Corruption And Hypocrisy In Charles Dickens’ Oliver Twist (1837) And Mark Twain’s The Adventures Of Huckleberry Finn (1884).
Résumé: Based on Dickens’ Oliver Twist and Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, this dissertation intends to study some central themes which the two novels share. This dissertation is concerned with the study of the portrayal of corrupt adult world in the above mentioned novels. We have examined from a New Historicist aspect, the broader evaluation that the two authors made of the mid nineteenth century England and America. This research paper has been divided into three chapters. The first one encompasses the time and life of the two authors. The second chapter entitled Corruption and Hypocrisy in Oliver Twist deals with Dickens depiction of the Victorian corrupt society. The last chapter puts emphasis on Twains’ realistic portrayal of the hypocrisy of the post Civil War American society. Throughout our work, we have shown that, the two authors, despite their different environments, share similar features, mainly in their ethical and political potential of literature, and their social novels in particular, since they both treated their fictions as a springboard for debates about moral and social reforms.
