Through close attention to the representation of the reader in 10
of Dickens novels, this study brings their specifically Victorian
assumptions into direct confrontation with the insights of modern
critical theory. In doing so, the study locates in Dickens a
tendency to reanimate the ancient principle of mimesis that not
only does the text become a mirror held up to its reader but, in a
radical revision of our post-Saussurean understanding, language
becomes not so much a decontructive system of differences as a
reconstructive system of resemblances. In short, Schad is finally
concerned with some new and quite mythical idea of language.
