Dickens and London, Part 2
Manage episode 498184753 series 2809802
Welcome to celebrate creativity episode 422 - Dickens and london, part two
Sure, Charles Dickens was a master at portraying the poor population of London, often with a mix of stark realism, deep pathos, and sometimes even a touch of grotesque caricature to highlight their plight. He didn't just describe their outward appearance; he delved into their living conditions, their desperation, and their often-fragile hopes.
Ah, here is the ghost of Mr. Dickens himself. Would you be so good as to read from some of your text examples that illustrate how you described the poor:
Certainly Mr. Bartley.
I must admit that I frequently linked the poverty of the people to the wretchedness of their surroundings, emphasizing the inescapable nature of their condition.
