The Piece of String

Guy De Maupassant

Summary

 

Guy de Maupassant was born in France. He is the 19^th century French author. He is remembered as a master of the story. He is also a representative of Naturalist school. His stories often reflect human selfishness, wickedness, envy, greed, cruelty and injustices of humanity and other bad qualities. In the story "The Piece of String" he has presented injustice to a main character and false faces of society to the justice. Hauchecorn is a main character who didn't steal a wallet but accused of stealing a purse. He tries much to prove himself as innocent but nobody believes on him. 

It was a market day in Goderville of France. All the peasants and their wife go there to make trade. The people don't look very smart their and their body is a bit bending due to plough the land for whole week. They are wearing village garment. Some of these fellows dragged a cow or a calf at het end of rope. And their wives are whipping their animals. Woman were carrying large basket from which came forth the heads of chicken or ducks. Some wagon was passing by the road some are riding on them.

There is crowd in the town a mingle multitude of men and beasts. The horn of cattle, the high, long-napped hats of wealthy peasants, the headdresses of women come to the surface of that sea. And the sharp, shill, barking voices made a continuous, wild din, while above if occasionally raised a huge burst of laughter from the sturdy lungs of a merry peasant or a prolonged bellow from a cow tied fast to the wall of a house. There was the smell of the stable, of milk, of hay and of perspiration, giving off that half-human, half-animal odor that is peculiar to county folk.

 

Maitre Hauchecorn of Breaute had just arrived at Goderville, and he was directing his steps toward the public square when he perceived up on the ground a little piece of string. He thinks that everything is useful for him and bent to pick up a little piece of string from the street. When he sees his enemy M. Malandain is observing him, he is ashamed to be picking up a piece of string from the dirt, so he pretends he is looking for something else. From the start, therefore, Hauchecorn characterized as crafty and deceitful, misleading others about his intentions.

 

He was soon lost in the noisy and slowly moving crowd, which was busy with interminable bargaining. The women had taken out the chicken for selling and some people are having some dishes in Jourdain's. There were vehicles of all kinds, carts, gigs, wagons, dumpcarts are standing at the shop. They are busy in buying the goods in low price and the shopkeepers are busy in convincing the customers for getting high price. Some people are coming and some people are returning to their homes. They can buy the goods, foods, and animals in the market day. They are very careful to the venders who could cheat or steal the things. 

Suddenly the drum beat in the court before the house. Everybody pay attention to its jerky voice. It was told that there was lost this morning on the road to Benzeville, between nine and ten o'clock, a black leather pocketbook containing five hundred francs and some business paper. The people are requested to return to the mayor's office or to MaitreFortneHoulbreque of Manneville, there will be twenty francs reward. After sometime one officer comes and calls Hauchecorn to visit the mayor to his office. He frightens to the mayor and follows the officer. The mayor accuses him something picking up on the road Benzeville. Hauchecorn denied that he only picked up a little piece of string. But the mayor insisted that Monsieur Malandain has seen him picking a wallet and searching on the ground if there was other money. ButHauchecorn denied and repeated the same thing that he was taken only string. He requested them to search wallet in his body. They searched but didn't find anything on him.

The news had spread that an old man stole a wallet. The old man started to tell about his event when he picked up a string not a wallet to everybody. But nobody believes on him rather they laugh at his logic. The night came but he started to visit people and tell the story that he was innocent.

Next day about one pm, the lost wallet was found with 500 francs. The man couldn't read and gave that wallet to his employer instead of giving to MaitreFortneHoulbreque . Hauchecorn knows the news and gets happy and started to tell his story. Next week he goes to the market and a horse dealer man called him and told that it was a trick of old man, a story of string. Moreover he explained that there is one that finds and there is one that reports. At any rate he is mixed with it. He understood that they are still accusing him of stealing that purse. He tries to protest it but all the table began to laugh.

The more people accuse him, the more Hauchecorn insists he is innocent, becoming more and more elaborate and obsessed with his defense, which, ironically, leads him to be more and more disbelieved. His past comes back to haunt him, he becomes more and more but  peasant ridicule, and eventually some months later he gets sick and dies saying a piece of string, a little piece of string.

Question answers

a.      Why cannot Hauchecorne prove innocent even after the purse is found with the money?

