看久了卡通连环画，我想换换口味。于是在书架上拿了一本《德伯家的苔丝》看了起来。《苔丝》中亚雷有一句话：?美是要付出代价的。?苔丝用美换取了人们无限的?哀伤?，无论是愚蠢还是聪慧，都会被苔丝的?凄美?而伤。
暖人的友情!
喜欢哈代的抒情诗，其中不乏情节生动，语句隽永的作品。《德伯家的苔丝》是哈代最着名的长篇小说之一。这是个美丽凄凉的爱情故事。当我合上书，苔丝对克莱尔忠贞的爱情故事确实令我感动，但令我温暖的是和苔丝一起挤牛奶的3个可爱少女伊丝、玛丽安与雷蒂。她们也同苔丝一样深深爱着那个英俊少年克莱尔，但也深知克莱尔只爱苔丝，于是就把爱恋深深地埋在心里，而把祝福送给他们。我喜欢她们三个的纯洁的友谊和坦率的言行。就是在克莱尔无情地抛弃苔丝时，善良的伊丝也没落井下石，与克莱尔有过一段话：
?你非常非常爱我，伊丝克莱尔问到。
?是的我非常爱你，我一直都爱着你!?
?比苔丝更爱我吗
?不!?伊丝摇摇头低声说，?不如她爱你!?
?这话怎么说呢
?没有人比苔丝更爱你了。?
?因为她可以为你去死，而我无法做的。?
读到这里我心中一阵激动，我仿佛看到一个高尚的灵魂，左右了她那质朴敦厚的天性，这真是一个真正善良、真心待人的好姑娘呀，真令人感动。在苔丝回到娘家又身无分文时，因为失恋而酗酒的玛丽安又帮她找到了一份工作，使苔丝的生活又有了一丝光亮。在那些阴霾的日子中，温暖着苔丝冰冷的心的依然是这份暖人的友情
苔丝是不幸的，她的父母为了所谓的家庭荣耀，而让她去攀亲，而毁了自己。她最爱的人又无情地抛弃她，而她又是幸运的，在她短暂的一生中，在她遭遇爱情抛弃时，不离不弃的是那份温暖的友情。
为这份友情喝彩!
读完一本书以后，相信大家都有很多值得分享的`东西，是时候静下心来好好写写读后感了。现在你是否对读后感一筹莫展呢？以下是我为大家整理的《苔丝》英文读后感范文，仅供参考，欢迎大家阅读。
《苔丝》英文读后感 篇1She was seduced by a so-called gentleman—Alec, and from then on her life totally changed from this loss of innocence. People looked down on her and respected her no more. Actually she did nothing wrong because before she was seduced she knew nothing of men. She was just a girl when she first met that terrible man.
She was forced by the gossips and the church to blame herself for this accident, so she thought she deserved nothing good. In order to get rid of the past she decided to go to a distant dairy farm but was still saying to herself that she was wrong. Maybe God didn’t agree with that, because the Lord gave her someone she loved with her whole heart and life—Angel Chare. Angel popped the question to her but she refused him without saying why. She said she loved him deeply and perhaps no one in the world could love him more than she did but she could not marry him for some unspoken reason. Angel wasn’t satisfied with this vague answer and did his best to win Tess. Somehow she agreed and they soon fixed the wedding day. Soon after their wedding Angel confessed the crime he committed to a woman long time ago and asked for Tess’s forgiveness. Tess was not at all angry and forgave Angel at once; in fact she was rather happy and excited for she also had things to confess.
She sat and told everything to Angel, hoping he would forgive her as he was forgiven but she was wrong. She was not forgiven, not as she thought she was. The woman pays.
Without Angel’s love, nothing meant anything to her. The result wasn’t important now. Tess was arrested for her murder of that so-called gentleman. Why? She still loved Angel and when he finally went back to her and asked for HER forgiveness, after he regretted what he had done unfair to Tess, she was desperate. That was too late—Alec had always told Tess that Angel would never come back so he won Tess’s trust. Unluckily Angel did come back and found Tess.! Everything was too late!
Tess was deceived and she lost Angel for the second time! The strengh of her love was so strong that she had forgotten the difference between right and wrong. Before that she had done nothing wrong but when she killed Alec, everything really changed! She became a criminal! How could it be? She was as pure and innocent as the good wife in the Bible. Her whole character was honest and faithful. Angel figured out at last that a person should be judged not only on what he has done but also on what he wanted to do!
Tess didn’t want to be seduced by man and she had no power to defend herself so she lost her innocence and that’s all! Angel also did the wrong thing and it was even more serious than Tess’s crime but HE was not blamed for it. Why it is always the woman who pays? Why they are always hurt? Why was Tess’s girlish purity lost? Why does the wrong man take the wrong woman? Why do the bad often ruin the good? Why is beauty damaged by ugliness? Women are too weak! Thousands of years of history have shown us that women have always been treated unfairly!
《苔丝》英文读后感 篇2Why was Tess’s girlish purity lost? Why did such a beautiful, noble and pure woman as Tess should suffer inevitable ruin? Why does the wrong man take the wrong woman? Why it is always the woman who pays? Why they are always hurt? Why is beauty damaged by ugliness? Why the tragedy is happened more than one hundred years ago repeated in modern times? Is everything too late?
Recently I’ve read the British famous writer Thomas Hardy’s masterpiece-Tess of the D’urbervilles. It describes the misfortune of a poor peasant girl Tess. In this novel, we can see Tess resist her unjust fate again and again, till to be ruined. With the development of the plot we find that her tragedy is inevitable. We can not but feel the intense emotions of pity and fear.
The cause of Tess’s tragedy has always been the concern of people, such a beautiful, noble and pure woman as Tess should suffer inevitable ruin. What leads to her tragic destiny? Who killed her? I can’t do very well in ****ysis the novel. I don’t know clearly how the time she lived in affect her life. I do have an understanding of the novel by myself. Alec and Angel who are the two people very closely related to Tess’s fate. I think fierce Alec played a very important role in killing Tess, but in fact, it was hypocritical Angel who killed Tess indirectly but more cruelly.
