Charles

Dickens

Since the coronation of Queen Victoria in 1837, until his death in 1901, it was a time of social transformation that

forced writers to take positions on issues more immediate. Despite strong social criticism that arose

in many of his works, Queen Victoria was a fan of Dickens.

Charles Dickens was born at Landport, in Portsea, on February 7, 1812, . He was an English novelist, generally

considered the greatest of the victorian period.

Dickens enjoyed a wider popularity and fame than had any previous author during his

lifetime, and he remains popular, having been responsible for some of English literature's

most iconic novels and characters.

He went to Rome Lane School, and he studied  culture  at William  Gile school. Finally Charles  got a degree

in  Oxford

The season of the skinny cows

Charles lived in a very hard time. This period is characterized by the misery of society,

vandalism, crime, economic problems, people were starving

OPINION/SOME INFORMATION OPINION/SOME INFORMATION

ABOUT ONE OF THEM.ABOUT ONE OF THEM. I think Charles Dikend is one of the most

important writers of history and for that reason even today he is regarded as a great novelist.

The book that I like most is "A Christmas Carol" because Charles tells the story of a man very stingy and selfish. But the three ghosts of Christmas  make him a

visit and change his way of being. Finally the old stingy man becomes a very generous and

kind person.
