6. Red and Black

Content introduction:

Red and Black is a monument of French and even European literature in the19th century. The novel focuses on the personal struggle and two love experiences of the protagonist Julian, revealing the turbulent class struggle during the Restoration Dynasty.

It reflects the broad life picture of political darkness, church corruption, aristocratic reaction and bourgeois greed. Julian's two love motives are based on the possession of love, and ultimately they all want to achieve their own political goals.

Through the literary image of Julien, on the one hand, it describes the panic of the nobility and the middle and small bourgeoisie under the impact of the wave of people's revolution on the eve of the French July Revolution; On the other hand, it created an artistic image of an individual careerist who appeared in the social upheaval, and beautified the bourgeois outlook on life and happiness.

The structure of the novel is rigorous and symmetrical, the language is concise and fluent, the characters' images and personalities are closely connected with the environment, and it is good at revealing the contradictions and conflicts in the characters' hearts and the instantaneous changes in their thoughts and feelings, thus highlighting the characters' personality characteristics. This is the greatest artistic feature of this book.
