Revert[edit]

KAyLiE4kAyLiE: The reason for the revert was due to the fact that the personality section was simply a long, long essay. There is nothing wrong in there being a character analysis section for Madame Defarge, but writings on Wikipedia should be as concise as possible. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dthomsen8 (talkcontribs) 18:33, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Untitled[edit]

As suggestions: quotes are not necessary, although even if you chose to retain a selection, the citation in parentheses should not be page numbers, since different editions of the same book exist. I would suggest something like "Book the Third, Chapter 3."

The second and third paragraphs seem to be taken from Sparknotes: http://www.sparknotes.com/lit/twocities/canalysis.html. We should change this to avoid volating copyrights. 128.208.60.88 (talk) 01:18, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Popular culture[edit]

In the science fiction television series, Defiance, there is a character, Stahma Tarr. She seems to have most of the cleverness in their union but is outwardly merely a good wife to her powerful husband. Near the end of the episode, A Well Respected Man, after she had successfully manipulated the politics of the city for her husband to fill a vacant spot on the town council, she is seen knitting or doing some type of alien crochet why making an exquisitely subtle but clever remark to the lawman of the town. Given her character and that she was knitting seems to be a reference to Madame Defarge.Halconen (talk) 18:46, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Madame Defarge as a victim

It seems obvious that madame Defarge should be wieved and portrayed as a victim. More specifically of marquis d´Evremonde(= "marquis Anyone") He is the true villain of the piece whos evil makes itself felt even after his own death. Therese Defarge should be seen as an Antagonist as opposed to a Villain. Who could go through what she has suffered without becoming hard and vengeful? Her actions towards Charles and Lucie should not be defended - but well Herself! The l´Ancien regim as described by Dickens explicitly only reaps the harvest that they themselves has sown! Miss Pross becoming permanently deaf must be seen as a divine punishment for her role in madame Defarges death.---- — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.130.31.203 (talk) 11:13, 22 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
