بنات هذي الكوتيشنز حقت الدرآمآ ذا رآيفلز
بس نآقص كوتيشن اتوقع قالته ليديآ اللي عندهآ تحطه ! Jul. Nay, you are wrong entirely. We were contracted before my father’s death. That, and some consequent embarrassments, have delayed what I know to be my Faulkland’s most ardent wish. He is too generous to trifle on such a point—and for his character, you wrong him there, too. No, Lydia, he is too proud, too noble, to be jealous; if he is captious, ’tis without dissembling; if fretful, without rudeness. Unused to the fopperies of love, he is negligent of the little duties expected from a lover—but being unhackneyed in the passion, his affection is ardent and sincere; and as it engrosses his whole soul, he expects every thought and emotion of his mistress to move in unison with his. Yet, though his pride calls for this full return, his humility makes him undervalue those qualities in him which would entitle him to it; and not feeling why he should be loved to the degree he wishes, he still suspects that he is not loved enough. This temper, I must own, has cost me many unhappy hours; but I have learned to think myself his debtor, for those imperfections which arise from the ardour of his attachment. ~ Sir Anth. Zounds! sirrah! the lady shall be as ugly as I choose: she shall have a hump on each shoulder; she shall be as crooked as the crescent; her one eye shall roll like the bull’s in Cox’s Museum; she shall have a skin like a mummy, and the beard of a Jew—she shall be all this, sirrah!—yet I will make you ogle her all day, and sit up all night to write sonnets on her beauty. ~ Faulk. They told me Julia would return directly; I wonder she is not yet come! How mean does this captious, unsatisfied temper of mine appear to my cooler judgment! Yet I know not that I indulge it in any other point: but on this one subject, and to this one subject, whom I think I love beyond my life, I am ever ungenerously fretful and madly capricious! I am conscious of it—yet I cannot correct myself! What tender honest joy sparkled in her eyes when we met! how delicate was the warmth of her expression! I was ashamed to appear less happy—though I had come resolved to wear a face of coolness and upbraiding. Sir Anthony’s presence prevented my proposed expostulations: yet I must be satisfied that she has not been so very happy in my absence. She is coming! Yes!—I know the nimbleness of her tread, when she thinks her impatient Faulkland counts the moments of her stay. ~ faulk. In tears! Stay, Julia: stay but for a moment.—The door is fastened!—Julia!—my soul—but for one moment!—I hear her sobbing!—’Sdeath! what a brute am I to use her thus! Yet stay! Ay—she is coming now:—how little resolution there is in a woman!—how a few soft words can turn them!—No, faith!—she is not coming either.—Why, Julia—my love—say but that you forgive me—come but to tell me that—now this is being too resentful. Stay! she is coming too—I thought she would—no steadiness in anything: her going away must have been a mere trick then—she sha’n’t see that I was hurt by it.—I’ll affect indifference—[Hums a tune; then listens.] No—zounds! she’s not coming!—nor don’t intend it, I suppose.—This is not steadiness, but obstinacy! Yet I deserve it.—What, after so long an absence to quarrel with her tenderness!—’twas barbarous and unmanly!—I should be ashamed to see her now.—I’ll wait till her just resentment is abated—and when I distress her so again, may I lose her for ever! and be linked instead to some antique virago, whose gnawing passions, and long hoarded spleen, shall make me curse my folly half the day and all the night. ~ Abs. ’Tis just as Fag told me, indeed. Whimsical enough, faith! My father wants to force me to marry the very girl I am plotting to run away with! He must not know of my connection with her yet awhile. He has too summary a method of proceeding in these matters. However, I’ll read my recantation instantly. My conversion is something sudden, indeed—but I can assure him it is very sincere. So, so—here he comes. He looks plaguy gruff. ~ بالتوفيق للجميييييييييع و دعوآتكم |

الكوتيشن تبع جوليآ ..!
Jul. Nay, you are wrong entirely. We were contracted before my father’s death.... هذآ لمآ ليديآ وصفت فولكلآند بانه ungrateful وهذآ الشرح من الملزمه اللي عندي . Julia defends her lover Faulkland. Julia has been contracted to Faulkland before her father dies. Once, she was in a boat and the boat shipwrecked. Julia was about to drown. Faulkland swam and he saved her from drowning. Since that time she fell in love with him. Her father was alive and they got contracted. Faulkland is delaying their marriage. He gives pretexts to delay their marriage. This is why Lydia calls him the 'ungrateful Faulkland'. Julia loves him very much and she is defending him. He is very cold when he is with her but she justifies his coldness saying that,' he is too proud, too noble to be jealous; if he is captious, 'tis without dissembling; if fearful, without rudeness.' He frets her all the time. So he is fretful. She says,' his affection is ardent and sincere'. It means he really loves me. 