    Conclusion
    Dickens seems to be a substantial literary fact of the Victorian Period. We can not think of Victorian England without him, without his help, and to see Victorian England through his eyes. His vision is part of way, we actually define Victorianism. The very reputation of Victorian England is in large part a Dickensian matter, our very construction of Victorianism owes much to Dickens. Yet Charles Dickens was already a quarter century old, his fame established with Pickwick Papers and Oliver Twist before Queen Victoria come to throne and he died over 30 years before end of her reign. His contrived, unnatural plots and artificial and exaggerated situation of Dickens plays usually leave a reader unsatisfied. But nothing touched me and moved me as much as Charles Dickenss childhood.

Through Oliver Twist, Nickolas Nickleby, Hard Times, we can realize that here are introduces childhood, also education, exploitations, effects of Industrial Revolution. Real description of the places; very rich in the use of adjectives to describe setting and peoples aspect instead the characters are flat ones without any psychological description, and they are symbols of human qualities of human vices. The author speaks through the childrens voice, he mixes comedy and tragedy. Comic details are important to underline the negative aspects of contemporary situation, and the negative effects of the Industrial Revolution in ironic way. Dickens, as a writer who saw the world through his eyes of child and whose work has numerous moving and amazing examples of child figures. No one thinks first of Mr. Dickens as a writer. He is at once through his books, a friend. He belongs among the intimates of every pleasant- tempered and large-hearted person. He is not

He keeps holiday with us, he helps us to celebrate Christmas with heartier cheer, he shares at every New Year in our good wishes for, indeed, it is not in his purely literary character that he has done, most of us, it is a man of the largest humanity, who has simply used literature as the means by which to bring himself into relations with his fellow-men.
