Chapters 6-9
Candide in these chapters keeps going through problems. He gets attacked, he moves. But yet he find Cunegonde. Once again they get caught together and Candide is the one who gets attacked by Don Issachar. But why would Don Issachar attack Candide. He obviously didn’t even care for Cunegonde. She was bought by him under his possession and under another mans possession too. Candide kills Don Issachar, but does killing make things better? Does this mean that he will be with Cunegonde? I don’t understand what the meaning of this attack, than death, and than running away means. I am not sure if I am understanding Candide so well. I understand the situations I understand what is going on. But in Voltaire’s writing everything means something. Everything has its reason for happening and is connected to something and I am not finding the connection in some chapters.
