Analysis of the character image of Gao Laotou?

Gao Laotou is a microcosm of the historical tragedy that feudal patriarchal ideology was defeated by the bourgeois moral principle of money first. The hero of the novel, Gao Laotou, shows readers a special kind of fatherly love. He regards his daughter as an angel and is willing to sacrifice himself to satisfy their extravagant hopes.

Father's love for Gao Laotou is not simple, but with the complexity of class. His father's love is intertwined with feudal male chauvinism and bourgeois money law. Starting from the feudal patriarchal ethics, he believed that the love between father and daughter was natural and "fatherhood" was the axis of family and society.

But with the vanity of climbing up, he regards "love" for his daughter as a precious way to climb up and raise his status. As a result, the original noble feelings became vulgar and filthy. The tragedy of Gao Laotou's fatherly love is not only the inevitable result of personality development, but also the inevitable product of the times.

Content introduction:

Rasty Nie, a poor college student with a conscience, the son of a ruined aristocrat from other provinces, came to Paris to find a personal way out and found a distant relative, Viscount Busion. The shabby penthouse apartment he lives in is in stark contrast to the luxury of high-class social places.

This strongly stimulated his desire to get ahead. At the ball, he met a lady, Countess Reston. When he attacked the lady, he was turned away because he accidentally mentioned her father, the old man Gaulio.

He asked Viscount Busion for advice, and she told him, "If you want to succeed, you must deal with this society with blows with blows. The more heartless, the higher the rise ... ". She instigated Rasty Nie to pursue Gao Laotou's little daughter, the wife of banker Newchingen.

During the Great Revolution, Lao Gaoman made a fortune by hoarding flour. He loved his two daughters very much and gave them a large dowry, which enabled them to get a good marriage, and he was drained by his daughter in a dilapidated apartment. This taught Rasty the first lesson in life.

In the apartment, his neighbor and fugitive Votoring warned him: "In this crowd, if you don't bomb, you have to go in like a plague." It's useless to be naive and honest ... "... Fortolen asked him to seduce Miss Tai Caliso, and then sent someone to kill Miss Tai Caliso's brother, thus gaining a large inheritance. Although Rasty's conscience still exists, he abandoned it, but this is the second lesson in his life.

What happened next completed Rasty's social journey: Mi Xunuo, an old resident girl in the apartment, sold Fortolen for a prize of 3,000 francs, Marquis Alku abandoned Madame Busayoun for an interest of 200,000 francs, Neuxingen embezzled his wife's property, and the eldest daughter came to see the old man for the scenery at the dance, but turned away regardless of dizziness after getting the ticket.

Later, I turned around, just because Lao Gaoman didn't sign the bill. On his deathbed and the whole funeral, his two daughters didn't come to see him, only Rasty Nie and his servant Christopher attended the funeral held in his honor. At the end of the day, the lights on both sides of the Seine River are long. Rasty Nie buried the last tear of his young man and went to Mrs. Newchin's house for dinner.
