Edmond Dantes

One soldier even suggests that the locket is a lucky charm for Edmond, seeing as though he has never even gotten a scratch from battle. This foreshadowing made the ending more predictable because the story continues to lead up to Edmond’s “death” when it has already been discussed that Edmond has never been injured from battle. Though it would’ve been very ironic if Edmond were really dead because of how “lucky” the locket is; that’s not the case here. The locket was introduced to the readers as being lucky, so throughout the story it is then seen as Edmond’s good luck charm, so obviously in the end he would reveal himself as

At last, he escaped with the help of an old man in prison with him, and inherited a treasure from the old man which is enough for Dantes to do anything he wants in the world, but he did not only escaped with the treasure, he escaped with a heart of revenge.

Caderousse: one of the original plotters against Edmond, he unlike Danglars and Fernand doesn’t get rich off of the scheme. In fact he chooses not to take an active part in the crime of framing Edmond for something he didn’t commit. This doesn’t mean he isn’t greedy, he is but more however he is constantly dissatisfied with his state/position and is not afraid to use any means at his disposal to rise further and further above his station. Including thievery and murder, this though gets him killed by the count when trying to rob him. Thus getting Edmond one step closure to his ultimate goal of complete vengeance.

Edmond Dantes was a young leader whose purpose in life, who he cares about, and how others viewed him contributed with remaining humble to his father, his love for Mercedes, and most importantly himself. Yet his naive manner made him ignorant of his surroundings. The purpose of Dante's´ life contributed to his loved ones expressed by “ With my first pay I shall buy you little house with a garden where you can plant your clematis, your nasturtiums, and your  honeysuckle” (Dumas , 10). This expressed Dantes’ immensely loving bond with his father, for his dream was to give everything he can to him.

You are watching a ballerina. As she leaps through the air, you recognize the beauty, but she lands too quickly for you to notice the detail. Spectacular moments, such as this, go by so quickly onstage that most people miss them. Richard Calmes captures these “bursts of beauty” through photography.

One work that influenced me the most this semester was From U.S.A. by John Dos Pasos. His work made me think about the question, How then shall I live? This has brought me to go back and think about how my life has been this far, now that I’m 21. Everyones life has bumps in the road and obstacles to over come. If they didn't life would just be perfect for everyone and thats certainly something thats not going to happen.

From the beginning, Fernand envies Edmond’s relationship with Merccédès and betrays him to get her. Fernand kept bugging Mercédès from the start about her love and devotion for Edmond, trying to dig out a false answer (Dumas 12). Edmond calls Fernand an enemy at first, not hesitant to strike him down until Mercédès explained who he was (Dumas 13). Fernand said, “‘How can I get rid of him! What can I do? What can I do’” (Dumas 13)? Fernand is very jealous of Edmond’s relationship with Mercédès, and Fernand’s act of betrayal is the worst of all the acts of betrayal. He is not afraid to step on people to push himself higher in society.

In every country has different value of money, the money represents as “yourself” attitude to others. For whom you dedicated a song that gives you up when you are down, for those friends that gives their advices to comfort you when you have a problem, God that gives your life to live. To love and to become a good person in this world and your family that will return you in who you are. Sacrifices is the best way to become success to your goal in your life. Try to become independent to others. Be pathetic to others because it result to return unto you.

Edmond angry with those who wrongly punished him, decides that vengeance is the best way to get justice. When the Monte Cristo moved into his new house, on the Avenue des Champs Elysées, Bertuccio, his servant, was telling him a story about how he stabbed Villefort, in that same house, and how he took the baby that was in the box, that Villefort was about to bury. After the story, Monte Cristo thought to himself, “For every evil there are two remedies: time and
