The most famous prostitute in the history of literature, la Traviata: even more terrifying than prostitution is the moral 0102030405060708 of hypocrisy

Li Yundi was caught prostituting, and for a while there was a lot of commotion, and Li Yundi stinked, but the matter was not over.

The matter of prostitution is said in the dark, and it is human nature that is tortured, and when it is taken to the surface, it is human morality that is tortured.

Once moral torture begins, immorality is everywhere.

This has to be reminiscent of the most famous prostitute in the history of literature, the La Traviata, and her story, which is more terrible than prostitution, is the hypocritical morality.

There is no doubt that Margaret was a prostitute, she was an avid camellia, and for twenty-five days of the month she would carry white camellias, and the other five days she would change into red camellias, hence the name Traviata.

She sold her flesh and lived a life of luxury, interceding with men.

Indeed, such a woman, in the eyes of many people, is morally corrupt, that is, not to face, but the writer Dumas still chose to make her suffering process public, so there is this story - "La Traviata".

"If it is felt that it is better to remain silent than to make the suffering of these women public, then it is a shameful act for them to be convicted without questioning and to be flouted without conviction."

The young and beautiful Margaret, who is unique in the prostitute industry, the men who haunt her are either rich or expensive, generous, and they occupy Margaret while maintaining her luxurious life.

Some men lost their homes because of her, and many secretly complained that they were not rich and did not have the opportunity to get close to her.

Everything went according to plan, until one day, a man named Armand appeared in her life, and the trajectory of fate began to change.

When Armand first met Margaret, she wore a long white lace-triumvirate dress, an exotic Indian square scarf, an Italian straw hat, and a chic bracelet on her wrist.

As soon as she arrived, she caused a commotion in the crowd in the store, and the praise came and went, she was so beautiful.

Armand watched in a daze, barely shed three pounds of saliva.

At first sight, he fell in love with the girl.

At a big show, Armand meets Margaret again, and through the introduction of a friend, he knows Margaret and knows that she is a prostitute.

The two were not happy at that meeting, Armand was nervous and blushed and his neck was thick, but Margaret, out of professional habits, taunted Armand.

In the prostitute industry, they like to play pranks and tease the people they meet for the first time, because they themselves have to endure the insults of those who meet them every day, and her taunts are obviously a form of revenge.

Armand felt insulted, but also felt that he had looked at the wrong person and paid the wrong love, because Margaret was no different from other women.

However, the more I want to forget, the more I can't forget.

Armand decided to possess Margaret, even if he was ruined and discredited.

She secretly paid attention to the Traviata, even if it was just to look at her from a distance, and Armand was pleased, but soon after, Margaret, because of the indulgence of life, had a recurrence of lung disease and lay dying in bed.

Armand inquired about her condition every day until Margaret left Paris for recuperation in a distant place.

Time washes away a lot of memories, even love, and Armand feels the same way.

However, some love does not disappear with time, it is only like a glass of wine, more and more flavorful, in order to meet the needs of the soul, we need to go through a lot, and make up a lot of excuses.

Two years later, Armand saw Margaret again in the theater.

At this time, Margaret lived under the supervision of an old duke, who was old but rich, and because Margaret was very similar to the duke's daughter who died of illness, the duke treated her as a daughter, and even as long as Margaret "changed her past", he was willing to give her everything she wanted.

However, this girl, who was accustomed to debauchery, singing night and night, and indulging in eroticism, could not live the monotonous life that the Duke demanded, and once she returned to Paris, she secretly engaged in the business of prostitutes behind the Duke's back and associated with various men.

Seeing Margaret again, those silent loves suddenly came alive, and Armand was no longer the silly boy of the past, but an old man.

Knowing what Armand had done during her illness, Margaret also changed her attitude and looked up at Armand.

During the conversation, Armand could no longer hide his affection, he said: "I want to be your friend, your relative, I will not let you abuse yourself like this again." ”

He confessed affectionately that he would take care of Margaret and be by her side every day.

This affection touched Margaret, who accepted it, but she was also worried that if the Duke knew about it, the Duke would leave her alone and let herself perish.

Love is salvation and hell.

Love is also selfish, when Armand saw Margaret and Count G meet, he was still jealous and crazy, and under the torture of jealousy, Armand, who lacked trust in Margaret, wrote a parting letter to stimulate Margaret, but Armand waited for Margaret's reply.

