TheCharactersofOliverTwist雾都孤儿性格分析

毕业论文中文摘要

《雾都孤儿》是伟大现实主义学家查尔斯狄更斯的一部巨著。

它主要描述了主人公小奥利佛的悲惨遭遇，故事中他遇到了各型各色的人，有的加害于他，也有的帮助过他。

而他在此期间也表现出了各种各样的特点。

本论文主要介绍了奥利佛的性格特点。

这些特点可从他对待人和事物的态度上表现出来。

本论文第一章简要的介绍了整个故事内容，并对此惊醒了简要的概括，并对作者查尔斯狄更斯做了简介及他与《雾都孤儿》这本书，进而引出本文论题：

奥利佛的性格特点。

以下几章主要对此进行介绍。

第二章主要讨论的是奥利佛最大的性格特点：

善良。

在本章中主要从他对待费金、南希、狄克和穷人等的态度上着手，从多方面分析了奥利佛的善良。

这些人有些试图加害于他，有些则有恩于他，但奥利佛都对他们表现出了善良的品质，与当时的社会形成对比。

第三章主要讨论的是奥利佛的天真。

天真可以说是他的第二大性格特点。

本章同样是从他对待身边的人和物的态度上分析的。

他的天真既帮助过他逃离灾难，但也使他陷入过困境，但总体来说，他的天真是难能可贵的，尤其是处于当时的社会背景之下就更弥足珍贵了。

奥利佛不仅善良天真才，而且也很勇敢。

第四章就主要对他的勇敢做了分析。

他虽年仅十岁，表现出的勇敢却令人敬佩：

向厨师要更多的粥喝徒步去伦敦等都表现出了他过人的勇敢，这与其社会背景也有强烈反差。

最后一章就是对本论文的总结，重申了奥咯佛的性格特点，并与当时社会背景及其他人做了简单的对比，突出了奥利佛值得我们学习的优秀品质。
