افتراضي Why did Dickens start the novel with so many contradictions?

1. Why did Dickens start the novel with so many contradictions?
Dickens started the novel with so many contradictions to give us a view of the extreme differences between the classes at that time. The nobles were living in comfort and luxury and the common people were living in poverty and misery . The king of England was too busy with his wars to worry about his own people’s poverty. The king of France and the nobles were concerned with their own pleasure and wealth. Both kings were too busy to worry about the poor hungry lower classes that began to make plans to get rid of their rulers.

افتراضي Speak about the terrible conditions in France in the setting scene.

1. Speak about the terrible conditions in France in the setting scene.
· People were living in terrible poverty and misery. And the nobles were spending money carelessly and enjoying their lives.
· Crime spread everywhere. People received cruel punishment even for small crimes. *A youth could be sentenced يحكم عليه to have his hands cut off, his tongue torn out with pincers كماشه and his body burned alive.
· As a result, there were secret plans and steps taken for a revolution.
· To revenge, trees were growing in the woods of France to be cut down to make boards used in making, silently, a terrible machine (the guillotine المقصلة ).
· The poor suffering people of France prepared the rough carts (tumbrels عربات الموتى) that would carry those who would be punished at the guillotine later on.

Chapter 3 The wine shop

1. Speak about Saint Antoine as a part of Paris and about the people who lived there, giving an example of the misery بؤس of the people.
= How do you know that the people of St. Antoine were poor?
St. Antoine was a poor street in Paris. Its people were hungry and miserable. When the barrel of wine was broken, they left their work and fought like beasts وحوش to drink the muddy wine that ran along the street. They had never tasted wine before because of their poverty. They knew nothing but black bread and death.
1. How did Defarge make use of the Doctor’s presence after he had been set free?
Defarge, Dr Manette’s old servant-kept him in a locked room. He used to allow the Jacques (a revolutionary group) to watch Dr. Manette- an ex-Bastille prisoner. He wanted to fill them with great hatred for the nobles and to urge يحث them to revolt against their injust ruler. This shows the seeds of revolution in Defarge’s heart.
2. On what occasion did Defarge accuse Gaspard of rashness?
Defarge accused Gaspard of being rash when Gaspard wrote the word BLOOD on the wall with the muddy wine in the street. He meant that a revolution would break out and make blood flow as the red wine did in the street. Defarge [as a leader of a revolutionary group working in secret (Jacques)] didn’t like anyone to feel their anger against the aristocrats.
1. What foreshadows the revolution in this chapter?
=Dickens, here, prepares us for the revolution and its happenings. Explain
· The word blood Which Gaspard wrote on the wall.
· The wine shop – the meeting place of the revolutionists.
· The knitting work of Madam Defarge.
· The revolutionary group called "Jacques".
1. “Are you a subject for the mad hospital? Why are you writing in the public streets?”
Defarge said these words to Gaspard, the man who wrote the word blood on the wall. He blamed him for doing so in front of people. Defarge was the leader of the "Jacques" a group working for the coming revolution. The word blood here refers to the blood path of the nobles after the breaking out of the revolution.
2. “It is not often that these miserable beasts know the taste of wine or anything but black bread and death.”
=“So Much the worse! A bitter taste it is that such poor cattle always have in their mouths, and hard lives they live. ”
One of the Jacques said these words to Defarge and the other two men drinking at the bar. They were all speaking about the poor people who ran to drink the muddy wine. The people in Saint Antoine led a terrible life. They were neglected and deprived of يحرم من their rights. That’s why they began to plan to get rid of the nobles.
3. “I show him to a chosen few, to whom the sight is likely to do good”.
Defarge said these words to Mr. Lorry when he asked him about the three people who were looking at Dr. Manette. Defarge used to show them Dr. Manette to increase their hatred for the aristocrats. The men, he was going to show them the doctor, were members in groups working for the revolution. To encourage them to get rid of the nobles he used to show them the victim of the Bastille.