It was assumed that Hauchecorne found a purse on the way. He was called in Mayor's office to ask about the thing which he has pick up from the street. Hauchecorne has picked up a piece of string. But his enemy has seen him picking something on the ground and thought that he might found a purse on the way. Then he has complained to the mayor that he saw Hauchecorne picking up a purse and search around if there is any other money. Hauchcorne takes out a piece of string from his pocket and shows the moyor and explains that it was only a piece of string and it is picked because which can be useful for any purpose. But the mayor laughs his logic. He believes that he is lying.  Next day, the lost purse is found. Hauchecorne gets excited because all the people's suspicion is getting over. But the situation is reversed people doesn't believe him that he was not found that purse. They believe that he found a purse and make a trick to cheat other people. 

b.      How is the character of Hauchecorne in your view? Evaluate him objectively.

In fact Hauchecorne is not a bad man. But he tries to be a good man of the society. He tries to prove hat he has not picked up a piece of string on the way. It was nonsense thing for them that he was picking a string a useless thing. The string was useful thing for him. He tries hundred time to prove him as innocent person but never be believed. He was obsessed person and tries to prove that he is the innocent person. But society doesn't believe him and he gets sick due to that ridicule event of his life and finally dies due to this piece of string. It was not necessary him to prove that he has not taken that purse, in one point people may realize that he has not taken the purse.  He is afraid of the social stigma that people wouldn't accuse him of that he find a purse on the way and doesn't return. So he started to tell all the people about his story of string. When people tell this story people started to laugh at him.

A Respectable Woman by Kate Chopin- class 12 unit two English

 

Unit two

               A respectable woman

Kate Chopin

Kate Chopin is famous American novelist and short-story writer. In the story she has presented a female character "Baroda's" inner conflict as she finds herself attracted to her husband's friend.  

Mrs. Baroda is not much happy to know that her husband's friend Gouvernail is coming to spend a week or two on the plantation. She has heard about him many times but never seen before. He was her husband's college friend and working as journalist, he is the man of town than a village. She has made an image in her mind about her husband's friend as tall, slim, cynical, with eyeglasses, and his hands in his pockets; she doesn’t like him. When he arrives she finds nothing matching with the reality and her imagination. He is not much tall, cynical and not wearing eyeglasses. She rather likes him when he is presented himself. There no reason to her why she has liked her. She doesn't find any promising traits as her husband have. On the contrary he remains mute and receptive before her chatty eagerness to make him at home and in face of Gaston's frank and wordy hospitality. Her husband was like courteous towards her but his friend doesn't make direct appeal to her approval or even esteem.

Once they are planting when Gouvernail smokes his cigar lazily and listens attentively to Gaston's experience as a sugar planter. He doesn’t care to fish and displayed no eagerness to go out and kill groscvecs when Gaston proposed doing so.

Gouvernail's personality puzzles her. There are many dissimilarity between her husband and his friend but she likes him. Indeed, he was a lovable, inoffensive fellow. In this mood she leaves her husband and guest, for the most part, alone together. Her action doesn't matter to Gouvernail. She doesn't find any emotion in his heart. And asks when he is going to his home. She says that he is bothering her. Her husband tries to assure that he will not trouble her. Mrs. Baroda says, "No. I should like him better if he did, if he was more like others, and I had to plan somewhat for his comfort and enjoyment." He husband looks at her troubled eyes and helps in her dressing room. He tries to convince her wife as not to take any commotion (sexual excitement) over him.   Her husband has told her that he was clever but she doesn't find any commotion on him. Her husband gets agree with her wife as so lazy he is, he is run down by overwork now. She is expecting him to be interesting, at least. So she doesn't want to live there and tells that she is going to city to have her spring gown and return when his guest returns back to his home.

That a night she is sitting alone on a bench. She had never known her thoughts or her intentions to be so confused. He has the feeling of a distinct necessity to quit her home in the morning. In the darkness there appears a man with a cigarette in his hand. He sat beside her and gave white scarf which her husband had told him to bring for her. She doesn't have any interest to that cloth. The man wishes to talk to her 3and starts about night that is fresh and cold but she doesn't respond to him.

