  • David Copperfield by Charles Dickens
    Ch apter 1 In reading my story, you’ll decide whether I’m the hero of my own life or someone else is. I was born at Blunderstone in Suffolk. My father, David, had died six months before, at the age of thirty-nine. His aunt, Betsey Trotwood, was the head of the family. Aunt Betsey had been married to a younger man who had been very handsome and was said to have abused her. They had separated. Aunt Betsey had taken back her birth name, bought a seaside house in Dover, established herself there as a single woman with one servant, and lived in near-seclusion. It was believed that her husband had gone to India and died there ten years later. My father had been a favorite of Aunt Betsey until his marriage, which had deeply offended her. She never had met my mother, Clara. However, because my mother had been only nineteen when she married my father, then thirty- eight, Aunt Betsey had taken offense and referred to my mother as a “wax doll.” My father and Aunt Betsey had never seen each other again. The day before I was born was a bright, windy March day. My mother was in poor health and in low spirits. Dressed in mourning because of my father’s 1 2 CHARLES DICKENS recent death, she sat in the parlor by the fi re shortly before sunset. When she lifted her sad eyes to the window opposite her, she saw an unfamiliar lady coming up the walk. The lady was Aunt Betsey.

  • David Copperfield As an Autobiographical Novel Ans:- It Is Proverbially Said--"It's in Vain
    David Copperfield as an autobiographical novel Ans:- It is proverbially said--"It's in vain... to recall the past, unless it works some influence upon the present." Norrie Epstein, in The Friendly Dickens, notes that by writing about his parents and reliving his childhood, Dickens triumphed over his past and would never again need to make a neglected child the central focus of a novel. David Copperfield's life was a veiled image of the author's life, though the novel still maintains the potent themes that made Dickens legendary. Dickens portrayed his parents and his attitude towards them in many of the characters in David Copperfield. Dickens's parents were high-spirited, airy people who were not, in Dickens's eyes, good parents. In David Copperfield, Dickens's mother, Elizabeth Dickens, was portrayed as the lovely widow, Clara Copperfield. Clara was the naive and girlish mother of David. Behind David's back, she married Edward Murdstone, a cruel, heartless man. David felt betrayed by his mother, just as Dickens felt betrayed by his own mother. After Dickens's father was arrested because of his debts, his mother sent Charles to work at the terrible Warren's Blacking Factory, a shoe-making factory. This experience scarred and alienated Dickens for life and was a theme in many of his books. Dora Spenlow, David's first wife, was also another image of Elizabeth Dickens, Charles' mother. Like Mrs. Copperfield, Dora had a blithe personality and was beautiful, angelic but naive. She enchanted David and he instantaneously loved her. "I was a captive and a slave.

Like many fond parents, I have in my heart of hearts a favourite child. And his name is David Copperfield.’ Dickens himself had a difficult, unhappy childhood, and young David’s life is not at all easy. His father died before he was born, and when he is eight, his mother marries again. Her new husband, Mr. Murdstone, is stern and cruel, and so is his disagreeable sister, the stony-faced, Miss Murdstone. As he grows up, David meets many unpleasant people - cruel schoolmasters, wicked friends, and the evil Uriah Heep, with his oily smile.
