For much of his life, Darnay feels his family, the Evremondes’, “have done wrong, and are reaping the fruits of wrong” (Dickens 117) and “[injured] every human creature who came between [them] and [their] pleasure” (Dickens 117). Darnay flees from France to escape the cruelty of his uncle. Leonard Manheim, in Volume 1 of Dickens Studies Annual: Essays of Victorian Fiction, also points out that while fleeing, Darnay drops the “hated appellation Evremonde, adapting his new surname from his mother’s noble name of D’Aulnay, eliding the aristocratic de in deference to British taste” (Manheim 230). This shows Darnay’s resentment toward his own family and his want to disassociate himself from his birth family. Even though Darnay flees to France and changes his name to rid himself of his uncle’s cruelty, he still feels “responsible for it, but powerless in it” (Dickens 117).

By looking at their words and actions in the novel it should be simple to draw contrasts between them. Even though they are brothers their personality traits are considerably different. Raymond is more optimistic and considerate while Harold is more attentive and secure. This evidently shows us that the writer did not add them to the novel to serve one small, simple purpose.

If someone is hurt and cannot hunt for his family someone will step in to help and the favor would be returned if that is to happen to that family. Our textbook provides great examples to compare this behavior to my society. They give an example of a brother who is able to grow vegetables but his sister is unable to do so.

Individuals mainly travel to enjoy new views and experiences new memories. But, if people applied the appropriate behavior to their environment they would be able to enjoy new views and create new memories in their own atmosphere without traveling. Alain de Botton describes that weather we go far away or stay at home the enjoyment will be the same as long as we are looking to experience things in an optimistic way and recalls, “We meet people who have crossed desserts, floated on ice caps and cut their way though jungles—and yet in whose souls we would search in vain for evidence of what they have witnessed” (de Botton, 65). The people, who travel, fail to recognize the value of jungles or adventures they have in their own surroundings to fulfill their enjoyment, when for instance, they could have fulfilled it in their own neighborhood or environment by setting the same exact goals they have set to accomplish to their
