Middlemarch: resumen de Chapter 50
Chapter 50 de 88 · Book 5: The Dead Hand · 17 min para leer el chapter
In Chapter 50, Dorothea learns that Casaubon’s codicil removes her inheritance if she marries Will Ladislaw, changing her feelings toward both men and complicating her wish to help Will. She searches Lowick without finding a personal explanation from her husband, then considers Lydgate’s recommendation of Farebrother for the vacant living.
