(2019·陕西省部分学校摸底检测)Thomas Hardy, probably the most searching and knowledgeable novelist of his time, was born on June 2, 1840, in Dorsetshire, England. He died on January 11, 1928. In his youth, Hardy read much and dreamt of becoming a poet, but he studied and practiced architecture as an assistant to a London architect, winning a prize for design. The fine descriptions of structure in his novels were probably somewhat due to his architectural training.
For five years Hardy worked hard to practice writing poetry, but when he was twentyseven, he turned to fiction. His first novel finished by 1867, but according to the advice of George Meredith he decided not to publish it. After he abandoned his first novel, his another novel DesperateRemedies, appeared in 1871. During the next twentyfive years he published ten more novels and two collections of short stories.
UndertheGreenwoodTree (1872) was never surpassed (超越) in happy and delicate perfection of art. This and his next novel, APairofBlueEyes (1873), began to show deep irony (讽刺) which is so obvious throughout Hardy's writings.
FarfromtheMaddingCrowd (1874) was his first popular success. It shows Hardy's amazing power of describing nature as symbolic background for his characters, an organic part of the action of his story. This was the earliest of what he called his novels of character and environment, which included TheReturnoftheNative, Tessofthed'Urbervilles, his masterpiece, and JudetheObscure. Not until he was fiftyeight years old was his first collection of poems published, and he was sixtyfour when the first part of his drama TheDynasts surprised the literary world.
