The sea wolf
At the first sight of "sea wolf ",what come to my mind is that it must talk about the relationship between an animal and human.It may deals with the problem :How can a person gain Trust from an animal?How can they be friends?However,when I finished the first pages, things come in a total different way."Sea wolf "is not an animal but a person called Wolf Larsen,whose so–called nick name is"Sea wolf".
"The Sea wolf"began with leading character,Van Weyden's meeting danger on a ferry boat,which collide with another one in a fog day.Strikingly, he seems to be the only survival resecued by"The Ghost",a ship whose captain is "Sea Wolf".
The whole story focus on "Sea wolf",who has a misconception about life.For him,life has no order,no meaning.It. moves and may move for a minute,an hour,a year,or100years.The big creatures eat the little ones,so that they may continue to move.The strong ones eat the weak,so that they may keep their strength.Due to such kind of thought,he behave badly to his sailors: beat to death,even badly and cruelly to those NEET groups–he come up with a way to make these NEET groups work to live.Despite these awkward actions,He is quite knowledgable,insightful,and interested in a variety of books: Shakespeare,Tennyson,Poe,Darwin."How well he thought,and he said what he thought"as VanWeyden said.
Van Weyden,another leading character ,is a gentleman,writer and NEET group.What he has suffered on the "Ghost" canbe regarded as his "growth record"from a mama'boy to a masculine. Maude,the mere lady on the"Ghost",her coming add a little difference to life on ship——relationship between sailors turn out right.
Starting from the first several chapters, I cannot figure out what the captain"Sea wolf"want and the inner mind of these sailors, for everything goes on quite normally.It seems everyone have no complaints.Even they have,they dare not speak it out.
As I come to Middle part, things what the author want to reveal began to unveil.The author began to answer the question"why does sea wolf. badly treat his sailor,what does life mean to him?"
As time passed by,Van Weyden and Maud managed to grasp the opportunity and espaced from the "Ghost" with wisdom.At a time they both were indulged in the pleasure for their espacing and their survival in the barren island.Soon or later,something unexpected
happened.The"Ghost" arrived at the island."Sea wolf "once again enter into their life,which
puzzled and worried them a lot,for they are afraid of "Sea wolf's strength.However,this time,"Sea wolf" is no longer what he used to be——he is blind,vernerable and terribly hurt.what he could do was to count for the days that he would the world.Apart from that,he tried every means to prevent Van Weyden and Maud from leaving the barren island with "Ghost" and to commit suicide.before long,"Sea wolf " joined the heavenly chior.It seems like his deeds receive revenge.
"Sea wolf " tries to unveil the truth,the real picture of the society."Ghost "is the epitome of the whole society during the late 19th century and early20th century.while the captain "sea wolf" and Van Weyden,all the sailors represent the different social class.Through such kind of
description of life on ship, the author shows us that people of lower class (sailors)without wisdom can never win the upper class,especially those who are poweful and have very strong backing.only those courageous and prudent will win the final.
