Decoding May 9, 1793: The impetus of a mythical romantic thriller

By Iris Judge

One moment of rage. A fleeting instant of ill judgment. An irrevocable consequence. The tantalizing event that shocked the readers. The lasting trauma that affected the story to the end. One fateful night; so many unanswered questions. The dominance of the night of May 9, 1793, in the Poldark novels, is intriguing. Poldark is a historical novel. As a fine example of other books of this genre, the story is about a period in the past. The twelve Poldark novels offer the reader an appealing package where one travels back in time to experience life as it once was in the Cornwall of the 18 century. However, the importance of May 9, 1793, casts its shadow over the entire saga. The first book starts by anticipating a union between the principal character and his beloved, and the last book ends under the imminence of the impact of what came after the union took place. May 9, 1793, is at the center of the circle that makes the saga complete. The position the author has accorded to this date is not of historical value. Rather, May 9, 1793, entails a delicate combination of mystery and sentimentality. Readers and principal characters alike question what happened on that date. We are all left to our own devices to imagine the truth the author has deprived us of. Guesswork and imagination, hence, become integral parts of appreciating the Poldark novels. But the author is far from keeping vital information to himself. In a style of his own, the author has saturated the text of Poldark with subliminal information, giving away its secrets. Poldark is like a box of literary treasures under the lock of May 9, 1793. This book is the key to help you unlock it.
