In Chapter 3, Pierre accepts Willarski’s offer to enter the Freemasons and submits to preparations for initiation, hoping to begin a virtuous life. Smolyanínov explains the Order’s aims and tests his obedience, while Pierre eagerly imagines improving humanity and assumes that most of his own faults are already cured.
Qué sucede
- In Petersburg, Pierre reads Thomas à Kempis and finds joy in the possibility of moral perfection and brotherly love.
- Willarski offers to sponsor Pierre, confirms his belief in God, and takes him to the Lodge.
- Left blindfolded and alone, Pierre feels fear and hope before discovering a Gospel, a skull, and a coffin containing bones.
- Smolyanínov explains the Order’s aims and virtues; Pierre feels most drawn to improving humanity.
- Pierre surrenders his valuables, partly undresses as instructed, and names women as his chief passion.
- Smolyanínov blindfolds Pierre again and urges him to seek happiness within rather than through passion.
