作家描绘了一幅幅巴黎社会物欲横流的图画,暴露了在金钱支配下人的道德沦丧和冷酷无情。
Father Goriot is an 1835 novel by French novelist and playwright Honoré de Balzac (1799—1850), included in the Scènes de la vie Parisienne section of his novel sequence La Comédie humaine. Set in Paris in 1819, it follows the intertwined lives of three characters: the elderly doting Goriot; a mysterious criminal-in-hiding named Vautrin; and a naive law student named Eugène de Rastignac. The novel is noted as an example of his realist style, using minute details to create character and subtext.
物欲横流的巴黎社会图画,在金钱支配下人的道德沦丧。
The novel takes place during the Bourbon Restoration, which brought profound changes to French society; the struggle by individuals to secure a higher social status is a major theme in the book. The city of Paris also impresses itself on the characters—especially young Rastignac, who grew up in the provinces of southern France. Balzac analyzes, through Goriot and others, the nature of family and marriage, providing a pessimistic view of these institutions.
看罢《高老头》最直觉的疑问“谁弄脏了爱?”。这个问题在书中两个平行又交叉的故事中越来越清晰。他的现实主义的写作风格总是能做迎面揭露的法场。
人间的真情、美好的爱情、父母的亲情……这一切的一切在赤裸裸的金钱面前显得是那样苍白无力。
他生前的光辉带着痛苦与回忆,永远藏在那座孤独的坟墓中。
