what are two dominating qualities of albert? the count of revenge
Answers
Explanation:
Albert is a young French nobleman. He is the son of the Count and the Countess of Morcerf. A man of great character, to whom honour and self-respect are of great value. He possesses a very pleasing personality and is very enthusiastic about life.
Simple And Noble
Albert is very simple by nature. He is unable to discern Monte Cristo’s intentions in becoming so thick with him. He has all the noble qualities, which a nobleman values. To him, his honour and his family’s good name are more dear to him, than life itself.
Sentimental Young Man
Albert is a very sentimental young man. When the Chamber of Deputies condemns his father, the Count of Morcerf as a traitor, he is very upset. He narrates to his mother, the Countess, the circumstances in which his father is disgraced. He felt so ashamed that he wanted to give up his name and to leave the country. He is so upset that he makes up his mind to take revenge of his father’s enemy.
A Man Of Honour
Albert is a man of honour. When he discovers that his own dear friend, Monte Cristo, is his father’s enemy, he challenges him, to a duel, for the sake of his family honour.
Wise And Bold
Although Albert is a very emotional young man yet he is wise and sensible t heed his mother’s counsel, to desist from fighting the duel. When his own mother convinces him of his father’s guilt he not only decides not to fight the duel, but also apologizes to him, for challenging him to a duel. He is bold and does not feel ashamed, in asking Monte Cristo’s forgiveness. He is brave and forth right and tells his father, about his guilt and that he should face his enemy.
A Dutiful Son
Albert is a dutiful and an affectionate son. He loves his mother and is very respectful to her. But his only blemish is that, he shows disrespect to his father, when he learns that his father is the villain of the piece. He refuses to embrace his father and accept his blessings. This is in very bad taste. As a sensible and dutiful son, he should have stood by his father. Apart from this, Albert impresses the readers with his strong sense of justice and honour and love for his country.
The question is unclear about whether it is asking about The Count of Monte Cristo as a book or the Count of Monte Cristo as the character. There is a bit of overlap because Edmond Dantes is such a central and dominating character that his personality and actions guide a few of the story's themes. For example, one dominating feature of both the story and Dantes is revenge. When it comes down to it, this story is a simple revenge story. It's a great revenge story with a lot of wonderful conniving, planning, and brilliant execution, but Dantes's main motivation is revenge. It keeps him alive in prison, and it is a guiding light to his actions even after he obtains so much wealth that he doesn't need to think twice about his past life. A second dominating quality that the story illustrates through Dantes is the importance of perseverance. Dantes is more than "determined"—that isn't an aggressive enough word for it. People tend to remain determined while things are going well. Determination can be easy. Perseverance, on the other hand, connotes that great difficulty and suffering are in the way. Dantes goes to a horrible prison for over a decade, and his revenge scheme isn't a quick one either; however, he perseveres through every difficulty placed in his way.
