More than one hundred years paed, The heroine Te has already set up in the world literature, not only for this novel goes beyond the traditional virtues,but also for the heroine has great soul and human nature charm, that make Te be one of the most moving female images.Hardy made a deep interpretation for the western tragedy through the novel heroine Te's tragic fate : Te was a pure, beautiful and very industrious village girl,she desired for true, good and beautiful life, but she always was hit by hypocrisy and evils.The tragedy of Te began with she went “relatives” in order to work for family livelihood.Because she was young and lacked social experience, Alec D‟Urberville cheated Te‟s virgin chastity, she became a “fallen women”, condemned by public opinion as she was a filthy sinner.Afterwards Te fell in love with young man Angel Clare , she was abandoned by her husband for told him past stain on wedding night,she lost happine which just around the corner for her honesty.Due to the high family responsibility and self-sacrifice, Te forced against her will to be Alec's mistre again, exchange herself for family's survival.Finally her husband came back to her ,she felt angry and disappointed ,she
lifted the sword of revenge to killed Alec, finally have to pay the cost of life, Te ,a pure ,honest,kind,courageous, beautiful women was completely destroyed finally.Te, the heroine of Te of the D’Uberville is an idealized modern women.In Hardy's ideal world, Te is a symbol of beauty and the embodiment of love, represents all the good aspects of weex people: beautiful, pure, kind, simple, love, perseverance, and tolerance.She dared to sacrifice herself, dared to resist herself, and Cherished the good life.Her specific feeling is love and trust, has beautiful woman temperament, gentle and soft love, strong will, intense affection.She haven‟t the desire that pursue vanity through marriage, but insist self-esteem to pursue freedom.She want to work ,wish solve family problems by herself, when she ask for help at fake relatives Alec D‟Urberville.As soon as she found cheated, she resolutely left Alec.Te's soul is pure, morality is noble, but she was be seen as model of immorality, as the embodiment of lewd evil in front of the bourgeois morality.In capitalist society at that time , she became the people's mockery.Hardy‟view sharply opposed temporal social prejudice, He strongly attacked the hypocritical moral standards at that time.Hardy adhere that moral purity is the purity of mind, not depend on an occasional fault, more than her past, it depend on her future, so Te was “a pure woman”.But people insisted on traditional social customs that an occasional fault was irreversible and unforgivable downfall, so Te was a sinner who committed the crime of adultery.Hardy believeed that there is no perfect man in the world.Perfection of human nature embody in the understanding for life, love for life, abundant affection and faithful love, perfect purity only come from such perfect things.Although Angel Clare was a good young man, Hardy Severely criticized the
bourgeois ethics that represent by Clare, pointed out that it has become people's spiritual shackles.But just the ethics of customs and habits has a divine nature, is the unwritten law, is considered legitimate forever.Te just was the victim of the secular fallacy., Hardy deeply revealed the hypocrisy and badne of this kind of moral principles through Te‟s miserable experience, the cruelty of the moral principles was exposed.III.Conclusion The tragedy of Te is caused by social tragedy , fate tragedy and character tragedy.1、First, Te‟s tragedy is social tragedy.The era of Te's life is in the 1880 s.At this point, the British capitalism not only developed fastly in cities but also in villages(the dairy farm that Te worked in is a portrayal in the novel).With the invasion of the capitalism, step by step, the countryside farmer tended to bankrupt, became poor.Poor farmer's daughter as Te was, then wage earner as, her fate was tragic certainly.Therefore, Te's tragedy is social tragedy and era‟s tragedy.2、Second cause of Te‟s tragedy, She was the victim of violence, evil forces, and was the victim of laws, state machine that maintain violence and evil forces.This kind of represent of violence, evil forces is Alec D‟Urberville.3、Another main reason of Te‟s tragedy is that traditional ethics destroyed Te's spirit.
