Be sure to reference other passages from the novella as well as utilize various resources to support your thesis. Note that this passage gives reference to four of the key players in the novella.

She gave me a message: she told me to tell you. She told me to tell you that she never was engaged to that handsome Italian. I am sure I am very glad; Mr. Giovanelli hasn’t been near us since she was taken ill. I thought he was so much of a gentleman; but I don’t call that very polite! A lady told me that he was afraid I was angry with him for taking Daisy round at night. Well, so I am; but I suppose he knows I’m a lady. I would scorn to scold him. Any way, she says she’s not engaged. I don't know why she wanted you to know; but she said to me three times — "Mind you tell Mr. Winterbourne." And then she told me to ask if you remembered the time you went to that castle, in Switzerland. But I said I wouldn’t give any such messages as that. Only, if she is not engaged, I’m sure I’m glad to know it.



How is the novella Daisy Miller summed up in this one passage? What does the passage tell you about the characters, plot, and theme?

Answer:

Explanation:

The contrast between life and death becomes prominent towards the end of the story. This story ending is not a very happy ending but a realistic one. "She gave me a message: she told me to tell you. She told me to tell you that she never was engaged to that handsome Italian. I am sure I am very glad; Mr Giovanni hasn't been near us since she was taken ill. I thought he was so much of a gentleman; but I don't call that very polite!'" This is very sad to hear if you are in position. He really loved her and she loved him but she was playing with his heart. Also, the fact that Mr. Giovanni did not come around anymore shows his intentions were not the same. Love and death is a sensitive subject that shows throughout the story. These contrasts are what makes the story interspersing and keep the readers on the edge of their seats. If these contrasts were solved or there were no conflict would the story be as good? The story would possibly be completely different.
