David Copperfield, Chapter 48: samenvatting
Chapter 48 van 64 · 19 min om chapter te lezen
In Chapter 48, Doady succeeds as an author, leaves parliamentary reporting, and confronts household disorder after a servant steals Dora’s watch. His attempts to educate Dora distress them both, so he chooses acceptance and private self-discipline, but her increasing weakness brings a fear he struggles to acknowledge.
Wat er gebeurt
- His successful book gives Doady confidence to leave parliamentary reporting, while his household remains badly managed.
- The page steals Dora’s watch, exposes further household wrongdoing, and receives a sentence of transportation.
- Doady’s explanation of their responsibility toward servants upsets Dora, and months of attempted instruction only increase her anxiety.
- He abandons his efforts to change her and accepts responsibility for managing his own dissatisfaction.
- Dora grows weak, and the narrator describes the loss of their hoped-for baby.
- Family and friends help care for Dora, but carrying her increasingly light body fills Doady with unspoken dread.
