第三篇：《老实人》读后感

“潘葛洛斯”的命运

——《老实人》读后感

在阅读本书之前，我特别留意了作者伏尔泰的生平。伏尔泰出生于巴黎一个富裕的资产阶级家庭，是法国启蒙运动的导师和精神领袖，青年时期因写诗讽刺权贵，曾两次入狱，并被驱逐出境，他曾抱着对“开明君主”的幻想应邀来到柏林，终因失望而同普鲁士国王决裂。后在法国与瑞士交界的费尔奈庄园定居下来，积极从事社会活动，与欧洲各界人士保持频繁的通信联系，写了大量的小册子揭露宗教迫害和专制政体的黑暗。在反封建专制和同教会势力的斗争中度过了一生。

如此才不难理解《老实人》在阅读过程中带给我的“离奇颠簸”——这明显来自于创作者本身的心路。书中老实人一连串的荒诞遭遇、所见所闻就像一面镜子，折射了当时腐朽愚昧的社会现实、世态人情。伏尔泰通过他三天即创作完成的故事告诉我们关于“世界尽善尽美”的哲学的错误，其宣扬的一切都是维护旧政权、旧社会、旧制度、旧礼教的欺骗人民的一类谎话，一种愚民的政策。从这点来看，我认为《老实人》的小说色彩削弱了不少，反倒更像是一部寓言。

在徐志摩先生（之所以选择这个版本，是因为语言文白相间有种特殊的趣味）的译者序言中，有这样一段话来形容：“不知道伏尔泰，就好比读《二十四史》不看《史记》，不知道老实人就好比读《史记》忘了看《项羽本纪》。”并且把它比作西洋来的《镜花缘》——“时代的尊容在这里面描着”，倒是十分贴切。书中潘葛洛斯的命运也应证了这样的一点——被统治阶级价值观所裹挟，所洗脑，迎来的却绝不是“尽善尽美”的结局。伏尔泰的反抗意识、启蒙意义在《老实人》中得到了集中的展现。

我在作品中比较关注和感兴趣的点在于老实人这个个体在时代的洪流、社会的背景之下究竟从心态上、思想上发生了什么样的转变，我从原文中挑出了不同时期的两句很有意思的话来展现这种转变：一句出现在老实人和居内贡萌发情愫之时——“他们的手迷路了”，浪漫而又迷茫。那时候的老实人还相信他的老师潘葛洛斯，相信这个世界的美好与合理，然而接下来发生的一切将他的幻梦无情地击碎；另一句则是小说的末尾，老实人历尽艰辛，终于和大难不死的潘葛洛斯及被生活折磨得奇丑无比的居内贡等人在君士坦丁堡重逢。老实人信守诺言，娶居内贡为妻，并购买了地产和同伴们一起生活。但是，日子过得百无聊赖，老实人从一个土耳其庄稼汉那里受到启发而顿悟，告诫同伴“种我们的田地要紧”。从这一刻起，他已经经历了对“天下十全十美”的哲学的从怀疑到彻底否定。

回头再看这部作品的“启蒙”意义，就很明了了。在当时的的法国乃至整个欧洲，下层人民的生活离“十全十美”简直有万里之遥，宫廷与教会的双重欺压使得穷苦的老实人们犹如生存于狭缝之中，但是教会的谎言还在继续蛊惑着人心——世界本是光明美好，现时受穷受欺日后可上天堂。在这种情况下，若要使任何思想上的改革有发生的可能，就必须先让最广大劳动者意识到自己生活的不幸，以及更重要的，这种不幸是他人强加于其身的。

换言之，“潘葛洛斯”所象征的虔诚却备受苦难的人们，必须舍弃掉那份头脑中虚幻的“十全十美”，才有可能真正觉醒，拿起工具或武器，创造或捍卫真正的美好。

从《老实人》到《1984》，这种告诫人们认清社会真相的小说，令读者“开化”的现实意义远大于使读者体味真善美的文学意义——称“启蒙”也好，“政治寓言”也好，它们的存在跳出了文学史直接影响了历史的发展。

而且，比较有趣的一点是，这一类型的小说在结构上往往是具有共通性的，主人公先是接受多年来被灌输的固有观念（在这里是潘葛洛斯的说教），然后通过自己的经历达成一种“蜕变”，即与社会主流的决裂或是个人性质的“革命”。当然，为了能拥有最大量的读者，伏尔泰笔下老实人的经历颇有些当时冒险小说流行的怪力乱神的味道。

第四篇：《不能让老实人吃亏》读后感

老实人是同事、朋友多年来对我的评价，我曾为此烦恼过、苦闷过，难道实实在在做人、兢兢业业干事不对么？不会吹牛拍马、趋炎附势有错么？这次参加全市第六期青年干部培训班学习，听了费高云书记在开学典礼上的重要讲话，深受启发、信心倍增，感觉做一个老实人，是我正确的选择。我将珍惜这次青干班的学习机会，进一步丰富充实自己，争做内涵丰富的老实人。

一是多学，做知识型的老实人。作为一名办公室的工作人员，平时注重经济理论的学习，政治理论方面是一个短腿。这次一定要静下心、沉下身，集中精力投入学习，不仅要学好宏观经济形势、高新技术、船舶制造、汽车及零部件等经济理论课程，更要在政治理论方面下功夫，深入学习党的十七大和十七届三中、四中全会精神，认真领会马克思主义、毛泽东思想、邓小平理论，刻苦钻研“三个代表”重要思想和科学发展观。此外，还要注重物联网、低碳经济、循环经济等新知识的学习，使自己成为一名知识全面的老实人。/>二是多思，做智慧型的老实人。今年以来，全市经济文秘杂烩网经受住金融危机等诸多因素的考验，继续保持较好的发展态势。在当前全球经济上行基础不牢固，仍有下行风险的背景下，我市经济如何发展？如何摆脱危机影响，保持健康发展？我将紧盯国内外经济形势的发展变化，利用这次在青干班学到的知识，结合仪征实际，认真思考，每月做好全市经济形势分析，既要分析存在问题，还要提出切实可行建议。针对影响较大的事件，开展专题调研，形成高质量的调查报告，为市委、市政府科学决策提供参考。

三是多谋，做实干型的老实人。经济发展不仅要关注当前，更要关注未来，今后及“十二五”时期，是我市经济发展的战略机遇期、转型升级期，保持这一阶段www.经济健康发展尤为重要。首先，作为小康办协调推进组的工作人员，我将主动会同其他各组工作人员及时掌握全市小康指标监测、宣传发动等工作动态，谋划解决问题的措施和办法，及时做好协调推进工作，为小康建设取得全面胜利贡献一份力量。其次，要主动谋划“十二五”期间全市经济社会发展的思路和目标，为编制《仪征市“十二五”规划》做好前期调研。

四是多检，做清白型的老实人。在工作和生活中，要时常检点自己，是否还保持实实在在做人、兢兢业业干事的作风，是否遵守党的各项政策规定和纪律，是否做到心系群众、严于律己、清清白白，要始终保持清醒的认识和老实人作风。实现“率先、苏中领先、全省争先”的目标，需要我这样的老实人，我将不断进取，加倍努力，做出应有的贡献。

五、练习说明

1、伏尔泰对人类的贡献可以归纳为两大部分。一是通过著书立说和文学创作，做出思想上的贡献：培育良知，教化人类，教导人们走向自由;二是以一个知识分子的良知和责任，为他那个时代的弱势人群争取人权，勇敢斗争。

【教学后记】

课堂不可能解决所有的问题。在本文的教学过程中，对部分学生不能解决的难题，我采用了存疑的方式，这实际是在学生心中种下了一颗种子，我深信等到适宜的时候它会长出芽、开出花来的。学会放弃其实也是一种教学智慧。

我还感谢那个提出为什么不喊伏尔泰万岁问题的学生，这横来的问题激起了学生思考问题的兴趣，活跃了课堂，而且简化了我的教学环节。相信学生的智慧，他们会给我们许多的欣喜。
