（On The Social Cause of Te’Tragedy）

Abstract

Hardy's masterpiece Te of The D'urbevilles depicts the heroine's miserable life,revealing out the objective cause of society reality and subjective cause of heroine's own character.heroine's own weck character is but:Dare to resist tradition morality being not able to shake off that,and whose double character were yoke her completely.Under Hardy’s pen, the heroine Te is created as an attractive and warm-hearted pure woman, who has the quality of endurance and self-sacrifice.suffers a lot from her misfortunate life.She is a victim of the traditional moral concepts and hypocritical religion of the Victorian times.However, she is not weak but very powerful woman.She takes rebellion against the hypocritical religion and traditional moral concepts, male chauvinism and cla oppreion all through her life.Te is a symbol of unclear and unstable notions of cla in nineteenth-century Britain, where old family lines retained their earlier glamour, but where cold economic realities made sheer wealth more important than inner nobility..Te has long been regarded as the most exceptional woman character in English literary history.However , the life of this pure woman is tragic.She is firstly seduced, then abandoned and finally driven to murder for which she is hanged.What is responsible for her tragic fate? What is the reason for a pure woman to become a murderer? We couldn’t help thinking over these questions again and again.From the tragic story of Te’ short life, we can see in a deeper sense that it is the capitalist society of the time that has ruined her.Living in a society overwhelmed by capitalist Law, religion and state apparatus, Te, a poor peasant, inevitably leads a tragic life and finally goes to her collapse.What are Te’s tragedy causes? Can it be avoidable? Or can it be unavoidable? This eay will list some reasons of influencing Te's tragic features from the background of that era, family causes, internal causes of Te.Therefore the form of her tragic features is unavoidable.
