Charles Dickens Reflection on Society in Hard Times, Oliver Twist, Nic
Charles dickens Reflection on Society in tall(prenominal) Times, Oliver Twist, Nicholas Nickleby, and David CopperfieldIn this essay I will be examining how and why Dickens chose to commenton the society in which he lived through his novels. I will beexamining Hard Times, Oliver Twist, Nicholas Nickelby and DavidCopperfield.Charles Dickens was considered to be one of the greatest Englishnovelists during the Victorian period, and during this period,novelists had a tradition of commenting on issues touch on societythrough their work. They chose to express their views like this so hoi polloi would realise exactly what is taking place in the town orvill maturate they are living in.Charles Dickens had a very disturb childhood, members of his familywere sent to prison and he was sent to work at the age of twelve in aBlacking Factory he became miserable. He escaped from this by writingfictional texts in school he then developed his existing skills andmade rapid progress. From the entire wound he went through, hedecided to express his pain through his words.The commandment system was extremely poor. Only children with workingparents would be educated, w presentas poorer children would have to work.In the novel Hard Times, the education system was firm, harsh and rumpQuadruped. GraminivorousAge known by marks in mouth.This straight-to-the-point definition of a horse suggests that thet distributivelyer spoon-feeds the young, tender, innocent children with uselessfacts. The word Graminivorous highlights that these children are being turned into adults mentally because he fed the innocentchildren with facts that adults will commonly know. Everything is sosimplified for him, the teacher does... ... was irony that Dickens utilize here theword parlour suggests that it is a pleasant home but whats going oninside is totally the opposite.In conclusion, Dickens has used his works successfully to comment onsociety because all of the issues that were affecting all classes of battalion, he included them so we could authentically understand what went onduring the Victorian times. I have learnt a lot from this, about howpeople lived and how they were treated. I have learnt that these twoperiods of time were totally different to each other. The novel thathad the most impact on me was Nicholas Nickelby this is becauseDickens made us feel sympathetic for the characters, he made me feelas if I was there as one of the characters because this novel was soconvincing. I really felt a lot of sympathy for the children who hadto suffer from this inhumane cruelty.
