THE CONSENSUS EXERCISE

In a house, there is a young woman married to a man who works very hard. She feels neglected. When her husband goes off on still another trip, the young wife meets an attractive man who invites her to his house. She spends the night, at dawn she leaves, knowing her husband is coming back. Alas! The bridge to her home is blocked by a madman who kills everyone who comes near him. The young wife follows the river and meets the ferryman, but he demands thirty dollars to take her to the other side. The young wife has no money. She runs back to her lover and asks for thirty dollars; he refuses to help. The woman remembers that a platonic friend lives close by. She runs to him and explains her plight. The friend refuses to help; she has disillusioned him by her conduct. Her only choice is to go by the bridge in spite of the danger. The madman kills her.

In what order do you hold the principles (woman, husband, lover, madman, ferryman and friend) responsible for the tragedy?
