Jane Eyre — A Beautiful Soul
Jane Eyre, is a poor but aspiring, small in body but huge in soul, obscure but self-respecting girl.After we close the covers of the book, after having a long journey of the spirit, Jane Eyre, a marvelous figure, has left us so much to recall and to think:
We remember her goodness: for someone who lost arms and blinded in eyes, for someone who despised her for her ordinariness, and even for someone who had hurt her deeply in the past.We remember her pursuit of justice.It’s like a companion with the goodness.But still, a virtuous person should promote the goodness on one side and must check the badness on the other side.We remember her self-respect and the clear situation on equality.In her opinion, everyone is the same at the God’s feet.Though there are differences in status、in property and also in appearance, but all the human being are equal in personality.We also remember her striving for life, her toughness and her confidence…
When we think of this girl, what she gave us was not a pretty face or a transcendent temperament that make us admire deeply, but a huge charm of her personality.Actually, she wasn’t pretty, and of course, the ordinary appearance didn’t make others feel good of her, even her own aunt felt disgusted with it.And some others even thought that she was easy to look down on and to tease, so when Miss Ingram met Jane Eyre, she seemed quite contemptuous, for that she was obviously much
more prettier than ‘the plain and ugly governess’.But as the little governess had said: ‘Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!’ This is the idea of equality in Jane Eyre’s mind.God hadn’t given her beauty and wealth, but instead, God gave her a kind mind and a thinking brain.Her idea of equality and self-respect impress us so much and let us feel the power inside her body.In my mind, though a person’s beauty on the face can make others once feel that one is attractive and charming, if his or her mind isn’t the same beautiful as the appearance, such as beauty cannot last for, when others find that the beauty which had charmed them was only a falsity, it’s not true, they will like the person no more.For a long time, only a person’s great virtue, a noble soul, a beautiful heart can be called as AN EVERLASTING BEAUTY, just as Kahill Gibran has said, that ‘Beauty is a heart enflamed and a soul enchanted’.I can feel that how beauty really is, as we are all fleshly men, so we can’t distinguish whether a man is of nobleness or humbleness, but fleshly men, so we can’t distinguish whether a man is of nobleness or humbleness, but as there are great differences in our souls, and from that, we can know that whether a man is noble or ordinary, and even obscure, that is, whether he is beautiful or not.Her story makes us thinking about life and we learn much from her experience, at least, that is a fresh new recognition of the real beauty.经典语段:
You think because I'm poor, I'm plain, I have no feelings? I promise you, if god is gifted me with wealth and beauty, I should make it does as hard for you to leave me just as for me to leave you now, but he didn not.If my spirit can address yours, as we both pass the grave stood before himequal.读后感受:
In the story,her life can be devided into five parts.一. At Gateshead(before ten years old)
二. At Lowood School(8 years` school life,6 years to study ,2
years to teach)
三. At Thornfield(about one year,the most important time in
her life)
四. At Moor House(half a year)
五. At Ferndean Manor(maybe the rest of her life)
第三篇:《简爱》书评(英文)[最终版]
Book Review of Jane Eyre
Jane Eyre lived in an environment that her parents died.She lived with her uncle and aunt.She had lived for 10 years in abuse and discrimination.But Jane Eyre built her confidence and a spirit that could overcome everything.She was integrity, exalted and pure, for Rochester she was one can talk in the spirit equally.He slowly fell in love with her.His sincerity moved her, she accepted him.But the day when they got married, Jane Eyre was shocked to know that Rochester had a wife, she insisted to leave.In such a rich environment, she still insisted on her personal dignity, as this is the spirit charming of Jane.The writer designed a very bright ending.Rochester manor ruined, he became a disabled, but in such a condition, Jane no longer wandered between dignity and love, she married Rochester with dignity.The novel tells us that our life is the best of the dignity of people and love, the ending of the novel to the heroine is such a life.Though I think the final outcome is too perfect, but I still respect the author’s dream of the good life with love and dignity, after all, in today's society, will people's value realized in this way cannot do without the help of the money.People are crazy for money and position, they seems to submerged love.In the choice between poor and rich, in love and do not love, few people will do such as Jane abandon all for love and personality.Jane Eyre have showed us a truth that turn complex to simple, is a kind of felling that pursuit for the whole heart, is a kind of simplified emotion regardless of the gain and loss, just like a cup of iced water, purify each reader’ soul, also cause the resonance of the readers, especially the female readers.The novel is worth reading.

