My University vividly presents the ugly image of ignorant, backward, ignorant, despicable, savage, cruel and snobbish farmers, which makes readers feel angry, sorry and sorry. At that time, Russian society was not afraid of farmers' silence, but was afraid that farmers would drift with the tide, lose their own thoughts and virtues, and lack their own value judgments. A farmer is kind, but a group of farmers may become thugs. Good people want to help them change the status quo, which in turn will hurt good people. At that time, it was very difficult and difficult to touch the peasants' deep-rooted feudal ideas and change their servility. For the change of ideas, don't rush for success, let alone use shock therapy. First of all, we should change their economic base, change their mode of production and lifestyle, so that they will not work in vain.

Based on what Alexa saw, heard and felt in this social university, my university vividly showed readers the decadent trend of the old Russian society and the ugliness of human nature at that time. Bloody history tells readers that knowledge is power. At that time, the bitter experience of Russian social intellectuals also made readers cry. Revolutionaries can't starve the people of Ming Dow, but they must give them tangible material benefits. Intellectuals are too weak to unite all forces that can be United and have no mass base. In the end, he was persecuted by workers and could not even protect himself.

In the book, Aletha and the people around him are unhappy. If we have to find a reason for this misfortune, it may be the living environment of that society. In this work, Gorky focuses on the citizens living at the bottom of society, and through the description of these citizens, he shows the morbidness of society and human nature. Therefore, the characters in the works are an important starting point for the author to express his thoughts and opinions. In this work, Aletha is the embodiment of Gorky in childhood. When he was very young, his father died of illness, and his mother took Alisha home alone. But when they returned to their grandparents' home, their living conditions did not improve. Alisha's two uncles began to argue about separation, fearing that their mother would take their property. Later, the novel describes these people in grandparents' homes, which fully shows the selfishness and indifference of ordinary citizens.

Gorky reflected the life of Russian intellectuals at that time and the activities of populists against the czar's rule with his own brush strokes in My University, and showed the ideological status of Russian intellectuals in this period. In Gorky's autobiographical novels, we can see that Gorky hated the ugly reality of Russia in his youth and has been trying to explore the way of life. He once fantasized about becoming a robber, robbing the rich, helping the poor or praying to God to improve people's lives, but he was still young. Of course, this is just a naive fantasy. In a large number of critical realism works, Gorky contacted many intellectuals with revolutionary feelings and wanted to find a new way of life from them.
