来,回归瓦尔登湖畔那种恬淡、宁静的状态,呼吸自由的空气,体味什么是真正的生活,那些唤醒了我们沉睡的旧梦。

读罢此书,我脑海中隐隐出现了一个头戴草帽、短褐穿结、带月荷锄的人——陶潜

梭罗和元亮兄竟真有些相似,两人都因厌恶世俗的追名逐利,厌恶趋炎附势的污浊世风而隐居,都好自然、乐山水、爱流年,梭罗也曾在瓦尔登湖畔“种豆南山下”,两人唯一的不同大概就是隐居时间了,梭罗只隐了两年多,而陶渊明却是藏了半辈子。

其实不在于时间,时间只是人们想象与虚构的产物罢了。重要的是心,隐居只是一种方式,而在心中留一片“瓦尔登”才是最具意义的。

淡泊人生——读《瓦尔登湖》后感

淡泊以明志,宁静以致远。

——题记

轻叩一本名着,细细地与梭罗促膝谈心;翻开一卷墨香,轻轻地聆听瓦尔登湖弹奏的梵歌。

回归自然的纯洁,回归淡泊的境界。我,作为一名浮躁的都市人,有幸拜读这由贵州人民出版社出版的《瓦尔登湖》,为我除去那躁动的灰尘,披上那自然的清新。

白居易曾说:“水能性淡为吾友,竹能心虚即我师。”这恰似这坐落在康科德的小木屋,梭罗就是在那里进行了两年两个月又两天的独居生活。他记录从春到冬的这一轮的风景,他的超验主义实践建立了一种与现代物质生活日益丰富对立的简朴方式,还原生活的原始状态。

真的很难想象,梭罗是如何生活下去,他将自己放在一个杳无人烟的地方,他拥有的只有一个简陋的小木屋,一张小小的床,一张普通的书桌和一些零落的稿纸,仅仅只有简单的陈设,仅仅只是他执着的信念,仅仅凭借着人对自然的欲望和热爱,他,完成了这伟大的实践,完成了这对自然的追求,完成了这本杰作,这不得不让后人称他为“自然随笔的创始者”。

淡泊是人生的一种至高的境界。当时正处于工业时代,物质的优越并没有让梭罗迷失,随波逐流,他曾在《经济》中写到:

“……人最完美的部分,不久也会被梨入土壤,化作粪肥……”

将所谓的经济与自然对立,当人们奢侈地享受生活时,却忘记这浮华世界背后的陷阱,难道就不怕醒来之后会是一场噩梦?似乎从原始时代开始,那些能够被称得上是“智慧”的东西早已被这社会的发展所抛弃,人们对于自然只剩下贪婪,总是渴望获得什么,有时像是一个无底深渊,永无止境。

梭罗总爱引用,记忆中影响最深的就是罗利的英译对句:

“既然人人乐道肉身本具顽石性,慈善心肠何能不将烦恼痛苦忍。”

带着讽刺去批判着人类的盲目,带着幽默去痛斥人类的无为。对于人,他的信仰除了所谓的上帝就是那些所谓的统治阶级,这对生活在基层的人民而言,生来位卑,他们活着就像一部机器,为了不让自己在劳动市场上贬值,抛弃了气概,抛弃了自尊。是的,他们的劳动力升值了,可悲哀的是他们的智慧却在贬值,难道这就是“安逸者”?这正如梭罗所言:“你刚走出了失望之城,又走进绝望之乡。”

上帝没有赋予任何人任何权力,自然自有它的公道。你,生来未带一草一木,死后又不带走一缕一线。奴隶的生涯终究是由失望垒成的城堡,有的甚至是由绝望筑成的荒墓,与其这样,为何不摒弃这些浮躁,还灵魂一份通透,回归自然的宁静呢?设想一下,当你应对这博大的自然,它给予你的是新鲜的空气,甜美的果实,突然间,你是否感觉自己成为了天真浪漫的孩童,不知疲惫地奔逐在它的怀抱里。

这些如水晶般的思想,梭罗还记录了很多很多,终点就是起点,四季的轮回正是生命的苏醒沉睡,这些文字就像是一杯温水,让人沉浸,心灵正被一点一点洗涤,灵魂正被一点一点安静。

淡泊是智者的动力,像是一把折扇,送来徐徐清风,拂去一片焦虑;又像是一面镜子,照清娇容的面貌,看清人性的本质;还像是一首诗词,念时如痴如醉,回味时百感交集。

月下共饮,湖边共赏。邀君在这片湖水前共冥,邀君在这份淡泊中共寻那份静谧!

