Thisnovel describes around the hero Pip and his great expectations of disillusion process throughthe facts he finally realized his target for the flashy life in a luxury and dissipation in politesociety was of no value. 3Chapter I Dickens Cultural Position and the Content of the quotGreat Expectation quot1.1 The Important Status of Dickens Dickens is the most significant novelist of the English. In English history of culturethere is one peak that cannot be surpassed by any other figures. Dickens is the onlycomparable outstanding figure with William Shakespeare. Dickens is the greatest novelist in 19th century critical realism outstanding delegates. Hisnovels is not only a true reflection of the whole generation of life experience but vividlyreveals the mid 19th century Britains entire social reality the depth and breadth is far beyondthe contemporary most other works .Dickens’s later work Great
Expectations 1861 which isconsidered as his artistic masterpiece is the most perfectly constructed of all Dickens’s novels.“Surely the characters in Great Expectations are the greatest collection in all of Englishfiction.”Dickens 2791.2 The Main Content of the
quotGreat Expectation” Dickens is one of the worlds best-loved writers and Great
Expectations may beDickens most autobiographical work. Although an earlier novel David copperfield followedthe facts of Dickens life more closely the narrator David seems a little too good to be true.The narrator of Great Expectations Pip is in contrast a man of many faults who hides noneof them from the reader. If Pip is a self-portrait Dickens must have been a reservoir ofinferiority complexes guilt and shame. 4 The beginning of the novel is set shortly after Dickens birthdates 1812 in the countryof his childhood--the Kentish countryside by the sea the nearest large town is Rochesterwhere Miss Havisham lives. Dickens wasnt an orphan as Pip is but he may well have feltlike one. His parents were sociable pleasant people but when Charles who was the eldestboy was nine the Dickens’s pulled up roots and moved to London to try to live more cheaply.Charles was appalled by the cramped grubby house they lived in there and even moreashamed when his father was arrested and taken to debtors prison. “The rest of the Dickens’swere allowed to move into prison with their father but twelve-year-old Charles
had to livealone.” Ashley 9 In spite of his depression Dickens managed to include in
Great Expectations theuntranscended comedy he was known and loved for. His driving need to please his public kepthim on balance. The novels themes however are very serious. He writes about human natureitself a mixture of misery joy hope and despair. Dickens wrote it because his vision of lifewas growing complex and he was too great a genius to simplify it. Luckily he was also agreat enough genius to write a book that people could enjoy. Though Dickens bared hispsychological problems in this novel he was still trying to reach out to his readers to makethem see their own lives more clearly.
because he isso human so honest and so much Perhaps this is why people love Dickens--
likes all of us. In this novel Dickens set the beginning in a village cemetery a small boy Pip isaccosted by a runaway convict Magwitch who demands food and a file to saw off his leg iron.Pip helped him. Not long after this Pip is invited to the gloomy home of rich eccentric MissHavisham who wants a boy to quotplayquot for her amusement. But Pips real role at Miss 5Havishams turns out to be as a toy for Miss Havishams adopted daughter Estella who hasbeen raised with one purpose--to break mens hearts Pip falls in love with Estella andbecomes self-conscious about his low social class and unpolished manners. From then on hisabiding dream is to be a gentleman. Then a London lawyer Jiggers comes to the village to tell Pip that he has come into afortune from an anonymous source. Finally he came to know that it was Magwitch whohelped him. Blamers 23 Back in London Pip learns that Magwitch once had a baby girl butshe was abandoned by her mother. Piecing together evidence Pip realizes with shock thatEstella was that baby girl. Later he accepted a job in an overseas branch of Herberts office.Returning to England many years later Pip visits Miss Havishams house which has beenpulled down. Estella is there too. As they walk away hand in hand it looks as though theywould finally get together. 