《双城记》英文读后感1

　　Recently I read a novel called A Tale of Two Cities. The novel is based on the French Revolution. It was 1775,both England and France were on the verge of Revolution .England"s king ,George Ⅲ,was having trouble with his American colonies .And France "s king ,LouisⅩⅥ, was too concerned with his own wealth to worry about his people .

　　Therefore, neither king noticed the changes taking place in his country .They didn"t realize ,or care ,that the peasants were hungry and unhappy .They never thought that anything was wrong with the way things were .They were wealthy ,and they thought only of themselves.

　　But the peasants were tired of being treated unfairly. They were tired of watching the kings waste money while their own children starved. So, in both London and Paris, the lower classes prepared to revolt .They were ready to force the kings to make a change.

　　Then one day in July of 1789, the Revolution began in France .Armed peasants ran through the streets of Saint Antoine .Their leader, Ernest Defarge continued to pass out weapons. The men cheered and waved their weapons in the air .Then, they marched toward the Bastille.

　　The novel also talks the story of two men, Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton., who look similar but are very different in personality. Darnay is a romantic French aristocrat, his uncle is the Marquis St.

　　Evremonde. The Marquis is infamous for his cruelty. While is a cynical English barrister. However, the two are in love with the same woman, Lucie Manette.

　　Charles Darnay is not cruel like his uncle has been. When he knew his servant is in danger, he went to France at once to defend him. He had promised his mother that he would help the peasants. He had a hard time traveling through France. When he finally reached Paris, he was taken prisoner. In my point of view, Charles Darnay is innocent, he is not cruel.

　　The other one is Sydney Carton.

　　In my opinion, he is a wonderful man. He once said,‘I am not worthy of your love, but I want you to know that I wish for your happiness. I hope that we will able to remain close friends. Miss Manette, I would give my life for you. Never forget that, Lucie.’ Eventually, he was to die in Charles Darnay’s place. Because Charles Darnay is Lucie’s husband, and they led a happy life. In order to help Lucie live a enjoyable life, he was to die in Charles Darnay’s place.

　　From the novel "A tale of two cities ".I learn much ,not only the Revolution in two different cities ,but also the deep relationship between people .I"m impressed by Mr. Manette"s tough spirit ,never give in to difficulties .Even though he had been imprisoned a long time ,he struggled to live. He was also an upright man .When his son -in -law was arrested by the Revolutionists, Dr.Manette strongly defended Charles Darnay ,hoped that the Revolutionists could release Charles Darnay .

　　Lucie Manette gives me a deep impression .At the beginning of the novel, I learn that her father had passed, but then,Mr. Lorry told her that her father was still alive. Because Lucie "s father was imprisoned for a long time .Her mother begged the king to help her ,but he gave no re* .She suffered terribly when her husband disappeared ,so she told her daughter that her father had died .But she never stopped looking for Lucie"s father .The king was of no help ,and she never found even one clue .Two years after his disappearance ,she died .

　　I am dee* impressed by the other characters in the novel.

　　Mr.Lorry is also a good man ,at the first of the novel ,when he met Miss Lucie ,and told her that her father was still alive .Besides ,he helped her

　　to find her father in Paris .On the way to Paris ,they experienced many difficulties .But Mr.Lorry didn"t give up helping Miss Lucie and Lucie "s father .As far as I concerned ,it not only show his hospitality but also show his hatred to the European royal.

　　In Paris, the Marquis St. Evrémonde, Darnay"s uncle, is returning from an audience with Monseigneur, one of the "greatest lords in France", when his coach runs over and kills the son of the peasant Gaspard; he throws a coin to Gaspard to compensate him for his loss; in the assembled crowd is the implacable tricoteuse, Madame Defarge. He throws the money back, enraging the Marquis and leading him to exclaim that he would willingly kill any of the peasants of France.

　　If I were a peasant at that time in England or France,I would join in the revolution with no hesitation .All man are equal .The king of country should concern his people whether they are starving or homeless .We can learn much from history in our country or in other countries ,only when the leader of the country cares much about his people"s life can the country be stronger .People are the base of the country ,without people ,country can not be stronger and can not develop.

双城记英文读后感1

A tale of two cities is one of dickens"s most important representative works. Long before writing a tale of two cities, dickens is very concern on the French revolution, reread the British historian, Carlyle"s "French revolution" and other scholar"s related works. His strong interest of the French revolution began in the British lurking at the time the concerns of the serious social crisis. At the end of 1854, he said: "I believe that dissatisfaction like smoke fire up worse than, this special like the public before the French revolution for the first time, it"s danger, for one thousand kinds of reasons, such as poor harvest, the nobility of bossy and incompetent the already tense situation last to defeat in war, overseas and domestic events and so on -- into that have never seen a terrible fire." Visible, a tale of two cities of the historical novel creation motive sees, in the history of the French revolution experience for reference, to the bell of the ruling class; At the same time, through the extreme portrayal of the revolutionary terrorist, also to harbor resentment, attempting to violence against the tyranny of the masses, warned that fantasy for the status quo of social contradictions increasingly deepen to find a way out.

Starting from this purpose, the novel profoundly revealed before the French revolution dee* intensified the social contradictions, strongly criticized aristocracy dissolute brutal, and deep sympathy for the lower people"s suffering. Work pointedly said, the people"s patience is limited, under the cruel rule of the noble class, the people under the livelihood, is bound to fight. This kind of resistance is justice. Novel in people"s uprising against the bastille, etc, was also depicted spectacular scenes, shows the great power of the people. However, author station on the bourgeois humanitarian grounds, namely against brutal tyranny which oppressed the people, people also objected to revolt against the tyranny of the violence. In Charles Dickens, the revolution is portrayed as a great disaster of destruction, it ruthlessly punish evil gentry class, also kill innocent people blindly.

The novel created three types of characters. Category is urban Mr Monte marquis brother as a representative of the feudal aristocracy, they only unshakable philosophy is "oppression", is the author of pain and flay object. Another kind is to cut stone couples, such as the revolutionary masses. It must be pointed out that their image is distorted. Such as cutting stone wife, Diana, she was born in peasant, insulted, persecution of the feudal nobles with great hatred, the author dee* sympathize with her misery, really appreciated her strong personality, before and after the revolution, excellent talents and extraordinary leadership ability; But when revolution is further thorough, a pen and put her as a ruthless, fierce, narrow avenger. Especially when her to the doctor house raids dasey, "and the path is characterized by more bloodthirsty men. Finally, the author let her die under his muzzle, makes it clear that the negative attitude. The third kind is ideal character, the author thinks to humanitarian resolving social contradictions, in order to love overcome hatred, including speech, father and daughter, darnay, unquestioned and Carl"s, etc. Meini, the doctor is marquis brother may have caused the destruction of the marquis brother with great hatred, but for the sake of her daughter"s love, can abandon the old feud hate; Darnay is marquis brother"s sons and nephews, his big end, condemn the sin of his family abandoned the rank of nobility and property, are determined to "sin" with their own actions. This to reflect the character of each other, one is the victim of the aristocratic tyranny and tolerance for pregnant; One is the successor to the noble marquis, advocate benevolence. Among them, more as a daughter and wife ". Hold in the bond of love, they form a mutual understanding, emotion harmonious happy family. This is obviously the author thought a violent revolution and the opposite way out of resolving social contradictions, is unrealistic.

A tale of two cities is different from general historical novel, its character and the main plot are imaginary. During the French revolution broad real background, the author clues to give priority to with fictional characters meini, doctor"s experience, the unjust charge three independent each other, love and revenge and interconnected stories interweave together, intricate plot, intricate plot. The author take the flashbacks, interleave technique such as, stage, bedding, make the novel complete structure, tense and dramatic plot twists and turns, showed excellent artistic skills. A tale of two cities style solemn, depressed, etc, but the lack of humor early works.

　　It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incre*ty, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way

　　Charles Dickens（1812～1870），one of the greatest novelist in England. I have read his A tale of two cities .And this is the beginning of the book.

　　“A Tale of Two Cities”, one of Dickens’ works, is a well-known long story. And it has a great influence on the society at that time. When I saw the title at first, I thought it might tell something about the developing process of two cities, which might be no fun. However, after reading it , I found I had been wrong.

　　It portrays a brutal, bloody and revengeful society as well as love and friendship. It happened before and after the Revolution in France. The ruthless and cruel landowners and noblemen exploited the miserable people who owned nothing, but these poor people worked for others day and night. Noblemen had the power that one word would doubtlessly send others to prison. As time passed by, the noise of the coming-up revolution storm in Paris was growing louder and louder. At last, it was on the fourteenth of July, 1789 that the revolution broke out.

　　“The Bastille and its officers were in the hands of people, and the people wanted revenge and blood.” The true Freedom of France came. “The Guillotine, the new machine of death, cut off the heads of many, many people—not only the powerful and the cruel, but also the beautiful, the innocent, and the good.” Among the good, there was a man called Darney. Even though his father, wife and friends knew he was innocent, the people thought he was the enemy and would go to the Guillotine.

