The essay chooses two of them: Tess and Marguerite. Tess was a typical example in British literature,while Marguerite was a typical example in French literature. Hardy and Dumas fils are the two who were greatly influenced by their own experiences; meanwhile,they witnessed the suffering of the women in the lower class of society. So they could vividly and truthfully depict the inner state of the women in their time. In fact,that's why the two characters were so real to the readers. Both of the two women were regarded as impure and unacceptable to the contemporary people,however,in the writer's eyes,they were not only pure,but also noble in nature. For although they suffered a lot after the turns in their lives,neither of them stopped treating others kindly. Especially when they found their true love,they courageously devoted to it. For their true love,they unexceptionally chose to suffer themselves in order to make their lovers happy after the strong conflict in their heart. In the end,each of the two won others' respect and their lovers' love and understanding.展开更多

Lawrence's"Tickets, Please"displays a wartime love story between Coddy and Annie. In their love affairs, Coddy, the man of impotence deems his freedom much as before while Annie switches back to the traditional female role to consider marriage as the ultimate goal.

Here, the weaker sex and the stronger sex are respectively and ironically embodied by Annie Stone and John Thomas Raynor. This paper analyzes the wartime setting, the tram girls and the love struggle between Annie and Coddy.

But in fact Maugham's philosophy is mainly focused on the meaning of life. Here in this book, through the description of Philip's suppressed emotion for the beauty of life and his untouchable passion for the atonement of his imperfectness, Maugham shows us his own philosophy of life that in this futile world, people are so powerless that we could do nothing in changing our fate. All our struggles are not against our fate, but against ourselves. In his mind, life is futile, meaningless, and when people realize this and accept their status quo, they would reach the source of happiness, but this kind of happiness is not for me. The arguments that I really want to show you is not only the pessimistic and cynical predetermination, but the enthusiasm to fight against our life even if we knew nothing would change.展开更多
