Charles Dickens A Critical Study (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162657561)

""Charles Dickens: A Critical Study"" is a book written by George Gissing, which provides a comprehensive analysis of the life and works of the renowned English author, Charles Dickens. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores different aspects of Dickens' literary career, including his early life, his literary influences, his writing style, and his major works. Gissing also examines the social and political context in which Dickens wrote, and the impact of his works on Victorian society. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of English literature, as well as for anyone interested in the life and works of Charles Dickens.One thing to be learnt from every page of the biography is the strenuous spirit in which Dickens wrought. Whatever our judgment as to the result, his zeal and energy were those of the born artist. Passages numberless might be quoted from his letters, showing how he enjoyed the labour of production, how he threw himself into the imaginative world with which he was occupied, how impossible it was for him to put less than all his splendid force into the task of the moment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