　　In spite of a shadow of fear and hate here and there, we can also see the great and kind persons. I think the greatest person is Mr. Manette who had been a prisoner in the Bastille for eighteen years. What he suffered was difficult to imagine, but he was still kind and loved his daughter. He did his best to save his son-in-law, whose father and uncle were the men that had ever sent him to prison. Another great man is the lawyer, Sydney Carton, a friend of Darney. Before Darney went to Guillotine, Mr. Carton changed places with him and he said, “It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever know.” Besides, the story is full of love, including the love between father and daughter, the love between husband and wife, the love among friends and so on. In short, only if you have love in your heart, the life is meaningful. At the same time, the revenge will run away with you, freedom and happiness will be around you.

　　There is no doubt that Charles Dickens is one of the greatest writers

　　in English. From this book, I see some true lives and moving stories from the old ages. I think you must feel the same as me that we don’t want to live in that condition. To be frank, we all look forward to living in a peaceful and love situation. Though the present life has improved a lot, there are still wars in some places. All that we need is to solve the problems in peaceful ways instead of by force. So let’s work hard together in order to make our life much more meaningful and happier, make our society more harmonious.

　　But the peasants were tired of being treated unfairly. They were tired of watching the kings waste money while their own children starved. So, in both London and Paris, the lower classes prepared to revolt .They were ready to force the kings to make a change.

　　In my opinion, he is a wonderful man. He once said,‘I am not worthy of your love, but I want you to know that I wish for your happiness. I hope that we will able to remain close friends. Miss Manette, I would give my life for you. Never forget that, Lucie.’ Eventually, he was to die in Charles Darnay’s place. Because Charles Darnay is Lucie’s husband, and they led a happy life.

He was also an upright man .When his son -in -law was arrested by the Revolutionists, Dr.Manette strongly defended Charles Darnay ,hoped that the Revolutionists could release Charles Darnay .

　　A Tale of Two Cities was written by Charles Dickens, who was born in Portsmouth, England in 1812. As the second of eight children, Dickens had to go to work at the age of twelve to support his poor family, and he lived a difficult childhood. This troublesome time scarred him dee* and provided him with substantial material for such stories as Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, and Great Expectations. Though just accepted only little education, Dickens became a famous writer through his struggling self-learning and extremely hard work, and he was the representative writer of realism in the 19th century.

　　Charles Dickens lived in the period of transition between feudalism and capitalism, when the industrial revolution originated in England swept through Europe. As large numbers of workers invaded into urban centers to earn a living, the bourgeois took advantages of the surplus of labor by keeping wages low. The poor thus remained poor, and often lived in a narrow and filthy environment. Dickens’ writing depicted various directions about this society, and provided a keen, sympathetic chronicle of the plight of the urban poor.

　　A Tale of Two Cities mainly about the great atrocities of French aristocrats compelled the poor citizens to resist violently. Doctor Manette spent eighteen years as a prisoner in Bastille because he intended to expose the atrocity after learning that

　　Marquis Evrémonde killed a beautiful farmwife and her younger brother because of his brother’s lust. After Doctor Manette was free again, his daughter Lucie got married with Charles Darnay, Marquis Evrémonde’s nephew, but chose to live in England because he could not accept the cruel injustices of the French social system and the snobbish and cruel values of his uncle. However, Marquis Evrémonde continued his atrocities. After his crazy carriage crushed over a farmer’s little baby as if nothing happen, he was killed at night. A revolutionary storm was brewing. Mr. and Mrs.Defarge were the revolutionaries in the poor Saint Antoine section of Paris. They wanted to kill all French aristocrats, including Charles Darnay. Mr.Defarge used to be Doctor Manette’s servant, so he was kind to Manettes, while his wife’s heart burned with longing for revenge. At last, Charles Darnay was judged to death, But Sydney Carton, a lawyer who loved Lucie dee*, willing to die instead of Darnay, as they had similar appearance.

　　From my personal point of view, the person A Tale of Two Cities described astounded me very much. Some of them were cruel, crazy and reasonless, while some of them were kind, moral and had own mind.

　　Sydney Carton was the person I thought the most. He was a smart attorney, without his help, Mr. Stryver could not solve any cases. But he was lazy, alcoholic, and cared nothing and nobody, he even could not find any interests in his own life, it seems that he lived just for wasting life. But he loved Lucie dee*. Finally, he became a hero, because he sacrificed his life to save Darnay. I didn’t know why the author spent so many words to form such a strange guy at frist, he used his life to love Lucie, after all. But now, I caught it. Perhaps the terrible Carton symbolized the terrible old France, and his change in the end shown that everything could change, including the old France, a new and fine society would replace the violence.

　　Then, Charles Darnay. He was worthy of esteem or respect. He displayed great virtue in his rejection of his uncle, Marquis Evrémonde. Money and power meant nothing to him, if they came from exploitation and oppression. Even though he had to inherit his uncle’s bequest, he left them to the poor and lived in London throught his own effort. When he realized that he must go back to Paris to help Gabelle, one of his servants, and make right the wrong his uncle had done, he acted without hesitation because he knew that was his duty. He even refused Carton’s help after he was judged to death. I thought, Charles Darnay was a shiny diamond in that cruel and violent society, and he was a hope, the hope of equality and peace.

　　Third, Mrs.Defarge. How crazy this woman was. Nobody could stop her steps toward revenge, except the death. Although it said that wherever there is oppression, there is resistance, I didn’t agree with Mrs.Defarge totally. Her resistance was inhumane, insensible and endless. For just as the aristocracy’s oppression had made an oppressor Mrs.Defarge herself, so will her oppression, in turn, make oppressors her victims. In the end of the novel, her death by a bullet from her own gun. It shown the author’s belief that inordinate retaliated lust would destroy one own self.

　　On the whole, A Tale of Two Cities is a successful novel. It shows us oppression and resistance, violence and terror, revolution and vengeance, love and friendship.

　　I am lucky enough to live in the 21st century, when peace and development are pursued all along. Nowadays, there also are many problems and dissensions among this world, but violence does not the best way problems are solved. Violence just creates more problems, something every sensible person knows. What we need are talks and communication. The time A Tale of Two Cities mentions has gone, we should do enough preparation to adapt the coming age.

　　Charles Dickens(1812～1870),one of the greatest novelist in England. I have read his A tale of two cities .And this is the beginning of the book.

　　“A Tale of Two Cities”, one of Dickens’ works, is a well-known long story. And it has a great influence on the society at that time. When I saw the title at first, I thought it might tell something about the developing process of two cities, which might be no fun. However, after reading it , I found I had been wrong.

　　It portrays a brutal, bloody and revengeful society as well as love and friendship. It happened before and after the Revolution in France. The ruthless and cruel landowners and noblemen exploited the miserable people who owned nothing, but these poor people worked for others day and night. Noblemen had the power that one word would doubtlessly send others to prison. As time passed by, the noise of the coming-up revolution storm in Paris was growing louder and louder. At last, it was on the fourteenth of July, 1789 that the revolution broke out.

　　“The Bastille and its officers were in the hands of people, and the people wanted revenge and blood.” The true Freedom of France came. “The Guillotine, the new machine of death, cut off the heads of many, many people-not only the powerful and the cruel, but also the beautiful, the innocent, and the good.” Among the good, there was a man called Darney. Even though his father, wife and friends knew he was innocent, the people thought he was the enemy and would go to the Guillotine.

　　In spite of a shadow of fear and hate here and there, we can also see the great and kind persons. I think the greatest person is Mr. Manette who had been a prisoner in the Bastille for eighteen years. What he suffered was difficult to imagine, but he was still kind and loved his daughter. He did his best to save his son-in-law, whose father and uncle were the men that had ever sent him to prison. Another great man is the lawyer, Sydney Carton, a friend of Darney. Before Darney went to Guillotine, Mr. Carton changed places with him and he said, “It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever know.” Besides, the story is full of love, including the love between father and daughter, the love between husband and wife, the love among friends and so on. In short, only if you have love in your heart, the life is meaningful. At the same time, the revenge will run away with you, freedom and happiness will be around you.

　　There is no doubt that Charles Dickens is one of the greatest writers in English. From this book, I see some true lives and moving stories from the old ages. I think you must feel the same as me that we don’t want to live in that condition. To be frank, we all look forward to living in a peaceful and love situation. Though the present life has improved a lot, there are still wars in some places. All that we need is to solve the problems in peaceful ways instead of by force. So let’s work hard together in order to make our life much more meaningful and happier, make our society more harmonious.

　　As we all know, Charles Dickens novel A Tale of Two Cities is a novel based on the French Revolution in the late 1800s. In that terrible time, every moment was full of great fear.

The style A tale of two cities is solemnity and melancholy, fills indignation, but lacks the humor of the early works.

　　Besides, this novel criticizes the violence and oppression in the society. In this novel, the author not only expresses his humanitarianism on the love between human beings, but also expresses his view according to his critics to the violence and oppression in that society. The author expresses his opinion on two parts. First, he criticizes the aristocrats, esp. the representative Marquis of Evremonde. Second, he also criticizes the revolutionaries in the French Revolution. However, when we see from the description of the couple, the author does not think high of the revolution. When the revolutionaries begin their revenge, the author describes that everyone is terrible, the man is terrible, the woman crazy, and there is not a human creature at that time. We can see although the author does not show his agreement to the aristocrats’ cruelty, he does not like the bloody revolution, either.

