England in the 18th century should not be much different from China at that time.
The awakening of women's awareness of power, from today's point of view, is so precious.
I stubbornly think that the duke is a bitch, and it's okay to use her as a tool to give birth to a son, and it's okay to have an affair. It's not an insult to get an affair on her best friend's head?
She's right, you don't have so many girls in England, you have to get on my only friend?
Of course, Elizabeth is not a good bird either.
Asking me, a new woman in the 21st century, to look at the miserable lives of women in the 18th century really strikes me as unreasonable.
If a wife does not give birth to a son who can inherit the family property, she has not fulfilled her obligations as a wife, and therefore does not have the right to be a wife.
The wife had to put up with her husband's anecdotes, and even put up with her lover to live in her own home.
In the face of all this, the only thing he can do is to endure and wait for him to tire of his lover.
Ridiculous!
There is a dialogue in the play, the Duke is the only man in England who does not love the Duchess. Reminds me of Diana, it really is as deep as the sea when entering a wealthy family.
Helpless, a sigh.