Gouvernail was not a self conscious man to the feelings of woman but this night his mood is different. He talks to her freely and intimately in a low, hesitating drawl that is not unpleasant to hear. He is talking about his college days with Gaston. She is vaguely getting what he was saying. She is not thinking in his words drinking in the tone of his voice. She wants to reach out her hand in the darkness and touch him with sensitive tips of her fingers upon the face or the lips. She wants to draw close to him and whisper against his cheek. The stronger impulsive grows to bring herself near him but she goes away from him because she thinks herself as a respectable woman.

Mrs. Baroda is greatly tempted that night to tell her husband but she keeps that secret. She says that there are some battles in life which a human being must fight alone.

When Gaston rise in the morning she has already gone to the town and doesn't return until Gouvernail lives that house. Gaston talks to bring him back in coming summer but his wife strongly doesn't allow him to bring back. But before a year ended she proposed her husband to go to visit Gouvernail. Her husband surprises and delights to her suggestions. Husband thanks his wife for overcoming her dislike for him. She laughingly says, "After passing a long, tender kiss upon his lips, I have overcome everything! You will see. This time I shall be very nice to him".

The so-called “young man” stays at home and writes his thesis of the development of the twentieth century novel. The “young woman” works in a hospital.

They are living in a small house which has high ceiling and paned window that looks like an elegant cottage. From the window of study room the young man can see out over the rooftops and Moreton Bay figures where they walked with their collie. The neighbours are cautious to their dog.

They lived in the expensive outer suburbs where the neighbours were good. They were barely seen and never heard. But now there is the noise of spitting and washing and daybreak watering comes as a shock. It takes six months to understand him that the Macedonian family is not killing each other but just talking to each other. The old widower police man most of the time remains busy in hammering nails in to wood and pulling them out.

The young man feels that their all the activities are observed by their neighbour. His neighbour are not feeling comfortable that a man writing thesis and his wife working in kitchen.  The young man disgust his neighbour because a little boy urined in the street.  He doesn't like a little boy standing at the fence and looking at them with cobalt eyes.

In autumn the young couple clears the rubbish from their backyard and tries to plant leeks, onions, cabbage, Brussels sprouts and broad beans and this caused the neighbours to come to the fence and offers advice about spacing, hilling and mulching. In this time a big woman gives them a bagful of garlic cloves to plant. Young couple built a henhouse. The neighbour watches it falling down and the police widower enters through a fence without inviting and repairs it for them. They don't understand his any words.

In the winter the couple found themselves smiling to their neighbours. They offered heads of cabbage and took gifts of grappa and firewood. Husband gets busy in writing his thesis and wife talks about her days in the hospital. They work together in their household activity. They felt proud and superior when their parent came to visit them.

In the winter they kept ducks, pig, silent muscovies. In the spring Macedonian family shows them how to slaughter and to pluck and to dress. In this time they sit around and discuss about their butcher profession. Their neigbour tells story which young couple barely understand.   

The young couple unexpectedly found that they are going to have a child. Their friends has married earlier but not having any child. They are not planned for pregnancy although it happens to them. She arranged for maternity leave. No longer their neighbours knows about pregnancy. People smile tirelessly at them. The man in the deli (readymade food shop) gives her small present chocolates and him packets of cigarettes that he stores at home not being a smoker. Italian woman begins to offer names. Greek women stops the young woman in the street, pulls her skirt up and feels her belly, and tells it should be a boy. The woman of next door has knitted a baby suit and gave to her. But they feel flattering. The widower police man is making noise and the young man thinking of complaining to the police. The widower man comes over with barrowful of wood scraps for their fire.

At a night he calls midwife because his wife is feeling uncomfortable. He made hot bath for her and makes her walk, rubs his wife's back and feeds her ice-cream. When he goes outside to bring some firewood, he sees twelve faces watching from his fence. Young wife gets very hard to have baby. The husband observes her cry, sweating, struggle, pain and courage and feels power of her and sophistication of her. She is kept on pushing and pushing but there is unseen barrier. Suddenly it is smashed and newly baby is born. She looks on her baby's face and keeps in her breast. A boy she says. The young man hears shouting next door. He goes to see them, on the Macedonian side of the fence a small queue of people are cheering and expressing their happiness. The young man starts to weep and says the twentieth century novel is not prepared him for this.
