Every one of those keen moments has left its trace and lives in us still, but such traces have blended themselves irrecoverably with the firmer texture of youth and manhood; and so it comes that we can look on at the troubles of our children with a smiling disbelief in the reality of their pain. Is there anyone who can recover the experience of his childhood, not merely with a memory of what he did and what happened to him, of what he liked and disliked when he was in frock and trousers, but with an intimate penetration, a revived consciousness of what he felt when——when it was so long from one Midsummer to another? What he felt when his schoolfellows shut him out of their game because he would pitch the ball wrong out of mere wilfulness; or on a rainy day in the holidays, when he didn't k... (查看原文)
Oh, Aristotle, if you had had the advantage of being "the freshest modern" instead of the greatest ancient, would you not have mingled your praise of metaphorical speech as a sign of high intelligence with a lamentation that intelligence so rarely shows itself in sppech without metaphor that we can so seldom declare what a thing is except by saying it is something else?

大一的时候写的论文，今天随手翻到就扔上来了。 FEMININE is more often than not used as a negative adjective to describe the fragile feature of women. Even Shakespeare expressed such view through the mouth of Hamlet, ‘fragile, your name is woman.’ Yet is fra...

Sometimes I feel learning is a kind of enjoyment allowing me to drift into that somewhere quite near to my truest self, while now and then I feel quite suffocated and isolated from the real world. When I read a novel, I may feel the same pain from which the...

George Eliot (May Ann Evans), one of the finest novelists in the Victorian period, denouncing “the silly novels by lady novelists”, has bestowed another well-crafted art piece on me, her near-autobiographical novel of The Mill On the Floss. We have a stro...

In “The Mill On the Floss”, George Eliot vividly depicts Maggie's intelligent, enthusiastic, courageous and innocent personality, as well as her independent spirit and perseverance in upholding morality. This novel transcends the accusation of women's une...

乔治艾略特对小麦琪真倾心，花了太多笔墨写她心理。

写得真美。只有女性才有这样细腻的心地，能写出种种幽微复杂的情感吧~谁能不爱麦琪呢？最后一幕就像一幅色彩浓重的油画，几乎把我带入到超现实的、似真似幻的朦胧中去了。

从《土星之环》中描写风车、磨坊遗迹的段落又追溯到这本书。这是我第一次真正感受到穿越子午线的诡异。

视野开阔、思想深沉的人们对满嘴格言警句的人都本能地怀有强烈的反感。因为他们清楚地知道，我们的生活神秘莫测，扑朔迷离，绝非格言警句能统而包揽。他们知道，如果把我们自己硬往那样的公式里套，就意味着压制我们全部的天赋激励和思想火花，这来自我们不断扩展的洞察力和同情心。

作者的评论干预太多了，每个人物的性格意图太过明显，情节也乏味啊乏味。不管神马河流意象，叙述角度，读起来太生硬太无聊了！！！！！

7。成长就是男性不断向上争夺，女性不断向下滑落；最后都被联结一切的洪水所摧毁。 正面点出了社会对性别的不同期待与规训，但仍会显出自身矛盾：牺牲自我、克制激情的道德性vs冲击性别文化的反抗性。

爱与责任，这本是值得赞扬、熠熠生辉的人性光辉，却与生动演绎着人言可畏与性别双重标准的社会关系网联手将一直忍受着孤独的麦琪投入弗洛斯河长着大口的湍急河流之中…她的孤独也好，落寞也好，挣扎也好，时代之河上流的道德意识也好，终于陷入沉寂，被无情的大水冲走。于是我忍不住开始怀疑，天降大水也许不是上帝的惩罚，而是慈悲的上帝流下的眼泪，为了带走其实并不属于那个时代可怜孤独的麦琪…

太久没读这类书，又在忙碌的毕业季，有点痛苦，又有点享受。小说的复杂和成功就在于对一个人性格的塑造，这本书里很多人物性格都是多面的。玛吉作为一个女性，也是悲剧的来源吧，一生追求别人的认同，但又有自我意识选择了朋友的未婚夫斯蒂芬，她不道德但又回到小镇拯救市民。还有那个老威根姆，狡诈又爱子，为了孩子可以放下仇恨。还有那些姨妈、玛吉的父母。人性是复杂的，人与人的关系也是复杂的，文笔有限，但每次看完这些东西... 太久没读这类书，又在忙碌的毕业季，有点痛苦，又有点享受。小说的复杂和成功就在于对一个人性格的塑造，这本书里很多人物性格都是多面的。玛吉作为一个女性，也是悲剧的来源吧，一生追求别人的认同，但又有自我意识选择了朋友的未婚夫斯蒂芬，她不道德但又回到小镇拯救市民。还有那个老威根姆，狡诈又爱子，为了孩子可以放下仇恨。还有那些姨妈、玛吉的父母。人性是复杂的，人与人的关系也是复杂的，文笔有限，但每次看完这些东西都好感叹。 (展开)
