Who has seen A Tale of Two Cities? I write a paper about inner humanity! Give some advice!
This novel depicts three types of characters. One is the feudal aristocracy represented by the brothers of Marquis de Evremonde, whose "only unshakable philosophy is to oppress the people", which is the object of the author's painful criticism.

The other is the revolutionary masses such as Defarge and his wife. It must be pointed out that their image is distorted. For example, Defarge's wife, Di Anna, was born in an insulted and persecuted peasant family and had a deep hatred for feudal nobles. The author deeply sympathizes with her tragic experience and appreciates her strong personality, outstanding intelligence and extraordinary organizational leadership before and after the revolution. However, when the revolution deepened, she changed a pen and denounced her as a cold, fierce and narrow-minded avenger. Especially when she went to the doctor's residence to look for Lucy and Lucy, she was a bloodthirsty madman. Finally, the author let her die under his own gun, clearly expressing a negative attitude.

The third category is idealized figures, which are examples in the author's mind of solving social contradictions with humanitarianism and overcoming hatred with fraternity, including Meynet's father and daughter, Darnay, Laurie and Kalden. Doctor Manette was destroyed by the Marquis brothers. He had a deep hatred for the Marquis brothers, but for the love of his daughter, he could abandon his old hatred. Darnay is the nephew of the Marquis brothers. He was fully aware that he had condemned the sins of his family, abandoned his title and property, and was determined to "atone" with his own actions.
