In high school I had to do a report on Nathaniel Hawthorne. His great-grandfather was a Puritan that had overseen some of the Salem witch trials. I remember reading that he felt immense guilt for what his great-grandfather had done and even though he held no fault of his own it stayed with him all his life. Generational guilt can affect the mental health of innocent people. I remember feeling really sorry for Hawthorne, as it was said there were times he believed he didn't even deserve to be happy because of something he had absolutely nothing to do with. That is not healthy, and it certainly isn't some righteous form of justice.

Not all of history was recorded on video. Even not that history in times of movies (let's say about 100+ years ago). We don't even have pictures for most of history. But we have reports. The accuracy of those reports might be debatable. Most of human history as we know it is only available via books. And books have a very big advantage: no director gives you an idea how that all looked. Thus the brain of the reader makes up the picture. And those pictures are always perfect. At least half of my entertainment is still in books. I have still books but for holidays I prefer "electrical books". There is space for hundred of books in them. But my most loved books are owned on paper AND on devices. And I read them over and over again. Like those JRR Tolkien books.

As a German born a dozen years after the awful regime was dethroned, I'm often confronted with "my guilt" as a German stemming from that time. I am lucky to know that neither my parents (15 years old by the end of the war), nor my grandparents were ever part of those crimes beside being Germans (one granfather was forcefully sterilized for being epileptic, the other was 2 weeks in Sachsenhausen because his political view was different and many people were catched for at least some time after the failed attempt on the leader's life). I myself would have been in dire straits for not having married a German lady but a Filipina and daring to raise 3 mixed-race children. Nevertheless I was often questioned abroad for those bad things that happened 70 to 80 years ago. I never brushed it aside. I always answered sincerely and most people believed me and treated me as the man I am and not as the son ot those dreaded people. I was always judged by MY deeds and not by what my nation had done these many years back. It wasn't easy for me and it wasn't easy for them. My father in law was a soldier in the US army defending his home against the Japanese. I myself have visited Denmark, France, the Netherlands, Greece and Great Britain - all countries that were victims of the German army or even of great atrocities done to their civil population while being occupied. Those that have lost family members don't forget easily. My hometown had that bridge that according to General Eisenhower reduced the war by 2 weeks and was worth it's weight in gold. Nowadays the remaining towers on my side of the Rhine are made to be "peace museum". And that dedication was made almost 50 years ago. We had memorials and many US veterans had joined over the years. In just 2 days my town sponsors a "Timmerman memorial walk". Timmerman was the officer that led the platoon that conquered the bridge (sadly he died early after the war). But March is the month of 1945 where this bridge was center stage in history. WE remember in this country and we will never forget. We will never forget that it were US GIs that brought us freedom of suppression as well. There were bad times and it seems bad times are going to be repeated over and over again. Just these days I was reminded of a British prime minister who went to Berlin to ask for peace. He returned with the "victorious" message that he had secured "Peace in out times". Some time later the war began against Poland which would later grow into WW2. If you want lunatics to stop doing crazy things, you need to say"No" and you need to mean it. Anything else is useless. Pleading will NOT keep the peace. As you see I have learned my lessons. Sadly my country does not have the power to say "No". I'm really saddened for this situation and the seeming inability of the world to stop it.

I would disagree here. Ben's take on the Bible is a little...off. When the Bible says, "You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments" That sounds A LOT like the Bible "saying how it SHOULD work". (And don't even get me started on the Amalekites.)

I just moved to a rural area and live in a very tiny “house”. I had zero space for my books until just this week. We built a small, one room library which doubles as our pit toilet (we can still have them here, we checked), and I added all these studs inside my walls to hold shelves. Lots of shelves! For my precious books and A Tale of Two Cities is one of those books. I plan to read it while floating around on my pond in my small rowboat. I cant wait!

2:00 Even Marx could agree with you and Dickens when he said "The tradition of all dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brains of the living. And just as they seem to be occupied with revolutionizing themselves and things, creating something that did not exist before, precisely in such epochs of revolutionary crisis they anxiously conjure up the spirits of the past to their service, borrowing from them names, battle slogans, and costumes in order to present this new scene in world history in time-honored disguise and borrowed language."

That's a good line at the end. "What makes great authors great is their insight into human nature. What makes us stupid today is that we believe there is a fixed, non-malleable human nature, that basically we can just wish people into being good. And that if we treat everybody as though they are good, this will make them good, and this is foolishness. You have to acknowledge the dark side of human nature in order to understand the value of institutions like religion. Or on a foreign policy level, you have to understand that people can be ruthless and evil in pursuit of their goals. And you need to face up to that if you wish to be realistic about the world and to fight back the predations of evil people."

You have misquoted Ben, accidentally, in a very serious way. What he actually says is that "what makes us stupid today is that we [meaning many moderns] believe there is *no* fixed and non-malleable human nature....." You are agreeing with him, but you left out the operative "NO." It's the moderns (Marxists? humanists?) who believe humans are perfectible and a utopian society can be reached. He is arguing for the Judeo-Christian and classical view, which recognizes the inherent, dark side of human nature. As, of course, does Chesterton in the quote posted below by Jim Whelan.

I've read all of Dickens' works two and three times over. Best writer ever IMHO. The one thing that remains constant, is that no matter the century, time or era, people are and still have the same problems and issues no matter what is current or past. Great Expectations is the the best example of this. Pip has quite a journey, education and eye-opening view on the ills of man. Read it. The Dickensian world is ours only 180 years ago. Nothing much has changed in the human race. Read any of the classics and you will find this to be absolutely true in every instance.

I know a lot more about screenwriting and a common complaint of Christopher Nolan is that he uses too much exposition which, in my opinion, isn’t true. Those people would drop dead if they saw how much exposition is in Two Cities. And not all classics need a ton of exposition. To Kill a Mockingbird is one of my favorite books of all time but it lets the dialogue tell the story instead of the author having to use a bunch of exposition.

In reference to the Bible and the sins being passed on to the third and fourth generation is because sin brings a curse and this curse is generational. This is why many times if there is a alcoholic father, alcoholism will continue to show up in that blood line. And what comes with the generational curse is what the Bible calls a familiar spirit which could also be called a demon. So the question is, are the children responsible for the sins of the parents or grandparents? To answer that we need to ask, if our parents or grandparents were righteous in the eyes of God are the children then also righteous? I think the Bible makes it clear that the answer to both is, no.

An innocent person cannot suffer for the sins of the wicked. The fact that the Bible talks about generational punishment in later chapters and elsewhere presupposes that you've read earlier verses. In the section of the Ten Commandments it refers to visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children [Exodus 20:5 in the section on idol worship] ..to the 3rd and/or 4th generation however, people seem to leave out the end which says: "..to those who hate me". In other words, when offspring see firsthand, the sinful ways of their parents and/or grandparents and continues to act in the same way, they are held accountable. Why the Bible states 3rd or 4th and not just say 4th and other questions are too long to deal with in this comment section. So, no Ben, the Bible is NOT relating that it's "just human nature to take revenge on the past generation's sins. That conclusion is anti-Bible as specifically stated in Ezekiel many other places. Abraham's father was an idol worshiper and in fact that was his business. Was Abraham punished by God because of this? Of course not.

Thank you for the excellent review Ben- it’s one Dickens book I haven’t had the pleasure of reading to date- David Copperfield & Nicholas Nickelby are my favourites~ but you’ve inspired this aging composer to definitely delve into ‘two cities’ next - John- Valley Forge 🦜 PS: would also love to hear your takes on Brave New World & 1984 if time allows for you in the future! 😍
