何海东

A Tale of Two Citles is a novel by Charles Dickens. The key events take place just before and during the French Revolution. The novel Is set mostly in London and revolutionary Parts. In my opinion, It is a tale about love, tolerance and revenge. Flrst of all, let's turn to love, It is the love of Sydney Carton hears that Lucle Manette will get married to Charles Damay, Instead of being angry, he promises Lucle that he would give his life to keep someone she loves alive because he loves her so much. This kind of love is beyond love itself. In the end, he keeps his promise. Then it comes to tolerance. Compared to the revenge of Madame Therese Defarge, the tolerance of Dr. Alexander Manette is preclus and meaningful. Revenge comes at last. Dickens has a gift for telling about the aspects of contemporary society. It is common sense to regard a revolution as a progressive social movement which causes great changes in culture, economy and politics. However, Dickens maintains a special perspective on the French Revolution. The Gullotine cut off the heads of many, many people the powerful and the cruel, but also the beautiful, the innocent and the good. Everything has two sides, the same goes for the revolution. It removes something bad, laggard and evil, and to some extent, it removes something good, nice and fair inevitably.
