"David Copperfield" and "Great Expectations" are among Charles Dickens's most famous novels. In both books, the hero tells the vivid and absorbing tale of his education by life, presents a rich range of characters and scenes, and tackles profound moral, social and psychological themes.
Part I of this essential study:
- provides lucid and penetrating analyses of key passages
- discusses the crucial topics of patriarchy, class, obsession, eccentricity, death, breakdown and recovery
- summarizes the methods of analysis and offers suggestions for further work.
Part II supplies key background material, including:
