This time I watched Hardy again..."The Nameless Jude", the figure of Jude standing alone in the snow at the end reminded me of this "Half-Dead Tongue".
The tragedies of other people's families are made up, the stage is set up, the actors are invited, the gongs and drums are beaten, and many bridges of life and death are piled up and performed for people to see.
Hardy's tragedy was literally made of blood and tears, and every word was gouged out on the apex of people's hearts. The voice resounded in the heart, and the terrifying resonance made me almost couldn't help but wonder if what he wrote was his own. Past and Present?
All his tragedies seem to be no longer dramatic, or, in other novelists, called "dramatic", to Hardy's here become "fatalism." All the tragedies he wrote came naturally, and even the rhetorical questions of consternation were not given a chance.
He is pessimistic and negative, sympathetic and cynical. He personally loves him more than Hugo. Hugo's articles are too pretentious and nonsense. Hardy's novels only give people the feeling of endless candor and truth and questioning that penetrate life.
Only after watching Hardy did I know that the death of the romantic love is not a tragedy. The real tragedy is not only in the two people who love each other, but in the grief at the time of breaking up. Disillusionment of hope, disillusionment of hope, disillusionment of future life.
The woman who used to be healthy and smart died, and the souls who once cuddled with each other died one.
The sad thing is not death...
The sad thing is that she killed the youthful, lively, full of strength and wisdom with her own hands. Knowing the ignorance and moral hypocrisy of religion, she finally had to turn to religion to numb her soul.
She is a smart person, but she insists on being ignorant.
She was a lovely, stubborn and youthful person, but she made herself numb and old.
What kind of heavy and severe blow does a person have to go through, so that a person's mind and body can't bear it, so that he can swallow that numbing medicine as a good medicine?
I doubt that people today still have the courage and sincerity of Hardy to write the stories of those who betrayed the scriptures, were raped, were hurt and oppressed by society, and were not sympathized with. Maintain the purity and ideals of your heart.
Jude's story, if it is placed in modern times, in today's society, it is estimated that it cannot be written.
We have all been domesticated and ossified. When I read the movie novel of "Tess" and I was so mad that I could not cry, a classmate said: "I think Tess's cousin is very good. He gives her money and always follows her. Isn't this love her very much? What's wrong?"
I was speechless, I didn't know where to start for a while - I didn't know how to explain the difference between naked desire and free ideal love, I didn't know how to explain a rogue playboy with a wine bag and a rice bag, and What is the difference between today's overbearing presidents? I don't know where to start. The life of the girl Tess, who was bullied, insulted, tied up and occupied, was not a love drama but a real tragedy.
I realized my whole mind was messed up. I realize that the truth, kindness and beauty that the author conveys to the reader is actually absurd in the eyes of other people - I think Miss Tess is miserable, but she directly ignores the source of all oppression and hatred and thinks Tess is a conscientious murderer . Hardy wanted to try his best to protect the objects of sympathy, such as Jude, Tess, and Su. They might have been criticized in the society at that time, and they might have been scolded badly in today's society. They have all been betrayed. Live according to your own spirit and will. Therefore, they bear the brand of shame, and those who are shamed should be criticized, so even if they live a pure and noble heart, they will be punished and condemned more and more.
- Isn't this also a tragedy?
In "The Nameless Jude", the death of the protagonist is not the most tragic, until the moment of death, the shadow of tragedy has not been removed. The most cruel part of Hardy's tragic theory is that he penetrated the sorrow of human nature and fate into the bottom of people's hearts, so when you close the book, you can still see that kind of sorrow is still struggling in people's hearts, and it is still spreading in this world. Fate reincarnates in this generation.
