(1) david copperfield david copperfield david copperfield, the hero of david copperfield, was once an orphan. The writer described the process of his growth from an orphan to a bourgeois democratic writer with humanitarian spirit. He is kind, sincere, intelligent, studious, with self-improvement courage, indomitable perseverance and enterprising spirit, full of confidence in adversity, redoubled efforts in prosperity, and finally achieved career success and family happiness. Dickens' moral ideal is pinned on this character. (2) Female Images in david copperfield In Dickens' works, david copperfield created a series of flesh-and-blood characters, and everyone left a deep impression, especially successfully created female images with different personalities and virtues: Aunt Bessie, Ennis, Peggy, Clara, Dora, Miss Maud Si Tong, Lady Micawber, Aunt Emily Bessie ... The contrast between Clara, Dora and Ennis makes them more distinct, and their love for Bessie menstruation, Ennis and Peggotty is deeper. They hate Miss Maud Si Tong more, and are sympathetic and angry with Dora and Clara. Miss Maud Si Tong is the bane of David's childhood and the stepfather's sister. Miss Maud Si Tong is extremely ruthless. From the moment she appeared, her character was established: her face was gloomy, her skin was dark, her voice was masculine, her two heavy eyebrows were connected, and the steel wallet clicked when it was closed, as if she were biting someone hard. In Dickens' works, inanimate things become alive, and she dresses up with steel handcuffs and rivets. These are the portrayal of this cold-blooded steel woman's character. Miss Maud Si Tong is a real man and woman. She hates men, but she has a man's face She doesn't have the tenderness, love and sympathy of a woman. She and her brother have been torturing poor Clara. They regard David as a thorn in their side and torture David by various means, causing David's childhood pain. Later, Dora's gloomy shadow appeared in her home. Aunt Bessie is similar to Miss Maud Si Tong in some respects, but they are essentially different: Aunt Bessie is eccentric, she is very sensitive to donkeys, and the donkey passing by the front lawn is the most angry thing in her life. She is maverick, dare to say and do, regardless of the secular vision, slightly masculine and rational, but Aunt Bessie is loving, kind, kind, soft-hearted and affectionate. Although she hated boys, after David defected to her, she took David in and scolded Maud Si Tong's brothers and sisters heartily. Her teaching to David: never humble, never hypocritical, never cruel, which can be the motto of a person's standing and acting. Under her care, David grew up healthily and became a famous writer. Aunt Bessie pitied Dick, took him in, appreciated him and gave him a comfortable life. She is Jenny's guardian and also supervises others, educates them and teaches them to protect themselves. She loves Dora very much, doesn't dislike her at all, and gives her a lovely name: Xiaohua. Aunt Bessie still has not forgotten her husband. Even if he abandoned her and found another lover and became a homeless man with nothing, she would give it to Aunt Bessie as long as he asked for money. Although threatened by him, it also shows that Aunt Bessie is affectionate and righteous. Aunt Bessie is a very smart and capable woman. She knows a lot about business activities. When she went bankrupt, she concealed 2000 pounds of property. She did this on purpose, in order to cultivate David, so that he can learn to adapt to difficulties, overcome difficulties and shoulder the heavy responsibility of life. I gave David a good exercise during that time, and I proved my ability with my own efforts, which was worthy of Aunt Bessie's painstaking efforts. Aunt Bessie is eccentric and eccentric, but she is respectable and trustworthy. Clara Clara and Dora are also very similar. They are all young, beautiful, naive, naive and kind. The difference between them is that Clara's fate is even more tragic. Her husband died after only one year of marriage. The second husband, Maud Si Tong, was a cold, greedy and cruel businessman. He married Clara purely for money, and the naive Clara didn't realize it. Coupled with the torture of Miss Maud Si Tong, she lost any freedom, even the right to love her children. Finally, she was miserable in sadness, loneliness and fear. However, Clara is more than just a doll. She has knowledge and insight, and can teach herself David. She can also look after the house. She also has a good servant and friend-Peggotty. Dora Dora is my favorite person. David was deeply attracted by her at first sight, as if there were only him and his lovely "little flower" in the whole world. David loved her so much, held it in his hand and put it in his heart, and Aunt Bessie loved her, too. She is naive, beautiful and kind. Although she knows nothing about housework and makes a mess of things, she is so kind and loves David. At the end of her life, she entrusted her most precious legacy-beloved husband-to her friend Ennis, hoping that her husband would live a happy life after he left. She is very selfless. The lovely "doll wife" Dora is so mature and unforgettable at this time. Ennis Ennis is almost impeccable in appearance, morality, knowledge and thought. She is beautiful and dignified, generous and decent, gentle and kind, quiet and steady, considerate and thoughtful, with keen insight, strong personality and will, and tolerant and caring heart. She is David's spiritual pillar and a beautiful angel, and anyone will be extremely proud of having such a bosom friend. Ennis has been his father's housekeeper and spiritual comfort since childhood. Because of her love for her father, she matured prematurely and assumed the responsibility of taking care of her father. For