'he still suspects that he is not loved enough'. He always suspects that she doesn't love him that much. 'This temper, I must own, has cost me many unhappy hours;' many times I was unhappy with that. She knows his defects. She doesn't love his defects. She is reasonable; she makes balance between reason and emotion. Sentimental people do not see the defects of their lovers. Julia is not blind with her lover. She can see his defects ~ Abs. ’Tis just as Fag told me, indeed. Whimsical enough, faith! My father wants to force me to marry the very girl I am..... هذآ soliloquy قاله كآبتن جآك وهذآ الشرح This soliloquy shows that Jack is very happy that Sir Anthony Absolute has chosen Lydia not anyone else. So, the plot is less much complicated. Sir Anthony is surprised to find his son changing his attitude. He submits to his will. He becomes very obedient after telling him I disagree with you, I object to this marriage, in this point I’ll disobey you. Then after 6 and half hours he goes and talks to him and tells him I’ll do whatever you like, I’m your obedient son. I’ll do this even if you bring for me a very bad lady, even if she is old, even if she is with a hump, even if she has one eye only. Absolute says, ‘ you before hinted something about a hump or two, one eye, and a few more graces of that kind—‘. This is what Sir Anthony told his son before. Sir Anthony says,’ What a phlegmatic sot it is!’. This is medieval influence. Richard Sheridan talks about the old medieval theory of humours. The phlegmatic character is very cold and reasonable.( you have to explain the phlegmatic character). Jack tells his father that he accepts to marry the lady he chooses for him. And he doesn’t care about her beauty because he only likes her to be normal in appearance. Sir Anthony accuses him of being phlegmatic. That is to say cold and too reasonable. After that Sir Anthony Absolute tells his son that he will write a note to tell Mrs. Malaprop that Jack will visit her directly. Directly to keep the unity of time. هذي اللي عندي للحين اما البآقي وحححده تتبرع وتشرحهآ ! ( طبعآ لآتعتمدون على هذآ بس / هذآ بس اللي موجود عندي بس انتو حآولو تختصرونهآ آو ترتبون الشرح على فهمكم ) دعوآتكم كتبت الشرح في الموضوع الثآني بس حطيته هنآ عشآن اللي مآيشوف هذآك يشوف هذآ والعكس |

ياحلوين هذا حل الكوتيشنز QUOTATIONS 1- Act I, scene ii :JULIA Nay, you are wrong entirely. We were contracted before my father's death. That, and some consequent embarrassments, have delayed what I know to be my Faulkland's most ardent wish. He is too generous to trifle on such a point:—and for his character, you wrong him there, too. No, Lydia, he is too proud, too noble to be jealous; if he is captious, 'tis without dissembling; if fretful, without rudeness. Unused to the fopperies of love, he is negligent of the little duties expected from a lover—but being unhackneyed in the passion, his affection is ardent and sincere; and as it engrosses his whole soul, he expects every thought and emotion of his mistress to move in unison with his. Yet, though his pride calls for this full return, his humility makes him undervalue those qualities in him which would entitle him to it; and not feeling why he should be loved to the degree he wishes, he still suspects that he is not loved enough. This temper, I must own, has cost me many unhappy hours; but I have learned to think myself his debtor, for those imperfections which arise from the ardour of his attachment. These lines are quoted from The Rivals by Sheridan. They are taken from Act I scene II. These lines are spoken by Julia. She is speaking to Lydia her cousin about Faulkland her lover. From this quotation we get to know about the subplot of the play. We also get to know some of the characteristics of both Faulkland and Julia and the type of relation that is between him and Julia. From this quotation, we get to know about the style of Sheridan in satirizing sentimentality. These lines are said by Julia in a conversation between her and Lydia. Lydia is telling Julia about her problem with her aunt Mrs. Malaprop. She prevented her from going to see Beverly her lover. The character of Julia is quite clear in this quotation. Julia is sensible. She represents the age of sensibility. She makes balance between reason and emotion. She tells Lydia that Beverly is very poor and she is very rich, they don't match together. Julia says this is caprice. Lydia tells Julia, don't talk about caprice because you are capricious because you love the 'ungrateful Faulkland'. This is the opinion of Lydia concerning Faulkland. Lydia blames Julia for loving the 'ungrateful Faulkland'. Julia defends her lover Faulkland. Julia has been contracted to Faulkland before her father dies. Once, she was in a boat and the boat shipwrecked. Julia was about to drown. Faulkland swam and he saved her from drowning. Since that time she fell in love with him. Her father was alive and they got contracted. Faulkland is delaying their marriage. He gives pretexts to delay their marriage. This is why Lydia calls him the 'ungrateful Faulkland'. Julia loves him very much and she is defending him. He is very