　　What is more, this novel advocates the Christian love and self-sacrifice. Charles Dickens novel A Tale of Two Cities is essentially a tale of love, sacrifice, and, most importantly, resurrection. Dr. Manette, Charles Darnay, and Sydney Carton, all desperate men leading catastrophic lives, make great sacrifices in order to attain true physical, spiritual, and societal resurrection for themselves and the ones they love. In this novel, the author portrays some typical characters that embody the author’s view. First, he portrays some kind, upright and humane persons, such as Dr. Manette, Lucie Manette, Mr. Lorry, etc. But at the same time, he also portrays some cruel and ferocious persons, such as the Marquis of Evremonde Brothers, Mr. and Mrs. Defarge. He uses these characters to make a contrast, which clearly expresses his view. In short, what he was trying to express is that everyone can love each other and sacrifice for others. So Sydney Carton is the supreme embodiment of Charles Dickens’ humanitarianism.

　　Ultimately, A Tale of Two Cities is essentially a tale of love, sacrifice, and most importantly, resurrection. Through personal sacrifices or sacrifices for those who they loved, it shows the human’s virtue and integrity. By struggling for, hunting for, and sacrificing for a better life, all of the main characters are forever resurrected in the hearts of those they love forever.

　　Overall, Charles Dickens is a humanitarian.

And this is the basic element in a peaceful and harmonious society. Everyone should love people and only the humanitarianism can improve this situation. And A Tale of Two Cities is the best work, which embodies his humanitarianism. So that we can see that Charles Dickens is an outstanding humanitarian of the capitalistic reformism in the 19th century.

双城记英文读后感6

　　I believe that everyone who has seen a tale of two cities will be impressed by the shock. The book by dickens, a famous British writer, is immortal! Classic is classic, no matter how many years later, classics still sending out the bright luster, the ups and downs, whats more, the book story unimaginable a bizarre plot twists and turns, the master is the master, to make you know the story is fictional, but still as the story of the people and things, or moved, or anger, or sadness, or tears, dont you dont admire master ability of fiction.

　　Dickens in a tale of two cities revealed before the outbreak of the French revolution, the nobility of the ruthless oppression, depending on the masses of poor people mean dog, failure, and finally an outbreak of the French revolution, poor people after long-term brutal oppression, crazy revenge for the noble class, the same ruthless trial authority and the judgment of their lives, blood is blood, blinded by hate glasses, blood excited nerve, head to the ground, but vengeance will solve the problem? Can you live a happy life? This is the question dickens raised in his book. If the authorities have more compassion and more love for the people, so that everyone will not be oppressed, or the revolution will not break out, we must know that the working peoples demands on society are very low and low! The revolution should be a warning to those in power. Worth fortunately, in the 20th century, we this s our authorities, whether China, wen jiabao, or Mr Obama in the United States, they are put forward for all to common prosperity, let everyone enjoy the fruit of social and economic development, they think that favor the rich society not only moral, also a serious threat to social stability.

　　Love and tolerance is the good idea, because saw a pair of noble brother destroyed the crimes of a poor family, was framed in the bastille 18 years of doctor, doctor angry in prison, he secretly recorded the persecuted, vowed to heaven and earth, accused of aristocrats and their children and grandchildren, until the last one, in the years of imprisonment, the doctor lost his head, do the shoes has become the only sustenance to sustain life. After his release from prison, his father returned to his senses with his daughters deep love for his father. With great love and tolerance, he agreed to the marriage of his daughter.

　　When with a picture of the ceiling look up court appearance of Mr. Carlton, gives the impression of how unruly and arrogant, although he talented, although he has a heart of precious, but because of the darkness of the society, he chose the debauchery, chose the cynicism, chose the ceremony, Carlton love Lucy how pure and selfless, he chose when Lucy happiness silently blessing, secretly guardian beside her, when Lucy need a bailout, he chose to his own life in exchange for Lucy her husbands life, to ensure the happiness of Lucy, although I do not believe that the world really can have such feelings, but I still deep compassion, pity, Carlton, great respect for his feelings, hope all tender belong to him, to comfort his wounded heart.

　　The children who were persecuted by the aristocrats, the hatred of the heart, the revenge became the knife axe, the symbol of the vengeance, the death of the goddess of vengeance is not a metaphor for the price of revenge?

　　Hatred, tolerance, love! This all let us dee* ponder introspection! Carltons words are supposed to be all the best footnote: this age of sin, and bring forth the previous era of nature of sin to offset by themselves, and gradually disappeared, a beautiful peace loving era will be born!

　　After reading the story, do you still have jingling shoes in your mind? Still in the doctors gloom, sad helplessness and tears of anger? Still in tears for carton? Still sighing for madame Defarge? I think you must be in the doctor family finally happy peace and silent blessing!

双城记英文读后感7

　　I read a tale of two cities, the reason is that there are a lot of net friend recommendation online, they all said it was a very touching book, Ill download on the net with curiosity, finished part feels good, just write this entry.

　　The tale of a tale of two cities is a profound depiction of the turbulent times of the day, and the love of women who have sacrificed their lives for historical realities.

　　It is said on the Internet that the tale of a tale of two cities is a story of two men and a woman, but I feel that the man does not know what the author really means. s DE, in my opinion, a hatred and French aristocrat, Lucy, Charles and Sydneys feelings, is just to show who caused the war, why things. In fact, people have to be tolerant to others, even if the big things can be small and small. I remember one thing that happened to me: once, I accidentally lost my classmates book, and I thought she would pay me for it. I didnt think that when I spoke to her, she not only did not scold me, but also told me that I could not forget the whole thing in the future, so I should form good habits. Well, maybe this is the attitude between people.

　　In this work, I see a lot of different people. Honest good yet suffered persecution horse knight doctor, loyal lowry, appearance indifference, inner passion, dissolute and selfless Sidney, inhuman DEs wife, cruel and wicked fremont brothers el... There is a complex hatred in it, but it creates more hatred, and this complicated act is vividly presented in front of us, and we seem to be back to the era of the irrational. Some people complain that being born in this century is a bad thing, to be born in the past, at least to be a martyr. In fact, this idea is wrong. We should make contribution to modern life in modern times. And have all kinds of people in the world, they all have different personalities, we who dont cry because it is the character of the weird and dont make friends with him, also dont believe that the people around, maybe he is one of them want to harm you.

　　What I like most about a tale of two cities is Sidney, the lawyers assistant. Carlton. His first appearance was different, and when the people in the courtroom looked casually at the ceiling, one of his notes revealed the plot behind the case. Him with a melancholy, in an appearance as a lawyer, he is talented, but is reluctant to hiding behind the somebody else, do others stepping stone of success, he built his own hands and a wall, cut off from fame and wealth. He once said, "I am a desperate coolie. I dont care about anyone in the world, and nobody CARES about me."

　　Yes, we should not aspire to be famous, so we can not learn more knowledge. Maybe you can be a stepping stone to others, and you can learn more knowledge from others. We can see his strengths and weaknesses, learn his strengths, and throw away his weaknesses.

　　A Tale of Two Cities was written by Charles Dickens, who was born in Portsmouth, England in 1812. As the second of eight children, Dickens had to go to work at the age of twelve to support his poor family, and he lived a difficult childhood. This troublesome time scarred him dee* and provided him with substantial material for such stories as Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, and Great Expectations. Though just accepted only little education, Dickens became a famous writer through his struggling self-learning and extremely hard work, and he was the representative writer of realism in the 19th century.

　　Charles Dickens lived in the period of transition between feudalism and capitalism, when the industrial revolution originated in England swept through Europe. As large numbers of workers invaded into urban centers to earn a living, the bourgeois took advantages of the surplus of labor by keeping wages low. The poor thus remained poor, and often lived in a narrow and filthy environment. Dickens’ writing depicted various directions about this society, and provided a keen, sympathetic chronicle of the plight of the urban poor.

　　A Tale of Two Cities mainly about the great atrocities of French aristocrats compelled the poor citizens to resist violently. Doctor Manette spent eighteen years as a prisoner in Bastille because he intended to expose the atrocity after learning that

　　Marquis Evrémonde killed a beautiful farmwife and her younger brother because of his brother’s lust. After Doctor Manette was free again, his daughter Lucie got married with Charles Darnay, Marquis Evrémonde’s nephew, but chose to live in England because he could not accept the cruel injustices of the French social system and the snobbish and cruel values of his uncle. However, Marquis Evrémonde continued his atrocities. After his crazy carriage crushed over a farmer’s little baby as if nothing happen, he was killed at night. A revolutionary storm was brewing. Mr. and Mrs.Defarge were the revolutionaries in the poor Saint Antoine section of Paris. They wanted to kill all French aristocrats, including Charles Darnay. Mr.Defarge used to be Doctor Manette’s servant, so he was kind to Manettes, while his wife’s heart burned with longing for revenge. At last, Charles Darnay was judged to death, But Sydney Carton, a lawyer who loved Lucie dee*, willing to die instead of Darnay, as they had similar appearance.

　　From my personal point of view, the person A Tale of Two Cities described astounded me very much. Some of them were cruel, crazy and reasonless, while some of them were kind, moral and had own mind.

