Recall the title - 'a study of provincial life'. However, although it may be the lesser tragedy, I think when considered in view of the broader themes of the book, one must consider Will's comfortable irrelevance to be an underachievement.
Certainly the reader is left with the impression that while he may be impressive in his own way, the obscurity of Will's later life is something less of a tragedy than the obscurity of Dorothea's, whose brilliance seems rather more unquestionable. Of course, perhaps you consider Will to have simply reached his ceiling, as a bright but decidedly non-genius young man. Most likely the life of an obscure MP was in fact rather more trivial (and for that matter, rather more bourgeois) than it is today. You can probably name half a dozen great writers or great painters of the Victorian era without pausing for breath, but can you name even one back-bench MP? Perhaps this is because, especially in the time of Middlemarch, Britain's democracy was only just struggling out of the dark ages (the Reform Act is in fact a major plot point), and was still far from the (mostly) accountable and representative system it is today. If you believe that Will had the potential to become a great artist or philosopher - and whether you believe this depends on your reading of the text, since I believe it is left somewhat ambiguous whether he was truly gifted or simply a high-grade dilettante - then you should probably consider the life he settled for to be underwhelming. But rightly or wrongly the nature of her person has come to be more significant than the specifics of her work. Lots of intelligent, novel thinkers are obscure. This is important because the OP was trying to trace a lineage from the work of Goethe to the underpinnings of Computer Science.Īs for the comment that upsets you, I would ask - do you disagree that Lovelace's life and work has been used as a football by people with a point to prove for decades? It's not to discredit her that I say she would likely otherwise be obscure. That is, it largely came to be appreciated after it had been superseded, and therefore is known for its historical value rather than for being scientifically or technologically formative. What I'm saying is that it wasn't particularly influential, which I believe to be the case. I'm also not saying her contribution wasn't good - it was, though I believe it to be relatively minor (then again, she died tragically young - she could well have gone on to accomplish a great deal more). I don't know why you're putting those words in my mouth.
