| Summary | "De kleine vossen" by Harriet Beecher Stowe is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The book explores themes of domestic life and interpersonal relationships, primarily through the lens of the main character, presumably a father figure who seeks to address the small but corrosive issues that arise within the household. It promises to delve into how these "little foxes," representing minor irritations and grievances, undermine familial happiness and unity. The opening of the novel presents a conversation between a father and his daughter, Jenny. They discuss the idea of addressing the winter evenings with a series of lectures based on a biblical text from the Song of Solomon, which warns against allowing small problems to ruin a vineyard. The father introduces the concept of "little foxes" that gnaw at domestic happiness, identifying aspects such as irritability, undue criticism, and discontent as those small vices that, though seemingly insignificant, can grow to create disharmony in family life. Through this setup, the father hints at a deeper exploration of the causes of unhappiness within households, setting the stage for a series of reflections on character, relationships, and the nature of domestic life.
