CHARLES DICKENS Charles Dickens began to write at a time when the labour movement, known as the Chartist movement, was at its height. Continuous demonstrations in defense of workers' rights took place in many manufacturing towns and in London as well. The actions of the Chartists had considerable effect on Dickens. Though he did not believe in revolutionary action, he was on the side of the people with all his heart. He wanted what the people wanted. Dickens wrote about the poorest, the most unprivileged sections of the population. He looked into the darkest corners of the large cities and there found the victims of capitalism. Thus Dickens's immortal works became an accusation of the bourgeois system as a whole. LIFE OF CHARLES DICKENS Charles Dickens was born in 1812 near Portsmouth on the southern coast of England. His father was a clerk at the office of a large naval station there, and the family lived on his small salary. They belonged to the lower middle class. The father was transferred from place to place and there was always talk between the parents about money. Charles was very young when the family moved to the naval port of Chatham. There Charles and his eldest sister first went to school. Charles had a nurse called Marry Weller, who used to say about him that 'he was a terrible boy to read' and that he and his sister were fond of singing, reciting poems and acting. The happy days at Chatham came to an end in 1822 when the father was moved to London. The Dickenses rented a house in one of the poorest parts of London. Charles loved to walk about the busy streets and watch the lively street scenes. Charles was the eldest son, but he was not sent to school again. The father made no plans for the education of his children. He was an easy-going man who always spent more time than he could afford. Soon he lost his job. All the property the family has was sold, even Charles's favourite books, and the boy was put to work in a blacking factory. He worked hard washing bottles for shoe-polish. While his father, mother, sisters and brothers all lived in the Marshalsea debtors' prison. The long working hours at the factory, the poor food, the rough boys. He could never forget. He later described this unhappy time in David Copperfield. Dickens visited his parents in the prison on Sundays. There he saw many others prisoners, and learned their stories. The debtors' prison is described in the Pickwick Papers and in the novel Little Dorrit. In about a year the Dickenses received a small sum of money after the death of a relative, so all the debts were paid. Charles got a chance to go to school again. This time he was sent to a very old-fashioned school called Wellington House Academy. 1.2. Учні презентують підготовлені відомі вирази Чарльза Діккенса та коментують їх. A man who could build a church, as one may say, by squinting at a sheet of paper. Accidents will occur in the best regulated families. I do not know the American gentleman, god forgive me for putting two such words together. No one is useless in this world, who lightens the burdens of another. Reflect on your present blessings, of which every man has many; not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some. Subdue your appetites, my dears, and you've conquered human nature. Train up a fig tree in the way it should go, and when you are old sit under the shade of it. We need never be ashamed of our tears. It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest than I go to, than I have ever known. 2.

DICKENS' LONDON Charles Dickens was one of Britain's most famous writers. He wrote stories about life in London, where he lived. London was a very unpleasant place 150 years ago. Poor children used to start work when they were six. If their parents died, they used to go into workhouses, where they worked ten or twelve hours a day for little food. Many children died. Dickens had a hard life. His parents lost their money, so he started work at the age of twelve. He used to walk ten kilometers a day to work in a factory. He earned 30p a week. Later, he became a journalist and reported events in Parliament. He used to write his Parliamentary reports in the morning and his novels in the afternoon. (Writers at those days didn't use to earn a lot of money). Dickens wrote a lot of famous novels - for example David Copperfield, A Christmas Carol, and Great Expectations. One of his most famous books was Oliver Twist, a story about a boy's life in the workhouse and on the streets of London.