　　Sydney Carton was the person I thought the most. He was a smart attorney, without his help, Mr. Stryver could not solve any cases. But he was lazy, alcoholic, and cared nothing and nobody, he even could not find any interests in his own life, it seems that he lived just for wasting life. But he loved Lucie dee*. Finally, he became a hero, because he sacrificed his life to save Darnay. I didn’t know why the author spent so many words to form such a strange guy at frist, he used his life to love Lucie, after all. But now, I caught it. Perhaps the terrible Carton symbolized the terrible old France, and his change in the end shown that everything could change, including the old France, a new and fine society would replace the violence.

　　Then, Charles Darnay. He was worthy of esteem or respect. He displayed great virtue in his rejection of his uncle, Marquis Evrémonde. Money and power meant nothing to him, if they came from exploitation and oppression. Even though he had to inherit his uncle’s bequest, he left them to the poor and lived in London throught his own effort. When he realized that he must go back to Paris to help Gabelle, one of his servants, and make right the wrong his uncle had done, he acted without hesitation because he knew that was his duty. He even refused Carton’s help after he was judged to death. I thought, Charles Darnay was a shiny diamond in that cruel and violent society, and he was a hope, the hope of equality and peace.

　　Third, Mrs.Defarge. How crazy this woman was. Nobody could stop her steps toward revenge, except the death. Although it said that wherever there is oppression, there is resistance, I didn’t agree with Mrs.Defarge totally. Her resistance was inhumane, insensible and endless. For just as the aristocracy’s oppression had made an oppressor Mrs.Defarge herself, so will her oppression, in turn, make oppressors her victims. In the end of the novel, her death by a bullet from her own gun. It shown the author’s belief that inordinate retaliated lust would destroy one own self.

　　On the whole, A Tale of Two Cities is a successful novel. It shows us oppression and resistance, violence and terror, revolution and vengeance, love and friendship.

　　I am lucky enough to live in the 21st century, when peace and development are pursued all along. Nowadays, there also are many problems and dissensions among this world, but violence does not the best way problems are solved. Violence just creates more problems, something every sensible person knows. What we need are talks and communication. The time A Tale of Two Cities mentions has gone, we should do enough preparation to adapt the coming age.

That some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of parison only. "

　　With the beginning of above words, Dickens told us a love story called "A Tale of Two Cities", which is one of his most important representative works. The novel profoundly exposed the society contradiction before the French Revolution, intensely attacks the aristocratic social class is dissolute and cruel, and sincerely sympathizes with the depressed classes. The novel also described many magnificent scenes like the revolt people attacked Bastille and so on, which displayed peoples great strength.

The plex hatred is hard to solve, the cruel revenge has made more hatreds, loves rebirth in the hell edge, but take the life as the price.

　　Among many different kinds of people in the story, it is Sydney Carton who impressed me most.

　　I can’t describe my feeling at the first sight of him. To tell the truth, he was not eye-catching at that time. When the readers were immersed in the meeting between Lucie and Charles, he only played a little role as a lawyer who had the same face with Charles and extricated him from accusation through this point.

　　Then they went to drink. Without scruple, Carton expressed his dislike to Charles. Yes, they had the same face. But they were different. Carton was a little lawyer, while Charles was a successful man. Carton was quite free and easy, while Charles was graceful and noble. In fact, they were absolutely two distinctive men except for their appearance. Certainly, what Carton cared about was not the wealth or the position, but the love of Lucie. He realized that Lucie loved Charles, so he was barely out of control at that time.

　　Every time I read this part, I could feel his sincerity and broad-minded. By no means would he say a lie. He must tell you what he thinks in the heart. It is Sydney Carton, a true man.

　　After a short time, he can’t resist himself going to see Lucie. But when he stepped into the small forest, he saw Lucie and Charles getting together happily. He didn’t rush towards them, however, he returned without a word. Though he had a period of depression after that, he was clear who Lucie loved was not him. So what he only would do was to bless her.

　　Some days later, he came to meet Lucie again. He still told Lucie about his love, although he knew it was useless. He just wanted her to know it, as he said,"I want you to know that you are my last dream in my life. "

　　Many times, love is a thing about only one person. "I love you."It’s my business, not yours.

　　So when Carton showed his deep love to Lucie, I suddenly felt that this man was so lovely and deserved to beloved.

　　"Remember always there’s a man who could give his life to you, or anyone you love." Carton left with these words. But all of these seemed a sign of misfortune.

　　From then on, I came to understand how profound his love was. No doubt that it is the most moving love words in the world. Although you don’t love me, I am still there for you or your beloved though thick and thin.

　　But I knew in this story, Carton was bound to a tragic role. So when I saw he only left a view of his back in her wedding, there was a plex mood appearing slowly in my heart.

　　Some years passed. When Lucie appeared in the front of Carton, she became a mother. This time, Lucie’s face was filled with anxiety. Because Charles was in prison and would be killed soon. What lead to this was the plicated and filthy past.

　　From the point, the dirty of society was reflected. It was the sorrow in that period. But they must pay for this sorrow. So it was the time that Carton achieved his permission. "I told you once, for you I would do anything. I will. " He said.

　　At the last moment, he and Charles exchanged. That they had the same face helped them at the second time. When Lucie and her family left without knowing the truth, Carton, instead of Charles, went to be killed.

　　How can we evaluate his action? We can’t say anything about it because all what he did was out of love.

　　As he said to the young girl who panied him before died, "If we have no fear, we can be calm all the way." He was so calm to greet what would be ing soon, for she would get her happiness and he loved her forever.

　　"It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known." With her face rising before his eyes, he went to execution ground calmly.It is "A Tale of Two Cities", also a tale of Sydney Carton.

狄更斯双城记英文读后感2

　　The tale of two cities is a historical story, one of Dickens’ long fictions.The background to the novel is the revolution of France .It portrayed a brutal and bloody story , but it also contained love and friendship.

　　In the novel, Dickens sarcastically described a typical cruel nobleman—marquis of Evermonde . When he was young he and his brother stole a countrywoman by force and killed her family .What’s worse , he used his power to imprison Dr Manette , a kind and honest man who knew all the things they had done and wanted to disclose their crimes . In order to hide their crimes. Marquis of Evermonde and his brother threw Doctor Manette into prison for 18 years . During these 18 years,Doctor Manette lost his freedom and suffer a great in spirit .

　　I felt unthinkable that Marquis of Evermonde and his brother killed people just as easily as they killed chickens. They deprived other people’s freedom as they liked and they thought it was normal and unremarkable. They had never realized that they had done something wrong or something improper. Because their nature was cruel and evil, like demons. There is an old saying which means: People who commit too many crimes will kill themselves. After all, there is justice in the world. The demons can’t be rampant forever. Because the world will not forgive them. They will pay their lives for their crimes. Let’s see the consequence of the Marquis,’’He lay there like a stone with a knife pushed into his heart.” I think it was just what he ought to gain and it is a real exciting scene.

　　The Marquis’ death was just the beginning of people’s resistance to the nobleman. Gradually more and more people joined in the revolution. One after another nobleman were sentenced to death and their heads were cut down . However, some innocent people were implicated in the revolution. Charles Darney was one of them He was the nephew of Marquis of Evermonde. To the opposite of his uncle, Darney was a kind and independent young man.

　　Dickens spoke highly of kindnemercy and love in the novel too. This is the other thone of the novel when Doctor Manette was released from prison. It was his daughter Lucie who took care of him and helped him return to normal. During this time, Dr manette and Lucie knew Charles Darney and Sydeny Carton, the two young man fell in love with Lucie at the same time . At last, Lucie married Chares Darney .Dr Manette accepted Darney as his son-in-law although he knew that Darney was the nephew of the man who threw him into prison for18 years. This is the love between father and daughter. And Sydeny Carton , the very great man ,loved Lucie dee*. He promised Lucie that he would do everything for her happiness. He did it truely ,he sacrificed himself instead of Darney who looked the same as him. This is love for lovers . This is the most wonderful thing in the world. It also reminds us that no matter how no matter when there is true love existing. At the end , Lucie, Dr Manette and Darney arrived in England safely.

　　The tale of two cities is different from other historical fictions. Its characters and main plots are fictional under the real background of the revolution of France. The author made the experience of the fictional charactor Dr Manette as the main clue.The plots are complicated, and they are flexuous and dramatic. The structure is complete and rigorous.

　　Dickens had dear love and hate. He praised those who ought to be praised and attacked those who ought to be attacked. The motivation of the novel maybe just warn the English dominators. But I think we can learn something meaningful from the tale of two cities.

狄更斯双城记英文读后感3

　　Oliver Twist, one of the most famous works of Charles Dickens’, is a novel reflecting the tragic fact of the life in Britain in 18th century.

　　The author who himself was born in a poor family wrote this novel in his twenties with a view to reveal the ugly masks of those cruel criminals and to expose the horror and violence hidden underneath the narrow and dirty streets in London.

　　The hero of this novel was Oliver Twist, an orphan, who was thrown into a world full of poverty and crime. He suffered enormous pain, such as hunger, thirst, beating and abuse. While reading the tragic experiences of the little Oliver, I was shocked by his sufferings. I felt for the poor boy, but at the same time I detested the evil Fagin and the brutal Bill. To my relief, as was written in all the best stories, the goodness eventually conquered devil and Oliver lived a happy life in the end. One of the plots that attracted me most is that after the theft, little Oliver was allowed to recover in the kind care of Mrs. Maylie and Rose and began a new life. He went for walks with them, or Rose read to him, and he worked hard at his lessons. He felt as if he had left behind forever the world of crime and hardship and poverty.