I wanted to cry, Tess, do not follow him when I read that plot. I hope she met her true love before she was seduced, but everything was too late. She was seduced by a so called gentleman-Alec, and from then on her life totally changed from this loss of innocence. People looked down on her and respect her no more. Actually she did nothing wrong because before she was seduced she knew nothing of man. Women were too weak. Tess was poor, weak and helpless and met the wrong person at the wrong time.
I strongly believed that it was Angel who killed Tess cruelly and without mercy. Angel was a liberal bourgeoisie. He made himself lived in the countryside rather than serving the god. Angel was a man who questioned the church’s teaching. He thought the church’s views were too strict and did not allow free thinking. Angel extricated him from religion and his family, but he couldn’t break with traditional moral principles. He wanted a wife who was the daughter of nature, honest, sensitive, intelligent, graceful, pure as snow and extremely beautiful. In the first part I thought Angel loved tess very much. In the following part I found that he loved an image he imagined. After their wedding Angel confessed the crime he committed to a woman long time ago and asked Tess’s forgiveness. Tess was not at all angry and forgave angel at once. She innocently thought that the thing she was going to confess would be forgiven. Poor Tess! She sat and told everything to angel, hoping he would forgive her as he was forgiven, but she was wrong. The woman pays.
Angel claimed that you were one person, now you are another when tess asked why. The woman Angel had loved was not tess, was another woman in tess’s shape. Angel loved the person he imagined. He considered tess the daughter of nature. Compared to tess’s words, “ I thought angel, that you loved me-me my very self! If you do love me, how can you treat me like this? It frightened me! Having begun to love you, I will love you forever, in all changes, in all troubles, because you are yourself. I ask no more.” we know how deep tess loved angel. She would have laid down life for angel. She not only loved the merits but also accept the demerits. We know from the book that when angel came back from Brazil, he could hardly be recognized by his mother because the cruel climate and hard work had aged him by twenty years, but tess accepted angel immediately, because he was the man she fell in love with.
I don’t know why angel couldn’t forgive tess since he himself had done the similar thing.
先根据所读的东西，进行一点概括性阐述。然后根据自己所得所想，得到的启发什么的，把这些东西写出来就行。
这是我第二次看《苔丝》，看着的时候，自我有点愤怒，怎样能是这样的呢？不一样社会，不一样东西，不一样结果。
