The Analysis of the Tragic Tess――the Spirit of Revolt(三) characteristic of the landlord class but also reflect the essential characteristic of the capitalist class. Tess disdain to Alec, she is surrender to Alec, she isn’t marry to Alec as her mother ask for her, she says： "Perhaps any woman will, but I exception. "( Thomas Hardy, Tess of the d'Urbervilles (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1989), p.52) This prove that Tess resist with moribund social evil force. She wouldn’t wait impatiently to save herself from society fully, she would rather rely on her own efforts to be impractical on evil force under the foot. Beg that gives alms. When Alec requires Tess stay at his side, Tess responds him firmly. "Never, never! I made up my mind as soon as I saw--what I ought to have seen sooner, and I won't come."(Thomas Hardy, p.56) This sees Tess’s revolt spirit to evil resolution and force compromises too. Though Tess can escape from inferior devil's clutches of Alec finally, come back to his side, it is under the pressure of the helplessness too, it is low and excessive to the evil force in one quarter that she does not have. Until the fact that Angel come back, Tess break out finally, “ And my sin will kill him and not kill me! ... O, you have torn my life all to pieces ... made me be what I prayed you in pity not to make me be again! ... My own true husband will never, never--O God--I can't bear this! -- I cannot!”(Thomas Hardy, p.200) .She has lifted the knife, killed Alec, as the severe reaction unjust to this society. Even if she has accepted the judgment of the death, she is quiet leaving finally, because she got the fairness of her heart at last, got the balance. She fought back to bring to her unfortunately, cause the tragic moribund society. Alec utilizes money and strength of power, makes Tess in condition that have nowhere to live, in the hope of Controlling Tess, though Tess has been made resisted, Alec is regarded as representatives of the evil force, but receive the protection of the state apparatus of capitalist class, so has led to the tragedy finally, and Tess always resist, rely on her strength alone, at all unable to contend with their. It takes only to be effective method directly most as for her too only --kill Alec to reach to the moribund resistance and accusation of society to come.    The second, the resistance of the traditional moral concept.    In the 19th century in England, Combination because of love, will not break away from the relation with women's chastity at all times. The deep-rooted control women firmly of chastity idea and guiding man, as regards social system, this is already becoming naturally, however, whether to judge a woman's purity or not with the traditional chastity view. This kind of phenomenon still dominates in numerous male thoughts, though they threaten to break the traditional chastity view and get married for love on the surface.

So they will attempt to resist gradually.    Angel, husband of Tess, is one of the representatives of traditional moral concepts, being even the main reason that causes Tess’s tragedy, and having traditional ethical prejudice on him. He is in the contacts course of Tess, there is no constraint of abandoning the traditional idea all the time. In his eyes, Tess is “what a fresh and pure daughter of nature that dairymaid is!”(Thomas Hardy, p.100) holy and pure, but Tess is to her honest experience abused on the past at the newly married night, because of his traditional moral concept, he has not forgiven Tess, as Tess did forgive his dissolute behavior.