+ 加入清单

一边读《瓦尔登湖》,会一边在脑海里刻画梭罗的样子:一双深邃的眸子,坚毅的面孔,沧桑的胡子。不禁会好奇,生命中怎样的经历,造就了这样深刻的一个人?

梭罗的一生是寂寞的,而自己似乎又对这寂寞乐在其中。梭罗曾说:“我喜欢独处。我从没遇到过比孤独更好的伴侣”。1845年3月,他借了一把斧头,孤身一人,跑进了无人居住的瓦尔登湖边的山林中,自己砍材,在瓦尔登湖畔建造了一个小木屋,并在小木屋住了两年零两个月又两天的时间。来到瓦尔登湖畔之后,他认为找到了一种理想的生活模式。在这两年多的时间里,梭罗自食其力,完全靠自己的双手过了一段原始简朴的生活。1847年回到康科德城。1848年,住在爱默生家里。此后他患了肺病,于1862年病逝于康科德城,年仅45岁。他笔下的《瓦尔登湖》正如他一般,也是寂寞而享受寂寞的。自1854年出世,它不仅没有引起大众的注意,甚至连一些本来应该亲近它的人也不理解,对之冷落甚或讥评。它似乎永远不会引起轰动和喧嚣,它始终默然地等待了一个世纪,依然不倦怠的孤独的不紧不慢的对每一个读者叙说着一个男人在湖畔寂寞的光阴。

梭罗的一生是恬静的。他安然的沉思在瓦尔登湖春日生机盎然的晨光中,漫步在夏天湖畔虫声嘤嘤的小道上,记录下秋日里的落英缤纷、天高气爽,描绘出冬季雪花坠落的轨迹和冰晶的形状?他就这样“活过每一个季节;呼吸空气,喝水,品尝水果,让自己感受它们对你的影响”。《瓦尔登湖》记载着他在小木屋中度过的每一个恬淡、安详而简单的日子,文字如美梦中的呼吸一般轻盈,淡淡的味道让人心旷神怡,似乎是在安慰那些失神于世俗中的人们:“我虽不富甲天下,却拥有无数个艳阳天和夏日”。

梭罗的一生是智慧的。隐逸的生活中,梭罗总沉心思索。对现代科技文明给人们带来的物质享受,梭罗并不排斥,只是批评我们没有很好地利用它,“弄巧成拙”,他这样评价。“我们接通了越洋的电缆,却用它询问阿德莱德王妃是否得了咳喘,并未用它交流人类的思想。我们建成了铁路,却坐着它去城里消磨时光。”但是,梭罗对社会的意义并非仅仅在于批判,而更在于指导。对社会中存在的问题他会毫不犹豫地揭露,同时也负责任地指出解决问题的方法。如果我们发现自己根本无法抵御今天这个纷繁复杂的物质世界的引诱,那么最好的办法就是简朴。客观世界和人类社会是复杂的,但我们的知识使我们能够选择一种正确的生活方式,而且有足够的勇气将其他多余的东西摒弃,全然不顾同时代人如何对我们指手画脚。《瓦尔登湖》中不乏分析生活,批判习俗处,见解独特,耐人寻味。它是一部蕴含了深刻哲理的散文。细细读过《瓦尔登湖》的人都有体会,人们应该探求怎样实实在在的生活,怎样体验与经历有意义的生活。

梭罗短暂的一生中,都试图鼓励人们要简化生活,将时间腾出来深入生命,品味人生。他通过自己的生活实验,告诉世人不要被繁纷复杂的生活所迷惑,从而失去了生活的方向和意义。他认为:假如人们能过宇宙法则规定的简朴生活,就不会有那么的焦虑来扰乱内心的宁静。时至今日,在物欲横流的大千社会中,人们开始迷失和彷徨,梭罗精神变得更加珍贵和重要。一部《瓦尔登湖》中凝结的感悟与体会,值得用一生去参悟和实践。如何寻觅内心的平和与从容,如何感受寂寞中的快乐,如何从杂乱的人际网中脱身,重新审视自己,也许从《瓦尔登湖》中,你会得到启发。

瓦尔登湖已不单是那一片湖,那些在生活中感悟真谛,追寻简单的人们梦中,都有不一样的“瓦尔登”。正如梭罗所说:“一本真正的好书教给我的远不止只是阅读它。我必须很快将它放在一边,然后按照它来生活。我始于阅读,终于行动”。相信我们都会到达梦中的瓦尔登。

