第三篇:Hamlet人物分析+英语小说读后感
An analysis of Hamlet
Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, or simply Hamlet, is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare in 1601—1602, and was first published in 1603.William Shakespeare, the most remarkable playwright and a poet of England in the period of the Renaissance in European, an outstanding representative of humanitarianism, is one of the founders of modern European literature.Being one of the world’s greatest writers, he was recognized as the pinnacle of English Renaissance.In his works, Hamlet, one of the four tragedies, is considered to be the summit of his art and it is also the sign of the maturation in the art of Shakespeare’s play.Besides, being Shakespeare's longest play and one of the most powerful and influential tragedies in the English language, Hamlet has inspired writers from Goethe and Dickens to Joyce and Murdoch, and has been described as “the world's most filmed story after Cinderella.”
Hamlet, the first of the great tragedies, describes a story of a prince’s revenge for his father’s death in Denmark.The King of Denmark died, young prince Hamlet who was making further education abroad came back to his country.Out of his imagination, his mother married his uncle Claudius just after the old King’s death.A ghost who looked like the old King emerged one night, and told Hamlet that it was Claudius who killed him, so Hamlet vowed to revenge.He began to pretend to be mad, and left his lover Ophelia.To spy upon the reflection of Claudius, Hamlet arranged a play which was drawn by him.Claudius realized it, he sent Hamlet to England, and asked the man who kept watch on Hamlet to give letter to the king of England to have Hamlet died.But Claudius failed;Hamlet came back to his country again.Meanwhile Ophelia was drawn because of her father’s death and her lover Hamlet’s drifting apart of her.Her brother Laertes was very angry;he asked to fight with Hamlet.Then Claudius arranged a sword match for them, in which Hamlet was killed by the poison sword, Laertes was wounded to die.The Queen(Hamlet’s mother)died from the poison wine which was prepared for Hamlet by Claudius.Before death, Laertes told the truth.Finally Hamlet killed Claudius with the cost of his life.When I read the novel, I sometimes was angry with Hamlet, the prince of Denmark.There were many appropriate opportunities for him to kill his uncle, Claudius, but he all missed because of his hesitation.For example, Hamlet once came upon Claudius in an attitude of prayer, and could have stabbed him in the back.But Hamlet did not strike because he believed that the evil person died there would be sent to the heaven.With the development of the plot, Shakespeare finally showed us the tragedy of Hamlet.Throughout the whole story, I think that maybe it was destined for Hamlet to end with his death.As far as I am concerned, there are two main reasons resulting in Hamlet’s tragedy.Firstly, it is Hamlet's character that contributes to the tragedy.On the one hand, Hamlet was melancholy.Being a prince with humanistic ideas, Hamlet had wonderful dreams on humanism when he studied in Wittenberg.Just as Shakespeare said in his work---He has “The courtier’s, soldier’s, scholar’s eye tongue, sword,” he is “Th’ expectancy and rose of the fair state, the glass of fashion and the mould of form.[ACT III, SCENE 1]” To him, the world was so bright.However, everything changed after Hamlet came back to Denmark.He found that his loved father died, his mother married his uncle, and his uncle became the king.His ideals were all shattered.So Hamlet became extremely melancholy and discontented with the state of affairs in Denmark and in his own family — indeed, in the world at large.He treated his mother as a stranger and even repudiated Ophelia, a woman he once claimed to love.His words often indicated his disgust with and distrust of women in general.He even said:“ Frailty thy name is woman.” So revenge became everything to him.He didn't trust anyone and finally fell into enemy's trap and died.On the other hand, Hamlet was delayed.While he knew that his enemy was his uncle, Claudius, the king, who also planted the spies around him to monitor his words and actions, he believed that it was a difficult task.So he hesitated a lot of things so that he missed many advantageous chances.Secondly, it is the social contradictions that bring about the tragedy.On the one hand, when Shakespeare was writing Hamlet, it was at the end of the reign of Queen Elizabeth.With the intensification of various contradictions of the society in British,the social evils were increasingly exposed.During that period, Shakespeare's humanist ideals collided with the social reality.He had completely lost the confidence of the reality.So Shakespeare reflected his disappointment and even despair on Hamlet, a typical image of the tragic hero, who was also a contradiction of the collision between the ideal and the reality.Therefore, in the play, Hamlet’s enemy was not just Claudius, but the whole feudal evil force.Humanism just existed as a power of thought at that time, which was far away to match with the feudal evil force.So Hamlet's death was destined.On the other hand, as his prince social position, Hamlet had no communication with people and was unwilling to corporate with people.What he believed was his own ability.In his mind he was the only person who could complete such hard task, which was also a root of Hamlet's tragedy.All in all, Hamlet is a successful work, giving people deep impression.In our real life, we may suffer from different pressures and difficulties.A good attitude is very important to us.There is no doubt that irreconcilable contradictions always exist between the ideal and the reality.We should treat them properly.

