Chapter 1: An essay on reading "La Traviata"
Opening the book, I quietly walked into the street corner of Paris. In this legendary bustling area, everything around seems to be falling into the dark abyss. The miserable and desperate screams linger in the ears for a long time, which is creepy and the suppressed black solemnity It feels like it's about to drip down. But in this sinful world, it is also incredible that there is such a place of feasting and feasting. It was in a luxurious ballroom, and in a huge theater, there were always well-dressed dignitaries, and there were always young girls wearing silk wraps and heavy makeup. They looked dignified in their manners and spoke elegantly. But in fact, he lived a romantic life. The bright red wine swayed lazily in the crystal goblet, and the graceful dance posture swayed gently amidst the soothing music. But amidst the noise of pleasure-seeking, there is a white camellia blooming quietly, and its faint fragrance is refreshing.
Yes, she is the Lady of the Camellias - Margaret. She has a pretty face like a flower and a slender and slender body. Her charming charm makes all the dandies in Paris fascinated by her, and she even goes bankrupt because of it! Yes, she is a prostitute, a woman who makes a living by selling her body and living a wealthy life by relying on the support of other men. In the eyes of others, she is extremely enviable, because as a prostitute living in the flower streets and willow alleys, she has the same or even more luxurious living treatment and more exquisite gold and silver jewelry as other ladies and ladies. However, how many people understand the sad and broken heart hidden behind her, and how many people know that "she felt like she was drifting in a sea of ??suffering, lonely and painful"? Poor Margaret, she could only silently endure the insults and persecution of those hateful capitalists!
Perhaps it was God’s favor that brought her her beloved Armand, but what was unexpected was that this became a greater tragedy for her! Indeed, Armand brought her the most beautiful happy time in her life and made her feel the sweet taste of love. However, compared with what Margaret has given, Armand's love seems as small as an insect. In order to be with Armand, she resolutely gave up the wealthy life in Paris, and did not hesitate to offend the old Duke; in order not to let the troubles of life affect Armand's mood, she often tried her best to be cheerful and endure the hardships of life alone. For the sake of the reputation of Armand's family, she resolutely left Armand with great sadness, and broke off all love affairs between Armand and her on the pretext of returning to her old career. She is always sacrificing herself to help others. She is truly a "kind-hearted woman" and "a considerate woman". However, her great sacrifice did not earn Armand any gratitude or guilt. Instead, she gained Armand's even more vicious revenge! Finally, under endless torture, Margaret finally became poor, sick, physically and mentally exhausted, and died alone in her apartment. This white camellia, which was at the most beautiful moment of its life, withered, withered and died prematurely and miserably under the ruthless ravages of the storm.
Dear Margaret, you white camellia! Although you lead a dissolute life, you have an unusually holy soul, a kind heart, and an independent personality! You are upright and kind, you are elegant and dignified, you emerge from the mud without being stained, you are willing to sacrifice without complaining, your spirit is as noble as that pure white camellia, "although it is short-lived, its fragrance remains in the world"! But why, why does God treat you so unfairly, why does it torture you so ruthlessly, and why does it end your flower-like life like this? Who can tell me why, my poor Margaret! Chapter 2: Thoughts after reading "La Traviata"
In a tragic world, a tragic character was created - La Traviata. Although she is a prostitute, her fate is so tear-jerking. The author also gives deep sympathy to this poor girl who was traumatized and finally died in a cold place.
She is a kind-hearted girl, otherwise she would not give up everything for love, but why did she enter the mortal world and become a prostitute. Did she go to this hell of her own free will, or was she forced to do so? In this reality that is only gorgeous on the surface but ugly on the inside, people deceive each other and cover up the world with hypocrisy. Her existence is inevitable, and her fate is irreversible. Maybe she even hated it all.
Around her, no one showed true love for her, and no one loved her for her sake. Prue? Silk, if it were not for the reward, she would be so servile to Margaret; if those love affairs were not for getting her, would they support her; if those businessmen were not for making a fortune from her , will you speculate on her... No, no, no... Until her death. Only then did they reveal their true colors. A face that is scary and even ambitious, but for her, they no longer need that hypocritical mask, just because she is no longer worth using. The saddest thing is that after her death, those people rushed to auction her belongings. She was like a bunch of useless rubbish, forgotten, abandoned, and pushed to the bottom of the dust pile, soundless.
