15、.Doris Lessings career is novelist, short story writer, and essayist. From the mid-twentieth century, she is considered as one of the most important writers of the modern postwar era. Because she always travels around the world, she knew well in geographical, social, political, psychological, and li
16、terary terms. Also because of that, her writings were influenced by her experiences greatly. It is not easy to understand why Doris Lessing became such a formidable presence among contemporary novelists. She is often a clumsy writer. Her early novels and stories, despite their exotic setting in Sout
17、hern Rhodesia, were conventional accounts of growing up in a racist society, and rebelling against the constrictions of family and class.( Pearl K. Bell, 1985:47-50) When Love, again was firstly published, she was already 76 years old. During this time, she has gone through too much, and she has mor
18、e deep thought about the life, love pursue. In this period, as an old woman, she cared more about the real life. Before this time, she has already reached very high achievement. So for her, the problem of this time is how to enjoy a better life when her old age came nearer. Love, Again mainly tells
19、the story about a 65-year-old woman who falls in love and struggles to maintain her sanity. Widowed for many years, with grown children, Sarah is a writer who works in the theater in London. During the production of a play, she falls in love with a seductive young actor, the beautiful and androgynou
20、s 28-year-old Bill, and then with the more mature 35-year-old director Henry. Finding herself in a state of longing and desire that she had thought was the province of younger women, Sarah is compelled to explore and examine her own personal history of love, from her earliest childhood desires to he
21、r most recent obsessions. The result is a brilliant anatomy of love from a master of human psychology who remains as one of the most daring writers of fiction at work today.In the work love, again, the heroine is a special woman who is vivid and real .Her living style is totally different. As an old
22、 aged woman, she is still attractive for her nous and wisdom. She likes logical thinking and careful calculating. And she is good at foreseeing. With those precious aspects, she is a successful woman in other peoples eyes. Lessing described such a successful woman to us. In the work, Lessing used sp
23、lendid dialogues and psychological description and environment portray to mold the heroine. Lessing wants us to know that the heroine is real and she is just among us. The writer shows us a wise woman in her own special way. The writer write like this. And it can arouse our readers strong feelings t
24、o the heroine. We can sing and dance together with her. We feel happy when the heroine is happy .And we can also feel sad when she is sad.This paper intends to do some analysis on the heroine. Chapter one is a general introduction, chapter two summarizes the characteristic of the heroine, and find o
25、ut sentences and paragraphs that can be found to support the idea. Chapter three does some careful research about the writers life and background, and compare two other works with Love, again. In the end comes a natural conclusion: the heroine of this book is wise, careful and attractive.2. The hero
26、ines characteristics in the novel and the evidences 2.1 The heroines characteristics in the novel2.1.1 The heroines positive viewpoint to old age In the novel, the leading character Sarah was a woman in 60. Although she is no longer young, she is still full of hope. She is still strongly longing for
27、 love, though she already marched into the old age. Though she is older now, her graceful bearing still saves. She is just like a chrysanthemum which is blooming alone. From the book, we may see Sarah was still an attractive woman whose stature was exquisite. The other people often suppose she is ju
28、st 40 years old. Compared with women in the same age, she is self-confidence and reasonable. Her husbands death left her to experience a sad period. But afterward, she went through. And then she stood up. And She walked with incomparably graceful steps to move toward the old age. And in her heart, g
29、etting older is the rule of everyones life. The old age is not fearful. Senile is also not such a terror what all people thought as. She may summarize the life optimistic to an old woman. Obviously, we called that Sarah was a granny, only for her old age. Her point of view is not old, so was her sem
30、blance. However, in her viewpoint, love was quite implicit. She tells that she has not experienced love for 20 years. She even believes that she would not fell deeply in love. She remains as a widow for those many years. Though in her innermost, she is still anxious for love. As an old woman, she ne
31、ver doubt a lot. She has her own desire, her own feeling for being old. May the other old woman may think : if they are old, they will possibly lost a lot. They may never wear make up themselves. They may be afraid of wearing colorful clothes. They will be shy when facing love. Most of them must wil
