Quelques mots sur l'auteur
Charles Dickens, born February 7, 1812, in Portsmouth, England, is often considered one of the greatest novelists in the English language. Dickens is renowned for his vivid characters, insightful social commentary, and deep empathy for the disadvantaged. His early experiences with poverty and the debtor's prison his family endured imbued his works with a profound humanitarian spirit. Dickens began his literary career as a journalist and shot to fame with the serial publication of 'The Pickwick Papers' in 1836. He went on to produce a remarkable series of novels, including 'Oliver Twist' (1837), 'David Copperfield' (1849–50), and 'Great Expectations' (1860–61). His novel 'Bleak House', published in serial form from 1852 to 1853, is commonly celebrated for its intricate narrative and incisive critique of the English judicial system. He masterfully employs a vast ensemble of characters and a dual narrative structure to explore the complexities of the social and legal landscape of his time. Dickens's writing is characterized by its rich humor, irony, and moral seriousness. His versatile storytelling continues to be widely read and has been adapted into numerous plays, films, and television shows. Dickens passed away on June 9, 1870, leaving behind a legacy that forever changed the landscape of Victorian literature.
