In novels Jude the Obscure (JO.), Hardy attaches much weight to the theme of love and marriage which runs through his writing career. For him, love has the position that is as important as life, or even higher than life. Love’s dignified power is almost like religion that cannot be invaded. For Hardy, who is sensitive and full of tragic consciousness, the life realization is not only about the sorrow for the illness, pain, age, and death in this world, the more is about the joys and sorrows, partings and reunions of love and about misery of distorted and intolerable love.
