Reading Notes of Pride and Prejudice
“It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.” This beginning sentence of the book seems to tell us the main story of the book is about the marriage of rich men. The heroine of the book is Elizabeth and at the chapter One, we are told that the father Mr. Bennet prefers Elizabeth among his daughters, in this case, Elizabeth must be a girl who is more special and intelligent.
The story is about love and marriage. Charlotte married Collins because his fortune and she feels nervous about her age even the man is so old-fashioned and ingratiating. However, their marriage is about money and they do not get the real happy. The other man Wickham is a handsome but a man who is a liar. He lies to Elizabeth to gain her appreciation. And his love with Lydia is shallow and about appearance. The love of Jane and Bingley has a better ending. They have love in the relationship and appreciate each other because of the deeper virtue. But they do come through a lot because the misunderstanding they had before.
The love of Elizabeth and the hero of the book Darcy responses the title Pride and Prejudice. In the eye of Elizabeth, Darcy is no doubt pride and arrogant. Darcy falls in love with Elizabeth and proposes marriage to her, but he is still very arrogant so Elizabeth refuses him directly. Darcy
feels hard hit and regrets of being arrogant. However, Elizabeth has a prejudice about Darcy at the very beginning and mistaken believes in Wickham but she finally knows the truth and feels shame of her family. Darcy moves Elizabeth with his pleasant virtue in the end.
这本书在我的书架很久了,这几天突然想着看完。开头的时候我很急躁,没有特别触动我的点,但是越看越令我动容,看到尾声时禁不住流泪。也正是随着保罗生命的不断消逝,让我不得不怀着畏惧而又敬畏的心态,经历这场落幕,这是一个很残忍的过程。
作者在生命垂危的最后时刻依然全身心的\'写作,毫不避讳的直面死亡,让读者能对死亡和癌症有更深刻的认识,这真的很了不起。看完这本书我的确对死亡有了更深的认识,究竟是接受关怀治疗关注生命的质量还是选择疗效好的手段延长生命的长度?在生命的最后是选择自己的理想还是家人的陪伴?如何与疾病抗争?如何安慰自我?
面对这样的悲剧,我想保罗应当是同样不幸遭遇中最为幸福的人,他的家人给予他最温暖的抚慰和陪伴,他的伴侣能够如此尊重和理解他,他的人文修养使他能够比常人更为清醒而理性地理解疾病和死亡。
我惧怕死亡,我曾经想过如果我得病了一定选择安乐死,但看完这本书我有些动摇,痛苦也应当经历,否则人生不是完整的。
这本书的真正让人读后难以忘怀就是因为作者没有去写生存的意义,没有为我们灌死亡的心灵鸡汤,面对绝症他有怀疑,悲伤,有苦痛但却没有感受他的绝望与歇斯底里,而是把自己的人生与对待死亡的态度像我们娓娓道来。
就像译者所说的那样,读这本书之前我们虽然知道作者保罗已经离世,虽然有这个认知,然而在读这本书的时候却没有什么别样感觉,就像作者向你讲一个其他人的故事一样,然而越往后这种感觉就越真实,尤其在读到作者妻子写的后记的时候才真真实实明白,哦,原来作者是真的离世了。这时候才真正明白前面那些貌似漫不经心的人生故事原来就是一个人鲜活的人生。保罗的形象会渐渐在我的心里鲜活起来。
再回顾作者面对癌症的经历,没有绝望,也没有奋斗,没有在生命的尽头大快朵颐及时行乐,而是继续着为人的日常,探寻着为医者,为夫者,为父者的意义,这样平常的人生反而不寻常。却向我们传达一个信息,他的人生本来就是有意义的,也不禁让我反思,我的生活呢?尤其后面每当看到他描写的每一个生命最后的其乐融融的时刻,却远比控诉所表达的情感让人感觉强烈,有多少欢乐,在这欢乐下面就会隐藏着多少伤痛。
像译者说的那样,带着这份淤积的情感,是很有必要再重新回顾这本书的。或许再读就能真正理解保罗想真正传达给我们的是什么了。
