Sense and Sensibility, Chapter 8: riassunto
Chapter 8 di 50 · 5 min per leggere: chapter
In Chapter 8, Mrs. Jennings identifies Colonel Brandon as Marianne Dashwood’s admirer, prompting a family argument about age, illness, and the possibility of love beyond youth. Marianne then treats Edward Ferrars’s absence as evidence of illness and questions why Elinor shows so little distress over their separation.
Cosa succede
- Mrs. Jennings takes Colonel Brandon’s attention to Marianne’s singing as proof of love and teases them both.
- Marianne considers the proposed attachment absurd because she regards Colonel Brandon as too old for love.
- Mrs. Dashwood and Elinor challenge Marianne’s judgments about age, marriage, and his rheumatic shoulder.
- After Elinor leaves, Marianne suggests that illness must explain Edward Ferrars’s failure to visit.
- Mrs. Dashwood doubts that Elinor expects him soon, while Marianne finds the pair’s restrained behavior puzzling.