Perhaps the most shining point in her life is Armand. They both had overwhelming feelings for each other and made sacrifices for each other. But their love was not recognized or approved by anyone, nor was it allowed by society. Margaret is a prostitute. Although she gave up everything, she still cannot change the reality. No one there can accept, let alone believe, that a prostitute will become a good person. She will always live in the shadow of a prostitute. In the end, it was for Armand that he fell again. But also for his sister. Yes, "She is as pure and pure as the noblest woman. How greedy she is, how selfless she is."
Although Armand has a weak side, he is impulsive, irritable, and jealous. He didn't understand Margaret. He was so extreme that he thought he had been deceived and kept taking revenge. The more hatred filled his heart, the more Margaret's pain and sadness became apparent. But Margaret did not regret all her choices. She was convinced that when he knew the truth, she would appear extra noble in his eyes. However, what happened after her death. Margaret is a strong girl who faces death alone, but she is so kind and does not want him to see her pain before death. The happiest time in her life was given by Armand, but the most painful time in her life was also given by Alfang. (Facing an eternal farewell before death is the most painful.) Armand's appearance is the catalyst that leads her to the end of her destiny. deepening her tragic fate. Maybe without Armand, even if there is no shining point, there will be no deep pain. Perhaps it was because of Armand that her life became radiant. Only then could she be completely free from this miserable world.
Margaret is a snow lotus blooming in the darkness, flawless white and shining with light, but the light is so weak and indistinct. In the end, she was swallowed up by darkness, such a powerful force. She was also a bow. Her appearance was devoured until nothing was left, but her heart was strong and holy. But in order to be able to shoot the arrow farther and more accurately, she continued to tire herself out until she was destroyed. Chapter 3: My thoughts after reading "La Traviata"
I have heard of "La Traviata" written by Xiao Zhongma a long time ago and it is very touching. Therefore, I read this work during this winter vacation. The book "La Traviata" mainly tells the love story between the hero Armand and the heroine Marguerite. Armand was an outstanding young man in society at that time, and Margaret was a famous prostitute at that time. The two young people with different identities met in the theater, and then a spark of love sparked. Romance between two people was not allowed under the social conditions at that time, but their true love for each other made them willing to give up everything, including status, money and family expectations. The good times did not last long, and they were forced to separate by their relatives. The woman returned to her life of being someone else's lover, but the man lived in hatred and revenge.
Days passed day by day, and the heroine's illness became more and more serious. She died. She was lonely when she died. Her friends were far away from her, and her lover was not around. What she left to the world was Just a shell.
When I finished reading this book, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of sadness in my heart. I sympathized with Margaret because she gave everything but got no love in return; I also admire her very much. Margaret, because she was willing to sacrifice her own happiness in order to preserve Armand's sister's surname. It can be said that she is pitiful and the love between her and Armand is tragic. In my opinion, the most touching parts of the book are the last few sections, which describe the reasons why Margaret left Armand and her situation during her illness. When I saw this, I saw that she was suffering for love, and that she was a noble sufferer.
To be honest, after reading this book, I felt very sad and complicated. On the one hand, I feel sad for Margaret's experience; on the other hand, I want to appeal for her. I am very angry. I am angry. Why can't Margaret have a beautiful love that belongs to her? Just because she is a prostitute, and this prostitute falling in love with Armand will defile the family, it is ridiculous. Could it be that in which society at that time, every rich kid was allowed to have several lovers, but a prostitute was not allowed to have one perfect love? Margaret is a kind, innocent woman with a pure heart. She is much better than those sanctimonious rich girls! The society at that time was really unfair. It tortured this kind woman every day when she was healthy, and it also tortured her when she was approaching death. Throughout the book, every detail reflects her desire for life and love.
From Margaret, I saw true kindness and innocence, and I also saw her loyalty to love. I think that when Margaret died, all she had was the happy memory of living with Armand in the country. Maybe she knew that she should be satisfied because she once had a poignant love that she should not have. . Chapter 4: Thoughts after reading "La Traviata"
One afternoon, looking at the scorching sun outside the window, I sighed lazily and decided not to go out. I walked towards the bookshelf with nothing to do, and my eyes were suddenly attracted by a book. I don't know where the interest came from. I took down the book, poured a cup of green tea, and started reading in the quiet fragrance of tea.
I had heard of the title of this book "La Traviata" as early as my childhood, and my impression was that it described a beautiful prostitute who was pretentious and bohemian. But after actually reading, I realized that what I had in mind was just a surface, and the real Margaret (La Traviata) was waiting in the dark, waiting for me to gradually discover it.
