Body Biography of Charles Darnay

In a Tale Of Two Cities by Charles Dickens; Charles Darnay the main character portrays himself out to be a caring and loving individual towards Lucie by telling Dr.Mannette (Lucie's father). "Dear Doctor Manette, always knowing this hollowed light about you. I have forbone, and forbone, as long as it was in the nature of man to do it. I have felt, and do even now feel, that to bring my love-even mine- between you, is to touch your history with something not quite so good as itself. But I love her, Heaven is my witness" (Dickens 102). In this quote Charles Darnay expresses his feelings for Lucie showing that he cares for her deeply. Doctor Manette comes to know of this and acknowledges Darnay's request.

Light/Dark

In a Tale Of Two Cities by Charles Dickens;Light and Darkness displays the tone of hope and hopelessness in the story amongst the characters. First off  "You can bear a little more light". (Dickens 36). This means if  more  people can enter the room. In specific, Lucie is the light when she walks into the room where as Dr. Manette is being shined upon by the light. Another example is "His cold white head mingled with her radiant hair, which warmed and lighted it as though it was the light of freedom shining on him."(Dickens 34). In this quote Lucie is the source of light to Dr. Manette. Lucie says in the quote she is the reason he will be recalled to life and will have 'freedom'. The last example would be "He had put up a nah between his eyes and the light."(Dickens 30) This quote means Dr. Manette was imprisoned for so long that he feels different and unusual when he sees the light since he has been in darkness for such a long time while imprisoned. The Light and Darkness reflects upon Lucie and Dr. Manette's life showing the tone of hope and hopelessness.

Wine Shop- Foreshadowing

 In A Tale Of Two Cities by Charles Dickens; there is a wine spill that indicates that foreshadowing is taking place which reveals later events. The wine spill occurs in Chapter 5 when loads of people rush to the scene to get the wine. All of the people are trying different ways to drink the wine. A quote that I found indicates this.
"All the people within reach had suspended their business, or their idleness, to run to the spot and drink some wine"(Dickens-20). This quote means since the wine spill happened, people took advantage of this in order to get some free wine to drink. Another quote is when the author says "Some men kneeled down, made scoops of their two hands joined, and sipped, or tried to help women bent over  their shoulders, to sip, before the wine had all run out between their fingers"(Dickens-21). This means that the  people were trying to drink the wine quickly before the wine had gone out and had been wasted. The final quote the author says is :"Scrawled upon a wall with his fingers dipped in muddy winelees-BLOOD"(Dickens-22) This quote shows how the the wine on the man's fingers represented blood. I think that this person had encountered some kind of battle or fight.  In closing all of these are examples show foreshadowing.
