精彩摘录
- "On a heap of those soft shavings a rough grey shepherd-dog had made himself a pleasant bed, and was lying with his nose between his fore-paws, occasionally wrinkling his brows to cast a glance at the tallest of the five workmen, who was carving a shield in the centre of a wooden mantelpiece. It was "
- "Such a voice could only come from a broad chest...In his tall stalwartness Adam Bede was a Saxon, and justified his name; but the jet-black hair, made the more noticeable by its contrast with the light paper cap, and the keen glance of the dark eyes that shone from under strongly marked, prominent, "
- "Adam was not a man to be gratuitously superstitious; but he had the blood of the peasant in him as well as of the artisan, and a peasant can no more help believing in a traditional superstition than a horse can help trembling when he sees a camel. Besides, he had that mental combination which is at "
- "Adam, I confess, was very susceptible to the influence of rank, and quite ready to give an extra amount of respect to every one who had more advantages than himself..."
- "(Being) simply a stout-limbed clever carpenter with a large fund of reverence in his nature inclined him to admit all established claims unless he saw very clear grounds for questioning them. ... The word ‘gentleman’ had a spell for Adam, and as he often said, he ‘couldn’t abide a fellow who thought"
- "‘Look there, now! I can’t abide to see men throw away their tools i’ that way, the minute the clock begins to strike, as if they took no pleasure i’ their work, and was afraid o’ doing a stroke too much. ... I hate to see a man’s arms drop down as if he was shot, before the clock’s fairly struck, ju"
- "‘There’s nothing but what’s bearable as long as a man can work,’ he said to himself: ‘the natur o’ things doesn’t change, though it seems as if one’s own life was nothing but change.

- "For the first moment or two he made no answer, but looked at her with the concentrated, examining glance which a man gives to an object in which he has suddenly begun to be interested.

第一部长篇小说，7分
看了超级超级久，700页真的是够了，不过还好没有《米德尔马契》更久……看的这个版本女主角译成汀娜而不是黛娜，勃兰色太太真的是个妙人“他就是只公鸡，以为太阳出来就是要听他叫。”太好笑了哈哈哈，教化寓意很重，但是还是都在为情节服务，并不觉得突兀。
就书本身而言，从未见过的地得错用如此严重的书，错字也不少，有同音有形近。人名译法不一致，严重怀疑是分给几个学生锅，看都没看就汇总定稿了。最离谱的是借到的这本中间少了33页，靠文献传递才补上。因为老版没有纸质版才读的新版翻译，但是在接连三次翻车之后，对新译本的信任度已经直线下降。
读维多利亚小说，沉浸在那个丰富，生动的世界感到莫名的安心。乡村的一草一木，一个个鲜活饱满的农民形象。越是写具体而微的平凡人物，平淡日常，越需要开阔的胸襟。对人性有多少嘲讽也有多少温柔。赫蒂受难的部分读到哽咽，想到苔丝，想到尤斯塔西娅，不合时宜的美貌，不合时宜的梦或许是一杯苦酒，毒酒，然而正因为如此反而更具有悲剧意味。亚塔尔精神上的逐渐“堕落”也颇让人沉思，罪恶的结果往往不起于邪恶的心灵，一点点懦弱，一点点妥协，然后是让人无法琢磨的命运的因果。
狄狄赠书，深谢~19世纪的英伦小说永远是心头好，一切感情与技巧都古典（或曰朴拙）得令人无限宽容，连黛娜喋喋不休的宗教说教都可以忍耐了。艾略特笔触中自有那种惊鸿一现、灵光乍现的字句，珠玉一般，颇可赏玩。
好爱说教，喋喋不休地，黛娜你歇了吧。。。。
【2022.85】
乔治艾略特谈的是上帝，可她关注的焦点从不更易，始终如一。上帝和桌子椅子同处于在一个平面上，结果，我们却一刻都不曾觉得整个宇宙需要怜悯和爱，只有在海蒂的牢房里才需要它们。
读起来的感觉跟哈代蛮像的，很有意思的群像小说，每个人物都各有光辉。不过这个happy ending是不是突兀了点？
