Before introducing the "The Ruined Maid", I will explain Thomas Hardy briefly. Thomas Hardy, English poet and regional novelist, whose works depict the county "Wessex", named after the ancient kingdom of Alfred the Great. Hardy`s career as writer spanned over fifty years. His earliest books appeared when Anthony Trollope (1815-82) wrote his Palliser series, and he published poetry in the decade of T.S. Eliot`s The Waste Land. Hardy`s work reflected his stoical pessimism and sense of tragedy in human life. Now, I`ll explain "The Ruined Maid"

“The Ruined Maid” is composed of two women’s dialogue. They come from same village. One is still living in hometown and doing farm work. The other, Melia, came to town. Melia is described as ruined maid. But the country woman envies Melia. And Melia feels superiority. Ruin is bad thing, but two women don’t recognize ruin as negative. Instead, ruin is regarded as ideal. This reverse situation satirizes society.