《简爱》书评
2011级英语6班 李悦 学号20114325
第一次真正接触《简爱》这篇小说是在初中时期,那时语文书的扩展阅读上有这篇小说的几篇选段,读过之后,我就被这篇小说深深吸引了,于是,我开始真正阅读这篇小说。
简爱的一生大体可以分为五个时期:1在盖茨黑德.和姑妈在一起的时候。这一时期可以说是简爱人生最黑暗的时期之一,当时的她只是一个小孩子,却收到了非常不公平的对待。小时候的她虽然势单力薄,却仍旧敢于为了公平而抗争,这些需要很大的勇气,从这里也能看出,简爱从小就有很强烈的自尊心,而这种自尊心在他后来的人生里起了很大的作用,也给简爱这一人物形象增加了很深的人格魅力。简爱人生的第二个时期可以说是在洛伍德学校的时刻,这里算得上是他人生的第一个转折点,在这里,他虽然也受到了来自于布洛克赫斯特先生的侮辱,但这里有着人性的温暖,在这里,她结识了人生中的第一个朋友-海伦彭斯,一个邋遢却又性格随和的女孩子,两人虽然在对待别人的不公平待遇问题上存在很大不同,但海伦这一角色的存在给简爱的幼年人生带去了一丝光明。在海伦生病即将死去的夜晚,简爱是陪在他身边的,在这个时候,友情战胜了对死亡的恐惧,将两个人的心永远连在一起。还有温柔可人的坦普尔小姐,也给了简爱很多心灵的帮助。最终,在简爱自己的奋斗和大家的支持下,简爱成功毕业,并做了一名教师。
简爱人生的第三个时期,可以说是简爱一生中最重要的时期,那就是在桑菲尔德府给阿黛尔做教师的时期。就是在这一时期,他认识了自己喜欢的人—罗切斯特先生。在于罗切斯特先生的相处中,简爱渐渐爱上了这个男人,而简爱的坚强,独立,积极向上,以及强烈的自尊心也深深打动了罗切斯特先生,促使他向简求婚。
可惜好景不长,当简爱沉浸在恋爱的幸福中时,现实的雷电狠狠地劈醒了她—罗切斯特先生已经有了妻子。这是的她,为了自己的尊严,毅然绝然的放弃了婚礼,甚至不拿一分一毫,离开了桑菲尔德府,走上了人生的第四条道路。
简爱人生的第四个时期,可以说是她生命中的第二个重大转折点。从饥寒交迫流离失所差点死去到遇到自己的依然在世的亲人,简爱的人生再次有黑暗转为了幸福。后来的他继承了财产,成了一个有钱人,和家人在一起很快乐。
简爱人生的最后一个时期,是回到桑菲尔德的时期。当他听到罗切斯特的遭遇之后,终于回到了罗切斯特身边,现在的她及维护了自己的尊严,也找回了自己的幸福,从此未来一片光明。
认真读过《简爱》的书友们应该都知道,在这本书序言的最后署名为科勒·贝尔,一个男性名字,这在一定程度上反映了当时的社会情境。夏洛蒂·勃朗特生活的社会,还是一个男尊女卑的社会,当时女性写小说是不被认可的,因此,作者采用了一个男性化名。据说,当时的夏洛蒂是和妹妹安妮,艾米丽一起写书的,结果妹妹们的书都被出版商接受了,只有夏洛蒂的《教师》遭到了退稿,可她并没有灰心,又花了一年时间写成了《简爱》,竟然两个月后就出版了。从这里我们可以看出,夏洛蒂是一个不甘平凡的女子,她有着似火的热情和坚持不懈的精神,不被挫折所打倒,挫折对懦弱的人来说是绊脚石,而对于那些意志坚定的勇士来说,只能成为他们勇往直前的垫脚石。