一个那么好的姑娘就这样被这个社会玷污了，碰到了错的人，家庭的原因，让她没能看清这个社会的样貌，不知是否相信那些关心她的人，人的诱惑也是一样的，凭什么男女之间是那么的不公平哈。是女的真的就那么珍贵吗？
苔丝，从你身上我看到了，你的宽恕，你的谅解，你对爱的坚持，你一向在追求着自我的真爱，过程是艰辛的，可是结局有点完美。
有点厌恶安奇，明明那么爱苔丝，就因为她被世俗给污染了，你对她冷冰冰的，都不给人家机会，嘴上说能够宽恕人家，结果，还不如对苔丝狠点呢，就不要有那么多的依靠了，就不会抱有那么多的期望了。可能还会有另一种结局。
突然发现，无论是爱还是被爱，都是一种杯具了。被一个你不爱的人爱上，他有那么固执，那么庸俗，像个流氓，和你说话带着有点调戏的感觉，对你肉体上总是占有欲的，真是想想都觉得可怕，又因为某种原因，不能摆脱他，哎，怎一个杯具呢？
爱上一个你爱的人，他以往和你说，无论做了什么错事，他都会原谅你的，可是，绝对不可能的，这种情景实现的几率不大，自我还是看着办吧，不是什么事都能够那么坦白的。最可靠的人就是自我了。
当看完一本著作后，想必你有不少可以分享的东西，这时候，最关键的读后感怎么能落下！怎样写读后感才能避免写成“流水账”呢？下面是我帮大家整理的苔丝读后感，供大家参考借鉴，希望可以帮助到有需要的朋友。
苔丝读后感1《德伯家的苔丝》是哈代著称于世的“威塞克斯系列”中的一部力作。小说描述了一位纯洁姑娘的不幸命运。主人公苔丝是一位美丽的农家少女，因受东家少爷诱迫而失身怀孕。从此，这一耻辱的事实剥夺了她接受真正爱情的权利，致使新婚之夜遭丈夫遗弃。后来，万般无奈之中，她重回了少爷的怀抱，不料，就在这时她那有名无实的丈夫拖着病驱千里归来，苦苦寻觅。苔丝为了自己真正的爱，毅然杀死同居的少爷，在与丈夫短暂欢聚后，走上了绞刑台。
父亲德伯的愚昧无知，对于金钱的贪婪推使苔丝跌下了社会的的深渊；而亚雷的邪恶**则将苔丝少女的所有美好梦想化为灰烬，促使她遇上了改变她人生的第三件事——与安玑·克莱相爱。而正是这个安玑·克莱，这个有着天使之名的懦弱男人——最终造成了苔丝的悲剧。有人会说安玑·克莱才是真正该批判的人，但是无疑他生活在那个时代，他需要时间来释放自己，不可忽视的是，安玑·克莱是爱苔丝的，至少那爱是真的，而不是像亚雷一样，只有欲，把苔丝当做自己的玩偶。所以我认为苔丝的悲剧应该是当时的时代所酿成的，或许在现代社会也会有这样的事情发生，不过对于像苔丝一样的人来说，生存的机会就多了。合上书，我想鞭挞当时的社会，指责亚雷的**行径，藐视安玑的懦弱，同情苔丝的悲惨遭遇。
第一位小作者从这个悲剧的故事中认识到了每个人物的不足，第三位作者也是如此，表达了对当时那个社会的不满。第二位作者虽然也表达了对于悲剧的惋惜以及对于其中人物的痛恨，但是却写出了苔丝与自己朋友之间友谊的真实。
苔丝读后感2这是第二次重温这本书，感触依旧颇多。
苔丝，一个纯洁美丽的农家少女，因为家境贫穷而去投奔“假东家”亚雷克，不料后来却被轻浮的亚雷克玷污。落寞的苔丝遇上了克莱尔，两人相爱后，却在新婚之夜因苔丝向克莱尔吐露了这件事情后惨遭克莱尔抛弃。心灰意冷的苔丝再次碰上了已经成为传道士的亚雷克，最后只能屈身于他。没想到克莱尔事后深悔前来寻找苔丝，为了爱情苔丝毅然杀死亚雷克与克莱尔一同逃离，到最终被捕后获刑死去。
读罢，不仅深深为苔丝叹息。在那个所谓的“文明社会”中，善良的人惨遭伤害，而犯下恶行的人却可以逍遥法外，最终结果是造就一个纯洁无辜的社会的牺牲者。
这是否是那个时代的使然？可我同时也为苔丝的爱情感到不平，为克莱尔的懦弱和决绝深感痛弃！世俗的偏见至今也是存在的，可是如果苔丝能够生活在如今的时代，那么她的遭遇会不会好一些？这个实在是未知。
哈代用诗一般的文笔描写出了一个敢于大胆追求和争取爱的权利的女性，在她身上闪烁着敢于冲破旧礼教的一切束缚的反抗精神。她坚忍的承受着生活对她的一连串沉重的打击，在艰难困苦中从不祈求神灵，从不向邪恶势力屈服。这是我佩服因苔丝的地方。
但是，她的反抗精神也是很不彻底的，也有顺从命运安排的一面，有以自我牺牲为态度去接受一切的时候。因为把自己的希望和幸福全部维系在克莱尔的爱情上，所以导致了个人反抗的失败和个人追求的破灭。
在这本书中，我还要赞叹哈代，因为他不仅将苔丝这个人物最生动的体现了出来，在塑造其他人物时，像是描写亚雷克成为传教士后再次坠落的过程的这一讽刺，作为对立面来突出苔丝的纯洁与善良；通过对克莱尔自私行为的讲述，来反衬出苔丝对爱情的不顾一切，这种细腻的手法着实珍贵。
而在最后，钟声响起，当那面黑旗缓缓从杆子上升起时，我深深沉默了。那是苔丝的**，执行了……
苔丝读后感3在我所读的书中，有一本是我最喜欢的书，这本书里面的女主人十分漂亮，男主人公十分温柔和体贴，但男二号确是一个花言巧语，十分奸诈的人。这本书就是《德伯家的苔丝》，作者是英国的哈代。
这本书主要讲了：苔丝的父亲听说自己是古代贵族的后裔，便要女儿去一个自称是德伯后裔的富老太婆家攀亲。苔丝到了那儿却被老太婆的儿子亚历克糟蹋了。苔丝在牛奶场做工时与安奇尔相爱。当他把昔日的不幸向丈夫坦白，安奇尔却没有原谅他而是抛下她前往巴西发展。苔丝家里陷入窘境，丈夫沓无音讯，绝望中的她只能被迫和亚历克同居。安奇尔回国来找妻子。但苔丝觉得没有脸面重回丈夫的怀抱，只好杀死了亚力克。与丈夫一起度过了幸福的五天后，苔丝被捕了
当苔丝还是一个什么都不懂的小女孩时，亚历克就把她的一生的幸福给毁了，而亚历克却理由充分的说他这样做是因为他爱苔丝，难道这样也是爱的方法那？他这样的方法只能找来世人的指责、痛恨、羞骂，永远都得不到世人们的认可和祝福。而苔丝呢？她对亚历克只有恨，绝对没有一丝的爱，牵挂，更不要说是怜悯了。安奇尔是一个既温柔又体贴的男人，他不会用花言巧语骗取苔丝的爱，更不会用那种下流的方式得到苔丝。他用自己那持之以恒的精神与爱在一点一点的融化着苔丝的心，并一天一天的用自己的行动感动着苔丝最终获得了苔丝的心。这就是两个人品质的对比，行为的对比，也是结果的对比。苔丝因为被对亚历克的恨冲昏了头脑，蒙撇了双眼，最终在对亚历克的恨和在对安奇尔的爱的两种情绪的交织下杀了亚历克。当他与丈夫安奇尔度过了幸福、快乐、浪漫的五天后便被捕了。在监狱中，她想来想去自己的一生太悲凉了以至使她无法去面对，只好**了
苔丝带着遗憾和对丈夫安奇尔的祝福离开了人世。在爱与恨中作出了选择，也付出了代价和失去了幸福。
