Is it true that he only uses his knowledge of this science twice? I am not sure. It seems to me that he want to protect his reputation. He also admits to worshiping Mariam, but in spite of his statement I have my doubts about his behaviour.Mercedes.

They were cultured people, very sensitive to music, but they were incapable of empathizing with other human beings. I think that Collins chose Lucrezia Borgia´s opera to write this chapter because it is the most suitable for the occasion. It is perfect to understand how Fosco is.Mercedes.

Although he made important revisions for the 1861 edition, I think that some reiterations are due to this fact. In my opinion it makes the novel easy to read without a dictionary. The book is similar to a current soap opera. It is necessary some rhetorical Mercedes.
