概要

 The Warden is the inaugural novel in Anthony Trollopes celebrated series, the Chronicles of Barsetshire, which humorously critiques the Church of England during his era, alongside the religious controversies and the role of the press. This marks Trollopes fourth novel. The narrative follows Mr. Septimus Harding, a gentle and elderly warden of Hirams Hospital and precentor of Barchester Cathedral, set in the fictional Barsetshire. The story unfolds as a passionate young reformer, John Bold, initiates a campaign to highlight the inequity in how the charitys funds are distributed between its beneficiaries—the bedesmen—and Mr. Harding himself. Driven by a sense of public duty and his romantic ties to Eleanor, Bolds actions lead to a lawsuit, prompting Mr. Harding to seek counsel from his determined son-in-law, Dr. Grantly. As Bold rallies the press to his cause, the editor of The Jupiter, Tom Towers, publishes editorials portraying Harding as neglectful and self-serving. This portrayal is further fueled by satirical commentators, Dr. Pessimist Anticant and Mr. Popular Sentiment, who serve as caricatures of the likes of Thomas Carlyle and Charles Dickens.