苔丝读后感4苔丝是个悲剧式的人物，究竟谁应当为这一悲剧负责呢？恐怕许多读者都会认为，罪魁祸首是恶棍少爷亚雷克。而在我看来，导致这一悲剧起因的固然是亚雷克，但导致悲剧结局的还有苔丝名义上的丈夫克莱尔。亚雷克只是**裸的`剥夺了苔丝的贞洁，从肉体上揭开了悲剧的序幕；克莱尔却在新婚之夜抛弃了苔丝，从精神上导致了悲剧的发展，并最终使这场悲剧落下了帏幕。倘若克莱尔没有抛弃苔丝，没有披着那层虚伪的道德面纱，也就不会有这场悲剧的发展与结局。
故事的情节并不复杂：纯朴美丽的农村故娘苔丝来到贵族德伯维尔家当女佣，被恶棍少爷亚雷克诱骗失身怀孕，因而受到邻里的耻笑和指责，从此开始陷入痛苦的深渊。后来苔丝遇到了出身富裕牧师家庭的克莱尔，两人真心相爱。新婚之夜苔丝将自己过去的悲惨遭遇告诉了克莱尔，没想到换来的却是克莱尔的无情离去。苔丝吃尽了难以想象的各种苦头，却没有得到克莱尔的原谅和任何消息。为潦困的生活所迫，绝望中的苔丝再次落入亚雷克手中。此后醒悟了的克莱尔重新找到了苔丝，苔丝追悔莫及。为了与心上的爱人克莱尔生活在一起，苔丝杀死了毁掉自己一生的亚雷克。几天后苔丝被捕，以杀人罪被判处绞刑，克莱尔则遵照苔丝的遗愿，带着她的妹妹丽莎开始了新的生活。
小说中哈代以生动的笔触，深挚的情感塑造出了一个善良美丽的少女苔丝：宛若“一个清新、纯洁的大自然的女儿”，“在气质和体貌两方面都表现出一种尊贵的端庄，俨然是个皇后”，“她周身洋溢着诗意，一举一动都是诗，把诗人只在纸上写写的诗，活生生地显现出来了”。虽然苔丝是个失贞的女人，甚至最后沦为了杀人犯，但作者还是大胆地摒弃了世俗的观念，赞扬她为“一个纯洁的女人”，“远远胜过别的处女的清新”。
苔丝读后感5《德伯家的苔丝》被称为英国文学和世界文学的瑰宝，它出版于十九世纪末，作者是英国伟大的批判现实主义作家，“一个耸立在维多利亚时代和新时代交界线上的忧郁形象”，托马斯哈代。
《苔丝》写的就是社会如何把一个纯洁、质朴、正直、刻苦、聪明、美丽的农村姑娘逼得央走投无路，终于杀人的故事。她以不同的艺术形象成就了一个悲剧，老长老长的故事也因为这个悲剧的成功成为了很多很多很老的人们心中的疼痛。
苔丝具有纯净自然的美，她是大自然的女儿。她的纯洁就像蓝天一样，虽然偶尔会被乌云遮住，可是当乌云散去，世界上最纯净透明的依然是蓝天。
苔丝也是坚强的，乐观的，她的生命却是不可逆转。即使再多给苔丝几次选择吗我相信她最终还是会选择老路，除非安玑克莱没有抛弃她。
苔丝的遭遇折射出许多社会的现实。也许每个读者都能读出这其中深刻的寓意。但是，在当代的生活中，我觉得我们每个人都应该学习苔丝那种保持心灵纯洁，积极面对一切困难的生活态度，即使她绝望过，但是，她最后还是在爱中死去。
当她被亚雷无情地玷污，她毅然决然地选择放弃亚雷提供的优质生活，回到穷困的家中。由此，她坚守自己内心的纯洁可见一斑。
当她知道自己有了亚雷的孩子时，她仍然坚持生下了那个小生命。这是一种源于母性的伟大。她对孩子也只是爱，是一种无怨无悔的深爱。那个时代的她，作为未婚妈妈，她无疑是伟大的。
爱是源于内心最深处，这是一个善良的女人。此书，此人，此事，需要大家去亲自感悟。以上仅为我的拙见。
苔丝读后感6《苔丝》这本书是英国作家托马斯·哈代的作品，当之无愧的世界名著，我买的是译林出版社的版本。我从小到大买世界名著还是蛮认准这家出版社的，翻译的不错并且每本书的序都写的很好。提议先读书最终再去看序言，不然剧透过后读书的意愿就没有那么强烈了。
这本书的剧情犹如过山车一般，起伏十分的大有的时候主人公的情绪变化甚至就在一瞬间。全书的第一页写着：苔丝，一个纯洁的女人。这便是全书讨论的主题了，苔丝是否是一个纯洁的女人？我给的答案是肯定的。个人认为这本书不仅仅好在作者**般的写作功底，他有用很多的环境描述、侧面描述等来渲染，这本书更可贵之处是能够引发读者的思考的。
全书我还很喜欢的一个点就是作者把人物塑造的很好。在许多作品中都会或多或少存在那么一两个完美的人，他们的言行举止竟显人性的光辉。可是这本书的主角们都不是完美的。男主角爱的真诚，他丝毫不嫌弃苔丝的贫穷，我一开始还以为是那种霸道总裁的戏码，让人直呼好一个痴情男，奈何他却十分在意女性的贞洁和家族的名望。男二号是个没落的贵族子弟，他嚣张跋扈、自大狂妄，虽说在故事中有点浪子回头的感觉，有一段时间还给别人去说道，可是很遗憾“江山易改，本性难移”，一次意外的邂逅还是将他打回原形。女主角，苔丝，是全书中近乎完美的主角，她美丽、善良、勤劳、忠诚，拥有很多很多优秀的品质。可是她爱的卑微又缺少足够的定力，最终就是她为数不多的缺点导致了杯具的化身。
我看到女性题材的文学作品就很容易与《简爱》这本书进行比较，当然《简爱》一向都是我心中这类小说中的top1。我看《苔丝》看到一半的时候觉得这两本书的母题不是一样的吗？可是等我看完后我发现虽说都是以女性为主人公和书名可是侧重的主题是不一样的。《苔丝》讨论的是女性的贞洁和男性对女性的固有看法，而《简爱》更多的是教一个女孩子如何去爱。我想，如果苔丝有简的一些洒脱，那么故事的结局必须会不一样了。

苔丝读后感8在鸟儿甜蜜歌唱的地方也会有毒蛇发出嘶嘶的声音。当大自然的女儿踏入文明的社会后却要面对残酷的生活环境。涉足未深的少女就这样走进了被命运捉弄的漩涡，那样不经意之间，苔丝，德伯家的苔丝就这样丢失了少女的贞操，是谁的错，坚信自己是大家族的德伯沉浸在伯爵的梦想中，是贫穷让他们将所有的人都看作了自己的救世主，轻易相信了冒牌的同姓伯爵亚雷·德伯维尔，也就是这条隐藏的毒蛇侵蚀了苔丝，让她走上了一条绵延崎岖的道路，一条孤独又无助的道路。风雨飘摇过后，太阳不再吝啬对苔丝的眷顾，在挤奶场结识了自己真正的爱人安其尔，可是新婚的夜晚，当苔丝在壁炉前吐出这段悲惨的回忆时，爱人走了，只留下了一个背影，让人心碎，明明相爱，可是仅仅因为那可笑的贞洁，这对爱人就此分道扬镳，即使最后回头，可得到的又是什么呢。
请求的原谅没有回复，家庭的负担让她身不由己，不知觉中又回到了最初的那人身边。即使是作为传道者出现，那又怎样，最终的结局也是给伤害的人又加上了一道伤口，一道致命的伤口。是太多的爱让人丧失了理智，面对失而复回的爱人，让深爱着苔丝如何能够保持理智，面对伤害自己又再次欺骗自己的**之徒，这把被仇恨掩盖的爱情之火，怎可不燎原。为爱而拔出的利刃插入恶棍的心脏，结束了这悲惨的束缚，宁愿得到一时的幸福，胜过永远不会停止的悲痛。苔丝最终做出了最大的牺牲，逃生的那段时光相信会是她最幸福的时光，只是和所爱的人牵手，只有无私的爱，别无所想，也别无所求。只求永远相互依偎，简简单单就好。在风神庙外，追捕苔丝的警察却如鬼魅般随着早晨的阳光出现了，就这样，单纯又不幸的苔丝彻底从不公平的命运中解脱了。
