        <description><![CDATA[This phrase occurs  in "Tess of the d'Urbervilles" when Angel remarks that Tess has the "ache of modernism" which seems to refer to Hardy's dislike, as Marcelle Clements writes in the introduction, for "the repercussions of the industrial revolution, the extinction of rural life, the implacable roles of caste, gender, and morality in Victorian England" as well as the laws of Social Darwinism. 
 In the novel, Angel Clare, of the upper...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[After he knows Tess’s impurity, he right away turns his back towards Tess and hurts Tess deeply by
harsh words.
Scholar LI Hong-lan criticizes Alec for he ruthlessly destroys a naive country girl. But actually after Tess
gives birth to her child with Alec, she gradually acquires the ability to overcome the moral and social stigma and
thus maintains her dignity and sense of self. She becomes brave enough to face people’s gossips. Even...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[it is obviously that Angel stands for the bright and advanced class while Alec
the degenerated and hypocritical bourgeoisie. Compared with Alec, Angel is gilded with a flame of purity and
kind-heartedness. He seems to be the real angel.
However, the fact is, even Tess never cares about Alec and tells him several times that she does not love him
Alec still wants to woo her and take care of her family. On the contrary, Angel scarcely takes...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Alec accepts Tess’s request of possible kin without any reluctance. He writes a letter to
provide Tess with a job. He teaches Tess how to whisper in a proper way. He saves Tess from a terrible fight with
other women. When they two lose their way in the forest at night, Alec makes a comfort nest from dead leaves for
Tess and puts his overcoat round Tess before he leaves her. All these things he does are evidence to testify his love

        <description><![CDATA[In &quot;Tess of the d'Urbervilles,&quot; the quote &quot;Remember my Lady, I was your master once! I will be your master again,&quot; is significant because it is a foreshadowing of what fate has in store for Tess.  Hardy was a fatalist and believed that things happen to people because of fate and the choices we make simply lead us to what was going to happen all a long. &quot;At the end of the novel, after Tess dies, Hardy writes, &quot;...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Alec rides up at the fair on a horse takes Tess home.  While taking her home he gets them lost in the woods.  He tells Tess to wait until he finds the way back to the road.  While she waited she fell asleep.  When he returned to her and found her asleep, Alec takes sexual liberties with Tess.  She becomes his lover for 4 months and then sneeks out of the house to walk home.  This was the first time he was her &quot;master&quot;.  As...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[When I did Tess in college, I always used the scholarly journal searches that most schools offer their students for free.  Online journals like J-Stor, although sometimes difficult to search and sift through, often have fantastic information that covers a wide variety of topics.  Also, even if you cannot find your exact topic, you should be able to find information that is relevant and useful in these sorts of journals.  If the online...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[One connection between these two novels may be psychology. &quot;Tess of the d'Urbervilles&quot; deals with the psychology of guilt, and what it means to be a victim. &quot;Heart of Darkness&quot; deals with the psychology of domination and what it means to seize power over others. Contrasting the psychological processes of the protagonists in both novels would be a great paper. The characters are starkly different, but the psychological...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The quotation refers to the main character of the novel, Tess. She is a victim of rape, and feels tremendous guilt because of the loss of her purity. She blames herself throughout the novel for the crime perpetrated on her. She is unable to get out from under the guilt. By stating that a victim is always a victim under law, the quote suggests that Tess will always be guilty in her own mind so long as she is a victim under the law. Her guilt is...]]></description>