大自然既能适应我们的长处,也能适应我们的弱点——题记

我认为梭罗在这本书中写出了他对瓦尔登湖的理解与对人生的思考。梭罗写了湖边的森林的浓郁、苍翠;写了湖上的鸟叫声的甜美、高亢;写了潜水鸟的活泼与调皮,写了松鼠以及各种动物种种可爱的动作。

我认为梭罗写了人们的贫穷不是别人不施舍或政府不救济,更不是自己在本来的工作上不努力,而是没有换一个角度思考自己的生活和工作。伟大的人用简单而富裕的方式生活着,并给自己留下闲暇时间,以用来做伟大的事和培养自己伟大的品格。“我没有看到过更使人振奋的事实了,人类无疑是有能力来使自己有意识地提高他自己的生命的”。作者用自己在瓦尔登湖边的生活证明了人类可以生活得富裕而有闲暇,人类可以和自然、和动物和平相处,可以生活得简单却同样快乐。

梭罗是崇尚自由的。当他从瓦尔登湖到村镇中修鞋却被捕时,可以发现他向往的是美利坚的和平与自由。“什么也不能正当地迫使单纯而勇敢的人产生庸俗的伤感”。梭罗便是这样的一个人,他勇敢地面对生活和一切他要正视的东西。并仍能保持自己单纯的、自然的、美好的伟大心灵。并且他有着同样并且他有着同样生活简单,在世人看来卑微而粗俗的人作为访客,这些访客在梭罗看来是渊博的、谨慎而智慧的。

梭罗探索着大自然的美妙与历史,同时从大自然的历史中探求着人类的历史。梭罗从中领悟出自然对人类过错的宽容与大自然的生生不息,人类在大自然的面前忽然变得那么渺小!

最后,梭罗提到“不论你的生命如何卑贱,你要面对它、生活它;不要躲避它,更别用恶言咒骂它”。因为,在梭罗看来,生命永远没有想象中的恶劣。

Here I am sitting on a couch alone, thinking about what I have just finished reading with tears of sadness filling my eyes and fire of indignation filling my heart, which revived my exhausted soul that has already been covered by the cruelty and the selfishness of the secular world for a long time。 It is truly what I felt after reading Oliver Twist, written by the prominent British author Charles Dickens。

The resonance between me and the book makes me feel not only the kindness and the wickedness of all the characters in the novel, but what this aloof society lacks, and what I lack deep inside。 These supreme resources I’m talking about right now are somewhat different from minerals, oil that we usually mention。 They’re abstract like feelings, and some kinds of spiritual stimulation that all of us desire anxiously from one another —— love and care。

Those charitable figures whom Dickens created in the novel are really what we need in life。 They showed love and care to others, just as the gentle rain from the sky fell upon the earth, which was carved into my heart deeply。

Mr。 Brownlow is one such person。

The other day he had one of his elaborate watches stolen by two skilled teenage thieves, Artful Dodger and Charley Bates, and thought naturally it was Oliver, who was an orphan and forced to live with a gang of thieves, that had done it because he was the only one near by after the theft had taken place。 Being wrathful, he caught Oliver, and sent him to the police station where the ill-tempered, unfair magistrates worked。 Fortunately for him, Oliver was proved innocent by one onlooker afterwards。 With sympathy, Mr。 Brownlow took the injured, poor Oliver to his own home。 There Oliver lived freely and gleefully for some months as if he were Mr。 Brownlow’s own son。 One day, however, Mr。 Brownlow asked Oliver to return some books to the bookseller and to send some money for the new books that he had already collected。 The thief Oliver once stayed with kidnapped him。 After that he disappeared in Mr。 Brownlow’s life。 Searching for a while, Mr。 Brownlow had to believe the fact that he had

run away with his money。 But dramatically, they came across each other again a few years later。 Without hesitation, Mr。 Brownlow took Oliver home for the second time not caring if he had done something evil。

Perhaps most of us would feel confused about Mr。 Brownlow’s reaction。 But as a matter of fact, this is just the lesson we should learn from him。 Jesus said in the Bible。 “Forgive not seven times, but seventy-times seven。” Why is that? Because forgiveness is our ability to remove negative thoughts and neutralize them so our energy may be spent on doing what we came here for。 We cannot move forward in our future if past issues cloud our thinking。 Stop put Mr。 Brownlow into the list of your models。 Always give people a second chance no matter what they might have done。 That’s also a substantial part of loving and caring others。