人们所谓的正义终于胜利了，上帝主宰的命运终于结束了对苔丝的戏弄。也许只有自己真正的努力才可以将自己从不幸中摆脱，如果自己都不去寻找出口，怎会走出这黑暗的漩涡，如果可以，放手一搏吧，也许得到的会比以前会更多，更好……
苔丝读后感9《德伯家的苔丝》中的苔丝是勇敢的，在男权时代，敢于谈论自尊，但面对现实，她无法逃脱命运的道德枷锁，这是一个纯洁女人的悲剧。以下内容是德伯家的苔丝读后感，供各位参考。
《德伯家的苔丝》是一本很好看的小说，它的作者是英国的著名作家哈代。看过之后，这部作品会给我们留下深刻的印象。
面对父亲沉浸与过去的辉煌家族中，面对兄弟姐妹期盼的目光，面对家中唯一的老马死在自己手中的场景，苔丝违背自己不想嫁给富人的原则，开始了她不愿意过的生活，走上了一条足以毁灭她人生的道路。。
纯洁的苔丝像一个无助的小鹿，受到了邪恶的亚雷的侵害，她得到的是人们的冷嘲热讽，承受着别人的鄙视和侮辱。但是，她无时无刻不在渴望着爱情，所以，在安其尔的爱情攻势下，苔丝总是不敢承认自己的过去，这意味着，她在一点一点地靠近她的悲剧。
当时的英国正处于一个充满变化和动荡的时期。苔丝出生在一个农村家庭，作为一个生活在社会底层的劳动者，虽然她美丽、善良、聪明，但是在生活的压力下，她看起来还是那么的渺小。
“思想开明”的克莱尔与苔丝之间的感情脆弱不堪，他用根深蒂固的传统贞操观念来看待一个女人是否贞洁，不把苔丝的无辜放在眼里，亲手将她推入了绝望的境地。当时社会的道德偏见，让苔丝再一次成为资产阶级伦理道德的牺牲品。
从一开始，苔丝的美就不是张扬的，她有一双清澈泛天真的眼睛，却总是流露出坚定、淡漠的神情。苔丝是勇敢的，在男权时代，敢于谈论自尊，在行刑场上的最后一刻，她的冷静吓退了所有的人，但面对现实，她无法逃脱命运的道德枷锁，这是一个纯洁女人的悲剧。
苔丝读后感10《苔丝》内容概要：小说女主角苔丝是一个美丽善良的农家姑娘。由于家境贫寒，她不得不听从母亲劝说，跑到地主庄园去做工，被地主少爷亚历克奸污，怀着身孕回到家乡。孩子夭折后，她又到一家牛奶场当挤奶工，在那里遇上了牧师的儿子安淇·克莱尔，两人产生了爱情……
一心呼唤带来的却未必是意中的人儿，注定要爱的人在该爱的时候大多不能出现。一个十全十美的整体的两半并没有恰到好处的时刻相遇，那迷失的一半还在世界上孤零零地游荡，浑浑噩噩，全无所知，直到延误了时机。而从这种糊里糊涂的蹉跎之中便生出了种种焦虑、失望、恐惧、灾祸和种种离奇的悲欢离合。用作者哈代的一首《最后的菊花》，为苔丝送别：悠长的夏季中太阳总高叫，催促着轮生的绿叶和鲜花。说它在为花儿们竭力效劳，可为何始终没有唤醒了她。寂寞的花来迟了她的娇艳，她早已蹉跎完季节的荣华。莫奈何她只能瑟缩在风前，一任那狂风和暴雨的吹打……
哈代以小说女主人公苔丝的悲惨命运替西方悲剧作了一个形象的阐释：苔丝本是一位纯洁美丽又非常勤劳的农村姑娘，她向往人生的真和善，但又时时遭到伪和恶的打击。苔丝的悲剧始于为了全家人生计去远亲家打工，却因年幼无知而被亚雷骗去了处女的贞操，成了一个“堕落”的女人，受到社会舆论的非议，把她看成不贞洁的罪人；苔丝后来与青年克莱相爱，又因为新婚之夜坦诚有污点的过去而被丈夫遗弃，而与近在眼前的幸福失之交臂；出于高度的家庭责任感和自我牺牲精神，苔丝为换取家人的生存而再次违愿沦为亚雷的情妇；最后因为丈夫的回心转意使得绝望的苔丝愤而举起了复仇的利刃，终于成了一个杀人犯，最后不得不付出了生命的代价，导致“象游丝一样敏感，象雪一样洁白”的苔丝最后终被完全毁灭。这一切悲性遭遇全由于无情命运所精心谋划和设计，安排世事的宇宙主宰通过命运的巨网毫无怜悯地将人伦道德意义上的好人、善良人笼罩于进退维谷的苦难陷阱……
苔丝读后感11下了一夜的雨，我也看了一夜的书，也许入书太深；做了一夜的梦。
书上主人公的命运太悲惨，不得不叫人感叹。不过我觉得我自己不会像她一样逆来顺受。
当我发现了那个痛点，我是会有勇气去承受一切的。昨天我对一个朋友剖白，我身上有两个致命的弱点。一个就是太沉静在自己制造的气氛里，一个就是太低估别人。
也许我的思维太杂乱，我应让它有个固定的向上的模式，而不是让自己陷在里面没有及时摆脱出来。
也许我的惯有思维，让我在主观上对别人形成的一种眼光，觉得身边的人都不能企及我的思维。有人说每个人的智商都是差不多的，这句话我先是很不同意。我觉得人有很大的差别，无论是接受能力还是处事的能力都会有差别。
看来这可能是我太清高的原因吧，但至少还不至于到刚愎自用的地步。我还是会经常自省的。
还好我现在再也没有那些念头了，心情最终平静了。曾经我不想事情到这种局面，看来是必然性的。
现在最重要的是调整自己的状态，我觉得我一点也没有进步。还是老样子。
我突然觉得我为什么这么长一段时间都沉静在里面无法自制。也许我太有完美情节。我一直在想象某些东西，其实他也不是真实的。我觉得我面对他的时候到底是什么样的一种情绪我到现在都想不明白。但是一分开，我的心就不在状态。难道就真的是爱吗？我现在开始怀疑了。为什么我现在不那么痛了呢？
算了，不去想了。也许只有经过这一段我才能真正长大。
我应珍惜眼前的人，看不见的东西何必去追寻。我觉得自己反反复复说了很多。为了他每次都违背了自己说的话就叫是让我失去尊严的地方。
还是那句话，无论做人处事都要有自己的风格。别人是别人，你是你。
不亢不卑，从容优雅。一个真实的木木。
苔丝读后感12看久了卡通连环画，我想换换口味。于是在书架上拿了一本《德伯家的苔丝》看了起来。
暖人的友情！
喜欢哈代的抒情诗，其中不乏情节生动，语句隽永的作品。《德伯家的苔丝》是哈代最著名的长篇小说之一。这是个美丽凄凉的爱情故事。当我合上书，苔丝对克莱尔忠贞的爱情故事确实令我感动，但令我温暖的是和苔丝一起挤牛奶的3个可爱少女伊丝、玛丽安与雷蒂。她们也同苔丝一样深深爱着那个英俊少年克莱尔，但也深知克莱尔只爱苔丝，于是就把爱恋深深地埋在心里，而把祝福送给他们。我喜欢她们三个的纯洁的友谊和坦率的言行。就是在克莱尔无情地抛弃苔丝时，善良的伊丝也没落井下石，与克莱尔有过一段话：
