"You are Joseph the dreamer of dreatns, dear Jude, and a tragic Don Quixote. And sometimes you are St Stephen, who white they were stoning him, could see Heaven opened. O my poor friend and comrade, you'll suffer yet!" Jude Fawley, a stone-mason, has already suffered. His academic ambitions were thwarted by his poverty and class: trapped into o loveless marriage, he is now alone but not free. He comes to love his cousin Sue who, seemingly emancipated, is herself miserably married. Sue's wordsto Jude are prophetic, for although together they defy conventional morality to seize achance of happiness, they are ultimately defeated by both circumstańce and the flaws within their own nature. Thomas Hardy's last nove1 is focused on the themes of sex and marriage. The tragedy of Jude's struggle for happiness is intensified by the lack of opportunity for the ordinary man to improve his lot, despite the changes and deve10pments of Victorian society. |
