  • Literature CAT Two, 1999, Creative Response, David Copperf…
    Literature CAT Two 97 152 172 L David Copperfield- Charles Dickens Creative Response. Statement of Intention: This creative piece is supposed to be additional chapter to Charles Dickens original manuscript of David Copperfield, I have aimed to write in a manner so it fits in seamlessly with the novel. This piece is an addition to be inserted after chapter 40, The Wanderer. I choose to write this piece as in reading the novel I became fascinated with both the bitter Rosa Dartle and eccentric Aunt Betsy Trotwood. In the novel David Copperfield, they never actually met so I have created a scene that will add to the tension and drama, when these two strong headed characters meet. Dickens frequently uses dialogue and the speech patterns of each character are very distinct and help him create give them personality and depth; for example Mr. Peggotty of the lower class uses words like, “bachelore1” instead of bachelor, “wureld2” instead of world, “nowt3” instead of nothing and “p’raps4” instead of perhaps, while Mr. Macawber another character whom Dickens want to show has pretensions, uses flamboyant language “remunerative5” instead of compensate and “infantine6” instead of endless. Therefore like Dickens, I have also used dialogue to capture both Rosa Dartle’s distinct speech patterns, either evasive or plain accusing and Aunt Betsy’s more abrupt and direct manner. David’s observant, innocent almost naïve and defenseless manner have also been maintain so that this piece is believable. I have recreated David’s manner of using long sentences with many commas in his observations. I have maintained David’s narration of the story, as the rest of the novel is written from David’s point of view.

  • David Copperfield Author: Charles Dickens
    Name: Mrs Chisty 6C Title– David Copperfield Author: Charles Dickens Background- The story follows the life of David Copperfield from childhood to maturity. David was born in Blunderstone, Suffolk, England, six months after the death of his father. David spends his early years in relative happiness with his loving, childish naive mother and their kind housekeeper, Mrs. Peggotty. The Setting- David Copperfield is begins in Blunderstone Rookery, a house in rural Suffolk. This home is an ideal setting in the years before his mother’s second marriage... After she marries Murdstone, it becomes a prison with Murdstone and his equally “firm" sister as they become Da- vid's keepers. The Plot- During David’s early childhood, his mother marries the violent Mr. Murdstone, who brings his strict sister, Miss Murdstone, into the house. The Murdstones treat David cruelly, and David bites Mr. Murdstone’s hand during one beating. The Murdstones send David away to school. Peggotty takes David to visit her family in Yarmouth, where David meets Pe- ggotty’s brother, Mr. Peggotty, and his two adopted children, Ham and Little Em’ly. Mr. Peggotty’s family lives in a boat turned upside down—a space they share with Mrs. Gummidge, the widowed wife of Mr. Peggotty’s brother. After this visit, David attends school at Salem House, which is run by a man named Mr. Creakle. David befriends and idolises an egotistical young man named James Steerforth. David also befriends Tommy Traddles, an unfortunate, corpulent young boy who is beat- en more than the others... Comments– An insight in to Victorian London through Dickens' pen has made a permanent mark on literature as one of the greatest books ever written.

    Teaching Dickens A Masterpiece Guide Contents 2 Introduction 3 General Questions & Activities 7 Oliver Twist 10 David Copperfield 14 Little Dorrit 17 The Old Curiosity Shop 21 Stay Tuned: The Rise of the Killer Serial 26 Resources 29 Credits page 1 Introduction CHARLES DICKENS was the best-known novelist of his time, and is considered by many to be the greatest writer of the Victorian era. A social reformer, Dickens wrote sprawling serial novels that chronicled and condemned the injustices of Victorian society. Yet he was also a deft entertainer and satirist, creating vivid characters, such as Scrooge, Miss Havisham, and Uriah Heep, who are still a part of our culture today. As David Lodge, who adapted the 1995 MASTERPIECE THEATRE production of Martin Chuzzlewit, says in Norrie Epstein’s The Friendly Dickens (Penguin, 2001), “Dickens’ observation of folly, affectation, hypocrisy, self-deception, deception of others, and the way in which people manipulate language to these ends just tickles one. Dickens does what comedy has always done: it both exposes imperfections in the world and reconciles us to it by making something entertaining out of it.” Does Dickens still have something to say to us today? Use the activities and questions in this guide as you watch and read The Tales of Charles Dickens— the all-new 2009 MASTERPIECE adaptations of Oliver Twist, Little Dorrit, and The Old Curiosity Shop, as well as an encore presentation of David Copperfield, which originally aired in 2000. Whether through characters who have counterparts in current pop culture, plot twists that eerily echo stories in our own newspapers, or the universal questions Dickens raises about the mysteries of the human heart, this guide is designed to help readers see Dickens’ relevance to our world today.

  • David Copperfield
    David Copperfield Charles Dickens and ‘David Copperfield’ Charles Dickens was born in 1812 in Portsmouth. Later, his parents moved to London and to Chatham in Kent. When he was a boy his life was difficult but as an adult Dickens had an international reputation as a great writer. Dickens called David Copperfield 'my favourite child'. He considered it his favourite novel. It is easy to understand this. David's story is similar to Charles Dickens's life. Like David, Dickens worked as a young boy in a factory, then earned money by reporting the debates in parliament. He later became a popular author. Like David's friend, Mr Micawber, Dickens's father went to prison because he owed money. David's initials, D.C., are the reverse of C.D., Charles Dickens. David is a mirror reflection of the author. David Copperfield is typical of all his work. Dickens understood children and created many famous child characters. Young David Copperfield is one of these. Dickens knew and loved London and small towns like Canterbury and Yarmouth, the three places where the main action takes place. He criticises the unjust things in society, such as cruel boarding schools and child labour. There are comic characters in David Copperfield like Mr Micawber who always owes money. Above all, Dickens hated hypocrites, people who pretended to be good but were not. One of the novel's characters, Uriah Heep, is possibly the greatest hypocrite in all Dickens's work. Dickens lived at the time of Queen Victoria, when Britain was a very rich, powerful nation.

Professors Carolyn Dever, Jay Clayton, Mark Schoenfield, and Jim Epstein have each taught me much and fostered my growth throughout my graduate career; I have been continually touched by the virtuosity of their insights as scholars and their generous enthusiasm as teachers and mentors. In particular, I owe an, to my mind, incalculable debt of gratitude to my Co-Directors, Jay Clayton and Carolyn Dever. Their careful, caring readings of my work as well as their supportive feedback have not only buttressed me in my efforts along the way but have pushed me to be a better writer, scholar, and by example, teacher. My meetings with them throughout my five years at Vanderbilt have been the highlight of my graduate career. The Vanderbilt University Center for Ethics also contributed to the composition of this dissertation. I would like to thank them for the Dissertation Fellowship but also for the opportunity to work with the talented, interdisciplinary group of graduate students they assembled in the Fall of 2008.

David Copperfield1s autobiography attempts to order the events of his past into a coherent story so that he can create his own identity. The process is a difficult one for David, however, for he is caught in a cycle of repression and repetition resulting from a conflict between the compelling force of imagination and the desire for temperance; though David experiences instinctual sexual and aggressive fantasies, he continually represses them, for he feels he must assert society's values.
