초록
Oliver Twist has a distinctive characteristic meaning a pastoral atmosphere in a horrid city. Dickens uses this contradictory strategy of novel writing in order to show Victorian people's ambivalent attitudes toward the pastoral. The contradictory strategy, in Bakhtin's words, “the struggle of genre” meaning a genre in a genre, is shown by the outlaws and their leader Pagin in the criminal underworld of London. In Oliver Twist, Pagin is interpreted as a shepard for his lamb meaning the pickpockets. Pagin cares the petit criminals, gives them boarding and sleeping places and, educates the skills for their survivals like a shepard caring the cattle. Even though there are many critics emphasizing the immorality of Pagin, he seems to be a protector for the loafers who is destined to be executed in a jail. The reason why Dickens uses this pseudo-pastoral is he wants to show the real situation of his society, and to ask for the awakening of his contemporary people.
Abstract
Oliver Twist has a distinctive characteristic meaning a pastoral atmosphere in a horrid city. Dickens uses this contradictory strategy of novel writing in order to show Victorian people's ambivalent attitudes toward the pastoral. The contradictory strategy, in Bakhtin's words, “the struggle of genre” meaning a genre in a genre, is shown by the outlaws and their leader Pagin in the criminal underworld of London. In Oliver Twist, Pagin is interpreted as a shepard for his lamb meaning the pickpockets. Pagin cares the petit criminals, gives them boarding and sleeping places and, educates the skills for their survivals like a shepard caring the cattle. Even though there are many critics emphasizing the immorality of Pagin, he seems to be a protector for the loafers who is destined to be executed in a jail. The reason why Dickens uses this pseudo-pastoral is he wants to show the real situation of his society, and to ask for the awakening of his contemporary people.
