Chapter 56 de maupassant short masterpiece

de maupassant short masterpiece Since the nineteenth century, there have been two short story writers in Europe, one is Chehe Husband, one is Maupassant.Some people think that Chekhov is better than Mabe in terms of artistic achievements in short stories. Sang is bigger.However, because Chekhov's style is relatively calm and simple, he is not as easy-going as Maupassant. Therefore, more people love to read Maupassant's short stories than Chekhov's works.especially because Because Maupassant is French after all, most of his works focus on the love relationship between men and women.

It is easier to attract the interest of general readers.In fact, the achievements of the two of them in short stories, It can be said that each has its own merits, and it is not easy to draw conclusions easily. Maupassant was born in 1850 into a poor noble family.mediocre father Yes, my mother is a talented woman, and this created Maupassant's future literary future.because of mother I met Flaubert, and seeing my son's interest in literary and artistic writing, I intentionally called him He devoted himself to Flaubert's school and worshiped him as his teacher.This master of naturalistic literature had already been

The novel "Madame de Bovary" became famous for a while, and he also saw that Maupassant, a young man, had a great appreciation for literature and art. With a sincere enthusiasm for writing, he accepted the entrustment and promised to give him careful guidance in literary and artistic writing. In this way, for almost seven years, every Sunday, Maupassant brought his new The original manuscript of his work, visited his teacher, received his guidance face to face, stood aside and watched Fu Loubert revised his manuscript with a blue pencil, and then gave verbal pointers until the night

Just said goodbye and left. This master of naturalism can be said to have passed on his clothes to this disciple of his.he gave mo Possant's writing motto is: "Observe, then observe, and observe"! Flaubert told Maupassant that in literary description there is only one most appropriate adjective.How to find this proper adjective is the responsibility of the writer, It is also a necessary condition for being a good writer. He added: There are thirty horses here, and if you want to describe one of them, you must Describe it so that others can recognize it at a glance and know that it is different from the other twenty-nine horses.

Where is it. Adhering to such guidance, Maupassant developed a particularly keen observation ability in writing.he At first he wrote poems, plays, and later novels, but the most successful are his short stories. Among his short stories, "Fat Ball" and "Necklace" are the most praised. It is not only Maupassant's masterpiece, but also one of the best short stories in the world. masterpiece. "Fat Ball" was written on the occasion of the Franco-Prussian War. In this short story, Maupassant not only carried forward Not only did he express his patriotic thought, but also mercilessly mocked the hypocrisy and ignorance of the gentlemen and ladies of the French upper class

madness. The so-called "fat ball" was the nickname of a private prostitute in France at that time.because she was plump Obese, so others called her "fat ball".At the beginning of the story, a group of men and women took a long-distance horse The car is going somewhere in Paris.Most of these passengers are so-called upper-class people, but fat globules happen to be is one of the passengers.Once those self-proclaimed male and female passengers found out the identity of Fat Ball, they all Sit far away from her, disdain to talk to her.But during this trip, apart from fat globules

Other than that, no one ever brought food.Therefore, when everyone was panicking with hunger, the fat balls took out their own The food I brought to treat guests, everyone forgot their identities as gentlemen and ladies, and rushed to eat. I don't think her things are "dirty" anymore. It was the time of the Franco-Prussian War. When the carriage arrived at the night station, unexpectedly the place had already disappeared. Occupied by Prussian troops.The Prussian military officer ordered the detainment of all the French men and women passengers. Keep.Later, when the officer found the fat ball, he put forward a condition, saying that if the fat ball would stay with him overnight,

Everyone can be released unconditionally the next day. Of course Fat Ball refused, because at this time the Prussians were the enemies of France.But those gentlemen For the sake of selfishness, ladies and gentlemen use all kinds of reasons to persuade her to accept this condition with one voice. He even complained that if she refused the officer's request, everyone would be detained, and asked her how she could bear it.Have The wives begged her tearfully.Under this situation, Fat Ball had no choice but to agree to the army. officer's request. The next day, the Prussian officer released everyone as promised.However, when the fat ball walks into the car

When they came, those gentlemen and ladies were very grateful to this man who had resolutely sacrificed his appearance for the benefit of all of them. Companion, unexpectedly ignored again proudly.Fat Ball sat in a corner indifferently, thinking about it, I couldn't help but shed tears sadly.But the ladies are still whispering that fat globules are caused by I was ashamed and wept. Maupassant ruthlessly satirized the selfishness and stupidity of men and women in the upper class of France at that time. Ambiguous. In another of his masterpieces "The Necklace", Maupassant, in addition to satirizing the love of working-class women,

In addition to vanity, they also praise and sympathize with their kind and honest nature.the story is about a love The little housewife dressed in vanity, in order to attend a banquet and want to show off, asked a woman A friend borrowed a pair of diamond necklaces.Unexpectedly, when he came back from the banquet, he lost the necklace.husband The couple did not dare to let the owner know, so they decided to try to buy back a pair and give it to her. They spent a total of 36,000 yuan. franc.Of course they don't have the money. In addition to taking out their savings and selling everything, they also ask their relatives and friends for money.

Friends borrowed money, and finally closed the matter.Later, in order to pay off the huge debt, the couple It took ten years of hard work to save money on food and expenses, and it was only then that I paid the burden of buying that necklace. debt paid off.They didn't dare to buy another necklace in secret until they paid it off. Tell the owner the truth about the compensation.But the owner answered them after hearing this: "My God, why didn't you say so sooner? The pair I lent you The necklace is nothing more than fake diamonds, worth five hundred francs at the most!" After reading this novel by Maupassant, many people can't help but sigh at the same time, pity that love The vain housewife is too honest. Of course, in addition to these two, Maupassant has written many excellent short stories.but These two articles alone are enough to make him immortal. Maupassant's nerves were stimulated in his later years and he was on the verge of confusion.Since 1893, he has tried to commit suicide repeatedly. Later, he was admitted to a mental hospital, and died on July 7th. He only lived to be forty-three years old.