cold when he is with her but she justifies his coldness saying that,' he is too proud, too noble to be jealous; if he is captious. He frets her all the time. So he is fretful. She says,' his affection is ardent and sincere'. It means he really loves her. He always suspects that she doesn't love him that much. many times she was unhappy with that. She knows his defects. She doesn't love his defects. She is reasonable; she makes balance between reason and emotion. Sentimental people do not see the defects of their lovers. Julia is not blind with her lover. She can see his defects. Lydia asks Julia whether she loves him because he saved her from drowning. Julia says no, it is not gratitude, she really loves him. So, we now that Julia is really in love with Faulkland. The problem of the subplot is Faulkland. Although he has the acceptance of the father who has died and the acceptance of Julia still not confident that Julia is in love with him. He wants to make sure, may be he is a jealous man. She goes on describing his qualities. He delays their marriage as distrusts, he is not sure that she loves him. This lake of confidence is not because he thinks that she is evil but because he doesn’t believe in his own qualities; that he is worthy of her love and that is why she is not in love with him. He says that he loves her so much so she forgives him; she believes that she is indebt to him because he had saved her from drowning. Lydia believes that Julia is in love with Faulkland as she feels that she owns him; she is indebt with him, because he saved her life from drowning from the boat they were in which had turned over and he saved her from drowning. Julia says that she loved him even before he had saved her life. From all this conversations we got lots of information about the quarrel between Faulkland and Julia and why he is not yet married to Julia, how he had saved her life in the past and . Here, Sheridan is referring to the theory of humor. He is criticizing the character of Faulkland as being melancholic. He tends to be sad all the time. He does not enjoy his being in love. He blames Julia for being happy in his absence. Sheridan is not criticizing the sentimental character. He is sympathizing with him. He arouses sympathy. His satire is not severe . He is satirizing Faulkland. he is satirizing people who have excess of sentimentality. There is satire, but it is not severe. 2- Act II, scene i : Sir ANTHONY Zounds! sirrah! the lady shall be as ugly as I choose: she shall have a hump on each shoulder; she shall be as crooked as the crescent; her one eye shall roll like the bull's in Cox's Museum; she shall have a skin like a mummy, and the beard of a Jew—she shall be all this, sirrah!—yet I will make you ogle her all day, and sit up all night to write sonnets on her beauty. these lines are quoted from The Rivals by Sheridan. They are taken from act II Scene I. these lines are said by Sir Anthony Absolute. He is speaking to his son Captain Absolute. This quotation reflects two of the major themes in the play that is the son-father relationship and the theme of the gap between generations. there is a meeting between Sir Anthony and his son and we try to think about the parent - son relationship. In the scene between Sir Anthony and his son; Sir Anthony told his son, ‘I am not going to call you Jack again’, and when Jack was young he used to punish him by hitting and kicking him. There is no understanding between the father and the son. The father is a tyrant, a father who is not ready to discuss anything with his son. We learned from act 1 that Sir Anthony was a rash man. He never thought about his decision. He never stopped to think and this is very unwise. So there is folly in this man. The defect of the father is that he is foolish and unwise. His decisions are not to be respected. He tells his son that if the girl he has chosen him has one eye, if she is wrinkled like mummy, if she has a beard like a Jew or if she has a hump on her back, the son should marry her and obey his father’s orders without discussion if he wanted that. This is ironic because the father himself had fallen in love with Jack’s mother. He ran away with her. He disobeyed his old father. Yet he does not appreciate love. Absolute asked his father, if he disobeyed his father and ran away with the one he loved, then why now he forces him to marry this girl without letting him make decision. Sir Anthony answered that there is a difference between him self and the grandfather. The difference is that he is more indulgent with his son; he gives more things to his son. That is why Sir Anthony is severe on his son. Knowing what he did to his own father, how he ran away with the mother and that was against his father, he is not ready to have his son to do this to him. Instead of being more lenient to his son, he becomes a severer person exactly like Mrs. Malaprop .because she was in love, instead of understanding what love is, instead of being more considerate, she is worse and severer on Lydia. Sir Anthony because he himself had married for love, he thinks he will