He describes an overall picture of the 19th century of England for our readers, especially London. Great Expectations is one of Charles Dickens’s novels which represents the inpidual development and growth and disclosing the moral destruction and degeneration brought by the overwhelming social environment to people. Plenty of critics study this novel from very different perspectives.
