The call of the wild
At the beginning of this century, many new writers emerged with the introduction of many new ideas. Among them, Jack London was the most popular one.
His most famous novel is the call of the wild . Although it is a story about a dog, Buck, it vividly depicts the life in the primitive North where people rushed for gold and fortune.
Buck, used to belong to a judge, was kidnapped and sold to North. Then he became a member of a dog-team pulling a sled . In the days of pulling a snow-sled, he learned to conform to the law of nature and obey the master. Finally, he found a basic instinct hidden inside him, which enabled himself to survive the tough environment. This is the call of the wild.
When you read the story, you will feel that Buck is a man instead of a dog, struggling with his fortune and conforming to the law of nature.
Though short, it is really a thrilling story. What you never forget is the tough life in the nature, the brave and crafty dog. Maybe the wild is calling you to go ahead.
While writing for only 16 years throughout his life, London produced an amazing body of work among which, White Fang, Martin Eden, the Valley of the Moon are representative.
读《野性的呼唤》有感
《野性的呼唤》是美国作家杰克-伦敦的小说。故事主要叙述一只强壮勇猛的狼狗巴克从人类文明社会回到狼群原始生活的过程。
《野狼的呼唤》虽然说是一部小说,但读了它以后给我的感想很深刻。也许有些人读了没什么感觉,甚至有些人很可能会说“没意思”,当然,每个人看问题的角度不一样嘛。这个故事的大略的内容情节如下:
巴克是一条体重140磅的十分强壮的狗。他本来在一个大-法官家里过着由于的生活,后来被法官的园丁偷走,辗转卖给邮局,又被送到阿拉斯加严寒地区拉运送邮件的雪橇。巴克最初被卖给两个法裔加拿大人。这些被买来的狗不仅受到了人类的冷酷略待,而且在狗之间为了振铎勾裙的领导权么无时不在互相争斗、残杀.由于体力超群、机智勇敢,巴克最终打败斯比茨成为狗的领队狗。他先后换过几个主人,作后被约瀚-索顿收留。那是在巴克被残暴的住人哈尔打得遍体鳞伤,奄奄一息时,索顿救了他,并悉心为他疗伤。在索顿的精心互利下巴克恢复得很快. 一条狗!不!一条狼……又回到那n久前的嚎叫,祖先原始的野性在他身上重生!
我从没有看到过哪个人或哪样东西有他如此毅力和精神!面对没有末日的北地跋涉,随处又都是末日!一路上打败了身边的对手……一条狗却表现出与众不同的喜悦和滴着野性的露水的笑容。
对生命如此执着的追求!那还是只狗吗?分明是人嘛!正是对生命内在的呼唤激发了他的潜能,他成为“莫尔人”的图腾!真的成就拉狗历史上不灭的传说!
但是回到社会现实来说,就象爱情“只有有了生活,爱才有所附丽!”。把狗放到现实社会中,我想才是著名作家的心声,这样杰克.伦敦的作品才有了新的生命力,是把?正如这条狗逐渐演变成狼的过程不正是过去社会工人或贫苦大众亦或当今社会的真实写照吗?旧社会非人的生活,当今的煤矿工人;旧社会的强权专制,当今的媒体封杀。
In jack London, wrote the book-the call of the wild, I went into a dog in the world. This dog called buck, is a the saint Bernard dogs and Scottish collies hybrids. The difference is, buck is not full of human fantasy mythology dog, also not be thrust deep into the human society as a friend of the role of dogs, but in the north to the life of the snow, deeds shocked readers mind dog.
Buck from the life of a judge in the south at home, where the buck enjoy clover, universal respect and take full weight status, but for all mankind in the north to find a yellow metal and change.
Aristocratic breath with the buck suffered first impolite treatment, it was sold to a abducted in red wool unlined upper garment guy there. And then a big meal and hilarious, once again played it unconscious. From then on buck understand that a truth: in that big stick with the man he is no hope. I want to stick is a key, a let buck understand the original nature of the key, let it learning to the law of the jungle of the original ruling law, but also let the body hidden in buck wild gradually awaken.
If the big stick is a key, then buck companion is professor of this course of text. Buck was again trade. It has joined a sled team, and from the structure companions so many of the way of existence.
The dog park church it how to steal food consoles going. In fact buck is don't like stealing, in order to eat satisfied he is not stolen. From the dog Billy there, buck soon learned how to break the ice in the snow kap shui skills such as thirst. Here I want to mention a dog's, horse, because from its body, buck "learning" a lot, let the buck in hazy remembered the original of the killing.
Horse is sled team, at the top dog, also is the leader. It buck as potential opponents, always provocative find fault, the surface is gentle, real ferocity. At first, for horse watts, buck always everywhere tolerance, try to avoid direct conflict. On one hand, to learn from them, on the other hand the instinct of the body with the provocative again from the dead. Finally the ancestors of gritting teeth, wolves tearing and the type of assault on it warmed up, put a horse down, watts.
Once the feral awaken, that comes from the depths of the forest will always cry entice buck, that is a desolate weird, call a person spooky cadence, but buck but very happy to follow to whine. The original animal tough habit on it more intense, in a hunting, buck taste that bloodthirsty and the desire of for killing a happy...... Finally became king of the Wolf.
The human society there are competition and humans have the spirit of the up is a kind of old haggard reflect it. Wild, is it brought conquer all things desire and brutality. Like buck, when all the facts are in the world only to tell it conquerors and be the conqueror, from the depths of the nature of the unyielding spirit is aroused, because it knows all this is the value of life.
In today's highly competitive society, the outcome is in a flash, causes the human can't a little breathing and hesitation, facing the crisis only brave accept, and finally conquer......
But haggard is not only to cruel, it also brought old friendship, can saying is the crystallization of civilization and old. When buck finally a host John died, he look to the heavens, a long growl. This is the worn-out sad, is loyal, is astonishing. Buck was John thick love wild is another way of.
So I want to say life is MAO dun's, the world is complex, but this complex world it is natural the simplest method made. Let the world is full of vitality, is it, but at the same time, the world push into the hell of it-is vice versa wild. It has a cunning, also have loyalty; It brings savage, also it with friendship. Ok, this is real life, colorful and bright, the endless.