　　How can such a little boy who had already suffered oppressive affliction remain pure in body and mind? The reason is the nature of goodness. I think it is the most important information implied in the novel by Dickens-he believed that goodness could conquer every difficulty. Although I don’t think goodness is omnipotent, yet I do believe that those who are kind-hearted live more happily than those who are evil-minded.

　　For me, the nature of goodness is one of the most necessary character for a person. Goodness is to humans what water is to fish. He who is without goodness is an utterly worthless person. On the contrary, as the famous saying goes, ‘The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose’, he who is with goodness undoubtedly is a happy and useful person. People receiving his help are grateful to him and he also gets gratified from what he has done, and thus he can do good to both the people he has helped and himself.

　　To my disappointment, nowadays some people seem to doubt the existence of the goodness in humanity. They look down on people’s honesty and kindness, thinking it foolish of people to be warm-hearted. As a result, they show no sympathy to those who are in trouble and seldom offer to help others. On the other hand, they attach importance to money and benefit. In their opinion, money is the only real object while emotions and morality are nihility. If they cannot get profit from showing their ‘kindness’, they draw back when others are faced with trouble and even hit a man when he is down. They are one of the sorts that I really detest.

——《双城记》读后感10篇

《双城记》读后感1

　　今天，我终于读完了英国作家狄更斯的著作《双城记》。读完这本书，我的心情久久不能*静。

　　小说以18世纪的法国大革命为背景，故事中将巴黎、伦敦两个大城市连结起来，叙述马内特医生一家充满了爱与冒险的遭遇，中间穿插了贵族的残暴、人民的愤怒、审判间谍……主要揭示了那个时期英法的社会治安，以及大官贵族，下至*民百姓的生活。

　　这部著作主要讲述了：可怜的马内特医生在被贵族以“莫须有”的罪名关在巴士底狱十九年后，他的女儿将他接到了英国居住。在法庭上父女认识了法国贵族达雷和潦倒师父卡顿。后来，马内特的女儿露西和达雷结了婚，过了十年的幸福家庭生活，卡顿也给了露西一个承诺，要让露西生活快乐。

　　人民生活在困苦无助、饥寒交迫、贫病连连、受尽欺压的困境中，他们心中积压了对贵族的刻骨深仇，终于引发了推翻*、争取自由的法国大革命。法国大革命爆发后，达雷为了营救无辜的仆人，赶到法国去给他辩护，却因他曾是法国贵族而被拘捕了。而卡顿为了实践要让露西生活快乐的承诺，利用他跟达雷相貌相似，在达雷被处刑前，用自己跟达雷掉包，代替他上了断头台。

　　黑暗的年代已经过去了，充满希望与光明的年代已经到来，那时的黑暗令人惨不忍睹!起先，天下是属于国王的，后来，天下是属于人民的。17*7月13日，人民攻占了关押政治犯的巴士底狱;1793年1月21日，革命把国王路易十六送上了断头台，这象征着封建统治的结束;1793年2月20日，成立法兰西第一共和国。

　　充满黑暗和压迫的18世纪已经一去不复返了，百姓受苦受难的悲惨生活已经彻底结束。我们迎来了被希望沐浴下的21世纪，从那个时代到今天的漫长岁月不过像昨天到今天那样短暂。我认为卡顿的精神是值得我们学习的，他重情义，信守诺言，为了实现他对露西的诺言，不惜一切代价，包括宝贵的生命。

　　当今的人民绝对不会让历史重演，历史也不会重演。让我们过好每一天，让属于我们的21世纪更加充满光彩!

《双城记》读后感2

　　那是最完美的时代，那是最糟糕的时代;那是智慧的年头，那是愚昧的年头;那是信仰的时期，那是怀疑的时期;那是光明的季节，那是黑暗的季节;那是期望的春天，那是失望的冬天;我们全都在直奔天堂，我们全都在直奔相反的方向--简而言之，那时跟此刻十分相象，某些最喧嚣的权威坚持要用形容词的最高级来形容它。说它好，是最高级的;说它不好，也是最高级的。

　　这是整本书的开头第一章，将全书的基调定上了杯具色彩，然而就在这矛盾的时代中，也确实存在过光明。

　　这本书叙述了法国大革命时期围绕在医生马奈特一家周围的事，这本书颠覆了我对自由，权利以及善恶的看法——法国人民不堪重负，推翻了波旁王朝，然而新*建立之后朝他们走来的难道是他们心驰神往的自由吗?不，仍然是以往的提心吊胆，稍不留神明天就会被送上断头台。得势之后的德发日太太滥用职权，将死敌们个个置于死地，最后却落得个惨死的下场。正如那句话所说的：“自由啊，有多少罪恶是假借你的名义干出来的。”大革命并不如想象中的那么完美，而是以暴易暴。它没有拯救人民，而是将人民推入了另一个火坑。

　　再来看看另外一位大革命的牺牲品——达内，革命前，他放下了国内的家业，只身来到英国谋生，在他看来，压迫人民是一件极不人道的事，然而，革命爆发后，他反而无辜地成为人民的敌人，大家不分青红皂白地要将他领上断头台。但是坚信在九死一生之后，他依然是原先那个善良的达内。

　　而卡顿——一个才华横溢却自甘堕落的律师，他与达内有着相同的长相，却有着不一样的命运，在应对活着还是让自己心爱的人得到幸福的抉择时，毅然决然的选取了后者，在他看来，生命在爱的面前是微不足道的，即使在断头台上，他也表现出了令人难以想象的沉着冷静。正因在他的心底，一向有一个信念在支持他：“耶稣说，复活在我，生命也在我，信我的人，虽然死了，也必复活。凡活着信我的人，必永远不死。”他用死完成了自我救赎，他用死来反抗虚伪的革命者，他用死来诠释对露丝的爱。生命，成了他最后的武器，爱，成了他唯一的支柱。

《双城记》读后感3

　　故事是这样的，埃瑞弗蒙德侯爵蹂躏农家妇女，她的哥哥知道了，于是跟侯爵干了一仗，以失败告终。而且他还受了重伤。可能侯爵也不想把事搞大了，不想弄出人命吧。就请了一个医生，这就是另外一个重要的人物马奈特医生。而这可怜的马奈特医生也由于知道了内情而被侯爵送进了巴士底监狱。十八年后终于重见天日……

　　故事里我看到了很多很多不同的人。正直善良的马奈特医生，美丽温柔的露西，优雅高尚的查尔斯，忠厚老实的洛瑞，外表冷漠、内心热情，放荡不羁而又无私崇高的西德尼，扭曲了人性的德发日太太，豪爽忠诚的普洛斯小姐，残忍阴险的埃佛瑞蒙兄弟……

　　而这个查尔斯来头不小,是埃斯瑞弗蒙德侯爵的侄子,但是他不接受爵位,离开法国到英国去。他在伦敦靠自己当上了法文老师。

　　还有一个人叫西德尼·卡顿,他从一开始的法庭上若无其事地望着天花板但他的一张纸条就揭穿了原告的阴谋。他很容易给人一种邋遢、消沉、贪杯的印象，但他在危急时刻，通过一个狱卒来到查尔斯的监狱里与查尔斯换了衣服。后果可想而知，查尔斯被送出了法国，而卡顿却被送上了断头台，他在死前说了一句话：我现在做的是我一生中做过的最好、最最好的事情;我即将得到的，是我一生中过的最宁静、最最宁静的休息。

　　在革命成功后，革命者们大多都失去了理智，滥杀无辜的人，而查尔斯为了解救以前的仆人，挺而走险，来到法国，结果却被革命者以逃亡贵族的身份给关了起来，露西及她父亲马奈特医生连忙赶到法国，由于他在巴士底狱给关了十八年，被人们称做英雄，从而有特权把他的女婿—查尔斯提供了很好的条件。但是德发日太太就是那对兄妹中的妹妹，她一直都恨着埃瑞弗蒙德侯爵家的人。查尔斯又是埃瑞弗蒙德侯爵的侄子，所以她想尽办法得想要害查尔斯。但到头来却死在自己的枪口中。

　　这部小说虽然后来是以“大团圆”结束，但是当我读到卡顿为了露西而代替查尔斯上刑场时，我的心里充满了辛酸。

《双城记》读后感4

　　小说《双城记》被誉为描写法国大革命的最杰出的代表作，我想最大的原因可能是因为它的与众不同。和其他的作品，比如卡莱尔的《法国大革命》不同，狄更斯更注重的是底层人民的喜怒哀乐。尽管在那个时代，这些小人物本身并不能引起世界的关注。但是作者敏锐的捕捉到这些小人物和大革命有着千丝万缕的联系，可以说法国大革命本身就是有小人物们的力量所引发的。

