요약 | Dickens's first concern in all his fiction is with people's feelings and their imaginations. How does a person learn to enter vividly into the life he or she has been given, and into the lives of others? How does someone change, how do they love, give their trust, look forward to the future? These questions make their way into all of Dickens's novels, including the four discussed in this contribution to the My Reading series: Oliver Twist (1837-39), David Copperfield (1849-50), Little Dorrit (1855-57), and A Tale of Two Cities (1859). Consistent with the aims of the series, Annette Federico takes a personal approach to Dickens's art. A chronology of her life as a reader of Dickens runs parallel to her life as a daughter, a spouse, a teacher, a scholar-though she does not let that last role loom too largely. In a letter from January 1859, Dickens outlined his desired legacy: "I hope I have done my part to make the rising generation 'more childish,' in rendering them a little more imaginative, a little more gentle, and a little less conceited and hard, than they would have been without me. I desire to do nothing better." To grow more childish is a reverse education, a pilgrimage away from mere intellectual knowingness toward another kind of knowledge. It is to see the world more believingly and imaginatively, with a little less guile, perhaps, and less reliance on other people's opinions. This book also attempts that backward journey. |
