作者简介
Thomas Hardy (1840-1928), an English novelist and poet, is widely held as a seminal figure in the realm of literature, remembered particularly for his profound depictions of rural English life and the deterministic impetus of the natural world. His literary creations reflect a unique blend of Romanticism and Realism, infused with a discernible note of pessimism about the human condition and social progress. 'Tess of the d'Urbervilles,' a poignant narrative of a young woman's tragic life in the fictional county of Wessex, is one of Hardy's most celebrated works, which strikingly illustrates his thematic preoccupation with fate, sexuality, and societal constraints (Hardy, 1891). Hardy's literature is characterized by his deep empathy for his characters and his keen insight into the human psyche, alongside a critical stance on Victorian hypocrisy, particularly concerning social morality and the plight of women. Through 'Tess of the d'Urbervilles' and his other prominent novels, such as 'The Mayor of Casterbridge' (1886) and 'Jude the Obscure' (1895), Hardy has left an indelible imprint on English literature and continues to draw scholarly attention and critical acclaim for the intellectual depth and emotional power of his work.