　　在这部作品里，我看到了很多很多不同的人。正直善良却惨遭迫害的马奈特医生，美丽温柔的露西，优雅高尚的查尔斯，忠厚老实的洛瑞，外表冷漠、内心热情，放荡不羁而又无私崇高的西德尼，扭曲了人性的德发奇太太，豪爽忠诚的普洛士小姐，残忍阴险的埃佛瑞蒙兄弟……复杂的仇恨纠缠不清，残忍的复仇制造了更多仇恨，爱在地狱的边缘再生，却是以生命为代价。这错综复杂的一幕幕，活生生的展现在面前，仿佛重现了那个失去理智的时代。

　　有人说，小说《双城记》是描写了两个男人和一个女人的故事，我却觉得，这样说的人必定没有了解作者真正想表达的意图。如果只是表达了这个，任何一部作品都可以达到露西和查尔斯的水准，那么小说《双城记》的`优势怎么体现出来呢？在我看来，德发奇一家和法国贵族的仇恨也好，露西、查尔斯和西德尼的感情问题也好，都是为了体现一个共同的主题而设的。这个主题就是剖析这场大革命与民众之间的关系，看到底是什么引发了这场革命，到底这场血雨腥风给人们带来了什么。

　　我想这才是作者想要表达的重心所在。

《双城记》读后感5

　　“那是最美好的时代，那是最糟糕的时代；那是智慧的年头，那是愚昧的年头；那是信仰的时期，那是怀疑的时期；那是光明的季节，那是黑暗的季节；那是希望的春天，那是失望的冬天；我们全都在直奔天堂，我们全都在直奔相反的方向——简而言之，那时跟现在非常相象，某些最喧嚣的权威坚持要用形容词的最高级来形容它。说它好，是最高级的；说它不好，也是最高级的。”这是狄更斯《双城记》的经典开头，也是一曲时代节奏的起始音符，更是一幅恢弘的历史画卷最初的那一笔最重的色彩。

　　在贵族眼里，那是最好的时代；而对于*民而言，那却是最坏的时代。彼时，贵族，可以因其出身而拥有众多特权，可以为了随心所欲的享乐方式去剥夺*民的权利；*民，不得不忍受贵族的欺凌、压迫，似乎命中注定他们应该接受上天施加的饥饿，不幸与贫穷。

　　小说前半部分，狄更斯用大量的笔墨控诉着那些自以为高高在上的贵族，他们的马车可以在碾死*民小孩以后，仅仅是“侯爵老爷向他们众人看了一眼，好像他们仅仅是一些从地下钻出来的老鼠。”看到这一段时，我抱着和*民一样的态度，无比憎恨那些人，期盼着有朝一日那些人能跌落云端，受到应有的惩罚。

　　所幸，好与坏在某种特定的环境背景下是可以发生转换的。

　　当贵族不断运用特权给*民施压；当尽管*民在贵族的脚下小心翼翼的前行，却依旧难逃贵族的残暴迫害；当受迫害的人越来越多，大家复仇的想法也就越演越烈。一个*民难以反抗，但他们发现身边的每个人都有着相同的困苦境遇时，便如同拥抱归属感般团结起来，为自己丧失已久的自由奋起斗争。这时，最好的时代和最坏的时代便倒转过来了——*民终于可以复仇了，而贵族，却要因此面临祸患。

　　复仇成功，*民们展开报复，将那些混蛋们都送上了法庭接受审判，也公布了一系列新的法律条文，这个国家，成为了“自由、*等、博爱，否则不如死的统一不可分割的共和国”。可就是在这样的国家，法庭上，审判的标准竟然是人民的情绪，可以因流泪同情无罪释放，也可以是群情激愤极刑处死。这个国家，依旧每天有许多无辜的人遭迫害惨死，依旧被压抑恐怖的气氛笼罩。

　　胜利者，狂热、激动、麻木、粗暴；

　　失败者，颓丧、惶恐、害怕、狼狈。

　　不过是翻转了金字塔，最后仍是少数人，实行着同样恐怖的统治和压迫。正如叶芝的诗《伟大的日子》里的几句诗：“革命万岁！更多更多的炮声！一个骑马的乞丐鞭打步行的乞丐，革命万岁！更多更多的炮声！乞丐们换了位置，但鞭打依旧。”

　　在《乌合之众》中有着这样的观点：“当一场目的在于过去一切制度的大革命进行过后，人们惊讶地发现，这样大革命的结果就是毁灭一套集权制，继而建立了一套新的集权制，甚至使它进一步强化，更具压迫性。”我们在这跌宕起伏的情节中能清楚地看到*民与贵族的权利置换过程，看到不断强化的压迫性。群众对于正确与否没有判知，一味地随波逐流，导致了血染法场。情节不断重演，这难道不就是一种新的压迫吗？而这压迫不是更凶残吗？纵然贵族对*民实施的暴行无法抹去，同样地，鲜血对于失去亲人的伤痛也无法忘却，可通过杀戮实现报复，难道就能获得内心的*静吗？逝者已逝，而在集体的狂热中，鲜血俨然成了祭奠死者的唯一祭品。

　　集体狂热的时代，又何尝不是集体哀嚎的时代？

　　*历史教科书中对这场轰轰烈烈的法国大革命给予高度赞扬与肯定，而狄更斯，则给予了最猛烈的嘲讽和否定。他认为，法国大革命中对人性的抹杀，对生命的摧残和漠视，只不过是一种*替代另外一种*而已，不但不值得推崇，最终也会被消灭殆尽。在他的心中，对生命的尊重，对人性光辉的景仰，才是人类社会永恒的主题和善美，亘古不变。

　　这场大革命里，还有着毫不起眼的小人物，西蒙尼替代查尔斯，从容赴死。他高贵的头颅落下的那一刻，爱情的光辉与人性的光辉交相呼应，刺破大革命疯狂而黑暗的幕布，如同落日余晖般绚丽夺目。或许，黑暗的时刻，最终会在这样的光辉中，慢慢消散。

　　信仰与怀疑、光明与黑暗、希望与绝望并存，好与坏也在不同的人、不同的群体之间转换。就像现在，我们所生活的世界没有想象的那么美好，但也没有那么糟糕，仍然值得我们为之努力奋斗。

　　毕竟，爱总是要比恨有力的多。

《双城记》读后感6

　　《双城记》是英国十九世纪著名现实主义作家狄更斯的作品，被称其迟暮之年的巅峰之作。

　　法国大革命期间，青年医生马奈特偶然目睹了封建贵族埃弗瑞蒙德兄弟草人命的暴行，因为打抱不*，反被投入巴士底狱，监禁了十八年。出狱后，马奈特之女露茜与仇家儿子达奈相爱。于是，在法国革命的旋涡中，一幕幕家庭的恩怨情仇上演。达奈主动放弃贵族一切，独自到英国做法语教师自食其力，马奈特心怀宽厚，不计前嫌，同意了他们的婚事。婚后的几年生活得比较*静，可是一封来自法国巴黎的信却打破了*静。那是原来的仆人写的，诉说了自己的不幸。而达奈为去营救仆人，身陷巴黎，被不公正地投入监狱。此刻，马奈特和女儿以及老朋友台鲁森银行老业务员劳瑞先生也赶到。所有人都为营救达奈而奔波着，然而“雅克”的代表人德日发夫妇以及复仇女却丧失理智，挥动着复仇的旗帜，一心将达奈置于死地。就在千钧一发之际，露茜的昔日暗恋者卡屯出现了，他们策划了整个营救计划，因为相貌相似，他甘愿替达奈一死，并且识破了德日发太太想斩草除根的想法。及早让他们撤离，逃过一劫。

　　故事背景进行了大面积的渲染，让人感受到当时英国和法国不同的社会氛围，尤其是阴森恐怖的法国新*的描写。法国在推翻了封建贵族等级制度后，很快就陷入了复仇的狂热，极端分子无理由地杀害无辜*民，那私设的法庭上毫无公正可言，一批批的*民走上断头台。而只是那些极为可笑的罪名。在杀戳结束后，人们又开始狂欢，人们毫无是否判断能力，以法庭的裁定作为他们自己的标准。多么恐怖啊!难道这真得是法国大革命吗?

