"Hard Times" is regarded as one of Dickens' darker novels. It introduces the character of Thomas Gradgrind. Like many of Dickens' characters, Gradgrind's name tells the reader much of what they need to know. As schoolmaster Gradgrind says, "Now, what I want is, Facts. Teach these boys and girls nothing but Facts. Facts alone are wanted in life. Plant nothing else, and root out everything else. You can only form the minds of reasoning animals upon Facts: nothing else will ever be of any service to them. This is the principle on which I bring up my own children, and this is the principle on which I bring up these children. Stick to Facts, sir " Gradgrind's factual upbringing dooms his children, Tom and Louisa, in different ways. The book is set in "Coketown," an industrial city. Because of its treatment of the role of factory work, as well as education, in society, "Hard Times" was thought to be a "socialist" work at the time of its publication. It was also written during a time when Dickens was experiencing trouble in his own marriage, and it features a number of unhappy couples and much family discord. Less popular at its publication than many of other Dickens' works, "Hard Times" remains one of the most-taught of Dickens' major books, possibly because of the group, it is the shortest.

評分 評分1、奥威尔 (1)狄更斯不是“无产阶级”作家。他从不写无产阶级,在这点上他和古往今来的绝大多数小说家一样。如果要在小说,尤其是英国小说中寻找工人阶级的身影,最后只能是徒劳。狄更斯小说的中心情节几乎总是发生在中产阶级环境中。仔细研究他的小说,你会发现它们真正的题...
評分 評分开头那一段说马的,真心震撼。现在还记得清清楚楚。那一大段描述,将孩子们被洗脑成维基百科的那种范儿,太厉害了。让人痛心那些孩子,从小再没有想象力,只剩下一个一个明确定义的名词,和所谓的fact。 读到后面会觉得无趣。原作的英文也确实不算简单,毕竟是19世纪的作品,很...
