  11. Many things have changed in the world since the time of Charles Dickens. Some things have not.

  12. Industrialization and urbanization choked London with pollution.

  13. An immense gap separated a small, wealthy class of citizens from the impoverished masses. Social status typically dictated… Living conditions, employment, education, & legal protection

  14. Crime and debt pressed England’s prisons beyond capacity. With no room left to house inmates they began deporting law breakers to the recently-established colony in Australia. Dickens’ own father was sent to Marshalsea Debtors prison.

  15. Like today, relationships between parents and children were often strained or nonexistent. Young people of the lower classes were eager for something more. What are we willing to sacrifice in order to succeed? Family Values Love

  16. Although Great Expectations is a jewel of Victorian literature, it’s messages are not confined to any particular age. Because readers bring their own experiences, opinions, and values to the table - what this book means will depend on... you!

  18. Reading Pace: Giving Time to Pause Great Expectations is composed of nearly sixty chapters. The book was first published as a series of two chapter installments in in a periodical named All Year Round. Because the book was written for ‘serial’ publication, these chapters often leave the readers anxious to find out what will happen in the next installment. Strategy: When you reach the end of chapters pause to consider what has happened and where you believe the story is headed. Click to advance slide

  19. Characters and Characterization Traits and description inform the reader about who the characters are, their backgrounds, and the acts of which they might be capable. Charles Dickens invested a lot of thought and print to fuel his readers impressions. (Click the mouse to move on) A fearful man, all in coarse grey, with a great iron on his leg. A man with no hat, and with broken shoes, and with an old rag tied round his head. A man who had been soaked in water, and smothered in mud, and lamed by stones, and cut by flints, and stung by nettles, and torn by briars; who limped, and shivered, and glared and growled; and whose teeth chattered in his head as he seized me by the chin. (Click to advance slide) "Hold your noise!" cried a terrible voice, as a man started up from among the graves at the side of the church porch. "Keep still, you little devil, or I'll cut your throat!“ (Click again) This dialogue alone is enough to get our attention. The terror amplifies when we read on and learn of this man’s appearance.
