Beskrivelse af Lodore
""Lodore"" is a novel written by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, published in 1835. The story follows the lives of a wealthy and influential family, the Fletchers, as they navigate the challenges of love, marriage, and social status in 19th century England. The patriarch of the family, Lord Lodore, is a successful politician and businessman, but his personal life is fraught with difficulties. His wife, the beautiful and talented Cornelia, is unhappy in their marriage and seeks solace in the arms of another man. Meanwhile, their daughter, Ethel, falls in love with a young man named Ferdinand, but their relationship is threatened by societal expectations and the disapproval of Ethel's father. As the story unfolds, the characters must confront their own desires and the expectations of others, leading to a dramatic and emotional conclusion. Through her vivid and complex characters, Shelley explores themes of love, ambition, and the struggle for personal freedom in a society that values conformity above all else. ""Lodore"" is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on the social and cultural norms of its time.It was, perhaps, strange that Fitzhenry, alive to the smallest evil that might approach his darling child, and devoted to her sole guardianship, should have been blind to the sort of danger which she ran during his absence. But the paternal protection is never entirely efficient. A father avenges an insult; but he has seldom watchfulness enough to prevent it. In the present instance, the extreme youth of Ethel might well serve as an excuse. She was scarcely fifteen; and, light-hearted and blithe, none but childish ideas had found place in her unruffled mind.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