《双城记》读后感7

　　《双城记》是狄更斯最重要的代表作之一，由狄更斯发表的作品，是他迟暮之年的巅峰之作。

　　我同我的孩子们和朋友们演出威尔基·柯林斯先生的戏剧《冰海深处》的时候，第一次构思了这部小说的主要想法。那时候，我产生了一种强烈的愿望，想亲自把这种想法体现出来;于是我驰骋想象，刻意精心而且兴趣盎然的追踪一个敏锐细致的旁观者非表现出来不可的那种心情感受。

　　我对这个想法越来越熟悉，同时它也就随之逐渐形成了目前这种形式。在整个写作过程中，我的心神意志完全为它所控制而贯注其中;迄今，我已经证实无误，这些卷页中的所作所为和所遭所受，宛如确实都是我自己亲身的所作所为和所遭所受的一样。

　　无论何时在书中提及(即令是仅仅略为涉及)法国人在革命以前或革命期间的情况，都是在对最可信赖的目击者确信无疑的情况下如实引述的。我的希望之一始终都是想多少增添一点点大家欢迎而且生动的方式，用来了解那个惊心动魄的时代，固然，要想给卡莱尔先生的那本令人惊叹之作所包含的哲理，增添任何一点点东西，则是谁也不能奢望的。

　　总结：《双城记》这部历史小说的创作动机在于借古讽今，以法国大革命的历史经验为借鉴，给英国统治阶级敲响警钟。

《双城记》读后感8

　　很早前就想看《双城记》，可能是因为老师多次提到它吧。

　　那个时代的法国折射太多的东西。最让我印象深刻的是群众运动的无理性。其实任何的运动可能都是感性占上风，无论是多么理性的人也会被运动中的口号而感染。有多少人能够抵抗运动中令人澎湃的旋律呢？在人们甚至还不太明白到底发生了什么的时候，很多人就已经被卷入了运动中。

　　法国大革命中，民众的反抗并非是无中生有。只是因为他们被奴役得太久、太深了。上层阶级甚至不把他们当*来进行对待，民众的生命对他们来说就和动物没有什么区别。有谁能够甘心被这样欺诈呢？当有反抗运动的时候，有哪位*民不想参与其中呢？

　　但是革命总是流血，总是有牺牲，也总是有一些好人因为革命而遭到迫害。就像达雷一样。而且当人们陷入革命的浪潮之后，似乎很难抽身。而且在革命之后，建立的社会不一定和原先的有很大的差别。这让我想起*古代王朝更替的周期律。一个专制王朝被推翻，建立的又是一个专制王朝。就如张养浩在《山坡羊·潼关怀古》中，提到“兴百姓苦亡百姓苦”。也许人们只能够寄托于一个英明的君主。

　　狄更斯以法国大革命为背景，将巴黎、伦敦两大城市连接起来。小说围绕着曼马内特医生一家和以德发日夫妇为首的圣安东尼区展开，描写了贵族如何败坏、如何残害百姓，以及人民心中积压对贵族的刻骨仇恨，最终导致了不可避免的法国大革命。

　　小说既有波澜壮阔的历史，也有感人肺腑的故事。作者在书中使用了大量的对比，尤其是开篇就使用最高级进行排比对比，仿佛再现了作者所描绘的场景，昌盛又衰微；笃诚又多疑；光明又黑暗；希望又伴随着失望；感觉无所不有，又好似一无所有，给读者强烈的震撼。

　　其实不仅是小说的情结扑朔迷离，我自己在读这本书的时候也是一种扑朔迷离的状态，读了，好像什么也没读。

　　虽然对于这本书只是一知半解，但我也太会重读的。从古至今，留给我们的经典有太多了，你想要全都读懂是很难的，品尝经典是需要时间和精力的，除非自己的工作需要对其研究。

　　相信很多人和我一样，读这本书是被开篇所吸引，后来又被其字里行间所展现的人道情怀所征服。如西德尼卡顿所言——为了你，为了你所爱的任何人，我愿意做任何事情。倘若我的生命中有值得牺牲的可能和机会，我甘愿为你和你所爱的人而牺牲。看到这些话，我相信没有人会不为所动吧。

　　其次就是曼内特，他深爱着自己的女儿，在经历残酷的磨难后愿为女儿放下心中的仇恨，把女儿嫁给仇人的儿子，这不禁让人感叹爱的伟大！

　　小说是这样结尾的：我现在正在做一件大好事情，远远胜过我一向所作所为。我现在去的是一处大好归宿，远远胜过我一向所知所解。既然决定了要做，那么就整装待发，积极面对。

　　当然我们在阅读时，应取其精华，去其糟粕。虽是大师所做，但毕竟时代在变，我们应用当下的眼光进行批评阅读。

《双城记》读后感10

　　“这是最好的时代，也是最坏的时代。”《双城记》开篇第一句话被无数次引用。但我猜知道这句话的人并一定小说《双城记》讲述了一个怎么样的故事，也不知道这句话为何而说。如果想理解这句话的原意，以及为何说写出这句经典名句，那自然是要读读原著的。

　　“---简而言之，那个时代和当今这个时代是如此相似。”这句话其实解释了上述经典句子的两个问题：为何这么说，对谁而说。这也就是小说出世的原因之一，狄更斯希望通过这样一本小说，通过描述法国大革命给人民大众带来灾难来表示自己的担心，同时告诫英国的危险处境。一段革命史，两座分别代表两个国家的城市，几个风雨飘摇中的人，构成了小说的主要素。

　　虽然《双城记》是一本经典的小说，但因为其明确提出这段革命背景是法国大革命，于是对革命的表现就被认为是作者的历史观。而这正是对小说无数争议的焦点。狄更斯在小说中除了以细腻的笔墨展示了贵族的残忍，同样也展示了革命群众非理性的破坏。他认为，革命是一种压迫取代了另一种压迫，一场直接浓重的血腥暴动替代了另外一场血腥。对攻占巴士底狱以及对暴动民众的一系列描写——血腥，残忍，狡诈，恶毒是小说最为引人注目的地方。

　　狄更斯把在描写暴民邪恶之处倾心了大量的笔墨，展示了他对暴民的痛恨，从某种层度上可以说是对革命的痛恨。当然，作为人道主义者的狄更斯也指出了拯救世界的良药：爱。这种爱，体现在小说中的包括亲情，爱情，友情这种私人间的感情，也包括抛弃贵族，拯救苍生的那种博爱。其中，最为出彩的是对卡顿之爱的描写。

　　我非常喜欢卡顿。实际上，卡顿就是狄更斯的化身，狄更斯正是首先想到了卡顿这个人和他身上的某种精神进而构思成这本小说的。那么，卡顿是怎么样一个人呢?小说中描述：“太阳悲悲切切，切切悲悲的冉冉升起，它所照见的景物，没有比这个人更惨的了。他富有才华，情感高尚，却没有施展才华流露情感的机会，不能有所作为，也无力谋取自己的幸福。他深知自己的症结所在，却听天由命，任凭自己年复一年的虚度光阴，消耗殆尽。”

　　这是个自甘堕落湮没了自己的才华和青春的年轻人，为何自甘堕落?小说中似乎并没有交代，自从他一出场就是如此，并且也没有对他的家事背景描写也并不多。个人认为，这个人代表狄更斯自己，因此他无需过多描述——卡顿的堕落，源于自己对日渐堕落的社会的失望。他走上断头台前曾说过，“我看到这个时代的邪恶，和造成这一恶果的前一时代的邪恶，逐渐为自己赎了罪而消亡。”

　　被自己遗弃的悲观者——卡顿，在朋友遇到困难，在所钟爱的女子的丈夫即将被送上断头台时，他突然出现，被救人还不之所以的情况下，以自己的生命做代价，在紧要关头使了个掉包计策救出了自己的所爱女子的丈夫。

　　这不正是基督之爱么，为自己赎了罪而消亡。事实上，小说中的卡顿也确实以圣经的口吻在临死前说，“复活在我，生命在我，信我的人，虽然死了，也必复活;凡活着信我的人，必永远不死。”这就是狄更斯为“最坏的时代”开出的良药，然而这毕竟是一种理想。有人说，《双城记》作为一部不朽的著作，如果没有西德尼。卡顿的存在和所作所为，这部小说就失去了它的价值和光辉。我完全赞同。

狄更斯双城记读后感1

　　前些日子借了一本超厚的世界名著《双城记》，看了几章后，我决定还了它，实在没意思，而且又看不懂，今天我借了它的减肥版，总算看完它了。书中人物其实很多，但人物的各种关系又是那么的令我意想不到，主人公是一个曾在巴士底狱当了18年的囚徒马内特医生，她的女儿露茜，他的女婿查尔斯…

　　英国和法国就是所谓的双城，小说的背景也就是法国大革命，我是学历史的，关于法国大革命我是清楚的，联系到小说中，我真想问一下，是真的吗?小说嘛，多半是虚构的，看完之后，给我的印象是：狠毒的得法热夫人，无辜的查尔斯，好得无话可说的西得尼`卡登先生，忠心的女仆人小姐，热心肠的贾维斯.劳里先生。

　　我对好人总有一种好感，对坏人总有一种厌恶感，不奇怪啊，每一个人都这样，除非他是超级好人，对坏人存有仁慈的心，或者他是超级大坏蛋，对好人总有一种感觉，“他们好虚伪啊!”其实这也不奇怪的，事实就是如此嘛!一群虚伪的家伙。得法热夫妇去找露茜，原以为要帮她的丈夫查尔斯，其实是害了她的丈夫再次入狱，并且最终导致卡登先生的死.我本人觉得卡登先生很讲义气，重感情，他第一次见露茜就爱上她，即使表白遭到拒绝，但对她的爱仍不改变，最后为了露茜能和她丈夫团聚，为了露茜不再伤心流泪，他去监狱和查尔斯调包了，用自己的命换了露茜的幸福，不能不说他是令我最受感动的一个人物。

狄更斯双城记读后感4

　　《双城记》是英国作家查尔斯·狄更斯以法国大革命为背景写的一篇小说，它是发生在巴黎和伦敦两个城市之间的故事，所以叫双城记，下面介绍主要人物及关系：

　　马柰特大夫：故事主人公马奈特大夫初次登场，即已是一具白发苍苍，形容枯槁的活尸，一台只会埋头做鞋的机器，完全丧失了理智和感情。他给人从狱中搭救出来，“死”而复生，逃离曾经那样亏待他的法国。五年之后，已经在伦敦僻静的"街角安居乐业，往时遭受迫害的阴影仍频频进逼，骚扰他的梦境。

