Summary "Clarissa Harlowe; or the History of a Young Lady — Volume 3" by Samuel Richardson is an epistolary novel written during the early 18th century. This volume continues to delve into the tumultuous life and experiences of the young protagonist, Clarissa Harlowe, as she navigates the complexities of love, familial obligation, and social pressures amidst a backdrop of moral dilemmas. The opening of this volume presents a series of letters that set the tone for Clarissa’s ongoing struggle. Her correspondence with her friend, Miss Howe, reveals her deep turmoil over her situation with Mr. Lovelace, who employs manipulative tactics to win her over. Clarissa expresses grief and regret for the compromises she has made, feeling trapped between her family's expectations and her desires. As Lovelace schemes to separate her from her family's control, the letters highlight the psychological tension she endures, marked by her fluctuating emotions and desperate longing for autonomy. The reader witnesses the mounting pressure on Clarissa as she confronts her choices, setting the stage for further complications in her already precarious position.