the sake of her father, she had to please Heep, a despicable person, but she would never give in to Heep, nor would she let Heep's sinister purpose succeed. Although Ennis doesn't have much contact with Steve, she can see the danger of him around David from every little thing. Her insight is keen, and compared with David's emotional worship of Steve, Ennis is rational. Ennis's love for David is deep and lasting. She has been silently in love with David, but David is slow to respond and blind in the pursuit of love. "Guagua is not sweet." "The biggest difference between husband and wife is disagreement." Mrs strong's words caused a stir in David's heart. After Dora died, after many difficulties and years of overseas experience, David finally understood his love for Ennis and they got married. Ennis is David's ideal companion, both in career and life. For David, the favorite woman is Dora and the most admired woman is Ennis. In David's growing experience, Peggotty can't help but mention another person-Peggotty, David's old wet nurse. She is also an amazing woman. Childhood David grew up happily with her care and company, and adult David still received her meticulous care. Peggotty was loyal to David's mother and son. She is both a servant and a relative. After David was beaten black and blue by his stepfather, she was locked in her room and her mother was afraid to see him. Only Peggotty comforted him along the keyhole. No matter where she is, she always takes care of David, and her family will always have David's place. Her love for David is so sincere and simple, and her heart is kind. All her kind and simple people are also capable of doing housework and are in good order. Other characters in addition, Mr. Peggotty, who is kind and simple in love, Ham, who is hardworking and honest, and the Micawbers, who have been replaced by life but are optimistic and cheerful, are in sharp contrast with Maud Si Tong's brothers and sisters who are greedy and cold, Heep, a treacherous and despicable villain, and Steve, a treacherous and insidious dude, making beauty more beautiful and ugly. Hamm's death is completely different from Stepford's. Stepford's death is the retribution for his treachery, and Hamm is the highest embodiment of Dickens' humanitarian ideal of fraternity and tolerance. Characterization david copperfield is a typical kind, kind, honest, diligent, pragmatic and enterprising intellectual. David lost his father when he was a child, and his mother remarried and died after being abused by her stepfather. He was sent to a boarding school and was badly hit. Later, he was sent to a factory as an apprentice. Being humiliated, he left the factory and went to his aunt's house. My aunt raised him to study law. His character matured in hardships and setbacks, and finally embarked on the right path of life. Later, she became a writer and married her beloved girlfriend. In his tortuous life, although there have been wrong thoughts, absurd behaviors, sad moments and depressed days, his aunt's words "never be mean and selfish, never be hypocritical and cruel" have become his motto. Both the hardships and bitterness he encountered as an orphan and his indomitable struggle as an adult show the painful course of a little person seeking a way out in capitalist society. After experiencing great suffering, David tasted the happiness and warmth of the world. He relied on his sincere and straightforward personality, positive spirit and pure and friendly heart towards people. Ennis is also the ideal woman that the author tries to beautify. She has both external beauty and internal virtue, insisting on protecting her father who was bullied by Heep and supporting David who suffered setbacks. The final combination between her and David is "the consistency of thought and purpose", and this perfect marriage makes the ending of the novel full of happiness and hope. Micawber was David's landlord when he was a child laborer, and later became David's best friend. He was imprisoned several times because he was unable to pay his debts. He is naturally vain, extravagant, unrealistic and unwilling to keep his feet on the ground. He is often heavily in debt. When he was imprisoned in Sedeke's Queen's Court for debts, he warned David: "If a person receives 20 pounds a year and spends 19 pounds 19 shillings and 6 pence, he will be happy, but if he spends 20 pounds 1 shilling, he will suffer." After such painful regret, he immediately borrowed a shilling from David to buy beer and became happy again. He is really an optimist. In addition, he has a kind and upright side. When he was working as a secretary for Heep, he stood up after a fierce ideological struggle and exposed Heep's plot to frame Mr. wakefield, which led to Miss Betsy's bankruptcy. Miss Betsy thanked him and sponsored him to go to Australia, where he had a successful career and a good ending. Micawber's image is very distinct, especially his character of "not worrying about debts and being happy in know life", which makes him a typical literary figure. Even as a word, "Micawber" is accepted in general English dictionaries, which shows the success of this characterization and its great influence. 