summary
charles arrives in france and finds things very different from when he left. at each village and checkpoint, he is subjected to the sneering of revolutionaries dedicated to what the narrator calls the new republic of \liberty, equality, fraternity, and death,\ each time a gate close behind him, charles feels on prison.
these soldiers accompany charles to paris as his \escort.\ upon arriving in paris, they deliver charles - whom they now call their \prisoner\ - to monsieur defarge. defarge demands to know what charges he is held, and is told that new laws are being enacted that may punish any emigrant who has not returned to france by now. defarge quietly asks charles if he ever returned to france in this, the age of \la guillotine\. charles asks also defarge to tell him, defarge refuses.

Explanation:

In the summary, Charles is taken to Paris and called a "prisoner" by the soldiers. This indicates that he is being held against his will, which relates to the theme of Imprisonment. Also, the new laws and the revolutionary atmosphere (with terms like "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity Death") suggest a time of upheaval. The old regime (as Charles left France and now finds it different) and the new revolutionary forces imply a struggle. The fact that Charles is accused (though we don't know the full charge yet) and is in a situation where he is not free (being escorted as a prisoner) ties in with Imprisonment.

Answer:

For the first summary entry: Theme Tracker - 6 (Imprisonment). Analysis: Charles is called a "prisoner" and is escorted against his will (as a prisoner would be), which clearly shows the theme of Imprisonment. For the second part (where he is to be taken to Monsieur Defarge): Theme Tracker - 6 (Imprisonment). Analysis: He is still in a situation where he is not free (being taken as if to face some consequence related to imprisonment - being a "prisoner" and now being taken to Defarge under the new laws which seem to be part of a system that can imprison him).
