Man’s Fate, Part IV (continued)

Marital Obligation and Terrorism: (Personal Commentary)

As stated previously, marital confinement and constraints restrict Hemmelrich’s involvement in the revolution.

Malraux continues to revolve his dramatis personae around Ch’en, Malraux’s “model” for a terrorist: “Won’t I ever be in his place?” The emotional and psychological framework of his principal characters influence and determine their “means and mode of production.” Hemmelrich remains within the context of a proletariat: loss of independence and individuality, and into a state of subjugation.