　　露茜·马奈特：马奈特医生的女儿，娇小轻盈的漂亮身材，一头丰厚的金发，一双和银行的劳瑞先生的目光相遇时带着询问神情的蓝眼睛，一个具有幼嫩光滑的奇特功能的前额。后和夏尔·达柰结婚。

　　夏尔·达柰：发育良好，模样端庄，面庞饱受日晒，是一副年轻上等人的派头，他的叔叔埃弗瑞蒙德侯爵曾凭御赐空白捕票断送了马奈特大夫的前半生。

　　德发日夫妇：巴黎圣安东区一家酒铺的老板，曾是马奈特医生的旧仆。他的酒铺是革命团体秘密联络的据点，但是对太太欲将马奈特大夫一家斩尽杀绝的密谋，他并未染指。

　　西德尼卡顿：利用貌似达奈的条件，李代桃僵，打破了德发日太太的疯狂的复仇计划。

　　为了深爱的露茜，代替她的丈夫上了断头台。

狄更斯双城记读后感5

　　小说的开头便是名句：这是最好的时代，这是最坏的时代。相信这句话大部分都不陌生，但这句话之后是什么，大部分又都不知道。为了将这句话发挥到淋漓尽致，自然免不了一长段的排比，才能形成恢弘的气势，让整本书提升到家国的格调。

　　这段话两种不同的翻译方法，将它对比着看，或许对选择哪个译本有参考价值，于笔者更倾向于第一种，的质朴厚实比文言文更能打动普通人的内心，引发共鸣。

　　第一种翻译：这是最好的时代，这是最坏的时代；这是智慧的年代，这是愚蠢的年代；这是信仰的时期，这是怀疑的时期；这是光明的季节，这是黑暗的季节；这是希望之春，这是绝望之冬；我们的前途拥有一切，我们的前途一无所有；我们正走向天堂，我们也正直下地狱。

　　第二种翻译：时之圣者也，时之凶者也，此亦蒙昧世，此亦智慧世，此亦光明时节，此亦黯淡时节，此亦笃信之年，此亦大惑之年，此亦多丽之阳春，此亦绝念之穷冬，人或万物具备，人或一事无成，我辈其青云直上，我辈其黄泉永坠。

　　开头这一段，便让人联想到一体两面，一个硬币必然有两个面，人具有双重性，光明和黑暗可以共存在一个肉体中。而文章便是从两个不同的国家的对比、同一个人在不同情境下的不同行为的对比，对开头这一段进行点题。

　　整本小说充满了古典小说特有的巧合桥段，虽然剧情冲突不断，但层出不穷的各种巧合让小说中人物精简到最少人数，因而十分适合改编为舞台剧，同时故事结构形成闭环，故事情节形成闭环，故事人员也形成闭环，戏剧张力和冲突点存在感明显。

　　双城指的是英国的伦敦和法国的巴黎，故事的历史背景是法国大革命，于是两个不同的城市形成了对比，英国的伦敦还留有对现有秩序的维护、对私有财产的保护，而法国的巴黎在认清贵族阶级中部分无道、横征暴敛、残酷无度的丑恶后，市民革命后各种势力你方唱罢我登场，反而造成整个社会的动荡不安。

　　出场的人物不多，但每个人有几重身份，而且身份夹杂，不能简单通过身份判定好恶。医生曾在巴黎因揭发贵族*暴行而被冤下狱，在银行家及旅店夫妇的帮助下好不容易逃亡伦敦，和女儿过几年清净日子。女婿本是贵族家后裔，因看不惯家族暴行而自决于家族，单枪匹马、身无长物、只身闯伦敦，最后抱得美人归，赢取医生女儿。

　　大革命开始后，为了帮助曾经的仆役，女婿重返前途未卜的巴黎，结果直接被下监狱判处死刑，送他上断头台的竟然是当初营救医生的旅店夫妇。医生和女儿为救女婿被迫重返伤心地，医生利用自己曾经的经历得到同情，银行家也在其中多方活动，最后在爱慕者的帮助下李代桃僵，终于一家三口安全的逃离乱世巴黎返回伦敦。

　　单单看书中的人物，个性并不典型且鲜活，戏剧化成分中，标签明显。最有意思的莫过于爱慕者的角度，从他最开始的玩世不恭、到对爱情执着追求、到为心上人全力付出、到最后*和赴死。这个人物身上有较多的情感变化，反而能打动读者。同时从死去后爱慕者的角度重新看待书中的各个角色，感受到一种安详客观，坦然接受所有人所有事，接受世界的不美好，欣慰于不美好之下依然存在的美好。

　　同时书本中还能看到部分贵族的无德、革命运动从激烈到时空，雅各宾当权派从懵懂无章法到全面失控崩溃，历史总是惊人的相似和重复，太阳底下无新事。被压迫的大多数终于爆发后，会进入一种失去秩序到无序的状态，被其中激进的小部分人莫名其妙的裹挟着，走入暴力血腥残忍的快车道，沉默的大多数无法得到期待中的*静生活。想想乌合之众、想想白色恐怖、甚至想想现在的网络暴力搜索，或多或少能看出类似的影子。

　　只希望能有类似爱慕者的存在，在公共舆论危机中，能有效的将矛盾斗争降温，用一种相对温和泰然的态度化戾气为祥和。当然，如果爱慕者不需要付出生命的代价，该是更好了。

双城记读后感优秀1

　　《双城记》文中人性的思想最令我受触动，比如说狄更斯写的查尔斯吧，他为了他那“神圣的目标”而放弃了地位与财产，这与《复活》中的夏赫留朵夫没什么两样，都一样崇高；为了救人他进入明知有着异常危险的牢狱，他这种“明知山有虎，偏向虎山行”的崇高精神值得我们学习，不畏艰苦，不屈服恶势力，为了真理，竟不顾生命危险去救人，我实在佩服他。

　　在这本普普通通的小说里，我仿佛看见了许多不同的人，正直善良的马泰特医生、美丽大方的露西、优雅高尚的查尔斯、忠厚老实的.洛瑞、扭曲了人生的德发奇太太、外表冷漠，内心热情的西德尼、豪爽的普洛士小姐、残忍的阴险的埃瑞豪兄弟。

　　作者在本书歪曲了历史，丑化了封建贵族，事实并不尽然。许多情景，如使马奈特医生含冤入狱的空白逮捕令，都是查尔斯冒着生命危险去救马奈特医生，英国人的首领为了怕别的国家说：“法国贵族欺压老百姓”。想要收买查尔特，用很高的地位与财产来收买，查尔特并没有收钱财的迷惑，查尔特改善欺压百姓的不懈努力的故事。

　　主要表现了关爱与行善、反映善恶博斗，爱恨交锋，最后作者所说：“爱总能战胜恨”。恶往往都是昙花一现，都要与作恶者一同死亡，而善则永世长存。”

　　全面地揭示了英国的社会面貌；议会政治的黑暗，统治机构的昏聩、金钱社会的罪恶、人民大众的贫穷。

　　用一个故事来对付自己同时代的的当权者与公众呼吁，*会引起暴力，危机近在旦夕，有钱人都应该已慈悲为怀，流血只能造成更多的流出更多的鲜血。

双城记读后感优秀2

　　“复活在我，生命在我，信我的人，虽然死了，也必复活；凡活着信我的人，必永远不死。”

　　这是一个不幸的年代，作品以法国大革命为背景，反映了封建贵族对人们的迫害，以及法国大革命的欺压，整部故事情节围绕马奈特医生一家展开描述，其中查尔斯·达内便是法国大革命的受害者，他是一名自愿放弃贵族生活，希望独自在社会上找到地位立足的人，不料，却被指控为逃亡贵族，不幸的他即将被送上断头台，而这时，意想不到的事发生了······

　　当时，法国人民攻破了巴士底狱，并开始疯狂地惩罚压迫者，这便是的法国大革命，他们以德日法夫妇为首，不分青红皂白地把人送上断头台，多么荒唐，只为达成他们每天所订的人头个数。于是，他们便渴望能够让达内为他们增添一个人头，达内有一位兄弟：卡顿，他是一位自甘堕落的律师，他得了绝症，于是便恍恍惚惚地苦熬着剩余的时光，他的哥哥达内常常欺辱他、排斥他，甚至不将卡顿当人看，但就在达内被判下死刑的那一天，只有卡顿来看了他，卡顿迷昏了达内，并用自己改装替代了他，让达内终于逃脱了一死，而自己，却在第二天失去了生命。

　　这就是爱，朴实，真诚，在兄弟之间，没有你我，你的生命，就是我的生命，爱是互相的，并不需要过多的语言去表达，只需要用行动去证明。在一起生活的兄弟，有时会耍耍脾气，但永远都无法堵上他们心灵之间的那条通道，它是兄弟的见证，爱的奇迹。

　　在双城记中，作者用大量的笔墨描写了人民的抗争，这也是狄更斯所要揭露的——美与丑，美与丑是相互对应的，但它们却绝非任何人都能分辨出来，“人不可貌相，海水不可斗量。”我们要正确认识到自己或别人的缺陷，并且进行反思、改正，同时，认真地发现周围所有美的事物，用心灵去感受他们。不要被表面所迷惑，更应该做一个正直、善良的人。
