PavidCopperfieldand 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 fp
range of characters and scenes, and tackles profound moral, social and psychological themes, ft!
Part f of this essential study:
m provides lucid and penetrating analyses of key passages
* discusses the crucial topics of patriarchy, class, obsession, eccentricity, death,
breakdown and recovery
m summarizes the methods of analysis and offers suggestions for further work.
Part 11 supplies key background material, including: ft!
* an account of Dickens s life and works ft
m a survey of historical, cultural and literary contexts
m samples of significant criticism.
Also featuring a valuable Further Reading section, this volume provides readers with the critical
and analytical skills which will enable them to enjoy and explore both novels for themselves.
Nicolas Tredell is a freelance writer and formerly taught Literature, Film, Drama and
Cultural Studies at the University of Sussex.
Analysing Texts is dedicated to one clear belief: that we can all enjoy, understand and
analyse literature for ourselves, provided we know how to do it. Readers are guided in
the skills and techniques of close textual analysis used to build an insight into a richer
understanding of an author s individual style, themes and concerns. An additional section
on the writer s life and work and a comparison of major critical views place them in their
personal and literary context.
