The Count of Monte Cristo
How is Dantès changed by his relationship to the Abbé and by what he learns from him?
Chapter XIII
Chapter XIII
This chapter shows the change that has occurred in Dantes during his fourteen years as prisoner. He no longer is the naïve youth from the story's beginning. Not only has his countenance changed, but also he is stronger and wiser thanks to the guidence of Abbe. Abbe Faria spends years educating Dantes in the sciences, literature, and languages. He also helps Dantes figure out who was responsible for his imprisonment. Thus, he instills vengeance in his young protégé. He sees Dantes as a son, thus before he dies of apoplexy, the Abbe tells Dantes of a treasure that is buried on the Isle of Monte Cristo.