6 Chapter II Several Main Characters’ Personality Development Process2.1 The
Original Characteristics of the Main Figures quotGreat Expectation” contains a lot of characters such as Pip his sister Mrs. Joe Gargerythe town blacksmith Joe Mr. Wopsle Mr. and Mrs. Hubble Miss Havisham eccentric oldlady who lives up town Estella Miss Havishams snooty beautiful daughter Biddy Orrick Vompeyson Abel Magwitch
Miss Skiffins and so on . In my paper I focus on threemain figures .They are Pip Joe Gargery and Miss Havisham.2.1.1 The Original Characteristic of Pip The novel begins at the church graveyard on Christmas Eve. Pip informs us that he is anorphan and lives in the marsh country. Julie 29 An escaped convict appears and threatensPip. He commands Pip to bring him a file and vittles food or hell cut Pips throat. AlthoughPip is scared to death and knows clearly that the man is a escaped dangerous prisoner hegoes back home to steal food and even a bottle of brandy for him and gives him a smooth fileto help him to cast off the iron chain. On Pips way to the church graveyard he imagines thatall the animals are sneering and blaming him. The leopard cat hung in the food cupboard iscalling Joe wake up to seize the thief and the cattle are talking about his misconduct andscoring him which are the typical illusion of a naive little kid. So at the first place Pip isdescribed as a kind hearted boy and full of sympathy. Douglas 192.1.2 The Original Characteristic of Joe Gargery 7 Joe is Pip’s brother-in-law but there is a big gap in their
ages. He actually plays the roleof Pip’s father. But this father is somewhat different
because he in fact has authority in thefamily run by Mrs. Joe. Compared with Pip Joe is only a fellow-sufferer of Mrs. Joe’s cruelty.Joe’s situation and influence is too feeble. He is an honest industrious mild good-natured and easy-going dear fellow. Pip alwaystreats him as a large species of child and as no more than his standard. He protects and lovesPip. Joe is not well educated and even has difficulty in spelling his own name but Joeencourages Pip to learn. Joe is also very forgiving. When talking about the causes of histolerance of Mrs. Joe Joe says: quotIm dead afraid of going wrong in the way of not doingwhats right by a woman and Id fur rather of the two go wrong the other way and be a littleill-conveniences myself. I wish it was only me that got put out Pip I wish there won’t notickler for you old chap I wish I could take it all on myself.quot(Dickens 101)
From this part of novel we can clearly see that Joe is the most kind-hearted person who iswilling to do every thing to help pip and to satisfy his wife. The image of Joe maybe the mostdirect influence positive factor that make Pip grow up as such an honest and simple boy thatat the very ending readers can have quite a beautiful picture.2.1.3 The original characteristic of Miss Havisham In Great Expectation the distinctive character Miss Havisham attracts critics’ andresearchers’ attention the articles at home referred to the analyses on the character and imageof Great Expectation are numerous. In a typical study of this type Li Guangming 2007suggested that Miss Havisham is a victim of complex forces which from her family and the 8bourgeois society. Miss Havisham is an eccentric and most impressive woman that Dickens had evercr.

