Emma Chapters 49-51

"Mr. Knightley, always so kind, so feeling, so truly considerate for every body, would never deserve to be less worshipped than now; and it really was too much to hope even of Harriet, that she could be in love with more than three men in one year."2. “He trifles here,” said he, “as to the temptation. He knows he is wrong, and has nothing rational to urge.—Bad."3. “Nay, nay, read on.—You will find how very much he suffers.” “I hope he does,” Questions moving forward: What's going to happen when Emma tells Harriet?

Emma Chapters 44-46

There's a LOT going on in this episode. This is the humbling of Emma Woodhouse. Buckle up.Emma begins to realize she might be the problem, Jane finally accepts a governess position and promptly falls ill. Knightley almost kisses Emma's hand, Mrs. Churchill DIES, and Jane starts avoiding Emma. And FINALLY, it is revealed that Jane and Frank have been LONG ENGAGED?!?!? Study questions: Topics discussed include Emma's repentance, Jane's avoidance of Emma, a deep dive into the engagement, and whether Frank Churchill is the villain of this story.Funniest quote: "It was felt as such things must be felt. Every body had a degree of gravity and sorrow; tenderness towards the departed, solicitude for the surviving friends; and, in a reasonable time, curiosity to know where she would be buried. Goldsmith tells us, that when lovely woman stoops to folly, she has nothing to do but to die; and when she stoops to be disagreeable, it is equally to be recommended as a clearer of ill-fame. Mrs. Churchill, after being disliked at least twenty-five years, was now spoken of with compassionate allowances. In one point she was fully justified. She had never been admitted before to be seriously ill. The event acquitted her of all the fancifulness, and all the selfishness of imaginary complaints."Questions moving forward: Why was Frank flirting with Emma? Who wins the chapters? Emma!Glossary of Terms and Phrases:ostler (n): a man employed to look after the horses of people staying at an inn.Glossary of People, Places, and Things: Oliver Goldsmith, Bojack Horseman, Logan Huntzberger Next Episode: Vol. III Chapters 11-12 or Chapters 47 and 48Our show art was created by Torrence Browne, and our audio is produced by Graham Cook.
