Hi
Everyone
And welcome back to britain under the microscope
欢迎回来闲话英伦
Hi Online
Hi laily
Hi everyone
So you know online
Our favorite course is that
名著四合一
Yes Right
I really really enjoy making that
And we're actually making another one
Yeah says where both david readers
And we both read quite a bit of classics and literature
And all that and we talked about little shakespeare a lot
But there's another writer
When you think about english literature
You just can't avoid him
No
So we're going to be talking about chilles
Dickens
Digens by way way
Because us ddkens
Dgons
Dicens most people
Even if they have never read dickens books
They've heard of that name
What is it to british people
When just average british people hear the name
Child's dicks
Well it depends to be honest
So i would say that one of these most famous books is around christmas
A christmas cow 啊
圣诞颂歌
So we normally associate chilel's dickens with christmas
Or we also associating with victorian poverty
All of the struggles of indudustrialization and deicens and the people that are affected to be honest
It is like
When you think about deicks
It's not like happy go lucky idlic england
We know 哎
It's suit covered children
That's what what i'm pictuturing extly tly
When you think a chilles dickins
You
You think of fok
You think of grey skies
You think of coal
You think of pollution
Childlabor
Child labor
Yeah
But he's still one of these righers
That everybody knows about
And even though that i would say that many british people haven't read chilles dickins
It's one of those riders isin it
It's like we know a story
Which is couldn't be bother to read them
Well exactly
And one of the reasons is that i would say almost every year um every two years is
Is always a new adaptation of a dickens novel
That is another thing i want to mention in britain
Like really when you watch tv from time to time
You could see the thing popping up anything uh hannoment it that looks familiar
And that you realize is dickins is a dickins adaptation
Exactly 嗯
And some of these adaptations are really really good
And they have some really famous actors in them
嗯 Okay
So in these
Two episode
Let's talk about charles stickenyes
嗯
So first of all i remember
Forgive me if i'm wrong
He was born in the beginning of nineteenth century
That's right
嗯
Child's stikks was born on the seventh february eighteen twelve
嗯
In polesmooth england was the background
Like his historically because you mentioned victorian england
Well
Chilelsickins was born before the victorian ever so porsmoh h was a port
And it's still the base of the world
Navy um and eightwtwelve
We was still fight in napolian
So he was born in this area
So as with any port
It was fill with people from all over the world now fill with different characters
Now dickens wasn't from a poor family
But also not rich family
Well his
His family was supposed to be middle class
He was a second of eight children
But the family had a lot of financial difficulties
It so like they got into debt or something yes so when dickins was previous old
His father john dickins was in priprison debt
So 有点家道中落
中文就说家到中落就you were originally quite well off and because of series of event ends
And you just got into hugely into debt
Yeh
Yeah back
Then if you were in debt
You are in prison until you pay the debt
But obviouly is difficult to pay the bt
Because you were in prison
So young child had to leave school and work at a boot black king factory
Boot black king
Boot black king factory is somewhere that makes boots look more black
Oh
Sort of like e or whawhaver ver is like polish
Polish sh lish
And this was a real shock
And the house se condition and the al win justice
That he observed during his time would later influence his novels
Oh
That's why he wrote about child labor
Because he was a child labor
Exactly what's that illegal back
But obviously wasn't illy no child labor was totally okay
It was so absolutely fine
And that really became a recurring theme
Yes like indecensous novels
Yeah
But eventually he did return to school
And he began working as a law clock at a journalist
Ah
But i see that's probably when he started writing
Exactly so he was always a writer and been a journalist
Yeah
It gave him a collect unique style
Because one of the you knows about about dickins is that there's such an eye for detail oyeah so much
So that his books are so long exactly um
But he also it gives him a very clear understanding of social issues of the time as as well he's very much of i don't know if this is the right way to to categorim
But he was very much a social realist in that sense
Yes yes
There was no like fantasy in his world
No
It's mainly about the harsh reality exactly so in eigheighthirty
Thirty six dickens published his collelection of keketches
Sketches by both
And
And was the start of his literary career
Um
I see many famous writers actually started off as a journalist
It was a clealists
But this is how he started
Which was the book that got him the fame was
Was the ked ked with papers
The pik wit papers 啊
So this was a comic novel
And it became so so popular
One of the things about chilelstickks is that he used to publish ing magazines
So every week those a new chachater
Ah
就是那种连载
Ah Yeah
That was the in like one print media was still really in his haydays
And that was the thing that you have like a column basically
Or you have like a specific section that dedicated to your stories
Yeah 嗯
You think about shothohomes exactly shothohomes would published in a magazine um first stival
And i think that's probaby why dickins to us sometimes can feel very very dense
Because originally it was meant to be published on a weekly basis
So you read short extractive it
I see read a expter of it
And then you wait until the next week to carry on reading it
It's almost like modernate so pppppa exactly yeah
So it's not supposed to be all so dense in unthick book
It's just a little bit of it
Every week exactly you think about it so pop for if you coucouldn't watch it all in one sitting
If you binch watch it kind of yeah
It could be pretty difficult so filt with lots of life's challenges exactly all right
So how about we talk about a few of the classics
That are very well known in britain
Yes
I would say that one of his most famous books is all of a twist
And
And do you know the translation to translate name in chinese for all of her twist
No
This is just a name
Right we translated into 布都孤儿foggy town orphan foggy town
Often yeah
Foggy towns obviously fogial london
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh Yeah
That's telling it as it is well
That pretty much explains the entire book all of a twist is the story of a young
Often who is trying to survive in london's 's world
World
So the reason why it struck call when it became so famous is that it really focused on what poverty was like and the plight to the poor in victorian society
And also dickins was amazing apportrain characters
So you had faggand who was kind of a sinest criminal was saying mater mine
But he wasn't really master minind
He was more like a gangn leader of children
And then you have bill
Sighkes and nancy and think this goes back to his days of just observing
And also and ourourournism
Yeah
The which reres res 'd observe different characters in society
What exactly and it really focucus people on the idea of child labor and child exploitation 就是brosure 儿童
Yeah
I'm wondering
Whether his audience were more the upper class that were educated
And it could read and leararn that part part of society they don't know
Or is it just for common ers like who actually
But they wouldn't be able to yeah
Come on you call youra commoner
But now you highly educated back
Then the child labor is they couldn't read right they were illiterate or close to yeah
They could literate
Probably read a little bit
嗯 But no
The averatator was the middle class um middle you had up per probably well
Exactly well
Queen vittoia also light read in child's dekends as well
But germany it was the middle classes
Because they had the time
They also had the money to buy the magazines
And this is also the time of commuting
It's when people were getting on trains and going to work
So what would you do
If you're siting ting on train
You probably read chilles
Dikks
It hasn't really changed that much like nowadays people still looking on a phone
A lot of them or reading
嗯
Like long novels
Exactly 嗯
