Thomas Hardy's Portrayal of a Pure Woman in Tess of the D'Urbervilles
A textbook on short story
Abstract
The current study aims at exploring the depiction of a pure woman in Thomas Hardy's Tess of the D'Urbervilles. It also provides a brief commentary on Hardy's quality of writing, contributions and reputation and some related matters.
In this novel, Thomas Hardy depicts Angel's obsession with purity may taken as a uniquely important determinant of Tess's fate. It is not going too far to say that without it there would have been no tragedy, especially of a 'pure' woman.
The conflict of Angel's image of woman with real woman Tess becomes the turning point in the novel. The characterization of Angel is sufficiently plausible, in spite of a certain flatness, to make his attitude seem natural both to him and to the mental landscape of the novel.