The story takes place in the beautiful city of Paris, France.
The handsome young Armand Duval once met the famous prostitute Marguerite who was like being praised by the stars at the entrance of the Suisse store on the Place de la Bourse - a high-end and famous fashion store at that time? ; Gautier, fell in love with her at first sight, and kept asking about her situation. A few years later, they met again, and this time everything changed. Armand fell in love with Margaret regardless of his status or even everything, and the courtesan also gave up the material life of red wine in Paris for Armand, an infatuated young man without property and a generous annual salary, and started a new life with him in the countryside. Had a wonderful time. But this beautiful and lovely scene didn't last long. Armand's father came to the door. For the sake of his son's future and his daughter's happy life, he ignored the opposition of the lovers, no matter how deep and true their love was, and coaxed Margaret to leave his son behind Armand's back. A few years later, Armand returned to Paris again. He hated the poor prostitute out of love and used cruel methods to avenge her departure. When everything became clear and the infatuated young man realized that La Traviata still loved him deeply, everything was over. After the smoke dissipated, Armand was left with deep regret and guilt.
What moved me most was the passage in which Armand’s father persuaded Margaret to leave his son.
The father said that Armand's prospective brother-in-law despised his eldest son for being ignorant and deeply in love with a prostitute. He hoped that Margaret would leave his son, give his daughter happiness and give his son freedom. Margaret listened to this seemingly sincere request, looked at the old man's vicissitudes of face, and felt the love that belonged to her father. The pure kindness in her heart was deeply touched. She agreed with tears streaming down her face, but her heart felt like a knife. Seeing this, I stopped and sighed deeply.
Margaret is beautiful and smart. Although she has fallen into the dust, she has emerged from the filth and still maintains a pure and noble heart. She is different from ordinary fireworks women. She is loving, kind, hopeful, and dreamy, and she even shines with a holy light. She is more pitiable and loved than the lady Xiaojiabiyu.
Margaret is undoubtedly passionate because she has been pursuing true love in this world. When she met Armand, she decided to change everything about herself for him. She paid for him, shed tears for him, and even broke off contact with the duke and count, losing the money to pay off debts and hundreds of thousands of francs for annual expenses; she sold the luxurious carriage and exquisitely crafted cashmere shawl for him and pawned it. Isn’t it proof enough that she didn’t want Armand to bear the heavy burden of expenses for those coveted jewelry? Margaret's love for Armand is not a trick or a trick, but a true feeling.
Margaret is even more kind. When she learned that she and Armand could not be together and her hope of pursuing love was shattered, she chose to give up and leave. She sacrificed herself and exchanged her departure for the happiness of Armand's sister and a possible successful future for Armand, but at the same time, she lost her true love and her last happiness. How many of us would choose to do this? So sacrificing yourself to help others, so willing to torture yourself just to make more people happy, so decisive and resolute even though your heart is cut by a knife? How many people can do this?
Today I can’t help but admire Marguerite Gautier. Maybe she still has a dissolute side, maybe she is not worth the sacrifice, but how can we deny her? Of her courage, kindness, love, beauty, and wisdom, is there anything that doesn't make us sad? The three words "La Traviata" should not be a sign of debauchery in people's hearts. Instead, they may still retain the glory of holiness, because La Traviata has a pure, noble and tolerant heart and a kind heart.
Let us praise Margaret Gautier, La Traviata!
Let us all have a kind heart like Margaret Gautier! Chapter 5: Thoughts after reading "La Traviata"
Today I truly appreciated the shocking power of this world-famous novel. My heart was still trembling long after reading it. I don’t know how many people it has brought to tears of sympathy and sadness over the centuries, but it certainly has made me sad and sympathetic for a long time.
Undoubtedly, this is a touching, tragic, sympathetic, and beautiful love story. Especially in the early days of bourgeois society in the mid-19th century, a society with naked money relations made it even more exciting. People were amazed.
There are no gorgeous words, but the sincere emotional dialogue makes everyone who has had a love experience immerse themselves in the situation, and gradually integrate the protagonist with themselves, and be able to put themselves in their love shoes. , light for their joy and heavy for their tragedy.
Margaret, a promiscuous woman who hangs out in the alleys of fireworks in Paris, a woman who is seriously ill, a woman who is used to living a life of luxury and luxury, seems to be incapable of true love. . It seems that he should only have business feelings, and should not be freed from them to gain true love and soul comfort. And once obtained, it seems to herald the beginning of a tragedy. People like them can only indulge in a materialistic life and try their best to conceal and avoid the revelation of true love. But once they determine the destination of true love, they will resolutely pursue it. Margaret is such a woman.
