Despair versus freedom

Koby 2022-04-19 09:02:55

If you use despair over nothingness to resist freedom, the hope in despair will undoubtedly betray this original intention. To put the protagonist's yearning for a new life into practice is to destroy the old order of life, which reduces the confrontation between despair and freedom. Crime makes resistance futile, and unlimited freedom eventually leads them into the cage of fate. Every deviance means "anonymous fleeing far away like a storm", and when the doomed punishment comes, they have not yet realized that the freedom not bound by the norms of the world has the power of self-destruction beyond itself, and this freedom realizes itself After dying, they can only be swallowed by a void. Love excludes the freedom of both parties, which is how love destroys. But does the love between Ferdinand and Marianne really exist? I think there should only be Ferdinand's love for Marianne.