not allow his son to fall in love. Absolute is wondering what is his father himself had married for loved denying him from this kind of love. Here we have the behavior of the father to the son . We will see the hypocrisy of Jack Absolute .the hypocrisy of the son and the tyranny of the father. We will see both, how the son is hypocrite. He says words in his fathers back and say differently before his father’s face. He is not willing to listen to any words of the father. He is worried that his father heard any thing about the reason behind his being in Bath. He doesn’t want his father to know he has been here for Lydia. The son has ill feelings towards the father. He wishes his father has been ill so that he had been remained in Devonshire. he wishes his father illness .he doesn't want his father to be healthy . He has bad feelings for the father. Now when that father appears the second minute, he says he is so happy to see him in good health, it is good that he is here. He is hypocrite. Because he came so quickly that made him think that he is so ill and he wants to come to the health resort. He is so worried about his health. All of this shows that he is a liar and a hypocrite. The father does not trust him. He starts by showing consideration. He starts to show him that he is a very considerate father thinking of his son’s future. But we realized that instead of giving him the money he makes him through himself, he is going to make him marry a woman . Her dowry is what she has been inherited and so he will get a lot of money. Sir Anthony is thinking of marriage as extra income to his son. It is not a matter of the marriage it self Sir Anthony has seen the girl and he doesn’t mind that the girl is featherbrain or that she is in love with some body else. He doesn’t mind any of that as along as the girl has the money. She is beautiful and she has money .he says that even if she is not beautiful, if he will tell his son to marry, he should marry. So, money is a very important issue in Sir Anthony’s decision. Here we have the theme of arranged marriage. in the 18th century marriage was arranged among families. Sir Anthony and Mrs. Malaprop are arranged for the marriage of their young without letting them chose or even know about this arrangement. This also reflects the theme of the gap between generations. There is no understanding between the father and the son. Sir Anthony Absolute goes and talks to Jack, his son. He tells him that he has a wife for him. So, Jack says, wife for me without knowing. So, he tells him yes, why is it surprising for you? I have picked the wife for you. Jack objects. He tells his father that he is in love with somebody else and he has promised to marry her. He is talking about Lydia. We know that Sir Anthony Absolute, his opinion of women is very low. He thinks very low of women. He tells him that it is not a problem to break up with her, simply like this. He doesn’t care about her feelings. He says that women’ they are not worth redeeming’. Jack Absolute tells him plainly that in this case he disobeys him. He will not marry the one he has chosen. Sir Anthony Absolute is very upset and he gives Jack a period of six hours and a half to reconsider his decision. Why is it six hours and a half? Because the time of the whole play is only two hours. It is to keep the unity of time. The play originally two hours. So, he says six hours and a half because Richard Sheridan keeps the unity of time. Then Sir Anthony Absolute because he is very authoritative, he threatens Jack if he refuses to carry on his orders, he will disown and disinherit him. 'Zounds' is an examples of the effect of the 16th century language. 3- Act III, scene i : ABSOLUTE 'Tis just as Fag told me, indeed. Whimsical enough, faith! My father wants to force me to marry the very girl I am plotting to run away with! He must not know of my connection with her yet awhile. He has too summary a method of proceeding in these matters. However, I'll read my recantation instantly. My conversion is something sudden, indeed—but I can assure him it is very sincere. So, so—here he comes. He looks plaguy gruff. [Steps aside.] These lines are quoted from the Rivals by Sheridan. This quotation is taken from act III scene I. it is a soliloquy of Jack Absolute. He is alone of the stage speaking to himself and the audience can hear him. Every now and then we find a soliloquy. The play is full of soliloquies and asides because this is the effect of the 16th century drama or renaissance drama or Elizabethan drama. So the audiences know how the characters are thinking . Jack is talking to himself and he says that his father is contradicting himself because he married his mother for love, not for money. This is the character of Anthony Absolute. He is betraying his own principles. He married the mother of Jack for the sake of love when he was young. Anthony Absolute was sentimental when he was young and when he grew old, he changed a lot and he became very harsh and materialistic. This soliloquy shows that Jack is very happy that Sir Anthony Absolute has chosen Lydia not anyone else. So, the plot is less much complicated. Sir Anthony is surprised to find his son changing his attitude. He submits to his will. He becomes very obedient after telling him he disagrees with him, he objects to this marriage, in this point he’ll disobey him. Then after 6 and half hours he goes and talks to him and tells him he’ll do whatever he likes, he's his obedient son. he’ll do this even if he brings for him a very bad lady, even if she is old, even if she is with a hump, even if she has one eye only. Absolute says, ‘ you before hinted something about a hump or two, one eye, and a few more graces of that kind—‘. This is what Sir Anthony told his son before. Sir Anthony says,’ What a phlegmatic sot it is!’