Writing
Career(early years)
In 1833 Dickens’s first story, A Dinner at Poplar Walk was published in London periodical, Monthly Magazine. His first novel The Pickwick Papers get a great success in March 1836.
Third is Fagin. About him I think he is one of the most controversial figure. He is a bad guy and also a good guy. As a bad guy, his greedy ,cunning made him crazy and dead. But as a good guy he gives all children a place to live . Although Fagin lets the boys to steal ,but he also takes good care of them, he makes them happy and gives all this orphan a place to live. That why Oliver made a prayer for him!
About the book, I think, Dickens want to let the readers know the 19th-century London’s darkness, terror, violence, and deception! And also want us to see a boy named Oliver who had a tragic life but don’t lose his kindness. In a world full of poverty and crime ,he had many experience, he meet many people such as an odd man Fagin ,a brave boy Dodger, a gentleman Mr. Brownlow ,a pity girl Nancy, a ferocious guy Sikes… all of them, give Oliver a different life and each of them give the reader a different thought.
Career Writing(later years)
In late November 1851, Dickens moved into Tavistock House where he would write Bleak house ,Hard Times(1854) (1852~53), and Little Dorrit (1857). It was here he indulged in the amateur theatricals which are described in Forster’s “Life”. 狄更斯在1851年11月下旬搬进塔维斯托克楼, 狄更斯在 在那里他将写出《荒凉山庄》(1852~53). 《艰难时世》(1853)和《小杜丽》(1857)正是在这里, 他沉迷于业余戏剧,这是他的福斯特“生命”。
★Oliver Twist - The novel protagonist.Oliver is an orphan born in a workhouse,and Dickens uses his situation to criticize public policy toward the poor in 1830s England.Oliver is between nine and twelve years old when the main action of the novel occurs.Though treated with cruelty and surrounded by coarseness for most of his life,he is a pious,innocent child, and his charms draw the attention of several wealthy benefactors. His true identity is the central mystery of the novel.
•He criticise bourgeois and their morality 对资产者及其道德的辛辣批判 •Exploration of man’s inner conflicts 探究人物内部矛盾冲突 • Humor and satire Social Criticism 幽默、尖锐的社会批判
Dickens's novels works to expose social problems, such as almshouses, child labor, as well as gang absorption of young people involved in crime. This may also have the shadow of his experience. At the age of 12, his father got some trouble and went in prison, Dickens was sent to London ,a shoe polish field as an apprentice, working 10 hours a day. Perhaps because of this experience, makes Dickens more concerned about the living conditions of the working people who live in the lower rungs of society.
1833年,狄更斯的第一个故事 《在白杨城共进晚餐》 在伦敦的 期刊《月刊》上发表。1836年3月,他的第 一部小说《匹克威克外传》获得巨大成功。
In November 1836 As a novelist, Charles Dickens’s success continued. He created Oliver Twist (187~39), Nicholas Nickleby (1838~39), The Old Curiosity Shop and so on. 1836年11月,作为小说家的狄更斯的成功继续着,他创 作出了《雾都孤儿》 尼古拉斯. (1837~39) 、《尼古 拉斯 尼克贝尔》 (1838~39)、 《老古玩店》等作品。
A Tale of Two Cities (1859)and Great Expectations (1861) soon followed and would prove resounding successes. During this time, he was also the publisher and editor of and a major contributor to the Household Word and All the Year Round . 《双城记》(1859)和《远大前程》(1861)紧 随其后被证明是响亮的成功。这期间,他既是《家 常话》 和《常年》的出版商又是编辑,并作出重 大贡献。
