Full of romantic elements in the suspense novel---a Tale of Two Cities
1.1 Strong romantic elements in Dickens’ novel It is generally regarded Dickens as a realist, but not a romantic writer.However, French historian Kazha thinks that Dickens is essentially a romantic, he classified Dickens and the Bronte sisters as a romantic writer,to Thackeray called realists.His argument on the later research on Dickens is very enlightening.British novelist, George Gissing and Jester Dayton found the romanticism in Dickens’ creations, Gisssing think that Dickens and Shakespeare, are the supreme idealist, he even directly called Dickens a “romantic realism ” [1 ];Jester Dayton that shaped the characters of Dickens is not a person like“ God ”, he called England Dickens,“ the last myth of writers, perhaps the greatest myth of writers ” [2].Modern British poet T.S.Eliot said that “Dickens's characters and the characters Dante and Shakespeare, like, all belong to the scope of poetry” [2].Indeed, the spirit of idealism to the romantic way Dickens can never exclude.In his work, romantic love is often described;the struggle of good over evil is romantic;figure of joys and sorrows of life and death is often romantic parting.Specific to the “Tale of Two Cities,” the novel, Carlton and Pross complete of their noble acts are on the very romantic, even when Cruncher from bad to good are also very impassioned, romantic and exciting atmosphere.A Tale of Two Cities is a true reflection of the times that all kinds of conflict and discord, quirks, depression, vitality and their unusual wealth.Although the details of Charles Dickens described unique, the characters sharp and detailed observation of the external characteristics, he may be described as a “realist” is not appropriate.1.2A suspense novel with wonderful story Dickens is good at creating suspense..A Tale of Two Cities is particularly successful in dramatized the plight of individuals with personality conflicts by a good structure and the tense atmosphere in the social historical background.At the beginning , the writer didn’t tell us the reason why Dt.Manette as a prison for 18 years.When Charles Darnay ask to Dr.Manette that he want to marry Lucie, Manette seemed to be aware of what cause for alarm, again and again to stop Darnay, asked him to repeat the morning of the marriage;the same evening, Manette again fall ill, the spirit of it Lost in the days of the Bastille.Even wondered for a moment the reader, however, not be explained Dickens.Readers can not help asking: what is the link of Darnay's life experience and Manette? Until the end of the book, people knows the link of Damay and Manette.By use of suspense, Dickens make the Manette as a person who see the bright side of human nature, and bring a wonderful story and the beauty of works of art for readers.The benevolence spirit and in the novel.2.1The justification of the revolutionA Tale of Two Cities“ was written in the 19th century 50's, a period of rapid economic development of capitalism.The capitalist development brings evils and impoverishment of working people's lives lead the British society to the edge of the outbreak of a social revolution.As early as 30~40years in 19c , the working class to fight for political rights, on a grand scale across the country launched a ”charter movement.“ Which Lenin called asthe world's first broad, truly mass, political, proletarian revolutionary movement[3] And this makes Dickens clearly aware of the 50's Britain and 18th century French society is very similar.For this reason,he decided to create a novel set in the French Revolution to Criticize the British social reality, provide a reference for the contemporary English, it is the background that the novel ”Tale of Two Cities“ in 1859 come out.”Tale of Two Cities“ is a historical theme of the novel, but Dickens's focus is firmly targeted at the real life.Works of the late 19th century French and British social life, extensive descriptions of the French Revolution broke out to explore the root causes are to the French Revolution's various social crisis and the reality of British society together, in an ancient metaphor for the modern use of way, warned the British rulers of the bourgeoisie: the cruel exploitation and oppression, the people's extreme poverty is the root of the revolution, if not alleviate the suffering of the civilian population, then the current outbreak of revolution in Britain is inevitable.Novels to social conflicts before the French Revolution shows very detailed and real, whether in cities or in rural areas ”, hunger rampant everywhere“, the majority of the people to ”mulberry grass“ for the food, while the upper class is extravagant, bully Pa women, among the country do not see ”a face with any respect,“ unbearable oppression, the people are ready to ”hang with a rope and pulley to the enemy.“ In
1859, Charles Dickens On the ”Tale of Two Cities“ creative experience, said: ”I spent a lot of time and effort to create“ Tale of Two Cities ”, after numerous changes, finally satisfied.Able to repay my creation your effort in any way any money and other things, but the novel's theme of the meaning and the joy of creation is complete.“[4] Indeed, the deep thinking of this for Dickens, regardless of their historical significance revealed and social significance, or possess its own aesthetic values are worthy descendants mining and exploration.2.2 Forgiveness Thought and the benevolence spirit ”Tale of Two Cities“ is a controversial novel, the lower revolutionary image Madame Defarge of the novel impact assessment is an important factor.Liang Shiqiu said: ”Dickens read the card depends on which of the“ French Revolution ”, was deeply moved and determined to try to write a history of the Romans.Karay and sent two cars for his reference book, but most are not Charles Dickens Canada used because he did not want to write the history of the revolution have been Carey and the best structure in the former, not to write the necessary, as long as he captures the atmosphere of that era, with a story to illustrate the bloodshed will only lead to more bloodshed, only love can save the hearts of catastrophe.“[5] This is insightful.Dickens is the French Revolution as the only carrier to reflect the sharp class antagonisms and intense class struggle, as reflected in this class antagonism and class struggle has shown a wide range of people and human nature, the expression of specific events that goes beyond and have a more general sense of things.Dickens in the novel shaped the way Lucie, Manette ,Darnay and Carlton the ideal of humanitarian character, in that they embodied a kind of humanity as the core of the Christmas spirit.Best embodies the spirit of this love to be part of the British lawyer Carlton, purely for love, his unconditional practice the ”I want for you and your loved ones and make all the sacrifices“ of the promise, help Lucie's husband escape the prison to arrange a road away from the danger , while he replace Darnay on the guillotine.The Lord said: I am the resurrection, life is in me;believes in me, though dead, yet he will live;whoever lives and believes in me will never die.”intended to emphasize the spirit of Carlton's benevolence and altruism world forever.Conclusion
A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens shows effectively the novelist’s aim to point out the injustice of oppression and the justification of the revolution.However, Dickens shows his strong criticism on the excess of bloodshed during the French Revolution, especially in his consideration of the innocent(like Charles Darnay)being punished along with the guilty.He feels that the old ways of oppression must be changed, and that much oppression and much misery inevitably lead to revolution, but when the revolution actually comes, he thinks that it is too violent and that the less bloodshed the better.The chief and the best portrayed figure is the benevolence spirit the leader of the revolution.
