This play depicts the following characters:
an elder who is unwilling to submit to secular religion and violate his personal creed in the wave of the industrial revolution, a conscientious capitalist who fails to exploit the poor and lower-middle peasants (ps: I am from Do not consider this form of exploitation a prerogative of the Western context, the slow death of the Milton worker who sucked cotton into his lungs and the fleeting moment of the miner's explosion when a small coal kiln collapsed in Shanxi, except for the length of death, please tell me What is the essential difference), a kind, noble, not arrogant, old-fashioned dog who is accustomed to rejection, an invincible queen mother who makes her son proud, fortitude and foresight, and a queen mother who leads strikes, adopts orphans, and appreciates her work, all for the sake of making others live well. A better uncle of workers, a loyal and simple fat nurse whose self-determination will not surpass that of servants. Of course, there are also some tragic characters for contrast, such as the heroine's suitors, the vain and frivolous hero's sister, the unscrupulous worker who was beaten to blood in the cotton-padded workshop because of smoking, and so on.
The love in this play conveys the following meanings:
Two arrogant people are often attracted to each other. If no one puts down their self-esteem, then the legend has ended before it started; The misunderstanding of utilitarianism deepens the misunderstanding of both parties. So go with the flow and it will come naturally.
Plato said that there is an A in the world, which is a four-legged animal. Because of the aesthetic problem of the creator, A is divided into two halves, B and C. So B and C silently search for the other half in order to make their lives complete. Until one day, either in the inadvertent pitch, or on the bus leading to the unknown, or in the moment of silently looking at each other, B and C meet. They are familiar with each other's characters, principles and habits, know who is left-handed and who doesn't like onion and garlic, and they have a tacit understanding like a pair of homologous chromosomes. final combination. (Letters are fictitious, scenarios are hypothetical, final interpretation is mine.)
There will always be one party with masochistic tendencies, intoxicated with submission to the other, and content with the painful experience that ensues. That is, maybe knowing that there is no result, they keep looking back and go back at the coordinates of the other party's departure.
Also, I am guilty of turning on the computer to write the Peterberg book report, and then unknowingly applying the boring paradigm here, torturing the public.