Charles Dickens said:“Love makes the world go around。” These immortal words have inspired and will keep on inspiring us to chant the melody of love and to say the prayer of care forevermore。 Let us, therefore, enjoy life and treat other people lovingly。 These principles are the roots and foundations of beliefs supporting this article and our mission together。

in tess of the d’urbervilles, hardy molded a pure, kindhearted image and rather an image brave enough to rebel, to shoulder the responsibility of her action. her unfortuneness was the tragedy of the society, her character and fate. it vividly revealed the persecution towards people after industrial revolution made by the conception of capitalism and traditional moral. following are some of my opinions about the causes to her death.

her character and parentage was part of the cause

in the author’s ideal world, tess was the embodiment of beauty and the incarnation of love .she represents all the merits of the villagers in her hometown: beautiful, pure, kind, simple, charitable and tolerant. to love ,she had no egocentric thoughts and didn’t plan to meet her vain wish by marriage .she standed by he dignity and pursue freedom .hardy made the poor, helpless ,humble country girl as the heroin.despite she committed adultery and murder, hardy still claim she was a “pure girl”. this fully showed the author’s sympathy towards tess. hardy elaborately modeled the image of tess and indignantly describes the depression confronted with tess through her short life.

tess is a young woman who tends to find herself in the wrong place at the wrong time. she is a victim, but she is also, at times, irresponsible. she falls asleep while taking the beehives to market, which ends up killing the family horse, prince she decides to visit the d’urbervilles in trantridge, giving rise to all her future woes, partly out of the guilt and responsibility she feels toward her family. she wants to make good, but in trying to help her family she loses sight of her own safety and her own wants and wishes. she becomes alec’s victim in the forest. she probably should have known not to put herself in such a situation, but she has few other options. here, it seems as though she is destined to rely on others, even when they are unreliable.

tess is also a strong woman throughout the novel. she stands up for herself and refuses to crumble under pressure. she chastises herself for her weakness after her sexual escapade with alec. if we agree with her claim that this indiscretion is a moment of weakness, we probably also feel that such weakness is not unlike that of most human beings. she is hard on herself for letting herself become a victim. at the burial of her child, sorrow , she weeps but collects herself and moves on as a stronger woman. overall, her determined attempts to escape her past primarily reflect her strength.

her parentage to some extent leaded to her final tragedy. born in a poor family, with an ignorant vain, drunkard father who did not care too much about the

About Thomas Hardy

Thomas Hardy (1840---1928), who is an English novelist. His father is a stoneworker, who is fond of music. His parents thought much of the education of their son. He grown up in the Dorset shire, so the environment of there became the main backdrop of his writings. His writings often reflecting the change after capitalism intrude the countries in England and the people’s hard life.

At first, Hardy wrote some novels, and in his old age, he worked on poets. The novel was published in the year 1891. Thomas Hardy facing the terror of the war and propagating the love-kindness, he is one of the greatest English writers.

The summary of the book

As is known to all, is the most famous novel of Thomas Hardy. Tess comes from a farmer’s family, the Durbeyfields. One day her father, John Durbeyfied learns that they are descended from the D’Urbervilles, an ancient family. Her mother urges Tess to claim kinship with the remaining D’Urbervilles, so that Tess could marry a gentleman. Unwillingly, the girl comes in contact with the Stoke, D’Urbervilles. There she meets Alec D’Urbervilles. Having received a job of tending to chickens, Tess stays in the D’Urbervilles. Before long the rich but guileful Alec manages to seduce the girl and make her pregnant. Being humiliated and resolute, Tess returns home, and gives birth to the child, who is called Sorrow but dies soon . Without financial support, Tess has to leave home and goes to work at a distant farm, where she meets Angel Claire. After Angel persistent pursuit of Tess, the two fall in love. In the wedding night, Tess admits about Alec D’Urbervilles and the child. She begs for forgiveness, but Angel leaves her in disgust. Tess again returns home alone, only find that her family remains impoverished and she even has no place to stay. In the meantime, Alec D’Urbervilles appears again. He promises to support her family, only as a means to make Tess dependent. At the end of hope, the girl jumps into the trap of the shameless man. However, Angel Claire, who is remorseful for his mercilessness comes back, which makes Tess even more desperate. After Angel leaves, she kills Alec. Then she follows Angel and escape with him. They manage to hide for a while in a wood before she is arrested. She is hanged later.