Chapter 4 five years later
1. What was Charles Darney's accusationتهمة /denunciation إدانة?
=What was the evidence الشهادة/دليل ضد against Darney?
=Why was Darnay tried تم محاكمته in London? Who were the witnesses brought to testify against يشهد ضد him? And how was he saved?
Darnay was put to trial in London because *he was accused of being a spy and of helping the French king in his wars against the king of England.
*He was accused of travelling between England and France and informing the French of what armies the king of England was preparing to send to Canada and North America.
*Six witnesses were brought to testify against him; John Barsad, Robbert Cly, Lucie Manette, Dr. Manette, Mr. Lorry and another one.
*Stryver showed Barsad as a spy and traitor and Cly as a thief. So their witness was valueless. *Sydney Carton (Stryver’s assistant) helped Darnay a great deal by drawing the attention of Stryver to the great physical similarity تشابه between Carton and Darnay. This disproved أبطلthe witness of the man who said that he saw Darnay waiting for someone in a hotel in a town where he was spying on the English army.
Stryver said that Darnay was an innocent victim whose secret family affairs caused him to travel between the two countries.


1. How was Charles Darney acquitted in his first trial in London?
The sixth witness gave evidence against Darnay when he said that he saw Darnay in a hotel in a town where there were soldiers.
However Darnay was saved by the help of Sydney Carton. Carton drew the attention of Stryver to the similarity between him and Darnay. Then Stryver disproved the evidence of the sixth witness who could not identify the man he saw.

1. How was Darnay a victim of a wicked plot مكيدة?
Although he was a member of a noble family, Darnay didn't like the bad ways his uncle was doing to the poor people. So his uncle planned to get rid of him.
Papers were put secretly in his drawers by his servant who was hired by John Barsad. He was brought to trial in the Old Bailey and was falsely accused of being a spy working against the king of England.
Six witnesses were brought to testify against him and he was coming near death. However, by the help of Carton, he was set free.
2. What were the good and weak points in the character of Sydney Carton?
Carton is a memorable character. He had many weak points as well as good ones.
*Carton was a man of great powers and a good heart. He was clever and intelligent. He was useful to Stryver. He prepared all the cases for him. Carton was frank; he told Darnay that he didn’t like him. Carton’s love was pure and unselfish. He didn’t ask Lucie to return his love because he would bring her to misery. He gave his life to save Darnay for her sake.
*However Carton was sad, lonely and aimless in life. He was not successful in life. He was a perfect jackal working for the lion. Carton was careless. To forget his pains, he took to يدمن drinking and liked mixing with bad friends.
1)"Look at that gentleman over there and then look carefully at the prisoner. What do you say? Are they very like each other?"
Stryver, the lawyer defending Charles Darney in his first trial in London, said these words to the sixth witness. The sixth witness said that he saw Darney in a town where there were soldiers, exchanging papers with people there.This witness could have sent Darney to death. However Stryver could disprove this witness when Carton drew his attention to the similarity between the prisoner and him.
The sixth witness couldn't identify the man he saw in that town and Darney was set free.
1)"It's the wisest thing to expect and the likeliest. But I think their not agreeing and requesting more time is in your favour."
Carton said these words to Darney. Carton asked Darney if he was expecting good or bad news about his case. Darney said he was expecting the worst. Carton – here – shows his admiration of Darney's wisdom حكمة . Unlike Darney, Carton was optimistic about Darney's trial.
2)"I have an obligation to you for life –in two senses,"
Darney said these words to Mr. Stryver, the lawyer who defended him in his first trial in London. Stryver praised himself for saving Darney's life as well as his reputation. And here Darney is thanking him for this. Charles Darney was accused of………………………………………. .
1)“You have acted as if you do, but I don’t think you do”.
Darnay said these words to Sydney Carton in answer to Caron’s question if he thought Carton loved him. After the trial Carton and Darnay went to dine together. Darnay thanked Carton for saving his life in court. But Carton who was jealous of him asked if he thought he liked him. Darnay was surprised and said that Carton acted as if he liked him but he did not believe that Carton really liked him.
1)"You're still like a see-saw, aren't you? Up one minute and down the next; now in good spirits, now in despair."
This part was said by Carton to Stryver when the latter commented on the moody متقلب المزاج Carton. Carton felt desperate in life. He was careless and had led a strange life since childhood. He used to work for his friends at school and never did his own work. And now he is doing the same for Stryver.


Sydney Carton
A life you love beside you
