Rebecca at Sunnybrook Farm
About This Novel
Rebecca lives in the home of two aunts, and the contradictions and conflicts between her and the rigid and conservative aunt Miranda reflect the rapid development of society after the American Civil War and the contradictions and struggles between old and new ideas, especially old and new educational ideas. Miranda wanted to use traditional concepts to shape Rebecca into a well-behaved lady, but Rebecca, with the influence of the social environment, school education, and the help of her teachers and friends, pursued knowledge, ideals, and freedom, and became a person who has a clear sense of love and hate, dares to do things, is helpful, full of love, and has a strong sense of responsibility. Not only did she change Aunt Miranda with her intelligence and strength of personality, making her cheerful and feel the joy of life, but also everyone who came into contact with her would be infected by her innocent, lively, imaginative and sympathetic character and like her. It is not without reason that she is regarded by Americans as "the model of American girls and women for a century."