In this story, the dramatis persona Tess is a beautiful, virtuous country girl. Angel Claire loves Tess, but his love is selfish, he can’t forgive her wife’s mistake, he forsakes her .Alec D’Urbervilles is an evil person, he makes Tess’s life being a tragedy.

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, Fortunes 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”!

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.

How can such a little boy who had already suffered oppressive affliction remain pure in body and mind? The reason is the nature of goodness。 I think it is the most important information implied in the novel by Dickens-he believed that goodness could conquer every difficulty。 Although I dont think goodness is omnipotent, yet I do believe that those who are kind-hearted live more happily than those who are evil-minded。

For me, the nature of goodness is one of the most necessary character for a person。 Goodness is to humans what water is to fish。 He who is without goodness is an utterly worthless person。 On the contrary, as the famous saying goes, ‘The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose, he who is with goodness undoubtedly is a happy and useful person。 People receiving his help are grateful to him and he also gets gratified from what he has done, and thus he can do good to both the people he has helped and himself。

To my disappointment, nowadays some people seem to doubt the existence of the goodness in humanity。 They look down on peoples honesty and kindness, thinking it foolish of people to be warm-hearted。 As a result, they show no sympathy to those who are in trouble and seldom offer to help others。 On the other hand, they attach importance to money and benefit。 In their opinion, money is the only real object while emotions and morality are nihility。 If they cannot get profit from showing their ‘kindness, they draw back when others are faced with trouble and even hit a man when he is down。 They are one of the sorts that I really detest。

Francis Bacon said in his essay, ‘Goodness, of all virtues and dignities of the mind, is the greatest, being the character of the Deity, and without it, man is a busy, mischievous, wretched thing, no better than a kind of vermin。

That is to say a person without goodness is destined to lose everything。 Therefore, I, a kind person, want to tell those vermin-to-be to learn from the kind Oliver and regain the nature of goodness。

Book review of The Little Prince

The Little Prince is a tale for both children and adults. The Little Prince is the story of a man who crashes his airplane into the desert only to meet a traveling boy from a small planet. The boy inquires about trees and sheep, shares his journeys and various encounters, and then leaves. Yet, reading between the lines, the story offers a much more complex, eiching, satisfying and eye-opening moral: what matters in life is love - and caring about someone or something and maintaining that relationship. The prince loves his rose enough to care for it every night by protecting it with a glass globe and requesting a muzzle for his sheep. He knows that the rose is naive with only four purposeless thorns and, out of his loyalty to her, it is his duty to protect her. Likewise, the narrator loves the prince and feels an obligation to secure his safe journey home.

I read this book as a child and was infected with a sense of awe and a newfound respect for the written word and its power to touch, heal and change perception. For myself, it accomplished two things; it instilled in me a desire to one day

become a writer and touch others with my words and like the narrator of the story, and Antoine De Saint-Exupery (whose own plane crash is said to have been the basis for the tale) it instilled within me a hope that one day the Little Prince will return and someone will let me know.

What is the meaning of this tale? Easily saying is that the tale talk about many normal things like morals and principles and values from two different but successive way as children and adults. As the narrator said you can only catch adults’ attention by describing the price of something or saying the number of something. It’s hard to make adults feel lovely by the children’s beautiful describing. That is the reason why many adults believe this tale is a tale for adults.

Being insincere and utilitarian, adults consider useful and kids think sinful. Free spirit and free heart, adults consider absurd and children believe necessary. The amazing point is that these two different beliefs are held by one species--Human. When we were young, we could see anything God want us to see. But after decades, what we could see was only something we need to see.

There are so many good things for children and their imagination. And there are not so many things for adults and their reality.

A Book that Impacted Me Most

I don’t remember the exact year I first read The Little Prince . Though the golden snake in the book plays a cameo role , I never forget the scene that he flashed kissed gently on the little prince’s ankle. It made me be afraid to reread this book.

Later, I listened a Michael Wong’s song named Fairy-tale Story, the prince in his song is different from the prince in The Little Prince, the prince in the song is the same as Andersen’s tales’ princes, they all have happy endings.

However, I think The Little Prince is a sad story. There is a saying: There are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand peoples eyes. Now, let me talk about my reading feeling. This simple story flies over every corner of the world: a pilot (the narrator) who had an accident with his plane and crashed in the Desert of Sahara then he met the little prince from the planet B-612, and the narrator listened little prince’s travel experience of seven planets. On the seven planets, he met a variety of persons. They are the king, the conceited man, the businessman, the tippler, the lamplighter, the geographer and so on.

