How Steel Is Tempered (Masterpiece of World Literature)

"How Steel Was Tempered" is a famous work in Soviet socialist literature. The main achievement of the work is to create the perfect artistic model of Paul Korchagin. The author strictly followed the reality of life when portraying this character. He did not regard Paul's strong will and strong character as innate, but considered them to be tempered in heroic battles and hard labor, assiduous study and strict self-discipline.

I still get tears in my eyes when I rewatch it after many years. This work and Hemingway's "For Whom the Bell Tolls" had a huge impact on my outlook on life when I was a child. In my mind, what is a real man? Just people like Paul and Robert.

I was originally forced to read it because of my school's winter vacation homework. But it's really better than expected. Paul is really admirable. One chapter is quite long, but I feel a sense of accomplishment after reading it. It is now 1:06 am on February 21st, Beijing time! I checked in and finally finished writing my reading notes!

This book is an autobiographical novel written by the author Ostrovsky based on himself. The article describes Korchagin's four narrow escapes from death, with ups and downs and full of humor, attracting readers and stimulating their interest in reading.

This book made me deeply understand the darkness of society at that time, and I was very fortunate that even in such an environment, strong-willed people who were not afraid of suffering and setbacks would still be born. Paul's body would be damaged, but his spirit would last forever, and it would be tempered into steel [Blowing Kiss] (My essay is not qualified for narration, sorry) Therefore, people must learn to face their fears, and move forward bravely even if the road ahead is gloomy. The wind, rain, and hardships along the way have made the soul more resolute. The physical damage is not enough to erase my unyielding soul. You can never defeat me, because my will will last forever!

From being ambitious and brave and good at fighting, to being as clear as a mirror and unsmiling. What kind of things the protagonist Paul has experienced? Only by savoring it carefully can we discover the ups and downs of Paul's life.

It was a book that I loved when I was a child, and now I have a very warm feeling when I read it. Regardless of political stance, this is a very good novel. Even taking into account political factors, their generation of Bolsheviks was very happy. Be able to fight for your ideals all your life and return before your ideals are shattered. The greatest happiness in life is nothing more than this. What do you think of the ignorant and brainwashed public intellectuals, are you so happy?

This book mainly tells the growth process of Paul Korchagin. One of the words that impressed me the most was what Ostrovsky said "Steel is forged in fire and sudden cold. Only in this way can it be hard and not afraid of anything. Our generation was also tempered in such struggles and arduous tests. And we learned not to be decadent in the face of life." This also made me understand that only when a person defeats the enemy and himself in the hardships of the revolution, and only when he links his pursuit with the interests of the motherland and the people, can he create miracles and grow into a steel warrior. Just as Mencius said, "When heaven is about to entrust a great responsibility to a person, he must first strain his mind, strain his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, deplete his body, and mess up his actions. Therefore, if you are tempted to endure, you will benefit what you can't do." This is a very good book. I will benefit a lot from reading it. It is worth reading.

As the title of the book lives up to, steel is tempered in the oven of life and beaten repeatedly before it is finally achieved. Paul, you are forever young and passionate!

Steel needs to be tempered for thousands of times, and it will never become a great thing until the last moment. The words in the book reveal that it will never stop. Paul seems to have never had a good rest and has been struggling, which makes people worried and proud.

Super nice book, I like it so much😍😍

Very inspiring and touching. This iron will is what I need to learn. What reason is there to give up your life? Just keep moving towards your goal unswervingly and struggle.

Finally finished reading it! This book is pretty good, although some of the characters talk without knowing who they are talking to, especially when there are a lot of people.

It's a good read. The story mainly describes the hardships of the Red Army uprising at that time. Through the experiences of some people, I realized the darkness of the world at that time. Although the protagonist Paul was a bit stubborn, which puzzled me, it did not prevent me from admiring this man. He was resolute and strong, and his heart was like a piece of calcined red iron. Even though he was paralyzed, he could not stop this man's desire to fight and burn. This is an idol worthy of worship, pursuit and learning throughout my life.

Record the fourth book I read in my freshman year. After reading this book, the shock in my heart could not subside for a long time, and I felt an indescribable feeling. While reading, I would be happy, sad, worried, and regretful for Paul, but more importantly, I was moved by Paul's steely spirit of never giving up. Whenever I see Paul encountering difficulties that are increasingly difficult to overcome, I always feel worried for him, worried that he will be defeated and give up, but the facts tell me that he will never give up fighting! All in all, I think this is my favorite book so far. It really gave me so many feelings and inspirations.

Needless to say, this masterpiece is worth recommending. Next book: Fu Lei's family letters

Beautiful! There are also linguistic theories analyzed by top scholars in the comment area!

During the winter vacation, you must read How Steel Was Tempered and Classical Frequently Asked Questions 😎 But it's quite interesting.