32、l avoid talking and thinking about love. But Sarah will do all this. She knows she is no longer young. But she thinks she has the right to live a better old life. She is active in her old age.2.1.2 Her brave heart when facing the disaster The war financial problem occurring, and her husband died, wh
33、ich are all huge tribulation to her. In order to provide for the child and maintain her own life, she had to become a strong female. Day and night, she writes for the newspaper, works in the publishing house, works for the theatrical troupe, and also works as an extremely low free-lance writer. We m
34、ay say that the life was not easy when she was young. However, she was always living stubbornly.Stephen was Sarahs good friend. She cares much on him. Stephen is also another writer of this play. In Sarahs view, the friendship is also a very important aspect. This is also an onus manifestation of Sa
35、rah. She paid much attention on her friend Stephen. She communicated with him, and supported him mutually. Stephens love view compared with Saras was long lasting though frail. Stephen was infatuated with Julie Varian when he started to create this play. Therefore, he then infatuated with the leadin
36、g lady (Molly) who acted Julie. Molly was similar with Julie, and both were beautiful. Stephens frantic pursue has not obtained the proper repayment. In his life, he did not have emotion with his wife. Afterward he discovered that his wife had the homosexuality tendency. At the same time, he was giv
37、en the rejection from Molly. This time, Stephens spirit broke down. He lost the courage to live on. Finally and sadly, he chose the suicide, and left this world. Comparatively, Sarah must be much braver. If she is as weak as Stephen, then perhaps when her husband died ,she must have committed suicid
38、e. However, as a woman she is much braver than a man. She stays with the misery in life. She tries hard to be strong enough to live on. She never bends down to the uneasy life.2.1.3Her young heart to life and loveWhen she prepared the play Julie Varian, She was moved by Julie Varian deeply. She appr
39、eciated Julies talent and Julies will to pursue love. But she has more sympathy to Julie. In the novel, the writer express in the following words “She (Sarah) is strongly conquered by Julie. Not only she has been conquered by Julie, the entire messenger bird theatrical troupe was conquered by Julie.
40、” Sarah was a woman full of the following quality: she has responsibility; she is good at reasoning thinking; she has maturity.In the play, Julie has fallen in love with Paulo, Ramey successively. However, at last she became the leading role of the tragedy. Sarah did not want to be similar to Julie
41、in love, because she understood the restraint. When they rehearsed the play, Director Henry, actor Bill and Andrew, were all attracted by Sarahs onus charm in abundance. And they were all unable to avoid falling in love with her. In Sarahs eye, Bill was abundant and vital. He is like the bright sunl
42、ight. From the very beginning Sarah also thought that she might fall in love with this young people. Bill wrote a hot loving letter to her. Sarah was deeply shocked by this. It showed that Bill was attracted by her fantasy. But then she urged herself not to hold this idea in the mind. Because from t
43、he very beginning, when she saw Bill and Molly. When she see them hugging each other in one scene. And when Sarah hears other girls say that Bill was the most handsome guy under the camera. She suddenly felt not happy, and deeply lost. She started to think Molly may have fallen in love with Bill. Ac
44、tually, Sarahs feeling to Bill showed that she was still a woman hoping for love. Though getting old, she had positive view to life. She still longed for love and longed for the youth and vigor.2.1.4 The wisdom showed by her in choosing loveAndrew was a sincere young man. He always fell in love with
45、 women who are nearly to be his mother. Andrew wrote an anonymous letter to Sarah, in order to express his hot feeling to Sarah. But Sarah has not placed him on her heart. Sarah knew him well. Actually, Andrew can not to be with her for a long-time just in the same place. Andrews individuality has d
46、ecided this point. That is to say, when Andrew is tired or familiar with her, he will leave. Farsighted Sarah saw all these very clearly, so she did not consider about her and Andrew. But as a woman, she still felt happy for Andrews expression. But she knew clearly she did not fall in love with him.
47、 And she has not crashed into Andrews snares of love. Speaking of Sarah, love has more sincerity than impulsion. Sarah was sagacious and farsighted. She used her special actions and thinking to show the world a fine old lady.2.1.5 The maturity and desire in her innermost worldHenry was the director of this play, he also prostrated him
