I have noticed several postings I would like to comment on in addition to adding my own little spin to this discussion. I believe Daisy was simply acting in the way of a young American girl. Do I think she knew she was acting inappropriately? Only insofar as she knew others did not approve of her actions.
The question here is one of two seperate cultures. Also, keep in mind here that the people who were criticizing Miss Miller were several generations removed from her. What they deemed inappropriate behavior may have been so in thier generation, but not for Daisy. I also believe Daisy was dull-witted enough to not catch on to everyones true feelings on the matter until Mrs. Walker made a point of acting her displeasure directly to Daisy. I was going to say something else here Oh yeah, I remember.
Daisy knew she was a flirt, she even admits it. But did she know her actions were inappropriate? No. And after she found out they were, did she care? Obviously not. I agree with the responses of several people that Mr.
G was indeed nothing more that a distraction, a means to make Mr. W jealous. I also believe, however, that Mr. G was a way for Mr.
W to get distance enough between he and Daisy that he might observe and ascertain her true nature. This was accomplished, and he realized Daisy was a flirt, although a beautiful one. I would like to point out one thing that I dont think anyone else noticed, or at least if they did, didnt talk about. Both the beginning and the end of the novel refer to some woman (a foreign lady) in Geneva whom Mr.
W is extremely devoted. My question is, what makes what Mr. W does with this foreign lady any better that what Miss Miller does with Mr. G? On the discussion question, Daisy was rebelling. She was rebelling against a culture who thought what she did was wrong.
What I mean is, she continued to flirt after she found out that it was deemed inappropriate, (although I still hold to the opinion that she didnt know what she was doing wrong until that point) which indicates rebellion, at least to me. Did anyone else think the ending of the book rather abrupt? It was like, one minute shes talking and laughing in the Collesseum and the next, shes dead.