她追求公平,始终为平等和自由而奋斗着,而《简爱》恰恰是她心境的真实写照,这部小说处处渗透着一个思想,那就是女性独立意识。对简爱,我有的是欣赏和赞美.她追求独立的人格,追求男女之间精神的平等.虽经历不幸却热爱生活,并把爱带给每个需要她的人.为了自己的爱的信念,平等的真实纯粹的爱,甚至毅然放弃渴望以久的唾手可得的爱情,并最终也自己的爱人实现了精神上的平等,简爱的一生,虽谈不上轰轰烈烈,但却是平凡而不平庸.在我心中,简爱就像一个充满智慧,充满爱心并努力使自己生命得到最大张扬的精灵.她的生命,有如彗星的闪亮和美丽.《简爱》中的人物,大多形象生动,性格鲜明。而这些形象中,给我印象最深的就是海伦·彭斯。她给我的印象就像一个坠落凡间的天使,不染一丝凡尘。她的心中时刻充满着爱、理解和宽容。无论遭受怎样不公平的待遇,她都默默承受着,不带一丝抱怨。她的性格和简爱形成了鲜明的对比,简爱的性格是奔放的,不屈的,如果受到不公平的待遇,她会不顾一切的与之抗争,她敢爱,同时也敢恨。而海伦却是平静、宽容的,她似乎只有爱,没有恨。不管你怎样对她,她都不会责怪,她会从自身寻找错误,站在别人的角度思考问题,同时还不断规劝简爱学会忍耐。善良和智慧是对她的最好诠释。人不会因美丽而可爱,却会因可爱而美丽。也许海伦的一生是短暂的,但她的死并不是毁灭,而是一种重生,我相信,这样的一个女孩儿,死后是一定会进入天堂的吧。
喜欢《简.爱》,最主要是喜欢书中对爱情描写.没有任何露骨,低俗,色情的刻画,呈现在读者面前的是一种动人心弦,至高无上的爱.她一直以为自己姿色平平,地位低下,贫穷,微不足道,只配过一种平淡,清苦的生活,象野花野草那样无人欣赏,无人攀摘,自生自灭.可没想到她和主人之间燃起了烈焰般的爱情.一开始她把爱深深地埋藏在心底.在喝茶,吃午餐和傍晚的散步,她尽可能地若无其事,平静处之,但在独自一人的时候,她打开记忆的闸门,他们相处的一幕幕清楚的再现,陶醉在深深的幸福之中.她多次试探罗切斯特先生和英格拉姆小姐的婚事,罗切斯特先生也佯装与英格拉姆小姐亲密.他们相互之间试探,相互审视着对方,其实他们早已在心灵上合为一体了.罗切斯特先生对简刻骨铭心爱的表露:“我有时候对你有一种奇怪的感觉---特别是象现在这样,你靠近我的时候,我左边肋骨下的哪一个地方,似乎有一根弦和你那小身体同样地方的一根类似的弦打成了结,打得紧紧的,解都解不开.要是那波涛汹涌的海峡和两百英里左右的陆地把我们远远的隔开,那时候,我内心就会流血”“对于只是以容貌来取悦于我的女人,在我发现她们既没有灵魂又没有良心---在她们让我看到平庸,浅薄,也许还有低能,粗俗和暴燥的时候,我完全是个恶魔;可对于明亮的眼睛,雄辩的舌头,火做的灵魂和既柔和又稳定,既驯服又坚定的能屈而不能断的性格,我却是永远是温柔和忠实的”这话既打动了简,也打动了读者.本该一帆风顺走下去结婚生子,但却因一场突如其来的变故而搁浅.罗切斯特先生发疯的前妻的出现,简走了,为了她的自尊,也为了对爱情的忠贞.