(british) Maugham Et Al.
"The Moon and Sixpence": Charles, a banker, suddenly abandoned his wife and children and ran away from home in order to pursue his secret dream of painting. In a foreign country, he was poor and sick, but he became more determined and persistent in his dream. He said: I have to paint, just like a drowning person has to struggle. "Wuthering Heights": After the death of the old owner of Wuthering Heights, the gypsy outcast Heathcliff was tortured and humiliated by his son in every possible way. His beloved lover married another man, and Heathcliff had to leave the village. A few years later, he became famous and returned to the villa to take revenge. "Pride and Prejudice": The author Jane Austen uses the love story and self-growth of Squire Bennet's second daughter Elizabeth and the hero Darcy to lead readers to appreciate the rural life and worldly affairs of the British Regency period from the late 18th to the early 19th century. "The Red and the Black": Julien, the son of a carpenter, is eager to escape from his original class and get ahead through his intelligence, and is eager to establish great achievements like Napoleon. However, he was discovered by the mayor because of his affair with Madame Reina, and was forced to leave Besançon Seminary. Later, Julien fell in love with the Marquis, and his dream of joining the upper class seemed to be coming true, but an informant letter ruined his dream... "Notre Dame de Paris": Set in France in 1482, it tells the story of the gypsy girl Esmeralda The relationship with the young and handsome captain of the guard, the sanctimonious archdeacon and the deformed and ugly bell ringer is the main line. It passionately sings the noble character of the gypsy girl and the bell ringer, and deeply lashes out at the hypocrisy and despicability of the captain of the guard and the archdeacon. It embodies Hugo's artistic expression principle of "contrast between beauty and ugliness". Its publication broke the shackles of pseudo-classicism and marked the complete victory of romanticism. "Great Expectations": The orphan Pip has a crush on Estella, the adopted daughter of the noble Havisham, and develops a yearning for the upper class. A few years later, his dream came true. A mysterious man entrusted a lawyer to arrange for him to go to London to receive a higher education and inherit a large inheritance when he became an adult. Various coincidences made him think that he was selected by Havisham and would have a great future from now on. However, fate took another turn: the true identity of the mysterious man surfaced, and the so-called "Great Expectations" was just a dream of Pip... "Beautiful Friend": The male protagonist Duroy, who was born in the common class and retired from the army, later moved to Paris. "Carmen": The novel tells the adventures of Carmen, a free and uninhibited bohemian woman. Carmen is beautiful, outspoken and daring. She seduced the soldier Don Yucai, causing him to be expelled from the army, and also induced him to commit smuggling crimes with her. Later, Carmen fell in love with another woman, and conflicts between Don Yucai and her continued until she paid for it with her life... "A Life": It tells the story of the aristocratic woman Yona's unobtainable life in pursuit of happiness. With a keen eye, Maupassant noticed the close connection between women and nature. By describing the life of the aristocratic woman Yona whose ideals were constantly shattered, he raised thoughts on issues such as marriage and love under the "traditional" and patriarchal worldview, as well as people's reliance on religion.
