Charles DickensCharles Dickens (1812-1870), was the most eminent novelist in the early Victorian period. Dickens came from a poor background. When he was young, his father was imprisoned for debt, and he had to leave school and work in a shoe factory. He almost received no formal education, but he worked hard and did many readings on his own. Then he wrote for a pictorial book, The Pickwick Papers, which became very popular and he started his lifelong writing career. Dickens was a prolific writer. He wrote 20-odd novels and many other writings all his life.Dickens’s novels are a reflection of his own childhood, suffering in a blacking shoe factory and visiting his father in a debtor’s prison. So the archetypal Dickensian hero or heroine is often an orphan or a child whose parents, though still alive, are as well as dead to them. They find themselves alone in the heartless world, without family love and any sense of security, ignored by society and struggle for survive.Dickens’s writing feature is basically optimistic in the first two stages. While in the third stage, he becomes more and more gloomy. He is frustrated and despaired about man’s cruelty to his fellow creatures. So the later phase of his career sees him painting a social picture disconcertingly dismal and agonizing. Dickens’s province is the whole of English society of his time. He gives readers a bird’s-eye view of the panorama of English life. Dickens is essentially an intuitive artist. Spontaneity was his trade mark. His genius is basically comic. Grotesque effect and melodramatic effect are two notable feature of Dickens’s humorous narratives. Besides, Dickens is highly critical of his age. Social criticism is a hallmark of all his works. He stands forever on the side of the poor and feels adamant about the just and righteous nature of their struggles for survival.Oliver Twist is one of Dickens’s famous novels. The hero, called Oliver, is an orphan. He was born in England, in a very old orphanage and when he was a baby, his mother was dead. And then, he was regarded as goods, given to him or her. Finally, he met a very kind old man-Mr. Brown. Since then, Oliver’s life become better and better. The story is a realistic description of the grim and dark side of the life. It really has a complicated plot. It is a strong attack on social injustices and a desire for a new order of society, but Dickens seems to have faith in the charitable spirit of human beings and keeps an optimistic attitude toward society.。

Oliver TwistIn the before,I always complained about my life. Why I am short? Why my study was not very good? During the reading class, our teacher asked us read novels every month, I read Oliver Twist by accident. Since then I changed my mind.This book was written by Charles Dickens, the greatest representative of English critical realism.He was born in 1812 in Portsmouth. When he was four the family moved to Chatham,where he spent the happiest five years of in his childhood.But after the family moved to London, the situation changed. And his father was put in prison for heavily debt when young Charles was only 12 years old .He had to giving up schooling to work in a blacking factory.At that time his dream of becoming a learned gentleman was dashed to pieces.These 2 years were spent in poverty and humiliation. But, it was during this period that he came to know the life of the poor and the dark side of London.Fortunately, the family fortune changed. Charles could leave the factory to enter school again. In 1827,he left school to work at a lawyer”s office,and two years later, he became a parliamentary reporter.In 1836,Dickens first book Sketches by Boz published.The main character of this book was Oliver Twist. His mother was unknown to others and himself, so he became an orphan when he came to the world and was thrown into a world full of poverty and crime. It was the tragic of that time that all of the homeless children had to be sent the workhouse and they began their endless life. When another child said something bad about his mother, he became furious and taught him a lesson by his fists and arms. After he arrived in London, he received an education in villainy from the criminal gang of Fagin that includes the brutal thief Bill Sikes, the famous artful Dodger and Nancy. There he was forced to do bad things, which was a torture to his kind heart. Fortunately, he was rescued by a benefactor—Mr. Brownlow, who was kind enough to offer a good live to the child who had never been cared about by others. He lived a happy and comfortable life, but another thing ended his short, precious happiness. One day, Mr. Brownlow asked Oliver to return some books to the bookseller and to send some money for the new books that he had already collected. But the mysterious Monks got the gang to kidnap the boy again, after which he disappeared in Mr. Brownlow’s life. Searching for awhile, Mr. Brownlow had to believe the fact that he had run away with his money. But dramatically, they came across each other again a few years later. Without hesitation, Mr. Brownlow took Oliver home for the second time not caring if he had done something evil.For me, the nature of goodness is one of the most necessary character for a person. Goodness is to humans what water is to fish. He who is without goodness is an utterly worthless person. On the contrary, as the famous saying goes, ‘The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose', he who is with goodness undoubtedly is a happy and useful person. People receiving his help are grateful to him and he also gets gratified from what he has done, and thus he can do good to both the people he has helped and himself.To my disappointment, nowadays some people seem to doubt the existence of the goodness in humanity. They look down on people's honesty and kindness, thinking it foolish of people to be warm-hearted. As a result, they show no sympathy to those who are in trouble and seldom offer to help others. On the other hand, they attach importance to money and benefit. In their opinion, money is the only real object while emotions and morality are nihility. If they cannot get profit from showing their ‘kindness', they draw back when others are faced with trouble and even hit a man when he is down. They are one of the sorts that I really detest.Francis Bacon said in his essay, ‘Goodness, of all virtues and dignities of the mind, is the greatest, being the character of the Deity, and without it, man is a busy, mischievous, wretched thing, no better than a kind of vermin.'参考文献:刘意清、刘炅《简明英国文学史》简明英国文学史姓名:车菲菲班级:商务英语2班学号:2012505026 指导老师:方岩。
