Differences between Sexes in Perception of Love and Marriage: An Analysis of Relationship between Gabriel and Bathsheba in Far from the Madding Crowd
- Introduction
Thomas Hardy, (2 June 1840 – 11 January 1928) was an English novelist and poet whose life spanned two centuries. Hardy started literature writing in 1862. Hardy’s first novel was The Desperate Remedies in 1874, while his first successful novel was his fourth novel Far from the Madding Crowd in 1874. The quick and great success encouraged Hardy to concentrate on writing fiction. Hardy wrote about 20 novels during his life. The well-known ones were the Wessex novels and “novels of character and environment”, such as The Mayor of Casterbridge (1886), The Return of the Native (1878), Tess of the d‘Urbervilles (1891) and Jude the Obscure (1895). Hardy’s works were influenced by Romanticism and Realism. His writing was full of sympathy for rural people in Britain. Hardy described the great changes of politics, economy and conventions in English rural towns after the invasion of capitalism. The novels reflected the conflicts between people and the environment. Hardy showed his deep concern for England’s lower classes, particularly for women. He focused on their religious beliefs, personality, education and marriage, and he often portrayed individual females who had independent personality and had the courage to fight against their unfair fate, but in the end, who usually failed to defeat the society and environment. Hardy showed in his novels his perception of capitalism, Industrial Revolution, love and marriage and so on.
Far from the Madding Crowd was the breakthrough in Hardy’s writing career. Like the rest of his fictional works, the novel presented Hardy’s concern for individual women, the conflict between people and environment, love and marriage, capitalism and feminism. The novel told a series of ill-fated love stories between beautiful, headstrong girl Bathsheba Everdene and her three quite different suitors: the honest, hard-working shepherd Gabriel Oak, young and handsome soldier, Francis Troy, and the wealthy, but stubborn middle-aged farmer Boldwood. Those characters all had their own perception of love and marriage. After a series of unfortunate incidents, at last, Bathsheba, the woman who hated the institution of marriage in Victorian England, married Gabriel, the hard-working, reserved shepherd, giving the story a seemingly happy ending.