后来发疯的妻子烧毁了所有一切,跳楼身亡;罗切斯特先生为救疯女人被倒塌的房梁砸瞎了双眼.孤寂地隐居在森林间的小木屋......这时简又来到了他的身边,在仿佛经历了几个世纪之后的相见,没有了语言,没有了火一样的激情,他们紧紧相拥,平静走向小木屋......简爱与罗切斯特之间的爱情,最终超越了性别和等级的不平等,超越了疾病和残疾的阻碍,在历经千辛万苦的流浪和别离之伤后,最终从那一场滔天烈火中涅槃重生。
读过《简爱》之后,心情久久无法平静。文中的那句话“We are all equal!”时刻萦绕在我心头。“难道就因为我一贫如洗,默默无闻,长相平庸,个子瘦小,就没有灵魂,没有心肠了——你想错了,我的心灵跟你一样丰富,我的心胸一样充实!”发出了时代的最强音。她那股倔强,那分自尊,带给了我们太多的感动。不管是贫穷,还是富有;不管是美貌,还是相貌平庸,简爱始终保持着美好的心灵和充实的心胸,都能以独立的人格和坚强的个性生活.从这本书中,可以看出它塑造了一个体现新兴阶级的某些要求的女性形象,刻画了工业革命时期的时代精神。
但是,客观的说,《简爱》一书尽管体现了不屈的抗争精神和强烈的自由平等思想,还是不可避免的出现了一些瑕疵。简爱虽然最终成功的和罗切斯特幸福的生活在了一起,但这些都是发生在了简爱得到了一大笔遗产和罗切斯特失去了庄园,眼睛失明之后,身份的转换,一定程度上体现了作者思想的一定局限性,同时也展现了资产阶级的妥协性。
不过,瑕不掩瑜,简爱及其作者夏洛蒂·勃朗特所表现出的独立自由平等精神,将永远在英国文学史上占据一个光辉的位置。
第五篇:《简爱》书评
品《简 爱》之奇葩人生
“就因为我一贫如洗、默默无闻、长相平庸、个子瘦小,就没有
灵魂,也就没有心了吗?——你想错了。我的心灵跟你一样丰富,我的心胸跟你一样充实!要是上帝赐予我一点姿色和充足的财富,我会使你同我现在一样难分难舍,我不是根据习俗、常规,甚至也不是血肉之躯同你说话,而是用灵魂同你的灵魂在对话,就仿佛我们两人穿过坟墓,站在上帝脚下,彼此平等——本来就如此!”
——简 爱爱情是什么?主人公简爱给了我们最令人回味的答案,没有华丽的词藻,激烈的表白,却深深诠释了爱情的真谛,不可替代,将我心换你心始知相忆深,我们古代的智者们早就领悟了,而今天的我们却仍在喧嚣中寻找,我想如果每个想拥有真挚爱情的少女,都有简爱小姐美丽纯粹的心,同样也会拥有你的罗切斯特先生,虽然没有王子华丽的外貌,但真诚执着的爱情才能成就永恒。
简爱,一个又黑又小、长得不美又毫无背景的孤女,她敏感、倔
强、固执、孤僻而又热情、纯真、坦率、坚毅。在寄居期间,遭受舅妈里德太太的歧视与虐待,又备受表兄妹的欺侮;在罗沃德寄宿学校里,受尽老师的冷眼,被勒令当众站在凳子上羞辱,受尽精神与肉体的摧残。这些磨难迫使她养成了倔强的性格,同时又使她在面对冷漠与虐待时能淡然处之,以至于与罗切斯特的初次唐突对峙时,而没有愤怒与仇恨,瘦小柔弱的她眼睛依然清澈。仿佛什么都伤害不了她,什么都可以轻轻抹去。正是这份罕见的从容、淡泊和自信,吸引了在社交场上阅历丰富的浪荡中年罗切斯特。
