Middlemarch, Chapter 72: samenvatting
Chapter 72 van 88 · Book 8: Sunset and Sunrise · 6 min om chapter te lezen
In Chapter 72, Dorothea urges her friends to help clear Lydgate’s name and proposes discussing hospital support as a way to gain his confidence. Farebrother and Sir James advise waiting, and she reluctantly yields before challenging Celia’s claim that she should submit to James’s judgment.
Wat er gebeurt
- Farebrother explains that investigating Lydgate publicly lacks grounds, while questioning him privately risks giving serious offense.
- At dinner two days afterward, Dorothea renews her appeal for friends to defend Lydgate against suspicion.
- Farebrother allows that financial pressure might tempt an honorable man, but Dorothea insists that damaged character can recover.
- Dorothea proposes consulting Lydgate about supporting the Hospital, but Farebrother, Sir James, and Mr. Brooke discourage immediate action.
- In the library, Celia urges obedience to James, and Dorothea protests before laughing at her sister’s inconsistent reasoning.
