    11、I have thrown my whole heart and soul into Oliver. ”, “I wished to show, in little Oliver, the principle of good surviving through every adverse circumstance, and triumphing at last.”. Dickens once wrote.1 Oliver Twist was Dickens second novel, which marked the beginning of Dickens literary life. In

    12、 the novel, Dickens specifically described the terrible life of the people at the bottom of society. This novel was a vivid picture of social condition of England. And it also exposed the cruelty of parish workhouse through depicting the little Oliver Twists childhood in it. In the novel, Dickens po

    13、inted out the suffering of those poor people. He called readers attention to the social status of the orphan. Especially the exposure of the cruel treatment of those orphans in London in the novel is very impressive. Oliver Twist was a very serious literary work which was full of social problems. As

    14、 a social novel, the novel calls the publics attention to various contemporary evils, including the Poor Law that stated that poor people should work in workhouses, child labor and the recruitment of children as criminals. In Oliver Twist, Dickens mixes grim realism, and merciless satire as a way to

    15、 describe the effects of industrialism on 19th-century England and to criticize the harsh New Poor Laws. Dickens also makes a social commentary in the novel, attacking the hypocrisy and flaws of institutions, including the societys government, the laws and criminal system, and its methods of dealing

    16、 with poor people. At the same time, Dickens points out the suffering inflicted by these systems and their deep injustice.Even, in the modern society, such kind of unequal phenomenon can also be found. The social reality and the realistic pictures of the horrible life of the poor people inspire most

    17、 of the readers to deeply think about the social reform which can eliminate the inequality and discrimination.And especially its social significance was very important for the citizens who live in the modern society of 21st century. So, this paper, through the deep analysis of social reality in Vict

    18、orian Age and the modern society, mainly talks about the progressive social significance of Oliver Twist.I. A General Introduction to the Author Charles DickensA. LifeCharles John Huffam Dickens was born on February7th 1812 at 13 Mile End Terrace, Portsmouth, England. He was the second child and fir

    19、st son of John Dickens, who was an assistant clerk in the Navy Pay Office. But his fatherhad spenttoo much money in entertaining, and at the same time the household expenses were rising. So in 1824 he was imprisoned for debt when Dickens was very young. And his family joined him in the Marshal Sea P

    20、rison, except Dickens, who was put to work at a blacking warehouse when he was just twelve. He worked at the scanty wage of 6 shillings a week. He lived in a boarding house in Camden Town and walked to work everyday and visited his father on Sundays. Thus, he had a sense of having been abandoned by

    21、his family. And this was the unhappy time of all his life. After his father was released, he was further wounded by his mothers insistence that he continue to work at the factory. His unhappy experience at the Blacking Factory haunted him all his life and he spoke of it only to his wife and to his c

    22、losest friend.B. Writing CareerBetween 1824 and 1827, Dickens was a day pupil at a school in London. At fifteen, he found a job as an office boy at an attorneys, while he studied shorthand at night. And this qualified him to begin working as a Parliamentary reporter for a newspaper. This job was the

    23、 beginning of his career of becoming a writer. During that time, he published several sketches in magazines including the two-volume edition of Sketches by Boz which were very popular. But it was not until he wrote The Pickwick Papers in 1836-1837 that he achieved the true success. The Pickwick Pape

    24、rs was published in monthly installments and sold over forty thousand copies for each issue.From 1838 to1841 appeared Oliver Twist, Nicholas Nickleby, The Old Curiosity Shop and Barnaby Rudge. These were Dickens early work. In 1842 Dickens made a trip to America and his unfavorable impressions of th

    25、e life in the U.S.A. were reflected in American Notes and Martin Chuzzleuit. In 1843, Dickens published one of his most famous works, A Christmas Carol. Since 1844 he had spent much time in the European Continent, especially in France and Italy. The great social movements in the middle of the 19th c

    26、entury inspired Dickens famous novels of social criticism, David Copperfield, Bleak House, Hard Times and Little Dorrit. At the same time, he was editing Household Words (1852-1859), the Entire Year Round(1859-1870), two weekly magazines. Dickens was widely read in Europe and in 1858 he set off on a

    27、 tour of public readings. In 1859, he published his historical novel of the French Revolution, A Tale of Two Cities which were followed by some novels on contemporary themes, Great Expectations and Our Mutual Friend. During his lifetime Dickens was known all over the world for his remarkable charact

    28、ers, his mastery of prose in the telling of the common peoples lives, and his depictions of the social classes, and his exposure of dark sides of the society. And he was also a spokesman for the poor.Dickens health started deteriorating in the 1860s. On June 9, 1870, Charles Dickens died and was bur

    29、ied in the Poets Corner of Westminster Abbey. He had written fifteen substantial novels and countless short pieces, except The Mystery of Edwin Drood which was unfinished at the time of his death. And his tomb inscribed thus: “He was a sympathizer to the poor, the suffering, and the oppressed; and b

    30、y his death, one of Englands greatest writers is lost to the world.”C. Writing StyleDickens is a great humanitarian. He shows the sympathy for different class of citizens who suffer the misery of social inequality. And he demonstrates the peoples kind and beautiful soul in the novel. Meantime, Dicke

    31、ns ruthlessly exposes the dark reality and depicts social evils as well as the abuse and corruption of the English parliamentary system. Besides the exposure and condemnations, Dickens also shows the concern for the plight of the common, the poor and the oppressed people, and feels the hatred for th

    32、e exploitation of the upper class. However, in the conflicted world of the good and the evil, he always adds the hope of future to the world so that the reader could have the impression of the moral purity:He sees life from the point of view of the poor of a great city. He shows great concern about

    33、social problems, supports all proposals for social reform, advocates an increase of democracy in all spheres of life, and champions the cause of the oppressed. Dickens maintains an unbroken faith in people with an entire pessimism as to capitalist society. His love for the working people is deep and

    34、 sincere.2In the aspect of art, Dickens is an expert in the satire and the humor. He is good at portraying the main feature by the way of irony, humor, and exaggeration so that most of the characters in his novels can leave unforgettable impression on the readers mind.Also, he is a remarkable master

    35、 of language. Dickens has a large amount of vocabulary and the astonishing skills of controlling language. All the characters he depicts usually have certain peculiarities in appearance, or in the style of speaking. And it is these peculiarities that make them vivid and alive. II. A Brief Introducti