. This is medieval influence. Richard Sheridan talks about the old medieval theory of humors. The phlegmatic character is very cold and reasonable.( you have to explain the phlegmatic character). Jack tells his father that he accepts to marry the lady he chooses for him. And he doesn’t care about her beauty because he only likes her to be normal in appearance. Sir Anthony accuses him of being phlegmatic. That is to say cold and too reasonable. After that Sir Anthony Absolute tells his son that he will write a note to tell Mrs. Malaprop that Jack will visit her directly. Directly to keep the unity of time. Captain Absolute is going to meet his father he pretended to be penitent. He was not penitent or any thing. He wasn’t trying to ask for forgiveness. All what he realized that he should not quarrel with his father because the girl that his father has chosen is the same girl of his choice? What are the reasons he doesn’t tell his father right away that his choice is his choice. He keeps this from him. He keeps his father in deception. He tells his father that he is penitent and out of duty to his father he s ready even to marry the aunt. Why he didn’t tell his father that his choice is his choice. He is afraid that his father is so quick that he will go and tell Mrs. Malaprop the whole thing and as he has to take things gradually. At the same time why not make the father believe that his son is obedient and beautiful and makes him believe that his son will make anything that his father asks him to do. What a hypocrite, although he knows he will be cheating very quickly I will be able to pretend that I am really sincere, although he knows that. And the father now is not ready to hear a word So, here is a penitent Jack, giving all those words how his father has been a condescending man, how he has been a good man , kind man, how is it duty ,the authority of the father and the final conclusion is his own decision. His decision is to sacrifice every feeling he has in order to satisfy his father. We are not blaming him of being a hypocrite, and using all the language to pretend that he is obedient and he is loving to the kind father. we find that the humiliation that the father imposes on his who is a captain, to call him puppy or to abuse him in that manner even to talk about him behind his back as he talked to Mrs. Malaprop was most inconsiderate. How could a father trying to propose his son for marriage talk to him as a man of no say in the subject that he would hit him or through him, and the son will have to make what he wants with no discussion, all this will make out of his son not a respectable man. As we blame the son of hypocrisy and disrespect to his father and we blame the father for the humiliation and the tyrannical attitude he had towards his son. He behaves so quickly, he doesn't understand what is behind the mask which means he believed that his son is a penitent. Behind the mask, there is a man who is not penitent at all. Sir Anthony does not reserve respect. He is a tyrant and unwise man who think that he is going to force things on others. His morals are very liberal. He exposes himself of having a very liberal attitude towards women. We saw him speaking about the physical beauty of Lydia which is something that is not supposed to be the central of this man's attention. He disregarded her moral behavior as being in love with somebody else. He only concentrated on her money and her physical beauty. As choosing a wife for his son he should be looking for her moral behavior, for the maturity of her brain, whether she is obedient or disobedient for her family, whether she is educated or not, whether she is able to behave according to the moral conduct of the family or just do whatever she likes as sending letters to her lover, wanting to run away with him, going behind the level of her family trying to marry a poor man. All this tells us about the immaturity of Lydia, or may be immoral. He never worried about all these things thinking that they will be forgotten. What is most important or him that she just obeys her aunt if she is locked in a room, starve, marry against her will. What is significant is her money and her beauty. In spite of this, Sheridan makes Absolute to obey him, not to marry against the will of his father. We have the follies of the parents, not only the follies of the sons. 4- Act