《远大前程》中皮普的人物性格分析
摘要:文深入致的分了狄更斯《远大前程》一中的主要人皮普的生活经历与心历程,揭示了英国维多利亚时人与人之间赤裸裸的金钱关系,
关键
《远大前程》是查尔斯·狄更斯艺术生后期最具表性的长篇小说。小说描述了一个名为皮普的孤的活经历和心路发历程,艺术的揭示了这位孤从对幸生活的期望到幻想破灭的整过程。在这本书中“,远大前程”一句反话,并不是真的孤儿有什么远大的前,而恰恰是指的一种“幻灭”,一种幻想幻灭。但如果读者只是把本理解成一本描写孤儿幻想破灭书,就误解也低估了者的本意,作者是要在对孤儿皮普描述中19世纪英国维利亚时代的会生活,揭露了产阶级钱世界的种。主人公皮普自幼就失去了父母,作者在小说的开始以一称的口吻这样叙述主人公的世“:我说皮利普是我父亲的姓,那有根据的,因为我父亲的碑上刻着他姓,而且我姐姐也这么说。我姐姐嫁给了铁匠乔·葛奇里,在是葛奇里夫人了。至于我,从来没有见到过父亲和母亲,也没有看到过他两位照片。”从这里我们可以了,样个幼由嫁给铁匠的姐姐抚养长大的孤儿,在那个时代是不可能获得什么太的教育的。育缺失和家境的情况使得幼的皮普把姐夫当做理想的奋斗标。而事实上,在这个由姐掌握大的家里,姐夫也是唯一可以“以诚相待,心腹”的人。“一手”抚养他长大的姐姐呢“,我的姐姐乔·葛奇里夫人我年长二十多。一直说我是由她手带大的,因此在左邻右舍享有很大气,倍受夸奖。从小我就想解这里的“一手”究竟是什么义。我所知道的她的手,结实笨重而冷酷严厉的,因为她别喜欢把她的巴掌打在她丈夫的身上,当然也喜欢打在我的身上。我想乔·葛奇里和我就是这样由她一手带大的吧。”读者可以在字里行间读出作者的良用心,但即使在这样充满了力的家庭里长大,皮普依然保持着天真、质朴的性格,文中作还特意用一段对吃面包的描述来展示皮普的天真爱“:在吃晚餐时,我们有个惯,要比较一下吃面包的速度,不地悄拿起所啃的面包比一下,并且相互会心地表示美。这样,我们啃面包就越有劲。”幼年的皮普也是善良的,这一点即是在面对逃犯时也曾变,正是这种善良为他日后命运埋下了伏笔。哈维莎姆
变了皮普一生的命运。在这里我们要意一点,就是作者查尔斯·狄更斯的哲学思想之一是环对人想的影响。狄更认为,不同的环境可以造成不同人。当然,我们知道,内因是决定一个人发展的关键因素。普如果不是一个天真、朴的,而是一个成、倔强的少年,也许这个故事就不会是这一个结局了。对一个一心要“报复男人”的哈维莎姆小来说,皮普是一个绝佳工具和发泄对象。让年轻漂亮的女埃斯去主动接近皮普,却又不断的笑皮普,哈维姆的计划成功的。皮普就像一个提线木偶,被哈维姆小姐和命运玩弄股之间。对爱斯特拉倾慕使皮开始厌恶自己“那双粗糙的手和那双头笨脑皮靴”,用皮自己的话说就是“我现在对这些东西很是瞧不起了,这些东西过去没有恼过我,现在却使我烦恼了。它们确是些粗俗不堪的东西。”也开始埋怨一直“以诚相待,推心置腹”的“”“我回家去问问乔,为什么他总是告诉我那些牌叫做贾克,而实际上应该是奈夫。我想,如当年乔的教养高一些,我不至于落到这地步。”应该,作为一个孩子,在虚荣面有些抱还是可以理解的,毕竟这也符合人性。此同,从这里开我们以看到,狄更斯在《远大前程》中对人物心理的写之以往更加、真实,对人物内世界的探索更加坚决、彻底。与其期的人物形象相比,皮普的象更加丰富逼真,这是作者摆人物单一性和确定性一种表现。使得皮普这个人物更近现实,更能反映当时的社会情形。在皮普的身上,我们看不到狄更斯早期作品中那种脸谱化的描写,看不到作者直接定义的人物性格,而是一个有自身言行举止,内心活动崭新的形象。对皮普的是非要由读者自己来判断、价。皮普真实的,也就是从这一刻开始,那种对虚荣的慕情结开始萌动,那种摆脱状的想法开始不可遏制的出现,并快开始实施“一两天后的一个早晨,我醒来时突然到一个非常好的主意。我自己走向不平凡,最为上策的办法是去找蒂,学会她所知道一东西自己所用。”从这一开始,皮普开始了他的奋斗历