“你非常非常爱我，伊丝？”克莱尔问到。
“是的我非常爱你，我一直都爱着你！”
“比苔丝更爱我吗？”
“不！”伊丝摇摇头低声说，“不如她爱你！”
“这话怎么说呢？”
“没有人比苔丝更爱你了。”
“因为她可以为你去死，而我无法做的。”
读到这里我心中一阵激动，我仿佛看到一个高尚的灵魂，左右了她那质朴敦厚的天性，这真是一个真正善良、真心待人的好姑娘呀，真令人感动。在苔丝回到娘家又身无分文时，因为失恋而酗酒的玛丽安又帮她找到了一份工作，使苔丝的生活又有了一丝光亮。在那些阴霾的日子中，温暖着苔丝冰冷的心的依然是这份暖人的友情……
苔丝是不幸的，她的父母为了所谓的家庭荣耀，而让她去攀亲，而毁了自己。她最爱的人又无情地抛弃她，而她又是幸运的，在她短暂的一生中，在她遭遇爱情抛弃时，不离不弃的是那份温暖的友情。
为这份友情喝彩！
苔丝读后感13如果说卡门的美在于野性叛逆，简爱的美在于倔强顽强，那么苔丝的美一定在于纯净自然，她是大自然的女儿。她的纯洁就像蓝天一样，虽然偶尔会被乌云遮住，可是当乌云散去，世界上最纯净透明的依然是蓝天。
苔丝有着贵族的血统，却依旧淳朴自然，从不自傲美，不是一种外表，而是内心高雅纯洁的表现，宛如乡野路边的秋菊，虽然没有杜鹃，牡丹的美艳，也没有梅花的傲骨芳容，却仍保留自己淡淡的清香。不争，不傲，身在百花之中，心在蓝天之外。
克莱尔正是因为苔丝独具特色的纯净才爱上她并向她求婚。可是当苔丝向她所爱的人坦白她那受伤的过去时，克莱尔放弃了，对爱人的不肯定和对感情的不坚定让她最终选择了离开。苔丝心碎了，当她把她的伤口小心翼翼的展现在所爱的人的面前时，她希望的是理解，是原谅。可是爱人却狠心的在弱小的苔丝的伤口上洒了一把盐。
花落无声，宁静的秋天已过，酷寒的冬风吹来，谁也听不到花的哭泣，因为她从不在痛苦中哭泣，她的泪留给未来，她期盼着幸福。
虽然后来克莱尔意识到自己的偏见和狭隘，他的心仿佛看见天上有一颗名叫“苔丝”的星星对他说：“亲爱的，现在你原谅我了么？”
为什么不可以抗拒，抗拒那虚伪的道德！一次次的离别，面对感情时的彷徨，又一次的期盼，又一次的后悔。虽然苔丝和克莱尔最后度过了五天美好的时光，可是，为爱复仇的苔丝结局依然悲惨。
苔丝是勇敢的，她勇于追求自己的所爱，勇于向所爱的人坦白自己那并不光彩的过去，同时她有是无助的，在受到伤害时她无助，在爱人离他而去时她无助，在再次沦陷时她的内心依旧无助，不禁拷问苍天。为何苔丝命运多舛？
那么，亲爱的朋友们，请你们谨记，当你能接受一个人时，请你的心像海水一般宽广的接受她的过去。多给别人一次机会，也就是在宽容自己。
当看完一本著作后，大家心中一定是萌生了不少心得，何不写一篇读后感记录下呢？是不是无从下笔、没有头绪？以下是我收集整理的`苔丝英文读后感范文（精选3篇），供大家参考借鉴，希望可以帮助到有需要的朋友。
苔丝英文读后感1She was seduced by a so-called gentleman—Alec, and from then on her life totally changed from this loss of innocence. People looked down on her and respected her no more. Actually she did nothing wrong because before she was seduced she knew nothing of men. She was just a girl when she first met that terrible man.
She was forced by the gossips and the church to blame herself for this accident, so she thought she deserved nothing good. In order to get rid of the past she decided to go to a distant dairy farm but was still saying to herself that she was wrong. Maybe God didn’t agree with that, because the Lord gave her someone she loved with her whole heart and life—Angel Chare. Angel popped the question to her but she refused him without saying why. She said she loved him deeply and perhaps no one in the world could love him more than she did but she could not marry him for some unspoken reason. Angel wasn’t satisfied with this vague answer and did his best to win Tess. Somehow she agreed and they soon fixed the wedding day. Soon after their wedding Angel confessed the crime he committed to a woman long time ago and asked for Tess’s forgiveness. Tess was not at all angry and forgave Angel at once; in fact she was rather happy and excited for she also had things to confess.
She sat and told everything to Angel, hoping he would forgive her as he was forgiven but she was wrong. She was not forgiven, not as she thought she was. The woman pays.