The Little Prince is a story belongs to adults who have childlike innocence.because children don’t understand the little prince’s deep sadness.This is not so much a fairy tale, as it is a tragedy. This story tells the grow-ups’ world is full of empty,lost and loneliness with kids’ perspective. Among the story, the alcoholic is impressive. He was surrounded by a pile of beer bottles when the little prince saw him, and prince asked him why he is drinking, but he answered he want to forget his shame of drinking. This short planet visit plunged little prince into deep puzzled. He think the grow-ups are certainly very, very odd. In kids eyes, beautiful things must look with heart. But the adults pay more attention on things’ appearance that is just a shell and they don’t believe the eyes are blind and the heart is true.

Through this story, it also made me understand what’s the love---loves more mineral, more dense, more bitter and more weighty than the earths profoundest matter.

When I first read The Little Prince, I can’t understand the mean of love and never to think why should the little prince leave alone since he love his rose so deeply. For years, I reread the story and think about it. The simple true was first love. The little prince didn’t know how to love and It was difficult to make him understand the rose’s heart, so it may lead to misunderstanding and hurts from time to time. He leaved his planet because he can not accept the rose and himself.

This is why the little prince don’t know he have to leave : at that time, he had no idea he was in it. The little prince don’t understand the meaning of tame until he met the fox later. Then he produced the endless yearning for the roses and realized his responsibility.

"Do you want to be domesticated?" For me, this is a profound question. In the book, the little prince met a fox and invited the fox to play with him, but he was refused. The fox told him that he was not tamed. “what does that mean--tame?” little prince asked. The fox answered:” it means to establish ties: to me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me , you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world.”

Gradually the little prince was beginning to understand, because he remembered his rose and he thought his rose had tamed him. So he chose to go back to his planet in the end. But to the fox, the little prince’s farewell will make her sad, but the hurts because of love, she should learn to accept it gradually. I believe there are full of hurts within serious and true love.

As long as the little prince flied to different planets and met a variety of persons can he understand himself and

his rose. So I think traveling is a good way to experience life.

这本书并不是讲述传统意义上的公主的生活,小说的主人公名叫萨拉.克鲁,她并不是真正的公主,那么更多内容请和小编一起来阅读小公主英文读后感吧!小公主英文读后感(一)

A Little Princess is a touching novel written by Frances Hodgson Burnett―a famous novelist and dramatist. It obviously contains lots of fancied plots, but the parts it talks about creating miracles, can really reach the bottom of my heart. The book can bring me into a world that is more than reality while reading it. The extraordinary story makes me ponder a lot and gives me a deep impression that every girl can be a princess.

In my opinion, it is impossible for every rich girl to act like a well-behaved princess, but Sara, the heroine of the novel, did it! She was an imaginative little girl who had such intelligent small face and such perfect manners. Sara was a very nice girl who had a gentle, appreciative ways of saying, such as “If you please” “Thank you” which was very charming. So, not only her teachers and classmates liked her, but also her servants liked her. There was a time when Sara became a poor and pitiful servant insulted by the snobbish headmaster of the school. In spite of this, she had never complained to anyone about the horrible suffering she had endured. Sara was confident, brave, optimistic and kind-hearted just like before and she had never given up her enthusiasm of life. No matter when, Sara acted like a princess, and on account of this, she had accomplished a great deal of miracles over and over again.

After reading this outstanding book, I was shocked by Sara, a little girl who suffered such unimaginable pain and tortures, but still had an opposite attitude towards life. What impresses me most is that Sara put on her act of being a princess when she wore thin bottom shoes, wading in the street of London. From my point of view, her spirit of being so strong-minded when she was in hard times is worth admiring.

Truly, every girl is a princess coming into common life. The “princess” I mean is not a princess living in the palace and being regarded as the apple of everyone’s eye. As the matter of fact, the “princess” is at heart. I am in the belief that every ordinary girl in the world can be a princess. The way for a girl to be a princess is quite simple. Just suppose! You can suppose yourself to be a princess, and go about your business confidently without caring how the others would treat you. If you want to have more resemblance to a princess, be more kind and try your best to help the people in need. The most important thing you are supposed to do is that to feel like a real princess at any occasion, particularly when you are involved with enormous melancholy. Do not feel the conditions you faced are extremely wretched and attempt to get rid of the feeling of hopelessness and uneasiness. The less you look like a princess, the more you need to feel like a princess at heart.

Every girl can be a princess if she can do all I mentioned, no matter she is rich, beautiful or not. To speak truthfully, I cannot do as well as Sara. However, I will exert myself on being a princess mentally.