有人曾将电视剧《流星花园》中的杉菜同简爱进行过比较,因为
她们都不漂亮。杉菜,一张平凡寡淡的脸,功课一般,智商不高,家境贫寒,如此先天条件,怎么可能征服那个超级富家公子,同时还是一个时尚健美的帅哥?那么,《流星花园》做到了:你可以没有钱,可以不美丽,但是你一定要有性格,我不美,可我也能做女主角。这便是简爱让人着迷的地方——不漂亮,但有自尊、倔强、勇敢。
那么,就个人观点而言,我将从主人公简爱的人生观、爱情观、价值观三方面谈起。
人生观:“只要你全力以赴,你很可能会成为自己所向往的人”。
她厌倦循规蹈矩的生活,渴望在一方充满希望与烦恼、刺激与兴奋的新天地中“追求人生的真谛”。《简爱》一书被称为“19世纪英国版的灰姑娘童话”,但简爱跟灰姑娘不同,灰姑娘很美丽,只是被粗陋的衣服所掩盖,最后凭借一双水晶鞋征服了王子的心。而简爱没有这份荣幸,也没有这种虚荣,如果让她穿上水晶鞋恐怕有点不伦不类。其貌不扬的她,就是靠她的自由独立、自尊自信、不甘于命运的摆布、善良宽容,逐渐征服了高傲刻薄的罗切斯特。既然无法在容貌上美若天仙,那就全力以赴做好自己,保持自己的独特风格,这就是简爱。爱情观:她的情感世界充满了最热烈的渴望和想象,却又总是能
冷静地分辨出想象与现实的差别,她不让爱情的癫狂迷失自我,而是要凭借一个清醒的自我来抓住真实的爱情。她对生命从不气馁,也从不放弃自己,反而踏实地前进着。她爱上了罗切斯特,然而却在他们步入礼堂之际,一连串冲击性的事件缓缓发生,阻挡了他们的幸福。她一生与命运博采,最后,她终于获得了胜利,收获了有尊严的幸福,与罗切斯特走在了一起,缔造了不平凡的一生。简爱,让我看到了美丽的令人陶醉的人性之美,看到了一个对纯真、爱情、尊严、信念、理想不懈追求的不卑不亢的女性形象。
价值观:“我现在感到,自己坚持原则和法规是对的,感谢上苍的指导。”简爱之所以能够战胜一切艰难困境,正是因为她能一直坚持自己的原则。香港电影《英雄本色》中有这样一句台词:“有原则就什么都不怕。”的确如此,一个人如果想有所成就,就一定要有自己的原则,再随和、变通也绝不能逾越某一条行为操守的“底线”。那么,简爱的“底线”是什么?是金钱对于爱情和人格独立的不可磨灭的重大意义,虽说金钱并不能改变一切,但简爱凭空冒出个有钱亲戚,并很快死掉把钱留给了简爱,这确实奇迹般地提升了简爱的社会地位;同时阁楼上的疯女人又成功地降低了罗切斯特的社会地位,使得两人可以站在同一海拔高度上平等相爱,这给了简爱心灵上的极大平等感,从而驱使她又回到了桑菲尔德庄园,回到了罗切斯特的身边。
人生不是止水,很多时候,我们会因为苦难而停止了前进的脚步,会因为羁绊而脱离了梦想的轨道,而简爱可以让我们相信,当我们以最强大的骨骼去承载生命给予我们的重量时,当我们以最平常、乐观的心态去摆脱自套的桎梏时,我们也将收获天地间永恒的照亮。
《简爱》告诉我们:用心生活,自尊自爱,坚持原则,做好自己。那么,在饭后茶余或者书荒之际,我们何不去捧读一下它,何不去品读《简爱》所展示的奇葩人生呢?