Without Angel’s love, nothing meant anything to her. The result wasn’t important now. Tess was arrested for her murder of that so-called gentleman. Why? She still loved Angel and when he finally went back to her and asked for HER forgiveness, after he regretted what he had done unfair to Tess, she was desperate. That was too late—Alec had always told Tess that Angel would never come back so he won Tess’s trust. Unluckily Angel did come back and found Tess.! Everything was too late!
Tess was deceived and she lost Angel for the second time! The strengh of her love was so strong that she had forgotten the difference between right and wrong. Before that she had done nothing wrong but when she killed Alec, everything really changed! She became a criminal! How could it be? She was as pure and innocent as the good wife in the Bible. Her whole character was honest and faithful. Angel figured out at last that a person should be judged not onlyon what he has done but also on what he wanted to do!Tessdidn’t want to be seduced by man and she had no power to defendherself so she lost her innocence and that’s all! Angel also didthe wrong thing and it was even more serious than Tess’s crime butHE was not blamed for it.
Why it is always the woman who pays? Whythey are always hurt? Why was Tess’s girlish purity lost? Why doesthe wrong man take the wrong woman? Why do the bad often ruin thegood? Why is beauty damaged by ugliness? Women are too weak!Thousands of years of history have shown us that women have alway**een treated unfairly!Inold China there was a culture, which didn’t think of women as humanbeings. If you asked one if he was the oldest in his family, hewould probably answer “the oldest one” even if he had some eldersisters.
If you asked why then he would say, “Ha, they are notincluded!”Peoplegave birth to many girls in order to have only one boy to keep thefamily name going. They thought girls had no use for the family.They would be married and go to live with their hu**ands’ home andbe their wives some day sooner or later. So they were extremelyhard on girls.Girlsshould be hard working, faithful, loyal, intelligent, and virtuousand the most important thing was she must be a maiden! If herhu**and was the first man who touched her then she was a good girl,a good wife no matter how she thought. If she wasn’t, then shewould gain a very bad reputation and nobody would dare to go nearher. What about men? People did not care whether he was anexperienced man or not, nor did they care about his character. Theythought man equals power and power equals rights…Nowlet’s not be so bitter. Nowadays women’s situations have becomemuch better. Some are because of the change of society and some arebecause of civilization. Just let those poor painful women likeTESS be just a memory.
苔丝英文读后感2Why was Tess’s girlish purity lost? Why did such a beautiful, noble and pure woman as Tess should suffer inevitable ruin? Why does the wrong man take the wrong woman? Why it is always the woman who pays? Why they are always hurt? Why is beauty damaged by ugliness? Why the tragedy is happened more than one hundred years ago repeated in modern times? Is everything too late?
Recently I’ve read the British famous writer Thomas Hardy’s masterpiece-Tess of the D’urbervilles. It describes the misfortune of a poor peasant girl Tess. In this novel, we can see Tess resist her unjust fate again and again, till to be ruined. With the development of the plot we find that her tragedy is inevitable. We can not but feel the intense emotions of pity and fear.
The cause of Tess’s tragedy has always been the concern of people, such a beautiful, noble and pure woman as Tess should suffer inevitable ruin. What leads to her tragic destiny? Who killed her? I can’t do very well in ****ysis the novel. I don’t know clearly how the time she lived in affect her life. I do have an understanding of the novel by myself. Alec and Angel who are the two people very closely related to Tess’s fate. I think fierce Alec played a very important role in killing Tess, but in fact, it was hypocritical Angel who killed Tess indirectly but more cruelly.
I wanted to cry, Tess, do not follow him when I read that plot. I hope she met her true love before she was seduced, but everything was too late. She was seduced by a so called gentleman-Alec, and from then on her life totally changed from this loss of innocence. People looked down on her and respect her no more. Actually she did nothing wrong because before she was seduced she knew nothing of man. Women were too weak. Tess was poor, weak and helpless and met the wrong person at the wrong time.
I strongly believed that it was Angel who killed Tess cruelly and without mercy. Angel was a liberal bourgeoisie. He made himself lived in the countryside rather than serving the god. Angel was a man who questioned the church’s teaching. He thought the church’s views were too strict and did not allow free thinking. Angel extricated him from religion and his family, but he couldn’t break with traditional moral principles. He wanted a wife who was the daughter of nature, honest, sensitive, intelligent, graceful, pure as snow and extremely beautiful. In the first part I thought Angel loved tess very much. In the following part I found that he loved an image he imagined. After their wedding Angel confessed the crime he committed to a woman long time ago and asked Tess’s forgiveness. Tess was not at all angry and forgave angel at once. She innocently thought that the thing she was going to confess would be forgiven. Poor Tess! She sat and told everything to angel, hoping he would forgive her as he was forgiven, but she was wrong. The woman pays.
Angel claimed that you were one person, now you are another when tess asked why. The woman Angel had loved was not tess, was another woman in tess’s shape. Angel loved the person he imagined. He considered tess the daughter of nature. Compared to tess’s words, “ I thought angel, that you loved me-me my very self! If you do love me, how can you treat me like this? It frightened me! Having begun to love you, I will love you forever, in all changes, in all troubles, because you are yourself. I ask no more.” we know how deep tess loved angel. She would have laid down life for angel. She not only loved the merits but also accept the demerits. We know from the book that when angel came back from Brazil, he could hardly be recognized by his mother because the cruel climate and hard work had aged him by twenty years, but tess accepted angel immediately, because he was the man she fell in love with.
I don’t know why angel couldn’t forgive tess since he himself had done the similar thing.
苔丝英文读后感3I think Tess must be a kind-hearted girl.
She endured so much pain, but she never complained about others. When she was young, she missed her best love. Then fate began to play jokes with her. A so-called gentleman cheated her and took away the most important thing of an un-married girl. No matter Tess was regretted or not, people around her, contained the church, all of them thought that she was a bad girl. She couldn’t get married. She couldn’t stay home to wait for her parents’ order to get married. She ran away and met her best love. Since she thought that she wasn’t innocence, she stood her deep love of Angel, and put the opportunities to other girls, those who can never compared to her.
At last, she got married to Angel, but the fact of her history made her hu**and angry and bad-tempered. She tried her best to make her hu**and happy, but he didn’t care what she had done, how sad she was. Until Angel found that he loved Tess very much, Tess had come back to the disgusted man. True love was a power. Tess killed the man, ran away with Angel, lived in others’ house, and be caught by the police. Although Tess would be in prison and be killed, she wouldn’t regret at last. After all, Angel really loved her at last.