It was later learned that Margaret spent more than a hundred thousand francs a year, and thus owed a huge debt, Armand did not have much money to pay her expenses, and she associated with Count G because Count G gave her a lot of money.

Margaret is also in love with Armand, and she feels that Armand loves her only because he loves her, while others love her for the sake of satisfying their own vanity, and in their view, prostitutes are not people, but playthings.

Eventually, Margaret risked being abandoned by the Duke for Armand's sake and went to the countryside together.

In the countryside, they lived a sweet and beautiful life, but the Duke still found Margaret's lover Armand, and if Margaret did not leave Armand, he would not give her any more money.

Margaret's choice was to prefer not to have money than to be with Armand.

"I used to have a dog, and when I coughed, it would look at me with a sad look, and it became the only animal I ever loved."

There are not many beautiful things in the world, and the true heart of the lover is the same.

Armand used her true heart to make herself the person Margaret loved deeply, she rejected other men, only Belonged to Armand, and she wanted to say goodbye to her past life.

But in order to pay off the debt, she had no financial resources and had to sell things.

Love is the need of the soul, money is the need of life, the need of the soul has nothing to do with money, but sometimes people have to pay the price of money for the soul.

When people have no love, they are satisfied with vanity, and once they have love, vanity becomes worthless.

At this time, Margaret, who had to pay for her past life, wanted to go to Italy with Armand, live in a place that no one knew, and start over.

But Armand did not want to, he did not believe that Marguerite could live that kind of life, this was the vanity in Armand's heart, and it was also his distrust of the Traviata.

Love has always been facing tests, but the biggest test often comes from the people around him, the appearance of Armand's father, which completely shattered Margaret's dream of love.

His father intervened forcefully and demanded that Armand leave Margaret, because he felt that the bitch was ruthless and unjust, that a woman like Margaret could not have pure love, and that the family's glory could not be tarnished.

In order to separate them, the father even took advantage of Armand's absence to see Margaret alone, he stood on the moral high ground, pointing out the country, and the Traviata naturally tried her best to defend herself, proving that she did not spend a penny more on Armand, and even took out the bill for her own pawn.

Another plan, another plan, the father said that Armand's sister was preparing to marry a decent prince, and if Armand did not break off relations with Margaret, this happy marriage would be a failure.

Rather destroy ten temples and not demolish a marriage, Margaret has no way, she can not compromise, but Armand in the middle should be more difficult, he will become a sinner who tarnishes the honor of the family, and he will also become a sinner who destroys his sister's happiness.

In the end, she chose to give in, she had to give in, because she was a prostitute, so even if she had the most sincere feelings, it was not as good as the happiness of others, and she was not worthy of happiness.

Margaret was gone, and the poor woman, without saying anything, became another man's lover again.

She gave Armand a letter:

The woman who lost her foot was Margaret, and she once loved you with all her heart.

Now she had only one wish, and that was to end her miserable life early.

Armand felt that Margaret was a prostitute after all, unable to escape the temptation of money, so she chose to leave.

Everything starts all over again, but nothing can start all over again. Margaret couldn't go back, and Armand couldn't have acted when nothing happened.

Without love, Margaret had no hope, she was more indulgent than before, and her health was getting worse and worse.

Armand, who was disappointed in Margaret, tried to get revenge by humiliating Margaret and hurting Margaret, but Margaret never explained.

Until the body collapsed, no one cared about her anymore, she seemed to be abandoned by the world, and the men who had revolved around her before, no one cared about her.

During her illness, she kept writing letters to Armand to tell him the truth.

But until she died, she never saw the last side of her lover.

Prostitutes are an ancient profession, but prostitutes exist in this world because of men, and prostitutes are not born prostitutes, but artificial prostitutes.

The author, Alexandre Dumas Jr., said:

I am not preaching obscenity and ugliness, but whenever and wherever I hear this noble suffering person praying, I preach it for him.

Margaret is only an unfortunate woman, but this woman is far more admirable than the "decent gentlemen" who embrace hypocritical morality.

In the history of Chinese literature, there are also several admirable prostitutes:

Du Liniang, who was angry and sinking the treasure chest, and Li Xiangjun in the peach blossom fan, they were women who had lost their feet, but they had sincerely loved and lived sincerely.

