《安娜·卡列尼娜》 读后感
当看完列夫·托尔斯泰的《安娜·卡列尼娜》,对女主人公失足到最后卧轨自杀,悲痛万分;而当了解普希金的《叶甫盖尼·奥涅金》的女主人公达吉雅娜因坚定信念,不受诱惑而身心轻松,“处污泥而不染”令人敬佩之至。两人都是少女时期被嫁于自己不爱之人,她们没有自由选择婚姻的权利。安娜嫁给一个大她二十岁的省长,而达吉雅娜嫁给一个肥胖的将军。
安娜出身贵族,如果说是因为她对自由爱情执着追求、对卡列宁没有感情而出轨,不如说她内心空虚,没有抵抗外界诱惑的能力,不能坚定信念,对百无聊赖的生活的寂寞、通过参加各种交际场合来打发时间。她对爱情生活的追求实际上是对爱欲的放纵追求,她抛弃了丈夫、儿子,抛弃与她的一切联系的虚伪的上流交际圈,不听丈夫劝说,义无返顾的与伏伦斯基私奔,在享受过她自己所想要的生活、爱情后,也就是尽情享受二人世界的欢乐与幸福后,发现这其实并非自己最想的“幸福生活”,思念儿子的折磨,社会不公平对待,甚至她觉得伏伦斯基不在乎她了,这事她最致命的弱点,他将爱情错当成了生命的全部,没有理性的思考,做出的犯下的一系列错误已经无法挽回,她想紧紧抓住他,想牢牢控制他,她听到关于伏伦斯基的母亲要给他找一个门当户对的小姐结婚的流言时,她恐惧,不安,随着恐惧增加,做出的不可理喻举动更让伏伦斯基难以忍受,开始反感这个的视他为一切的可怜的女人,致使安娜受不了这种被抛弃的心理打击,最终采取极端方式结束自己的生命。但是我们可以感受到安娜强烈的反叛精神,她有勇气能够不顾一切踏出私奔这条道路,这种追求人性、自然欲望的精神令人只是感叹,只是结局留给我们遗憾之感,。
而达吉雅娜出生远离城市的乡村,与淳朴人民联系密切,她的真诚、善良,在自然的怀抱下,她喜欢在黎明之前在露台迎接朝霞,喜欢在幽静的花园里散步,她爱俄罗斯夏夜的美妙,更爱俄罗斯冬天冰雪的灿烂,与自然的亲密接触,增强她内心情感的丰富。她的不幸是喜欢上了一个比她精神生活空虚的多的人,他是不能理解她的纯真与真诚,是一个无法在社会上找到自己的位置、无法承受爱情的人。当奥涅金再次在莫斯科遇见她时,达吉雅娜已成为一位将军夫人,雍容华贵的气质和落落大方的风度,使她在虚伪上流社会像“出水芙蓉”一样亭亭玉立,优雅迷人。面对自己曾经喜欢过的人,她对待他的态度更显示她精神世界的纯洁高尚:“我爱你(又何必要假装呢?)可是,既然我已嫁给别人,我就要一辈子对他忠诚。”她胸襟坦荡,光明磊落,不愿意过二重精神生活,这种对自己行为负责的人生态度集中展现她的精神美。而这种精神美与她青少年时期所生活的环境密切相关。当她拒绝奥涅金时曾经表白:“如今我甘心情愿,拿这些无聊的假面舞会,这浮华、繁忙、空虚的生活,换回一架子书、一个荒凉的花园,换回我们寒酸的房子,换回我最初和他见面的那些地方,换回那一个朴素的坟墓,那儿,在十字架和树荫下面,躺着我的可怜的保姆。”感情真挚,自然,单纯,只有那身处浮华而不受熏染的人能说出这样的话语。
这两个同是俄国土壤孕育出的女性,虽然她们有着相似的生活经历,但她们做出的人生选择造成不同的结局。我们从书中得到的道理与智慧永远给我们启迪,给人指明方向,
第二篇:安娜卡列尼娜英语读后感
安娜卡列尼娜英语读后感
The story for "Anna Karenina" apparently came out of an episode in which Leo Tolstoy arrived at a railway station shortly after a young woman had committed suicide. She had been the mistress of a neighboring landowner, and the incident stuck in his mind
As Tolstoy biographer Henri Troyat writes, "A dreadful lesson was brought home to him He tried to imagine the existence of this poor woman who had given all for love, only to meet with such a trite, ugly death." Then, Troyat says, "Her image haunted him for a long time, but not specifically as material for a book."
When Tolstoy finally started the story of "Anna Karenina," his wife reported in a letter to her sister, "Yesterday Leo suddenly started to write a novel on contemporary life. The subject is the unfaithful wife and all the ensuing tragedy."
So, Tolstoy creates the character of Anna Karenina, a young woman who finds herself in a loveless marriage with Karenin. It might not have seemed so intolerable if she had not met and fallen in love with Count Vronsky.
As a comparison to Anna''s tragic affair, we hear about the relationship between Kitty and Levin, a conjugal love match. Levin is first rejected by Kitty, since she has her heart set on Count Vronsky. Since Vronsky''s affections are already taken by Anna Karenina, Kitty''s heart is broken and she eventually turns back to Levin for love and marriage.
In the character of Anna, Tolstoy creates a woman who is perhaps most unhappily destined for tragedy. Anna falls in love with Count Vronsky, only to find that her passions are uncontrollable. She might have continued the relationship in secret, but she defies the "rules," and is forced to pay the ultimate price She loses all contact with her son; and she is shunned from proper society. In the "Notes," Neville Jason writes, "Thus the forces of society gradually bear down upon Anna with the same insensibility and inexorable momentum as the iron monster, which finally crushes the life out of her body on the railway line.
