Candide, Chapter 11: samenvatting
Chapter 11 van 30 · 5 min om chapter te lezen
In Chapter 11, the old woman reveals her royal upbringing and recounts how her fiancé’s sudden death leads to a voyage, capture, and enslavement in Morocco. Her account replaces her listeners’ picture of a servant with a history of privilege destroyed by sexual violence and slaughter, ending with a stranger’s appearance.
Wat er gebeurt
- The old woman identifies her parents and describes her wealthy upbringing, beauty, and engagement to the Prince of Massa Carara.
- The Prince dies after drinking chocolate with his former mistress, and the grieving women embark on a voyage.
- Corsairs capture their ship, strip and search the women, and carry them toward Morocco; the captain rapes the young princess.
- In Morocco, rival fighters attack the captain’s party and kill her mother, the other women, and the captain.
- She escapes the bodies, collapses beneath an orange tree, and wakes to find a white man above her.
