| Summary | "HARRY JOSCELYN" by Mrs. Oliphant is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Harry Joscelyn, a young man in turmoil after feeling alienated from his family and home, whose journey begins following a dramatic conflict that compels him to seek a new identity and life away from his past. Harry's inner struggles manifest through his impulsive decision to change his name and embark on a journey to Italy, hinting at themes of self-discovery and the desire for independence. At the start of the narrative, Harry Joscelyn, overwhelmed by anger and a sense of betrayal from his family, decides to abandon his past life and leave for Liverpool, where he contemplates his future. As he stands on the edge of a new chapter, he feels an impulsive determination to create a new life for himself. Upon boarding a ship bound for Leghorn, he takes the name "Isaac Oliver," marking the end of his former identity. The opening chapters establish Harry's intense emotional state, showcasing his disillusionment with his family and the dramatic upheaval that drives him to foreign shores. This conflict serves as a catalyst for the story, prompting a mix of fear and hope as he navigates the unfamiliarity of a new country and the challenges it presents.
