Hard Times is set in the imaginary industrial town of Coketown, the soulless domain of the strict Gradgind and the heartless factory owner Bounderby. The eminently practical Mr. Gradgrind, teaches nothing but facts, eradicating any imaginative or aesthetic subjects from the curriculum, while analysis, deduction and mathematics are emphasised. Mr. Bounderby himself superintends through calculating tabular statements and statistics, and is always secretly rebuking the people of Coketown for indulging in conceitful activities. Human joy is seen as the open-hearted and affectionate people act as an antidote to the ruthless behaviour Dickens presents. Hard Times appraises English society and highlights the social and economic pressures of the times. Dickens wished to confront the assumption that prosperity runs parallel to morality, a notion which is systematically deconstructed in this novel through his portrayal of the moral monsters, Mr. Bounderby and James Harthouse. Dickens was also campaigning for the importance of imagination in life, and for people's lives to not be reduced to a collection of material facts and statistical analyses. This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket.
A Child's History of England is a book by Charles Dickens. It first appeared in serial form in Household Words, running from 25 January 1851 to 10 December 1853. Dickens also published the work in book form in three volumes: the first volume on 20 December 1851, the second on 25 December 1852 and the third on 24 December 1853. 1] Although the volumes were published in December, each was postdated the following year. They bore the titles: Volume I. - England from the Ancient Times, to the Death of King John (1852) Volume II. - England from the Reign of Henry the Third, to the Reign of Richard the Third (1853) Volume III. - England from the Reign of Henry the Seventh to the Revolution of 1688 (1854) Dickens dedicated the book to "My own dear children, whom I hope it may help, bye and bye, to read with interest larger and better books on the same subject". The history covered the period between 50 BC and 1689, ending with a chapter summarising events from then until the accession of Queen Victoria. In a letter to his friend Douglas William Jerrold, Dickens confessed that he was composing the book so that he could prevent his children from embracing conservatism

在废弃房间的烟囱中,燕子已经筑巢多年了,从最早的春天到最近的秋天,整个麻雀的殖民地都在屋檐上rp叫。关于沉闷的马stable和附属建筑物的鸽子比任何人都多,但房东却能算得上是。矮小,长尾辫,玻璃杯和rs子的轮转和盘旋飞行可能与建筑物的庄重和清醒的特性不太吻合,但是单调的咕,声从未停止过,整整一天都被其中一些人抬起,非常适合完全一样,似乎使它静止不动。古老的房屋充满了悬挑的故事,昏昏欲睡的小玻璃窗,前凸出并突出在小路上,看上去好像正在睡觉。确实,它不需要花太多的力气就可以发现与人类的其他相似之处。最初建造时所用的砖是深暗红色,但后来变成黄色,像老人的皮肤一样变色。坚固的木材像牙齿一样腐烂。常春藤在这里和那里,就像一件温暖的衣服,在它的年代里安慰它一样,将绿色的叶子包裹在破旧的墙壁上。
如果我们的任何读者有幸看到打火机的葬礼,得知打火机是一个陌生而原始的人,他们将不会感到惊讶。自从第一盏公共灯被熄灭以来,他们严格遵守从父到子流传下来的古老的仪式和习俗;他们通婚,并在婴儿期订婚他们的孩子;他们没有参与任何阴谋或阴谋(谁听说过叛徒的打火机?);他们没有犯本国法律的罪行(不存在谋杀性或盗窃性打火机的情况);简而言之,尽管他们表面上动荡不安,但他们仍然是一个高度道德和反省的民族:他们彼此之间拥有与犹太人一样多的传统习俗,并且至少在身体上,甚至不如山丘一样古老。和街道一样古老。他们的信条是,在没有公共费用的情况下,第一盏路灯照亮了真正文明的第一缕微光。他们在异教徒神话中直接追踪他们在大众尊严中的存在和崇高地位。并认为普罗米修斯本人的历史不过是个寓言故事,其中真正的英雄是打火机。