Read it in a physical book. The relationship between Paul and Tonya is the softest and most unforgettable chapter in the book. This innocent love that started in the breeze by the lake finally ended in the gap between the times and ideals, full of regretful regret. The relationship between Paul and Tonya is the softest and most disappointing chapter in the novel. This innocent love that started in the breeze by the lake finally ended in the gap between the times and ideals, full of regretful regret. Their encounter was an unadulterated beauty: Paul, a poor and stubborn young man, met Tonya, a gentle and pure woman who did not despise his origin. She puts aside the class barrier, and he lets go of his inner guard. The companionship in the abandoned quarry, the spiritual resonance in the books, and the mutual support in times of crisis are the purest heartbeats and attachments of young girls. This relationship has nothing to do with revolution or belief, it is just the natural closeness of two young hearts. It is the gentlest youthful background in Paul's iron-blooded life, and it is so beautiful that people cherish it. But the torrent of time eventually washed away this beauty. It's not that there is any rift between the two, nor is there any betrayal or hurt, it's just that the choices of life paths have quietly diverged. Paul regards revolutionary beliefs and collective ideals as the entirety of his life, while Tonya sticks to her personal life and inner comfort. The two gradually move from being connected to each other to being incompatible with each other. No one is right or wrong, it's just the gap between faith and life that makes it impossible to place the deep love once, and even walking side by side becomes a luxury. Paul endured the pain and broke up, not because he didn't love him, but because his ideals couldn't be compromised; Dongnia stuck to her heart and was only loyal to her own choice. We meet again after many years as strangers, things have changed and people have changed. The once-loved ones are only filled with alienation, and the deep love of youth is completely crushed in reality. We deeply regret that the innocent first love without utilitarianism could not withstand the gap between the times and ideals; it is a pity that two people who sincerely treat each other can only part ways at the crossroads of life; it is a pity that the only tender affection in Paul's iron-blooded career only left endless regrets in the end, becoming the most heart-wrenching emotion in the book.

Although I was forced to read it, to be honest, I got into it. It is a very good book. I would feel freer if I put aside my political stance, but this is the general background and it would be unwritten if I put it aside. It expresses the author's thoughts, very good! ! !

Because the teacher asked me to choose one of the eight books during the winter vacation, I chose this book "How the Steel Was Tempered". I read it with gusto and I thought it was quite interesting. Paul gradually grew and transformed from a slightly immature boy to a man who experienced many hardships. A true revolutionary warrior, what touched me most was Paul's strong will and firm belief that he never surrendered or bowed his head in the face of fate. He did not feel sad or choose to leave because of the hardships and difficulties he faced one after another, but took the undying faith in his heart With his love for the revolutionary cause, Paul continued sincerely, and the persistent and strong Paul also made his dream that he had longed for day and night become a reality. This is the success that Paul deserves. These few words are full of Paul's day and night efforts and his strong ability to withstand pressure to fight against the disease. , Paul did it, and I feel that this book also inspired me a lot in a big sense. Even though Paul suffered so many hardships, he always maintained an optimistic and positive attitude without losing hope. Why can't I try to be stronger, or in other words, how much have I paid for it? The ending is very touching. Perseverance will make you understand the meaning of hard work one day, so I think Paul's experience is worth pondering for all of us.

The language is unpretentious. In some aspects, environmental description is used to highlight the psychological journey of the characters. Many things can reveal the character of the protagonist Paul Korchagin who hates evil and hates evil. It is not difficult to see the fearless spirit displayed to readers from the book. Dare to rebel against the old society. Don't bow to the evil forces of the past and fight for them through hardships and hardships, etc. 🎐

The description of the environment is very wonderful. Not only is it beautiful, but it also gives you an immersive feeling. In addition, the characters of each character in the book are described very realistically, and it can also highlight the cruelty of war. This can be considered an anti-war novel. I recommend everyone to read it.

The only book I never tire of reading, and I also like to compare the various versions (each version has deletions and additions). The Hundred Regiments War was so awkward for me to read. This is the real revolutionary romantic literature [I learned it]

A masterpiece is indeed a masterpiece. It made my blood boil. Especially the part about Seryosha's sister Varya's death impressed me the most. After being raped and severely beaten by the enemy, even though her body was so weak that she needed to be supported by others to go to the execution ground, she mentally refused to give in to the enemy until she stood on the execution ground. She was also determined to "die bravely", and she did it: she and two other comrades who were about to be hanged sang the "Song of the Warsaw Revolution" together, and the military police whipped them with riding whips, but they seemed not to feel the pain. Finally, they died heroically in the sound of other Red Army soldiers singing the "Internationale" loudly. After reading this paragraph, I was deeply shocked by Varya's unyielding and death-defying revolutionary spirit. I felt her determination and tenacity, and the firm fighting consciousness and loyalty to the revolutionary cause of Red Army soldiers like her at that time. Here, I also express my silence and the highest respect for all the Red Army soldiers who died in the war. (My writing skills are poor, so I just wrote down my thoughts after reading it. If you don't like it, don't criticize it, but this is indeed a very good book. I recommend everyone to read it)

Whenever I encounter difficulties, whenever I work hard, and Paul Korchagin flashes in my mind, I will be fearless and face it bravely. He is a hero of an era, an example for us to learn from and a driving force for progress.

There is not much to say. The plot is compact and interlocking, perfectly showing the whole process of a young worker's transformation. To be honest, when I first saw the title of this book when I was a child, I really thought it was about how a man made steel. Now I realize that I am belittling this book.

Iron will, the brave man of life! I would rather burn vigorously for a year than hang around in confusion for five years! Any wasted time is a waste of life, take action! Life needs to burn and bloom. Only such a life is valuable!

The more I watch, the better it gets. Although the protagonist's image in the early stage is not very good, in the later stage, I just want to shout: Paul is a real man!

An undoubted classic, Paul's story perfectly fits the true meaning of the name "How Steel Was Tempered". From the progress of the story, we can continuously see Paul's gradual progress and his tenacious fighting spirit. The supporting characters in it are also flesh and blood.