III, scene ii : FAULKLAND They told me Julia would return directly; I wonder she is not yet come! How mean does this captious, unsatisfied temper of mine appear to my cooler judgment! Yet I know not that I indulge it in any other point: but on this one subject, and to this one subject, whom I think I love beyond my life, I am ever ungenerously fretful and madly capricious! I am conscious of it—yet I cannot correct myself! What tender honest joy sparkled in her eyes when we met! how delicate was the warmth of her expression! I was ashamed to appear less happy—though I had come resolved to wear a face of coolness and upbraiding. Sir Anthony's presence prevented my proposed expostulations: yet I must be satisfied that she has not been so very happy in my absence. She is coming! Yes!—I know the nimbleness of her tread, when she thinks her impatient Faulkland counts the moments of her stay. These lines are quoted from the Rivals by Sheridan. It is taken from Act III scene II. It is a soliloquy of Faulkland. He is waiting in Julia's dressing room Every now and then we find a soliloquy. The play is full of soliloquies and asides because this is the effect of the 16th century drama or renaissance drama or Elizabethan drama. So the audiences know how the characters are. from this soliloquy we get to know about the character of Faulkland. it also reflects the type of relation that is between him and Julia, the hero and the heroine of the subplot. This is important to understand the character of Faulkland. He knows that he hurts Julia by showing coldness when he meets her. He loves her very much but when he sees her, he shows coldness. This is realistic. There are people who are like this. Because of this realism in delineating Faulkland, some audiences might sympathies with him. Now he goes to meet Julia. From the conversation we know that they have met before. He showed coldness. So, when he meets her this time, he justifies his cold attitude to her. He says he is shy to show his happiness to her in the presence of a third person. He tells her when there is a third person in the middle, he is shy to show her his love and his happiness to see her. Secondly, He tells her that he got very upset when he heard Acres talking about her cheerfulness and happiness in his absence. He blames her. He is going to fret her. He tells her that he has expected her to be sick, sad but she was happy singing and dancing. He tells her that the parting lovers should never smile. They should cry because this is sentimentality because of the pain of love. Julia defends herself and she tells Faulkland that she was really sad to be away from him. However, she pretends to be happy because people will talk about her. People will think that she has broken up with Faulkland if she cries or shows sadness. As usual they quarrel. Julia tells him that he always likes to be unkind to her. She tells him that she loves him not out of gratitude or duty but out of love. She loves him and she stays with him because she loves him not because she is grateful to him, because he always has worries that she accepts to marry him because of gratitude, because he saved her from drowning or duty, and because she is contracted to him. Then he keeps on tormenting her. He tortures her with his doubts. Then she leaves him and she cries. This is a soliloquy for Faulkland after she leaves. This soliloquy shows that he has a psychological problem. He keeps on thinking that she will come back and apology to him. He says I feel she is coming then she doesn’t come. So, he blames himself and says that he shouldn’t have fretted her this time. He is a man who is filled with fears and doubts. He is imbalanced. The sentimental character is an imbalanced character. He loves her and he is scared that she least left him and he loses her forever. Here Faulkland is describing his behavior as being captious. It is not only absolute who said this about him in act II. He says this about himself. He says that he is only behaving in this manner with Julia and the matter of love. He speaks of his two weaknesses, being capricious and being captious. He admits that these are his problems. Being capricious means being guided by whims, being whimsical. He admits that he can not correct himself. We have examples of this behavior with Julia. This is the first time we see the hero and the heroine of the subplot together. We have see Faulkland complaining from Julia, being upset that she has been happy, she danced, sang while he was absent. Acres told him that Julia who is his neighbor was really having fun. We have seen Julia defending Faulkland to Lydia, how she thought that she did not believe that there are some qualities in him that make people love him. He is always unsure whether he is loved or not, whether he deserves that love. He has no belief in Julia who loves him. He always tries to make sure that she loves him. There are many reasons for Julia to love him but he does not want her to love him for his looks, not for the oath her father had given, nor because of gratitude. The weakness in him is something