"Vanity Fair", Thackeray's panoramic, satirical saga of corruption at all levels of English society, was published in 1847 but set during the Napoleonic Wars. It chronicles the lives of two women who could not be more different: Becky Sharp, an orphan whose only resources are her vast ambitions, her native wit, and her loose morals; and her schoolmate Amelia Sedley, a typically naive Victorian heroine, the pampered daughter of a wealthy family. Becky's fluctuating fortunes eventually bring her to an affair with Amelia's dissolute husband; when he is killed at Waterloo, Amelia and her child are left penniless, while Becky and her husband Rawdon Crawley rise in the world, managing to lead a high life in London solely on the basis of their shrewdness.(The chapter entitled "How to Live on Nothing" is a classic.) Thackeray's subtitle, "A Novel Without a Hero," is understating the case; his view of humanity in this novel is distinctly bleak and deliberately antiheroic. Critics of the time misunderstood the book, decrying it as (among other things) vicious, vile, and odious. But "Vanity Fair" has endured as one of the great comic novels of all time, and a landmark in the history of realism in fiction.
爱米利亚是我论文的人物分析对象。为什么会选爱米利亚•赛特笠,而不是《名利场》中无论在样貌、口才、技能各个方面都更胜、更吸人眼球的利蓓加•夏泼呢? 因为爱米莉亚的性格实在是很有趣。《名利场》的作者萨克雷开篇就说了,这小姑娘“心地厚道,性格温柔可疼,为人又...

评分都宾先生在全书结尾处,万念俱灰,放弃了追求了多年的爱人,不由得要拿席勒名诗《华伦斯坦》中的句子来安慰自己。刚才我一激动,也想拿这句话做签名,但是转念又想,华伦斯坦是何等人,配说这句话的我,现在大概还没出世。都宾倒是有五分资格来说这话,他亲历滑铁卢战役,一生...

我想写写“关于女性的社会角色”这个话题
评分Sheer fun of climbing to the top of vanity fair .
评分读了一本缩减版的内容,后期找一找有声书和完整版再来读一遍。主角B正是我们周围的每一个人,精心的往上爬,只是大家的方式不一样。反而B有太多优点和优势多数人现在都不具备。
评分英文原版被我读了一半之后很不厚道地故意留在家里了……T_T
评分美丽的语言 吸引人的情节 好想多看几本这样的小说啊
