Transcribed from the 1897 Robert Hayes edition by David Price
"The Man" by Bram Stoker is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story introduces themes of ambition, justice, and gender roles against a backdrop of family dynamics and societal expectations, centering on the characters Stephen Norman and Harold An Wolf. The opening of "The Man" presents an immersive scene in a quaint old churchyard, where a young man and woman, Stephen and Harold, discuss profound topics initially sparked by the innocent musings of two children. The narrative transitions to Stephen's father, the Squire, as he grapples with the birth of his daughter, which complicates his expectations of having a male heir to continue the family lineage. This connection of the past with present themes of ambition and acceptance for one's identity sets a contemplative tone and hints at the challenges Stephen will face in navigating her societal role and her father's expectations.