that is very difficult to correct. Absolute tells him that there is no hope of correcting him. In act III, we find that Faulkland is in action with Julia. Whatever he does is out of two follies in him. He is captious= he quarrels with a person through his own words and capricious, whimsical person= one minute he is happy, the next minute he is unhappy. here, Sheridan is referring to the theory of humor of Ben Jonson. This is the effect of 16th century on him. The follies that he has are called inborn follies. It belongs to comedy of humors. Inborn folly is a folly that can not be corrected. We laugh at it, make fun at it but there is no hope of correcting it. Comedy of humors is not only for laughter but it ends in correcting. The argument is that it is difficult to correct a humor rather than correcting an acquired folly. There is always a correction how can Faulkland be corrected. He is so difficult to correct. He always goes to the same mistake. It is part of him. He is unable to change. This inability to change makes it waste of time to try to correct him. In act III, we have satire of Romance. Sheridan is laughing at those stories of romance. He was not against love, but he was for love, but for treating love in more realistic way. 5- Act III, scene ii FAULKLAND In tears! Stay, Julia: stay but for a moment.—The door is fastened!—Julia!—my soul—but for one moment!—I hear her sobbing!—'Sdeath! what a brute am I to use her thus! Yet stay!—Ay—she is coming now:—how little resolution there is in a woman!—how a few soft words can turn them!—No, faith!—she is not coming either.—Why, Julia—my love—say but that you forgive me—come but to tell me that—now this is being too resentful. Stay! she is coming too—I thought she would—no steadiness in anything: her going away must have been a mere trick then—she shan't see that I was hurt by it.—I'll affect indifference—[Hums a tune; then listens.] No—zounds! she's not coming!—nor don't intend it, I suppose.—This is not steadiness, but obstinacy! Yet I deserve it.—What, after so long an absence to quarrel with her tenderness!—'twas barbarous and unmanly!—I should be ashamed to see her now.—I'll wait till her just resentment is abated—and when I distress her so again, may I lose her for ever! and be linked instead to some antique virago, whose gnawing passions, and long hoarded spleen, shall make me curse my folly half the day and all the night. [Exit.] These lines are quoted from " the Rivals" a play by Sheridan. They are taken from act III Scene II. These lines are said by Faulkland after the exit of Julia in tears. It is a soliloquy of Faulkland. Every now and then we find soliloquy in the play. It is the effect of the 16th century. This shows that the play belongs to the explicit drama. The audiences are informed with every thing. Nothing is hidden. This quotation reflects the character of Faulkland and the type of relation that is between him and Julia the hero and the heroine of the subplot. Faulkland goes to explain why he is upset. He accuses Julia of always trying to put his love in a trail, questioning his love to her. Even if Faulkland had made her unhappy, she never showed to her friends that she is unhappy because she had to admit that the cause of her unhappiness is Faulkland. She did not want to complain against Faulkland. She is loving and forgiving that she will not speak behind his back or try to complain about him. He admits that he is brute. he is waiting for her to come back and apologize for him. "Zounds" is an example of the effect of the 16th century language.She says that even if he finds something wrong with her behavior she hopes that she will be taken as an example of liberty and ingratitude. She will not reach the point of disrespecting him or of being ingratitude to him. This is why he is a captious person. He takes her own words and quarrels over that. He does not want her to love him as she in grateful to him. He thinks that she admits that her feeling towards him is not love but gratitude. If it is for his brain, it is not love but esteem. He hopes that she does not love him because he is handsome. He wants her to love him for no quality, just to love him. He does not want her to stick to him just because of the contract her father had given him. He wants to be sure, hadn't they this contract, she would not have changed her mind. She tells him to break the contact to let him see whether she loves him or not. All the time he is trying whether she truly loves him or not. She asks him to give her the chance whether she loves him not out of the contract, out because of the oath, not out of gratitude, not because of his looks but just because she chose to be with him. ( mention the characteristics of Faulkland – theory of humor as being criticized by Sheridan- ) 6- Act IV, scene ii: LYDIA So, while I fondly imagined we were deceiving my relations, and flattered myself that I should outwit and incense them all—behold my hopes are to be crushed at once, by my aunt's consent and approbation—and I am myself the only dupe at last!