Do not feel depressed any more, to be a well-thought-of princess like Sara. You can do it, because Every Girl Can Be A princess.小公主英文读后感(二)

What a brave and kind girl! She is a rich familys princess,her father really love Alice ago,However, once her father had something wrong in the accident,so the teacher was cruelty to Alice,but I find that the Alice is very brave and outgoing,she never said someting scared or something bad,she just continue and grow,soon,a mircle was that Alice get a friend of her father,so she could get a good life and start a happy life again,yeah, Alice is a good princess,

As a little princess, she didnt hate nobody even her teacher a terrible miss.

At the moment, I just want to say that something you should insist,a good sentence,All road lead to the Rome,and Everything is possible, she can be a severnt from a princess,but after she insist,so she become a princess again,

I like the girl-Alice.小公主英文读后感(三)

Everyone in the world, whether he or she is rich or poor, can meet a lot of difficulties, even disaster. Different people have different ways to deal with them. After reading the little princess, Sara, touched me deeply. The little princess is by (USA) Francis hodgson Burnett. Sarah is a hero was born in Indias British gentlemans daughter, lived in a boarding school life princess. Because of Sarah was kind and generous and most of all - sorrow, she is loved by everyone. Everything goes well, until her father died in an accident.

Thoroughly changed everything. She didnt understand why the teachers and students to her so bad. Even the principal was like her, that she works 16 hours a day. Sarahs miserable life began to...

When I finished reading the book, I was surprised the incredible pain had suffered Sarah after her fathers death. She was happy, worriless, rich princess, but now she is a lonely, poor servant. She had to work very hard, but without any other small food only. Besides, she had to endure unfriendly, even treat her rude, and her classmates. All the teachers and students in the school despise her. The most important is, Sarah lost love and care of her parents.

How great pain! If you are Sara, can you tolerate the pain? Needless to say, an 11-year-old girl, and even adults, he could not bear it. But to my surprise, Sarah face it. Although, the pressure, she is still very optimistic, facing life.

Through reading the novel, I feel inspired, think more. When we encounter difficulties, what should we do? Some people always complain fate is not fair. Some people can sustain difficulties and choose to give up. Some people even tried to commit , because they lack the courage to overcome it. Compared with an 11-year-old girl Sara - who can take the pressure of the life and optimism, these people also sounded so lamentable. Why dont they make it?

However, most is she impress me thought characteristic and her "is a real princess." The "princess" does not mean the grand palace, the beautiful clothes and apple others eyes, but kind-hearted, generous and polite. This is unnecessary, "a real princess" is strong, but she must have a strong will. Sarah is a real princess, because you are in my heart, whether she is very rich, wears beautiful clothes in the classroom or her cold and hungry in the attic, just because she has a good feature and kind heart.

Fortunately, one of her friend Saras father found her, tell her that her father left for her great a sum of money. I prayed, and believe that all the good person should have a good result.

If youve ever been poor, this movie may be hard to watch. It depicts poverty in America in gut wrenchingly accurate ways. Ive been as poor as Chris Gardner, and, like him, Ive been poor among very rich people in the Bay Area while trying to work my way up.

Chris Gardner is a loving father and failing businessman. He is chosen for a competitive internship at Dean Witter, a stock brokerage. The internship, which offers Chris a very long shot at a better life, doesnt pay any salary. Chris has to live without a salary for six months while risking just about everything for that long shot gamble.

Chris is really smart. He can solve a Rubriks cube in minutes. But, hes poor. Poverty, like an octopus, keeps trying to suck him down to the bottom, and make him stay there.

His car is towed. His wife walks out on him, leaving him with a five year old son. He is arrested for unpaid traffic tickets. He becomes homeless. He has to rely on a homeless shelter.

All this while, he must appear for work in the morning in a suit and tie, and be ready to charm some of the wealthiest and most powerful people in the Bay Area. These people take wealth so much for granted that two of them stiff him for cab fare.

Having lived through similar experiences, I cringed throughout this movie. My stomach hurt. I winced. I cried. I hugged my knees to my chest.

The movie is very accurate, but painful to watch. I hope a lot of rich people, who think that they understand poverty, see it.

This movie will be politically controversial. First of all, it doesnt touch the race issue with a ten foot pole. For example, when Chris appears to stiff a taxi driver for fare (it was really the rich white guy who failed to pay), the taxi driver never uses the “n” word. In real life, I think he probably would have.