第五篇:呼啸山庄英文人物简介
Heathcliff is a fictional character in the novel Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë.Owing to the novel's enduring fame and popularity, he is often regarded as an archetype of the tortured Romantic Byronic hero whose all-consuming passions destroy both himself and those around him.Heathcliff can also be viewed as a reflection and product of his psychological past: the abuse, neglect and scorn of those with whom he grows up render him abusive, neglectful and scornful.Legend has stereotyped him somewhat into a romantic hero, and he is generally known more for his love for Catherine Earnshaw than his final years of vengeance in the second half of the novel, in which he grows into a bitter, haunted man(although there are also a number of incidents in Heathcliff's early life that show that he was an angry and sometimes malicious individual from the beginning;again, these tend to be glossed over in the popular imagination).His complicated, mesmerising and altogether bizarre nature makes him a rare character, with components of both the hero and the anti-hero.Catherine Earnshaw, known as Catherine Linton after her marriage, is the main female protagonist of Emily Brontë's novel Wuthering Heights.While residing in her ancestral home Wuthering Heights, she forms a deep romantic bond with foster brother Heathcliff, one that leads them both into misery, violence and despair.Edgar Linton is a character in Emily Brontë's novel Wuthering Heights.His role in the story is that of Catherine Earnshaw's husband.He resides at Thrushcross Grange and falls prey to Heathcliff's schemes for revenge against his family.Edgar is the father of his and Catherine's daughter, Catherine Linton, and the brother of Isabella Linton.He is a complete foil of Heathcliff as a character, as shown by his tender, gentle, and weak personality as opposed to Heathcliff's savage, tyrannical nature.Isabella Linton is a female character in Emily Brontë's only novel Wuthering Heights.She is the sister of Edgar Linton and the wife of Heathcliff.Hindley Earnshaw is a male character in Emily Bronte's novel Wuthering Heights.The brother of Catherine Earnshaw, father of Hareton Earnshaw, and sworn enemy of Heathcliff, he descends into a life of drunkenness, degradation, and misery after his wife Frances dies in childbirth, enabling
Heathcliff to seek revenge on him for his cruelty towards him in his childhood years.Ellen “Nelly” Dean is a female character in Emily Bronte's novel, Wuthering Heights.She is the main narrator for the story, and gives key eyewitness accounts as to what happens between the characters.Ellen is for the most part called “Nelly” by all characters.Catherine Linton, or Cathy Linton, is a character in Emily Brontë's novel Wuthering Heights.She is the daughter of Edgar Linton and Catherine Earnshaw, and, despite Heathcliff's attempts at exacting revenge on her for the indiscretions of her family, she eventually marries her true love, Hareton Earnshaw, re-establishing long-lost equilibrium in the story.Hareton Earnshaw is a character in Emily Brontë's novel Wuthering Heights.He is the son of Hindley Earnshaw and Hindley's wife Frances.At the end of the novel, he makes plans to wed Catherine Linton, with whom he falls in love.