1, Steerforth in David's eyes can be said that David actually worships Steerforth, but Steerforth is a bourgeois egoist with beautiful appearance and despicable heart, who cheated Emily. He is unruly and grumpy. He has four main evils here: 1. Framing Mr Mayer cost him his job. In chapter 7, Mr. Meyer says, "James Steerforth, my greatest hope for you is that one day you will be ashamed of your behavior today." At this moment, I don't want to treat you as my friend any more, and I don't want to treat you as a friend of anyone I care about. "Second, the disfigured Miss Chet. Chapter 56: "Because you are proud of him and spoil him, when did he do it and ruin my face all my life?" "Look at me, I will die with his extremely cold traces; Groan and sigh for what you have done to him! " Miss chet loves and hates him. Third, she tricked Emily into ruining her family happiness. Fourth, I betrayed David's friendship. So why does David worship him so much? Let's see before they met: david copperfield's father died before he came into this world, and he grew up under the care of his mother and maid Peggotty. Soon, his mother remarried, and his late father, Maud Si Tong, was fierce and greedy. He regarded David as a burden and sent him to Peggotty's brother's house before marriage. After David came home, his stepmother often beat him, depriving his mother of his care and caress. His stepfather and sister treated him badly and sent him to a bad boarding school, where he was "educated" by the devil's principal. At this time, he was only eight years old and had just entered school. He was hung with a "beware of biting" card. When he was taken to Steerforth, the article wrote: However, I was not really accepted by the school until Jane Steerforth came. He is famous for his profound knowledge and handsome, at least six years older than me. I was brought before him as if I were brought before the Lord Chancellor. In a shed on the playground, he carefully asked me about my punishment, and then proudly expressed his opinion-"What a shame." So I've been dead set on him ever since. In fact, David really wants to resist what happened to him, but can he? Therefore, when Steerforth said an "outrageous" word to him, it seemed to be a relief to him, and Steerforth's majestic words upheld justice for him. David is very inferior to his background and situation, and he has a sense of fear and insecurity psychologically. He needs a strong and brave protector, and this protector is Steerforth, but Steerforth is not his imaginary protector. What really protects him is just a hope and dream in David's heart. At that time, David gave him the money to keep, saying that it was actually how Steerforth helped him use it, how to make everyone happy with his money, and in the final analysis, how to make himself happy. It is Steerforth's cleverness and his meanness that can let others know that he is still happy even though he is using others. But at that time, David thought he was his protector. He not only gave him money to keep, but also told him stories when Steerforth was sleepy. At that time, Steerforth had a high prestige in the school. He was not afraid of the cruel headmaster, but also won the heart of the headmaster's daughter. When Mr Mayer lost his job, he took his place in the class. He is the king there. In David's opinion, he is very talented. Nothing seems to beat him. He treats people well and has a good eloquence. All this made David begin to worship him. In fact, the tall image of Steerforth in David's eyes is the tall image he hopes to achieve. He is still a man. He wants to be independent and self-reliant. This is also the character image created by Dickens in this work: sincere, frank and positive. David's worship of Steerforth is actually his pursuit of ideal image. This is an indomitable struggle. Until he saw Steerforth again, he cried with joy. Steerforth said, "You are really a daisy. The daisy in the field is no more tender than you at sunrise! " David's pure love for people makes Steerforth feel lovely. Steerforth is the image he has always admired. Even Anne couldn't change this until the truth finally came out, which made him very painful. David seemed relatively calm in the face of Steerforth's death. Why? Steerforth's death is also a special arrangement of Dickens, which embodies Dickens' own moral concept: "Good is rewarded with good, and evil with evil". Look at David now. He experienced all kinds of hardships and bitterness in his orphan days, as well as twists and turns in his adulthood, such as the bankruptcy of Bessie menstruation, the tempering of love, the failure of marriage, the tempering of work and the death of Dora. He really grew up and became independent, and he saw many people in these changes. But he still maintains a positive heart and has a firm belief. But in any case, Steerforth is still the object of his worship in David's eyes. The tall image in his heart, his ideal admiration, is like a tombstone, which will last forever. What really died in his eyes was the contemptible Steerforth, and in his eyes Steerforth did not leave. From this, we believe that our attitude towards a person is often related to ourselves, and it is easy for us to weigh the weight of others and reconstruct ourselves. In David's view, Steerforth was built according to his own needs and hopes. Fortunately, his hope building is Steerforth in his eyes, which points out the signpost for his lonely and bitter childhood and makes him firm in his belief and positive. However, compared with our resurgent groupies, they are always chasing blindly, following the clothes, even actions and voices of handsome guys and beautiful women. No matter how bizarre the imitation is, don't give up. Like the year before last, Yang Lijuan's blind follow-up to Andy Lau was unprecedented. In fact, we know a person, look at a person, the real thing is to filter out his impetuousness through his gorgeous surface and know his true connotation. That's the shining point of gold. Confucius said, "Choose the good and follow it." We believe that one should have one's own opinions when reading, but one should also choose the good ones and follow them. "The three must learn from each other's strengths", and modernity is the era of resource sharing. We need to explore excellent resources with discerning eyes, strive for mutual sharing and promotion, and move towards a win-win situation.
