Charles Dickens

Much of his work first appeared in periodicals and magazines in serialised form, a favoured way of publishing fiction at the time. Other writers of the time would complete entire novels before serial publication commenced, but Dickens often wrote his in parts, in the order in which they were meant to appear. His writing style was florid and poetic, with a strong comic touch. He satired of British aristocratic snobbery Dickens is famed for many things--his depiction of the hardships of the working class, his intricate plots, his sense of humour. But he is perhaps most famed for the characters he created. His novels were heralded early in his career for their ability to capture the everyday man on paper and thus create a memorable character to whom readers could relate, and envision as a real person. BLEAK HOUSE (1853) belongs to Dickens's greatest works of social criticism. The novel is built

The use of symbolism is also prevalent throughout this speech. This can easily be seen in the following sentence: ‘’I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight’’. Martin Luther King uses the valleys, hills, mountains and rough places to symbolically represent racial inequalities and hardships across the land that must be corrected. The distance between the low and high points represents the equality gap that he wishes to reduce. He conveys this by stating they "shall be exalted", "made low" and "made straight”. By using these words to create imagery he adds further depth and meaning to this passage. Another literary device present in this speech would be parallelism as seen in the following sentence:

The Hundred Year's War fought between France and England had a devastating effect on the English economy. The high taxation necessary to finance the war and the Black Death led to extreme hardships for the peasant class that there was a revolt. Although the peasants' revolt was soon put down, it lead to improved conditions for the peasant class and was the first step towards the ending of the feudal system in England.

Meena doesn't feel that she belongs wholly to the English or the Indian identity. She has the need to exploit her situation, to challange and to test boundaries in order to find herself. It is by doping so that she comes across racism and narrow- mindedness and has to deal with that. She makes up a wonderful story about the hardships that her yet innocent parents went through during their first time in England. She tells her friends when they play in the park that she [...]" was a Punjabi princess and owned an elephant Kalled Jason King," and at school she uses her Indianness as an excuse: [...] ,,I hadn't completed my homework because of an obscure religious festival involving fire eating..."

in Europe, becoming a British citizen in 1915 after the outbreak of World War I. Many of his works have inspired other author's works and adaptations to the stage and screen. Jack London Jack London, whose life symbolized the power of will, was the most successful writer in America in the early 20th Century. His vigorous stories of men and animals against the environment, and survival against hardships were drawn mainly from his own experience. An illegitimate child, London passed his childhood in poverty in the Oakland slums. At the age of 17, he ventured to sea on a sealing ship. The turning point of his life was a thirty-day imprisonment that was so degrading it made him decide to turn to education and pursue a career in writing. His years in the Klondike searching for gold left their mark in his best short stories; among them, The Call of the Wild, and White Fang

have been instructed to avoid and to see them as less than equal. I remember the riots against Korean produce stores, when Africans accused them of dominating their neighbourhoods. It was a most shameful spectacle. It was a very embarrassing episode, to say the least. I remember discussing this with my wife and asking her whether these Blacks were not ashamed of their action, that a recent immigrant group had come into the country and did well, in spite of their own hardships. These people were persecuted in their own countries and had to escape to America with hardly anything in their pocket. When they arrived here, they took all kinds of menial jobs, saved their money. These people would not mind living with one another in a one-room apartment. In fact, some of them like the Indians, would live with 20 to 40 others in one house so that they save their money. From the small beginning, they now control the produce markets almost everywhere throughout the United

Now seriously, what have you ever known of self-denial and dependence? When have you been prevented by want of money from going wherever you chose, or procuring anything you had a fancy for?" "These are home questions--and perhaps I cannot say that I have experienced many hardships of that nature. But in matters of greater weight, I may suffer from want of money. Younger sons cannot marry where they like." "Unless where they like women of fortune, which I think they very often do." "Our habits of expense make us too dependent, and there are not many in my rank of life who can afford to marry without some attention to money."
