Dickens's characters
ČERNOŠKOVÁ, Barbora
This thesis deals with the characters in the chosen novels of Charles Dickens. Its aim is to show that there are some typical characters and certain archetypes that repeatedly appear in Dickens's books, such as poor children draped in a destiny they cannot resist. These characters are analyzed based on Dickens's life because it is a major source of his inspiration. The first part of the thesis deals with the period in which the novels take place, the language of the characters that is often used to enliven them, and with social questions, such as life in so-called slums or the different roles of men and women in society. The second part consists of the typology itself with the focus on children characters which played an important part in Dickens's work. It also examines female characters, loyal servants, poor good guys, or criminals.
