"It is because I was mad and then that today I am wise. O philosopher, you who take an instantaneous view of filings, how short are your perspectives! Your eye is not desired to follow the underground workings of passions."---W. GOETHE一、Brief introduction to the novel The material of the Red and the Black stems from a judgment of a local court, saying that a tutor murdered his female master since he was fall in love with her heavily and, how terribly it is, he had adultery relationship with his female master. Julien ,who is the key figure in this novel ,was a son of a carpenter in Verrieres(维里埃尔), in which every people was selfish, arrogant and eager to be moneybags .He had seen the troops of Napoléon Bonaparte in his childhood, reed certain works of Loescher and the declaration of Napoléon Bonaparte`s army. Although Julien had dreamed to be a general when he was a child under such influence, he abandoned his ideal but turned to be an excellent curate with the time passing by. Julien acted as a tutor for the mayor of Verrieres in his age of nineteen out of his unique talent for Bible comprehension, undoubtedly, it is a blockbuster for Julien, the commonest in all commons of inhabitants of Verrieres in his lifetime stage. There is an old saying goes that each coin has two sides, Julien was felled in love with M. cie Renal , who was “extremely shy and seemed highly impressionable” (英语学习大书虫研究室:《红与黑》,译林出版社,第13页) , was the wife of M. de Rtenal . It was this love that brings demon to Julien, even to his life. Julien had to give up this fat case after revealing his love story and was recommended by abbe Pirard to De La Mole, the brilliant politician in Paris, as his private secretary. Fortunately, something seems precious, had been lost in the last, and is now on the way home when he set his foot in De La Mole’s home. Julien, after a long period pursuing, achieved his lifetime goal that becoming a member of upper class eventually through his marriage with the daughter of DE La Mole, Mathilde, although De La Mole was forced to acknowledge that. But something unexpected happened, M. cie Renal was lured to write a letter to De La Mole to tell him their love story with Julien, De La Mole was filled with anger at the way he had been tricked by Julien and refused to accept Julien any more immediately. As soon as news of tragedy was taken to Julien, shock waves spread rapidly to all parts of his brain, to get publicity and trust back, Julien used shock tactics, that is to say, taking a shot at M. cie Renal, the wife of the mayor of Verrieres. When it comes to the end, each cool head could have the same image:“ she (Mathilde) was lighting a number of candles…… she had placed Julien’s head on a little marble table in front of her, and she was kissing his forehead…… ”(英语学习大书虫研究室:《红与黑》,译林出版社,第569页) 二、Personal comments on this novel (一) 、Julien is a liberator This viewpoint may be disputed by many people; I still believe that it is Julient which brought free ideology to such women who were being long term oppression. Chairman Mao had said that “You said Julien had destroyed others’ family, even a happy family, this comment is not objective. Actually, such a happy family cannot be destroyed, if it were true, it would be unhappy obviously. That family has oppression, therefore, where is oppression, where is revolt. This is called reacting force, I am sure Julien is the liberator which helps Madame to carry on the revolt.” As every body knows that Julien is the commonest in lower class, he has ambition that changing his mortal status which prevent him from entering upper class and having highly self-development, although his tactics seemed too harsh or, at least, aggressive, he had spared no effort to pursuit what he believes belongs to his inner heart, let alone love between M. cie Renal and Mathilde. What causes Julien’s death is not his immoral or illegal behaviors but the need of the politician’s nasty competition for respective political profits. Julien is a liberator because his words and behaviors’ influence had set an idol for the publicity, even the representative of upper class, M. cie Renal, we can see these lines in the ending of this novel: “M. cie Renal was faith to her promise. She did not seek in any way at all to take her own life; but three days after Julien (Julien’ death), she died with her children in her arms.” (英语学习大书虫研究室:《红与黑》,译林出版社,第569页). Without Julien’s influences, the ideology of revolt, even lightly disobey to such oppression could not be a little spark. Julien’s death just the incident which sparked off a whole chain of disasters to the system of society, Julien became the deaf lamb of political tricks, whose miserable life showing to us just the initial intention of the writer to write this tragedy, that is to say, to reveal such nasty secrets behind pert faces. (二) 、The artistic feature of this novel 1、Realism Stendhal , the author of this novel, who was “the first one to reveal capitalism’s feature after its victory ”(《列宁选集》，中华书局，第473页), is a realist writer. In this novel , all sentences and words 、attitudes and behavior based on the acceptance of facts and the rejection of sentiment and illusion. He is loyal to portrayal of familiar things as they are without idealizing them a little, the material of the story stems from a judgment of a local court, saying that a tutor murdered his female master since he was fall in love with her heavily and, how terribly it is, he had adultery relationship with his female master. It was that document which gives Stendhal inspiration to write this world-famous work and aim at revealing the cruelty、 darkness 、bitterness of living in capitalism society and extremely selfish for respective profits. 2、Educational No one could dispute that each reader of this novel would find the experience of such characters most educational, you could find out your own shadow somehow when compared to them, which is the extraordinary charming, having unique power, or, overwhelming. Let me go straightly, Julien’s personal experience was a mirror to us youth who want to make difference in the world in his lifespan and his tragedy just justify what said by Arabham Lincon: “you can fool all the people some of the time, some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.” 3、Critical The Red and the Black is not popular in the current critical climate of that age, some literary criticism even spoke critically of S. History always goes forward by justice, she taught us trying to develop a more critical attitude, instead of accepting everything at face value. With time went by, this terrific work receive palms from publicity gradually, hundreds of years gone, it has formed formidable influence and dominated Google searching net last three years. What he intents to reveal is becoming obviously in modern capitalism society nowadays, more and more literalists has learnt his literary style, making more and more extraordinary contribution to the harmonious relationship to each respect. It is the Red and the Black that help us to know capitalism more profoundly.
