Reading Report of A Tale of Two Cities
A Tale of Two Cities was written by Charles．Dicken(1812～1870）,a famous English novelist, who only had a few years on the school.He become well-known writer, thanks to diligent self-study and hard work..He lived in the transitional period that from the semi-feudal society to industrial capitalist society of England.The background of the novel and the author's life has a close relationship between the times.In reality, Dickens himself had great concern to the French Revolution.His interest in the French Revolution began in England which is lurking in serious social crises at that time.The society of England in later the 19th century was remarkably like the France of later the 18th century.In the novel, with the broad real background of the French Revolution, it profoundly exposed the society contradiction between the poor and aristocrats.The poor suffered from overcrowding, hunger, repetitive labor and long hours of work.Poor peasants were exploited greatly by the aristocrats and they led a terrible life.On the contrary, the aristocrats shared luxurious material plundered from the poor.What’s more, the upper class bullied or even killed the poor without any mercy.So brave peasants rose up and fought against the aristocrats.From the novel , we can easily read about the author's thoughts.He intensely attacks the aristocratic social class which is dissolute and cruel, and sincerely sympathizes with the depressed classes.About the content, the novel is mainly about three parts: the unjust charge, love and revenge, which are independence but also incident cross-correlation stories together.Dickens portrayed many vivid characters.About positive characters, Dr.Alexandre Manette ,who's experience is taken as the main clue by the author,is honest and kind but suffers the persecution actually.Lucie Manette, Doctor Manette's daughter, is beautiful and gentle.Charles Darney is graceful and noble.He is a descendant of French nobility, but dissatisfying with his family's acts of oppression of workers and giving up inheritance rights of property, then he lived in London as a French teacher.Sydney Carton is a talented but cynical British lawyer，who's dual character, one that is both selfless and sensitive, as well as self-pitying and inconsiderate, that makes him one of literature's most fascinating characters.At that time he had began to love Lucie but he did not pursue her for one year.He loved Lucie, but he‟s afraid himself can bring happiness to her.He once told Lucie that“ „If it had been possible, Miss Manette, that you could have returned the love of the man you see before yourself--flung away, wasted, drunken, poor creature of misuse as you know him to be—he would have been conscious this day and hour, in spite of his happiness, that he would bring you misery, bring you to sorrow and repentance , blight you, disgrace you, pull you down with him.I know very well that you can have no tenderness for me, I ask for none, I am even thankful that it cannot be.’” We are easily moved by his sprit: “For you, and for any dear to you, I would do anything.If my career were of that better kind that there was any opportunity or capacity of sacrifice in it, I would embrace any sacrifice for you and for those dear to you.” He just buried his love in his heart deeply.when Darnay was to be killed ,he carried out his promise.In the end of the story , Carton was carried to execution ground, but he was quiet, for his Lucie
and her husband Darnay, he believed he had a splendid life and was worth of loosing his life.Sydney Carton saved Darnay and carried out his promise.Although he was killed instead of Darnay, he wouldn‟t die in our heart.For me, in fact, Sydney Carton made the best and deepest impression on me.And I believe Such unselfish deed was just the one that every reader wanted to appreciate.On the other hand, about negative characters, in the novel, without any hesitation, Dickens exposed what the Evremonde brothers had done.In order to own a peasant woman, the Evremonde brothers forced four innocent peasants to death.While they just signed a piece of paper then they could send anyone to the prison until they let him out.How decaying they were!What‟s more, the earls regarded the poor as animals not human beings.And once when his carriage knocked down a poor child, the aristocrat only cared about his own horses but not the young poor child.When he knew the child was dead, instead of fearing guilt, “It is extraordinary to me,' said he, „that you people cannot take care of yourselves and your children.One or the other of you is forever in the way.How do I know what injury you have done my horses? See!Give him that.' He threw out a gold coin……”.These circumstances made me feel the aristocrats are not human beings at all.How cruel and sinister they are.The author used various kinds of writing techniques, such as flashback(the beginning of A Tale of Two Cities), narration interspersed with flashbacks, foreshadowing, foreshadowing and so on.It made the Structure become complete and tight and the plots become tense and dramatic.Its style is solemn and gloomy.It's full of worried and indignant.What's a pity, in my opinion, the whole novel is the lack of humor.That is a fly in the ointment.The author also use lots of rhetoric.For instance, Dickens began A Tale of Two Cities with this famous sentence: “It was the best of times, it was the worse of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness;it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness;it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, …”It is a typical example of parallel structures.Ten used in conjunction by the “it was...” constitutes a sentence to form a perfect parallel structure(which includes five sets of pairs of dual sentence).It described the spirit of the era in which this novel takes place and was easy to take the reader into the specific circumstances at the time of that era.In addition, there are many a good sentences.For example, at the end of the novel, When Carlton was in exchange for his loved Lucie 's happiness with his own lives that he calmly embarked on a guillotine, and said that: It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done;it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known.I was really touched by his great spirit.Many people think that love is selfish, but Sydney Carton tell us there is the purest and loftiest love in the word, although it is hidden in the deep of the heart , it is profound;although it bear a lot of torture, it make his lover happy;although it is to devote selflessly, it is not waiting for payback.This kind of love has reached a new height, it is beautiful with a little cheerless, it must become classic love.Another example, “Sadly, sadly, the sun rose;it rose upon no sadder sight than the man of good abilities and good emotions, incapable of their directed exercise, incapable of his own help and his own happiness, sensible of the blight on him, and resigning himself to let it eat him away.”(Book 2, Chapter 5), it‟s a theory of Sydney's view of himself.In conclusion, reading between the lines, I began to understand the position of humanitarian was important in Dickens‟ novels.He had a firm and obvious distinguish between mercy and evil.In A Tale of Two Cities, he showed deep sympathy to the poor.On the other hand, he strongly condemned the feudal aristocrats‟ behaviors.In the novel, we can read his thoughts that no matter the person was rich or poor, if his behaviors agreed with morality, it should be praised.If not, then it should be criticized.More important is we can’t deny that some of Dickens’ views about humanitarian are still worth appreciating and leaning today.That is, we should agree that humanitarian is important to us.And only“love makes the world go round”.