Everybody will day dream sometimes. But we won’t care it any time. Tess’s father was a dreamer. We must think about ourselves. When somebody tells us a thing which is far away from our daily life, we must think about it carefully and investigate the fact. We are not fools. If what they say, what you believe, our world will become a mixture. We all know that we are just citizens of China, and students of Kashgar Teachers’ collage. Life is life. How can we fall into a hole of imagination? This imagination led Tess to death. That was the result.
In the old times of China, people also had a conception of innocence of girls. But did they think about men? Yeah, at that time, men were the host of world. Women just needed to give birth to babies, teach them, and do housework to their hu**and. That was a duty. Even though at present, we don’t have a judge on men either. We also meet problems on finding jobs. Because those companies think that our women are terrible. We can’t do many things but men can, we will give birth to babies but men don’t, every month we have several days of mental problems but men don’t. That’s unfair. We do so much, so it is right to give more opportunities to us.
At the ball, Tess missed her love. Nowadays, we need to be brave. And when the opportunity is coming, we must catch it in time. If we lose, we can hardly meet it again. The chance is given to the people who get the ready to. So we should prepare and chance will find us. And we need to learn refusing. If Tess refused to made friends with Alec, maybe she could avoid this disaster. In present times, many children know the relationship between women and men earlier. And also many of them don’t know. Actually, our society need to teach them in order to know what will happen or what they should do to protect themselves. Although most parents think that this is a bad thing beyond virtue, but it tends to the young to learn that.
We need forgiveness. We can see that Tess lived in a religion place, but those people didn’t get the thought of kind-hearted and forgiveness. As we are students who have the relief on Marxi**, we have learned to be kind-hearted, but how about them? So we should be an athei**. We learn science, not ghosts.
After Tess went to the farm, she met her love again. She was afraid, was under pressure, and was shy on her first feeling of love. Why should we have a crime feeling after making a mistake? Just correct our mistakes, we are good persons too. Of course, we can not make mistakes if we know they are wrong.
We can not avoid problems either. Tess daren’t to tell Angel the truth. When Angel knew that, he couldn’t accept at once. In our daily life, we can meet many difficulties. And we may make mistakes. At that time, we must think highly of it and face it but not to avoid. Fact will come out unless you don’t do it. Most of us can not accept our relatives’ or friends’ betray. So face it earlier, maybe we can get forgiveness earlier.
Another important thing was that Tess’s family had many children. The poor environment made her have to approach to Alec. Should the poor do like this? There are many poor men in our country, but they find jobs for themselves, although the job is very hard to do. They make their own money and endure pains.
I just think of my family. I am the only child of my parents. They love me very much. And most of my life, they had a correct way to teach me. And I have grandparents. When I was young, four of them taught me to do housework. They said that I would be a good girl if I listened to them. And I always listened to them, contained other things, which might be wrong now. This winter vocation I went home. I found that they had many wrong conceptions. So I think that if I was as clever as now when I was young, maybe our family would be a good family. But when I think about the development of our society, my parents and grandparents did a good job already. So I regret a little that I love them not so much. And sometimes I quarreled with them. I should talk to them, right? That is to be a good daughter and granddaughter. Their thought may not catch up with the society. So it’s necessary to us to tell them the right or advanced thing.
Women’s reputation is higher and higher. It is quite different now. Men become good hu**ands who always listen to their wives. Maybe we must make this situation fairer. Two persons must respect each other, and then life will be better. My parents quarreled in winter vocation. It was a **all thing. I don’t know why they quarreled. It seems that if you think more highly of another, you will have more words to say.
认真读完一本名著后，你有什么体会呢？不妨坐下来好好写写读后感吧。那么如何写读后感才能更有感染力呢？以下是我帮大家整理的德伯家苔丝读后感，希望能够帮助到大家。
苔丝是个悲剧式的人物，究竟谁应当为这一悲剧负责呢？恐怕许多读者都会认为，罪魁祸首是恶棍少爷亚雷克。而在我看来，导致这一悲剧起因的固然是亚雷克，但导致悲剧结局的还有苔丝名义上的丈夫克莱尔。亚雷克只是**裸的剥夺了苔丝的贞洁，从肉体上揭开了悲剧的序幕；克莱尔却在新婚之夜抛弃了苔丝，从精神上导致了悲剧的.发展，并最终使这场悲剧落下了帏幕。倘若克莱尔没有抛弃苔丝，没有披着那层虚伪的道德面纱，也就不会有这场悲剧的发展与结局。
故事的情节并不复杂：纯朴美丽的农村故娘苔丝来到贵族德伯维尔家当女佣，被恶棍少爷亚雷克诱骗失身怀孕，因而受到邻里的耻笑和指责，从此开始陷入痛苦的深渊。后来苔丝遇到了出身富裕牧师家庭的克莱尔，两人真心相爱。新婚之夜苔丝将自己过去的悲惨遭遇告诉了克莱尔，没想到换来的却是克莱尔的无情离去。苔丝吃尽了难以想象的各种苦头，却没有得到克莱尔的原谅和任何消息。为潦困的生活所迫，绝望中的苔丝再次落入亚雷克手中。此后醒悟了的克莱尔重新找到了苔丝，苔丝追悔莫及。为了与心上的爱人克莱尔生活在一起，苔丝杀死了毁掉自己一生的亚雷克。几天后苔丝被捕，以杀人罪被判处绞刑，克莱尔则遵照苔丝的遗愿，带着她的妹妹丽莎开始了新的生活。
小说中哈代以生动的笔触，深挚的情感塑造出了一个善良美丽的少女苔丝：宛若“一个清新、纯洁的大自然的女儿”，“在气质和体貌两方面都表现出一种尊贵的端庄，俨然是个皇后”，“她周身洋溢着诗意，一举一动都是诗，把诗人只在纸上写写的诗，活生生地显现出来了”。虽然苔丝是个失贞的女人，甚至最后沦为了杀人犯，但作者还是大胆地摒弃了世俗的观念，赞扬她为“一个纯洁的女人”，“远远胜过别的处女的清新”。
