Hester Prynne: Boston settler who commits adultery and bears a child while awaiting the arrival of her husband from Europe.Authorities require her to wear a piece of red cloth in the shape of an A(standing for adulteress)on the bodice of her dress to identify her as a sinner.She refuses to identify her partner in sin.Hester is named after the title character of an Old Testament book.In that book, Esther–a Jew who marries the King of Persia, Ahasuerus(Xerxes I)–and her cousin Mordecai persuade the king to spare the lives of Jews previously singled out for annihilation.The Jewish festival of Purim, also called the Feast of Lots, celebrates their deliverance from the Persian sword.Pearl: Hester’s child.As her name suggests, she is something good that came from sin.She is also a constant reminder–to Hester and to the townspeople–of Hester's sinfulness.At times, she is an unruly child, a burden to her mother.But Hester loves her just the same

第五篇:《紅字》讀后感
《紅字》讀后感3篇
《紅字》讀后感1
《紅字》是我許久以后遇到的一本振奮人心的好書,因為文化風俗的差異,對外國的名著一直帶著一種似是而非的解讀,因此也就顯得不倫不類。但是,美國作家霍桑的長篇小說《紅字》卻是一本比較容易讀懂的書,因為它更是關(guān)于人性的。
《紅字》講述了17世紀清教殖民統(tǒng)治下,在波士頓發(fā)生的一個戀愛悲劇。女主人海絲特·白蘭以為丈夫在海難中已經(jīng)遭遇不幸。在孤獨中白蘭與牧師丁梅斯代爾相戀并生下女兒珠兒。白蘭被當眾懲罰,戴上標志"通奸"的紅色A字示眾。然而,在眾人鄙視的目光中,白蘭始終獨自承擔著所謂的"恥辱"與"罪惡",她不斷熱心接濟和幫助別人,最終贏得了人們的尊敬,而經(jīng)過多年的窺探,她的丈夫羅杰也認定了"道德偉大"的丁梅斯代爾牧師就是那個隱藏的同犯。于是他千方百計地接近牧師,旁敲側(cè)擊,冷嘲熱諷,不停地在精神上對牧師進行折磨。最終,牧師被白蘭的勇敢所感染,決定和她以及小珠兒一起離開這個地方。然而,牧師病情加重,在他生命的最后,他勇敢的走向了曾經(jīng)白蘭受罰的邢臺,坦誠他所認為的"罪"。
海絲特·白蘭,勇敢者,憑借愛情與其堅毅贏得生之希望,她對愛人的守望,對愛情那清晰明了的堅持,永不背叛。雖然她無法擺脫強加在她身上的恥辱,但她內(nèi)心深處的感情卻敬請澎湃,無法遏制。她認為追求愛情是自然的事,是人的本性,與社會、宗教、道德無關(guān)。"正是因為她和丁梅斯代爾先生的愛情,使她能夠在眾人的'白眼中堅守下來。
《紅字》讀后感2
今天,我讀了《紅字》這一本書,《紅字》主要講海絲特出身于英國的貴族家庭,由于家中落迫,被迫嫁給一個身材畸形的老者,途經(jīng)荷蘭,丈夫有事停留,讓她先回去,兩年后丈夫卻杳無音訊。
其間,海絲特暗中與年輕的牧師阿瑟·丁梅斯代爾相愛,并生下了一個女孩。海絲特的行為觸犯了教規(guī),但是她堅持不肯講出她的同犯,當她懷抱嬰兒在刑臺上示眾的時候,她的丈夫回來了。為了隱藏他和海絲特的奸夫以求報復,他費盡心機終于發(fā)現(xiàn)此人就是丁斯代爾牧師。他想盡一切辦法折磨牧師,在精神和肉體上摧殘他,牧師經(jīng)受不住長期的折磨而即將死去,死前他向全體市民講出真相。
海絲特死后,她和牧師合用一個墓碑,上面刻著一個鮮紅的A字。讀完整本書,我對清教的虛偽和殘忍而感到痛恨。記得論語中有一句話:子曰:巧言令色,鮮矣仁。意思就是說:滿臉是討人喜歡的神情,滿嘴是討人喜歡的花言巧語,這種人仁德是不多見的。也就是這種人一生都是虛偽的,難道你不可以展示你真實的面貌嗎?
你用你的虛偽出人頭地,但是沒過多久就會被人看破,你弄假,總有一天會被人識破的。我曾從電視里看過,有些人賣假酒、賣假煙,害死了很多人,不也是被人民識破的。希望這個世界上永遠沒有虛偽的人。
《紅字》讀后感3
疫情期間在家無聊讀了很多書,我覺得沒事了讀讀書能讓我們變得更好,今天我們就說說紅字這本書。
《紅字》是美國浪漫主義作家霍桑創(chuàng)作的長篇小說。發(fā)表于1850年?!都t字》講述了發(fā)生在北美殖民時期的戀愛悲劇。女主人公海絲特·白蘭嫁給了醫(yī)生奇靈渥斯,他們之間卻沒有愛情。在孤獨中白蘭與牧師丁梅斯代爾相戀并生下女兒珠兒。白蘭被當眾懲罰,戴上標志“通奸”的紅色A字示眾。然而白蘭堅貞不屈,拒不說出孩子的父親。小說慣用象征手法,人物、情節(jié)和語言都頗具主觀想象色彩,在描寫中又常把人的心理活動和直覺放在首位。因此,它不僅是美國浪漫主義小說的代表作,同時也被稱作是美國心理分析小說的開創(chuàng)篇。
小說以兩百多年前的殖民地時代的美洲為題材,但揭露的卻是19世紀資本主義發(fā)展時代美利堅合眾國社會典法的殘酷、宗教的欺騙和道德的虛偽。主人公海絲特被寫成了崇高道德的化身。她不但感化了表里不一的丁梅斯代爾,同時也在感化著充滿罪惡的社會。
讀了這本小說能讓我感到當時社會的黑暗,更能理解現(xiàn)在生活美好的來之不易。