—[Walking about in a heat.] But here, sir, here is the picture—Beverley's picture! [taking a miniature from her bosom] which I have worn, night and day, in spite of threats and entreaties!—There, sir [Flings it to him.]; and be assured I throw the original from my heart as easily. These lines are quoted from "the Rivals" by Sheridan. They are taken from Act Iv scene II. In these lines, Lydia is speaking to Captain Absolute. We call this scene the discovery scene.Sir Anthony and Absolute comes in. this is the scene where the deception is disclosed. The problem is not that it is Mrs. Malaprop who has to agree, but the problem is that Lydia has to mature to accept Beverly as Absolute. Sir Anthony Absolute took his son Jack Absolute by force into the house of Mrs. Malaprop to meet Lydia. He is reluctant to go. He is very embarrassed because he doesn't know how to meet Lydia and what to tell her. Lydia came down from upstairs. She doesn't want to look to Captain Absolute. So, she keeps putting her face in aside ways. Then Captain Absolute starts talking to Lydia aside. He tells her, please talk to me but don't get shocked. She said, this is Beverley, how can Beverley fool the father of Captain Absolute. It is the climax of the play. Lydia is very confused. She starts talking to him as Beverley. Mrs. Malaprop is there and Sir Anthony Absolute is there also. They think that Lydia is mad. Because they say that this is Captain Absolute, how can she talks to him as Beverley. they think that she is crazy. Then Sir Anthony Absolute starts to suspect his son. Sir Anthony Absolute is foolish. He thinks that Captain Absolute is not his son. So, Captain Absolute tells him that he is his son flesh and blood. Captain Absolute tells everyone that Beverley and Captain Absolute are one and the same. And he begs Lydia to forgive him and accept his love. Of course, the first thing Lydia said, and there will be no elopement. The most important thing in her sentimental dream is to elope with Beverley. She doesn't care about the scandal, it is something to be proud of for her. She tells Captain Absolute that he has ruined her sentimental dream and she doesn't want him anymore. He is very embarrassed and he asked the help of his father. He told his father, if he doesn’t help me, he 'll be finished. So, his father Sir Anthony Absolute interfered and he told Mrs. Malaprop, we are big enough, we are grown-up 'to forget and forgive'. This is a Christian note of forgiveness, a Christian note of reconciliation. Sir Anthony Absolute says, that Christian people should forget the vicious acts and forgive those who have been vicious to him. This is Christian influence in the play. So Mrs. Malaprop simply forgives Captain Absolute. Then Mrs. Malaprop and Sir Anthony Absolute left the stage and they left the couple together. Captain Absolute shows his other face. He starts to talk in a very materialistic way. He tells her everything is ok now, her aunt and his father agree that they can marry, so they should go and talk to the lawyer or better they should hurry and get the license so that she can get her fortune. Lydia calls him an impostor because he has laughed at her and all what he cares for is the money. She tells him that she doesn't bear him anymore. She says that she renounces him. He lost Lydia. The first problem in cat I was not that her aunt is going to object to her marriage to Beverly. This is one of the problems- getting the acceptance of the aunt, but not the major problem. The major problem is the odd nature of the girl that she was not ready to marry through a traditional marriage. Lydia is not ready to marry Beverly as absolute. This is why scene Iii act Iv is going to end in a break where Lydia is going to tell her aunt that for too long she has been asking her not to marry this man. Lydia renounces Beverly for ever. Now, she is going to be obedient to her aunt and to leave this man. This scene is the discovery of the two selves in front of the parents and Lydia. Absolute asks his father to leave him alone with Lydia. The father does not want to go away. Still he believes that his son comes to marry Lydia out of obedience to his father, that he does not care whether she is beautiful or not. He is stuttering, stammering. This is how he pretends in front of his father to be obedient, modest, bashful person. His modest is not allowing him to say a word. This embarrassing situation that Absolute is in is due to his own follies, his own deception, his own hypocrisy. He has to face the situation. He has to speak to every body. He discloses his identity to his father, Mrs. Malaprop and to Lydia. He tells her that because of her nature, He tried to go below his standard and he hopes that she will accept him. In that speech, he collects all the words that Absolute had used to speak of his behavior as an obedient son. He speaks of duty, obedient, penitence. His father qualifies him as a hypocrite. Here, we have the theme of mistaken identity- the theme of the gap between generations- criticism of the sentimental characters represented in Lydia. دعواتكم لي ياحلوين بالتوفيق بكره جد خايفه منه