I believe that no one wants to sell money with their bodies, that they are not born to become prostitutes or prostitutes, just as pigs are not born to give food to others.

Whoever says that a pig was born to be fed is either ignorant or crazy.

I will always remember in "Camel Shoko", the woman who had to sell her body in order to survive her two younger brothers, Xiao Fuzi, what could she do? Did you watch your two younger brothers starve to death? But after she became a prostitute, people did not see her nobility, but only accused her of misfortune.

I think that it is shameful for Xiaofuzi to sell his body, but those who blame him without knowing the truth are even more terrible, they use hypocritical morality to evaluate others, but looking at the misfortunes of others, they are indifferent, and no one has reached out to help, otherwise Xiaofuzi will not die.

If their morality is as noble as when they curse others, then they should help the desperate little blessing a little.

Many things may not have to rise to the height of morality, they comment at will, just because their souls are empty, not to say that other people's unfortunate lives are tasteless, and they have to say that others have no place to be happy, but this is even more hateful.

Many tragedies in the human world are often because there is a group of people who are not too big to watch the hilarity, and some people die by spitting on the people who watch the hilarity.

Among the Traviata, Armand's father seems to be morally noble, noble enough to insult prostitutes at will, but in fact, he is selfish and despicable, in order to achieve his own ends, unscrupulous, doing despicable things is not counted, but also to stand on the moral high ground to punish others.

This is the hypocrisy, this is hypocrisy.

This kind of morality is very immoral.

Moral evaluation is simply too easy to do, and it is invincible in itself, and there is no possibility of failure.

Some people see others losing their feet, they seize on the matter of losing their feet, and trample others to death fiercely, and there is no room for resistance, no defense, and whoever defends it is a crime plus a first degree, that is moral corruption.

So most people will evaluate morality, but only a few people will reflect and grow.

There is a story in the West that I find very touching, Jesus' disciples once caught a prostitute, they took this woman to Jesus, asked him to be executed, Jesus looked at the prostitute, and then looked at his disciples, and he said, "Whoever of you has not committed a crime can throw a stone at him."

Everyone was silent, and finally no one threw a stone at the prostitute, but walked away silently.

This story often touched me, not for prostitutes, no matter what the hardships, being a prostitute is always bad, and it should be learned, I was touched by the disciples of Jesus, they were very honest, and they had the ability to reflect.

Reflection should be the most important enlightenment of tragedy, not to become people's talking points, but to enlighten people's noble emotions.

People with high moral requirements often see their own shortcomings in the tragedies of others, even if he does not go to prostitution, but once had a thought to prostitute, that is, for him, it is also a place that needs to be changed.

Because with that one thought, as long as there is another appropriate time, I am afraid that I will inevitably have to go to prostitution.

Zeng Guofan had a lot of bad tempers before he became a saint, but he was a strong person, starting from bad thoughts in his heart, he was the same personality, and finally became a saint in the eyes of others.

For example, at the beginning of the grid, he wanted to save heavenly reason and go to human desires as Zhu Xi said, so if it was hot at noon, and he saw his wife and couldn't help but think of the affairs of men and women, he would slap himself a few times, and then shut himself in the room to continue.

True morality should be used to demand oneself, not to demand others, and once morality becomes a requirement for others, whether it is moral is worth thinking about.

Speaking of the recent incident of Li Yundi, an ugly thing, it has made a lot of noise.

In this way, it is better to kill chickens and scare monkeys, and the effect of taking warning is even better.

However, don't be a hilarious person who has finished watching and didn't expect anything, there are many despicable things in human nature, which are not much better than prostitution, and once those things have a practical environment, they may become even uglier things.

Therefore, when you see other people's jokes, you still aim at yourself to see if you have something to pay attention to, otherwise, you will become a fake model, pointing out other people's rivers and mountains with your mouth, and your actions are worse than others.

"La Traviata" is Dumas's indictment of hypocrisy and morality, and the story in this book has also been staged in Dumas.

As soon as "La Traviata" was published, it caused a sensation in the French literary scene.

I think that if gossip becomes popular, it shows the emptiness of the human heart that needs to be filled with gossip.

But if something serious becomes popular, it means that it is the need of the spirit, the human spirit, that desires salvation.

Now, serious things are closed behind closed doors, and the gossip of celebrities is well known, which just shows that the emptiness of people's hearts is not an individual, but universal.
