Charles Dickens is one of the greatest critical realist writers of the Victoria Age. Make a brief comment on his novels.
选项
答案
Charles Dickens, in his career as a novelist, wrote many novels, and presented to us a comprehensive picture of the 19th century England, particularly London. In his early novels, he exposes and criticizes one or more specific social evils in each. For example, the dehumanizing workhouse system and the dark, criminal underworld life in Oliver Twist; the enslaving education in Nicholas Nickleby ; the legal fraud in The Pickwick Paper; the debtor’s prison in David Copper field ; the money-worship that brings tragedy in Dombey and Son , etc. With an eye to social reform, Charles Dickens is optimistic in his seemingly bitter attack of the sins. His later works show the novelist as a highly conscious and mature artist in that stories are much better constructured, institutions set as metaphors for a repressive social psychology. All of his novels, except A Tale of Two Cities, present a criticism of the complicated and foundamental social institutions and morals of the Victorian England, for example, the legal system that deprives the poor of their rights in Bleak House, the political management that leads to the imprisonment of the innocent in Little Dorrit, the Utilitarianism that corrupts young minds in Hard Times, and the degenerating atmosphere in Great Expectations. The attacks become more urgent and passionate, with their pessimistic tone quite different from that in his early novels.