Is the movie afraid to talk about race, or does it not want to? I dont know, but I know that some will protest the movies not shoving race in the movie goers face. Im not one of those people. The movies approach to race -- treating it as almost incidental -- worked for me. As a poor white person, I can tell you that poor white people face the same obstacles Chris did.

Second, does the movie sell the message that if you work hard, you will succeed, no matter what, and does that message tell the truth about success in America? I think that the movie is open to interpretation. Some will see it as an indictment of poverty in America. The scene of carefree rich people driving past the line to get into a homeless shelter is pretty devastating. Other people will become angry because they believe that the movies depiction of hard work leading to rewards, in some cases, is too facile. I disagree, but thats what youll hear.

Third, is this movie meant to chastise black men who abandon their children? Chris is a role model exactly because he moves heaven and earth to be a good father to his son. This will be debated back and forth.

The movie has a big philosophical statement to make, that has been lost on many reviewers, for example, Richard Schickel in TIME.

Chris is shown running throughout the movie. Remember the title of the movie: “The PURSUIT of Happiness.” Chris places emphasis on “pursuit.” Jefferson, when he penned the Declaration of Independence, did not promise Americans happiness, but only the right to pursue it. Chris says, at one point in the movie, paraphrase, “I am happy right now. It is a fleeting moment.” We experience happiness in eyeblinks. The rest of the time we, like Chris, are chasing after it.

I don’t know for sure whether it is the cold or the movie that kept me tossing and turning in bed, but one thing is certain: many scattered fragments of the movie again and again flashed in my mind. My cell phone read 4:16 am at that time, but I was not sleepy at all. So I decided to get up and write something.

"The Pursuit of Happyness" -- the title comes from a misspelled schoolhouse mural -- has a lot on its mind but mostly this: If America is about the promise of bettering oneself, why does it have to be so freaking hard? In the movie, Jeffersons Declaration of Independence words about happiness kept recurring to Chris Gardner. Every day, Christ had to work hard from morning till night, but still could hardly make a living. Chris saw a bunch of suits, mostly male, pouring out of the Dean Witter Reynolds brokerage firm in downtown San Francisco. They all looked “happy,” “Why not me? “ Christ wondered. He did have an adorable boy, Christopher, but wife Linda was becoming a scarecrow of overworked anxiety. Finally, his wife left Christ because of life pressure, leaving him and her five-year-old son, Christopher. And naturally, Christ became a single father.

With the failure of his business, Christ had no money to pay for the rent, so they were driven away from the flat. They became homeless. They slept in asylum, subway station public bathroom or anywhere as a temporary shelter. The destitution of life was absolutely depressing, but for his son’s future, for his own belief, Christ never gave up and he still strongly believed that happiness would come one day if he worked hard enough today.

With his great efforts, Christ won a six-month internship at Dean Witter, but there was no pay at all. So on one hand, Christ had to work hard to make a living; on the other hand, he had to fight for his intern work, since only one of the twenty interns would succeed finally. Besides, he had to take good care of his son after day care. However, Christ made it with his amazing willpower.

Christ was unfortunate, for he got a wife who was not understandable at all (though she has her own difficulties) and was in bad luck with his business. But he was very fortunate also, for he got a son who was very thoughtful and, I think, tough life experiences always make a great person.

It is said that this movie is inspired by a true story, and I want to say, this movie does inspire me a lot. What impressed me most are: Christ’s wife left him because of life pressure; Christ’s love to his son and Christ’s strong belief towards life. Through these, I know that it is not easy to be a good husband and a good Papa, since in reality, only love cannot only make everything. And I also learn that one has to strongly believe in himself, no matter how difficult the situation is, but of course, hard-working is indispensable.

I like to watch The Pursuitof Happyness.

From Gardner, who realized that what I do is the real men and how to do good is the real father.

Christopher was from, I feel the childs innocence and ignorance, how is the good son.

You gotta dream, you gotta protect it. If you have a dream, you theprotection on it.

This is a great father to his sons care and education Christopher In many cases, we would like to see a movie may be silly to pass the time,saying that some of the good, or it may be trained to listen to hearing English spoken. This inspirational film, I look at it with the problem. What I can learn.

From despair to find hope Out of society, have no choice but to work hard, as long as solely, nothing is insurmountable unless heaven or hell.

Christophers cute in his ignorance and innocence which Christopher has always been the man could in his father through thick and thin,no complaints. Im impressed the most is his father said to him "I trust you",

I think this is that they are able to Gardner in countless ting in front of the biggest setbacks from the powerand reason.
