| Article Name : | | | STRENGTH OF CHARACTER NANCY’S CHARACTER IN DRAMATIZING THE CONFLICTS AND TENSIONS IN ‘OLIVER TWIST’ | | Author Name : | | | S K Mishra | | Publisher : | | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | | Article Series No. : | | | GRT-6609 | | Article URL : | |  | Author Profile View PDF In browser | | Abstract : | | | Women characters in Dickens have often been seen as inadequate and have remained caricatures or types. Nancy, I shall argue, is an outstanding exception in Dickens’ early fiction. She is one of the most powerfully conceived and created characters in Dickens. She is the only character in ‘Oliver Twist’ who develops, or in E. M. Forster’s phrase, acquires “roundness” during the course of the novel. . Nancy becomes admirable in the quality of her suffering of her struggle in the face of a fate that she clearly recognizes to be inevitable. | | Keywords : | | - Victorian,Morality,Underworld,Suffering, Street children,Tragic Strength,
