Comments by Treyton Whitehurst Most recent public comments by Treyton Whitehurst https://nowcomment.com/users/96892 This piece from the book largely evolves around Mr. Jaggers and his relationships with those around him. It compliments his lust for power, obsession with Drummle, and his ability to dive into people and see what they truly are on the inside. https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212975 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212975 Tue, 24 Nov 2020 13:52:09 -0500 Mr. Jaggers doesn't speak or toast to any of the other gentlemen there, not even Pip, which might allude to how he might put Drummle in a higher regard as Jagger might see him as worth his time compared to the other attendees. https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212973 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212973 Tue, 24 Nov 2020 13:49:57 -0500 This may be from his experience as a lawyer, but again calls back to his lust for power. He chose this person to be his servant as she had the power he craved and could use to his advantage. https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212972 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212972 Tue, 24 Nov 2020 13:48:43 -0500 She automatically drew her hand back when Mr. Jaggers reached for he other. She may have been in a similar situation before with either Jaggers or another person, and gained experience from it. Overall, the relationship between her and Jaggers is not good https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212971 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212971 Tue, 24 Nov 2020 13:45:59 -0500 The "men" around the table all start flexing on each other, to prove how strong they are after being enabled by Jaggers. It goes to show that they are still boys at heart and cannot really lose that part of themselves. https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212968 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212968 Tue, 24 Nov 2020 13:43:43 -0500 The way Molly looks around almost implies that she feels terrible about her position, maybe in a subtle way saying "look what you guys made me do." She seems to work for Jaggers under pressure rather than will. https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212967 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212967 Tue, 24 Nov 2020 13:41:43 -0500 The way that Mr. Jaggers speaks could be related to his position in society. He looks for and wants power. He already has a great amount of power, but it seems as though he cannot be satisfied with it. https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212966 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212966 Tue, 24 Nov 2020 13:39:09 -0500 Mr. Jaggers is intrigued with Drummle to a level close to Pip which shows how he can single out people from a group and select those he thinks admirable. He does not doe the same for Herbert or Startop because he might not see them as extraordinary as Pip https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212965 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212965 Tue, 24 Nov 2020 13:37:40 -0500 Pip always refers to Mr. Jaggers with highest regard, and labels all of his actions as intelligent, which shows Pip's admiration for his guardian. https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212963 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243162?scroll_to=2212963 Tue, 24 Nov 2020 13:33:50 -0500
