概要

Dive into Charles Dickenss Hard Times, his shortest and most poignant novel, set against the backdrop of the industrial north of England. This gripping tale features a vibrant cast of characters and serves as a powerful critique of utilitarian education, epitomized by Mr. Gradgrinds infamous call to Teach these boys and girls nothing but facts. The novel also explores the intense friction between capital and trade unions, suggesting that a humanist education system could bridge the chasm of class struggle. Set in the fictional Coketown, the narrative is inspired by Dickenss visit to Preston during the tumultuous factory lockout of 1853. This version, presented as it was serialized in 20 issues of Dickenss Household Words from April to August 1854, is complemented by two insightful articles—Locked Out and On Strike—which illuminate Dickenss reflections on education and class conflict. - Summary by Phil BensonCopyright 19th and 20th Century Fiction アート 文学史・文学批評 社会科学 科学