Armand seems to like Margaret very much. In fact, he did love that woman very much.
The more sensational your life was during your lifetime, the more deserted it will be when you die.
I understood her pain, helplessness and despair at that time, and I also knew that her sacrifice was her lifelong happiness. But she had no regrets. When Mr. Dewar gently kissed her forehead, she was so excited that she was willing to exchange all her happiness for another girl's decent marriage. At that moment, I was also moved by her great and pure love. I felt like she was an angel, even though her eyes were full of tears.
Anyone can have a pure heart. Although some people do not have a good social status or wealth, as long as they have a pure heart, they will be satisfied and moved.
At the end of the story, Armand, filled with infinite regret and melancholy, moved a grave specifically for Margaret to be buried, and filled her grave with white camellias. Among the pure white camellias, I vaguely saw the still beautiful smile of Margaret...
Thanks to Xiaozhongma for creating such a sad but respectable beauty as La Traviata. woman. However, I hope that when the dead flowers sprout and are reborn from the soil again, they will stay away from the dark corners and be with the sunshine every day. Even if they are no longer so beautiful, they will not repeat the tragedy of their previous lives. Composition Part 7: Thoughts after reading "La Traviata"

When I was still in the sixth grade, I had already read the masterpiece "La Traviata". I was still young at the time, so I just got this book by chance for entertainment, and I didn’t have a deep understanding of the plot and characters. However, I read it again this year, and I felt like I had some feelings that I didn't have at the time.
Before talking about my feelings, let's talk about the author of "La Traviata" first. He has a great background - he is the illegitimate son of the famous playwright Alexandre Dumas - Xiao Dumas.
The status of a legendary but disgraceful illegitimate child made Dumas's life different from ordinary people. It also inflicted hard-to-heal wounds on Dumas's heart and affected his thoughts and character. As a victim of the Parisian style at that time, he was determined to criticize this trend through literary creation. In 1848, Xiao Dumas wrote his famous work - "La Traviata".
"La Traviata" tells the story of the tragic experience of a popular prostitute in the flowery world of Paris during the July Monarchy. Margaret is a young and beautiful woman who lives a very luxurious life, but she is not greedy for money or vulgar, but a woman with a kind heart and noble sentiments. However, due to her unusual identity, her seemingly beautiful life is always shrouded in a trace of sadness.
She was originally a poor country girl. After coming to Paris, she became the object of pursuit by Parisian nobles due to her beautiful appearance, and became a very popular "La Traviata".
Her long-term irregular life made her seriously ill, but she didn't take it seriously. Her life is like a pool of stagnant water, calm and without any ripples. Originally, she would have continued this boring life forever, but...
Armand Duval, the son of Mr. Duval, the tax commissioner, is the hero of this novel. His sincere love was like a burning flame, lighting up Margaret's life. His whole body was full of vitality, which also brought vitality to Margaret.
Marguerite fell in love with him. Margaret is determined to abandon her boring life in Paris. After hard work, Margaret and Armand got a house in the countryside. But even though Margaret has decided to change, her past debts still affect her. In order to survive, Margaret pawned her gold and silver jewelry, shawls, carriages and horses behind Armand's back when the Duke cut off her financial resources. She was so determined to say goodbye to the past, but happiness always passed her by...
Armand's father learned about Margaret's affairs and obstructed her in every possible way. So, under the persuasion of Armand's father, Margaret left Armand against her will. However, Armand did not understand her. Instead, he resented her and embarrassed her at every turn. He even found another mistress and insulted her. In the end, she passed away desolately due to various oppressions and insults - even at the last moment, she never saw her beloved again.
When reading this book, I felt as if I had entered the heroine's inner world and felt her noble spiritual realm. Inside her tired body is a heart longing for true love. She worked hard and fought for it. She tried to control her own destiny, but she still fell in front of the dark society.
Camellia is a very tenacious plant, just like Margaret in Alexandre Dumas' novel. Even though the world gave her countless tragic experiences, she still lived strong - but in the end her body and mind It was still too much to bear.
From this book, I saw the corruption of the French upper class at that time, and I also understood that even if you are trapped in the mud, as long as you have a kind and noble heart, there will always be people who know how to appreciate you. You, because flowers always emit fragrance.
