Abstract
Thomas Hardy, one of the nineteenth century English novelists, developed his understanding of tragedy in his successive writing of novels. As his last novel, Jude the Obscure launches a pungent criticism of the society by describing the fact that all of the Jude's ambitions are made unfulfilled by various social institutions. Hardy's merciless criticism and positive description of Jude's relationship with Sue meet a fierce critical attack from the defenders of the Victorian society and its moral standard. The paper intends to prove that Jude the Obscure is a social tragedy.关键词
